City's market hall reopens after £35m refurbishment
Shoppers have been welcomed back into Derby's Market Hall after a £35m refurbishment.
The Grade II listed indoor market was closed for three years while the work took place and reopened at 11:00 BST on Saturday.
Council leader Nadine Peatfield cut the ribbon to the entrance at the official grand opening as range of traditional and contemporary traders were poised to serve a large crowd of eager customers.
It is expected the revamp will bring an estimated boost of £3.5m to the city economy by attracting more people into Derby.
Peatfield previously said the market hall would "once again be Derby's beating heart".
Shoppers were treated to free tote bags as they were welcomed into the venue.

Longtime Lower East Side Restaurant Pig and Khao Is Closing
Pig and Khao, Leah Cohen's Southeast Asian restaurant, which had been on the Lower East Side for more than a decade, is shutting down. An Instagram announcement stated that the restaurant's last day at 68 Clinton Street, near Rivington Street, is June 22. The lease had been up for renewal, and with the building 'requiring significant investment to remain operational,' they made the decision not to renew. Eater has reached out for more information. Cohen first opened Pig and Khao 13 years ago on the coattails of making a name on Top Chef. It had a dramatic first year before cementing itself as a longtime standby in the Lower East Side amidst so much change in the neighborhood. Cohen has expanded the Pig and Khao name over the years: She opened Piggyback, an offshoot concept, near Penn Station in 2020, with creative spins influenced by food in Japan, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and her travels. Cohen also announced this week that she would be shutting this restaurant down on June 22 as well. It is survived by her last-remaining Manhattan operation: Pig and Khao on the Upper West Side, which opened a couple of months ago. In 2021, it was reported that Pig and Khao would undergo an unlikely partnership, for 'financial and strategic support,' combining forces with the speakeasy cocktail bar team PDT and chef Marc Forgione's restaurants under a newly-formed hospitality group, Apres Cru.

Faicco's Sandwich Shop Abruptly Closes Sarasota Location
A beloved New York sandwich restaurant with a 120-year history has abruptly closed a location. "After a lot of thought, it's time to say goodbye. Faicco's Sandwich Shop will be closing its doors," the company wrote on Instagram of its Sarasota, FL restaurant. The Faicco's in New York still remains open. It has existed since 1900 in that city. "To our loyal customers: thank you. Whether you stopped by once or came in every week, your support meant everything to us. You kept the spirit of this place alive longer than the numbers ever made sense," the restaurant wrote on Instagram of the Florida store. "Running a small business is not for the faint of heart—and truthfully, there were more than a few days that tested our limits. In the end, it just wasn't sustainable. The love was there, but the business wasn't," the restaurant noted. "Still, we're proud of what we built and grateful for the community that built it with us. Thank you for the memories, the orders, the conversations, and the chance to be part of your days. Tomorrow, Saturday, May 31st, will be our last day," the post concluded. The website explained, "Our family opened Faicco's Pork Store in 1900 on Elizabeth Street in NYC. We've been proudly serving customers for over 120 years, and are excited to bring our recipes to Sarasota." According to Sarasota Magazine, the Florida location opened in 2022. The Italian hero sandwiches on the menu ranged from mortadella to chicken pesto, the magazine reported. A woman wrote on the restaurant's Instagram thread, "Very sad news indeed. Faicco's is the best! Grew up with your NY locations; was thrilled when you came to SRQ. So many of us patronized your Webber location, but we're all snowbirds, and know it's difficult to survive the off season. 😢"Faicco's Sandwich Shop Abruptly Closes Sarasota Location first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 6, 2025
