Everything Else

The most quintessential Rochester Saturday morning activity. Hundreds of local farmers & artisans, coffee shops, talented buskers, great people watching, and the best breakfast empanada you'll ever eat. Parking is tricky, it's best to check the surrounding streets for spots before the lot.
