Gratiot Central Market

Another of the Eastern Market collection of grocers; retailers specializing in fresh meats and seafood. For years we stopped at Ronnie's for beef; Randy's for sausage and Wigley's for corned beef brisket. It still has the same great atmosphere, years later. The aroma is positively addicting. I truly believe I became a butcher for a couple years as a result of coming here as a kid. No matter where we stop or who we speak to we have always been treated like family. While it's ridiculous to mention it, the prices are higher in here. If you don't like that, you probably need to be meat shopping at Walmart. 11/24

I can't believe I never knew this place existed. If you're at Eastern Market, you have to take the trip across I-75 to visit this place. Whether you need to pick up something special for the week or just want to walk around, it's worth a visit.One of the stops sells some of the best fried chicken I've ever had.

Old school Meat Market in Eastern Market. Grab whatever you need from tripe or chicken livers to smoked sausages, short ribs and briskets Central market has it all and cheaper than your local chains. Clean, fast and cut/weighed to order. Looking for that special cut of meat or just some ground beef for the BBQ? Maybe some Salmon too? This place is the go to in Detroit.

One stop shop for all of your meat, poultry and seafood needs too. It was my first time in here. This is quite busy even on a mid afternoon on Saturday. It's teeming with people. Social distancing spacing on the floor but almost no spacing adhered to inside, especially by the order counter areas. There's a plethora of options here and how to pick the best cut for the best price. Probably requires a bit of time to shop around to sure you get a good deal. It's located off the service road by eastern market.

I can't believe I have never ever ever ever ever ever been here before??? Oh well, I guess it's better late than never right? Anyways,, if you're looking for some place to buy all sorts of fresh produce, poultry and meat items,, you've come to the right place. It's a proper farmers market where there's a collective of stores selling all sorts of whatever you needs.If you live in the city,,, or around the close surrounding cities like me,,, this is probably a great place to shop around for your cooking needs. Special order items that you might now find in your local grocery shops, I bet you'll find them here in any of the stores in the Market. Plus its just fun to look around and see what else you might need.I came here to buy some seafood,,, and there was a store for that here. I scored two big baggies of fully cooked crawfishes to serve on my Labor Day bbq get together.People are extremely friendly here. If they don't have what you're looking for, they'll direct you to another shop that would probaly have what you're needing. I definitely enjoyed shopping and window shopping here. Next time I'm gonna do another cook out. I'm definitely heading here for everything that I need.

Good quality meats, but you pay top dollar. Advertise they have wild game, nobody had a clue as to what I was talking about. I'm not planning on wasting my time there again.

Nice haul from my fav butcher shop(RJ meats)! A slab of NY strip, 12 pounds of choice/prime steaks at $5.49/pound! Until end of June, $40+ purchase gets you $10 free at red truck produce in Gratiot meat market! What a bargain!

Great sausages. I grew up in the Detroit area and my dad took us to the eastern market every weekend. Randy's sausages was always one of our favorite stops. The sausage tastes exactly like it did when I was a kid there. I now live in Texas and I'm very glad that Randy's has an online customer ordering for its sausages. Thank you Randy's for allowing me to relive my childhood memories!!

What a delightful experience. We went down to take a pierogi making class at Pietrzyk Pierogi (which was wonderful). Not only did we find pierogi and some Christmas gifts, but every type or kind of meat, seafood, and cheese you could imagine. There was also a shop that had home made cakes by the slice, half or whole. I understand they are open all week. It was an enjoyable experience I will do again soon.

i love, love,love, love this place, been coming down here for years always love the beef,corned beef, shish-ka-bobs, and anything else .... i recommend all the butchers, sea food, chicken, all fresh.... don't go no where else.
