The Forks Market
1 Forks Market Road
The Forks’ unique history is apparent in its bustling market. Originally two adjacent stables for competing rail companies circa early 1900, the horse stalls were joined together by a courtyard and bridges to create The Forks Market, Winnipeg’s incomparable shopping experience. The four-storey Johnston Terminal, formerly a cold storage railway warehouse, is now home to a variety of unique specialty boutiques and stores, plus offices, a pub, café and The Old Spaghetti Factory, a large comfortable, locally popular restaurant with an outdoor patio.
