Shopping at Midtown Global Market

Below is some helpful information for shoppers to know about shopping at Midtown Global Market.


Where can shoppers park?

There is a parking lot available between Chicago and Elliot Ave, connected to the transit station. Street parking is also available around Midtown Global Market.


Do shoppers need to ask for tax exemption?

How should shoppers handle substitutions from Midtown Global Market?

Like other Shop & Deliver orders, the member's substitution preference will determine whether a substitution should be made if an item is unavailable in the store and if communication in regards to a substitution has been requested.

Keep in mind, selecting quality substitutions for general merchandise items can be complex. Below are some suggestions to consider when needing to substitute an item at Midtown Global Market.

  • Ask a stall attendant! In Midtown Global Market, stall attendants are a great source of knowledge about their offerings. Let them know the item that the member requested is out of stock and see if they have a good substitution to offer.

  • Consider things like color, material, size, and features like dishwasher safe when offering a substitution. A bamboo cutting board may not perform the same way as a Maple wood cutting board, so sharing those kinds of details with members will help them make an informed decision.

  • Sending pictures of potential substitutions is also a great way to show the member what might be available. Try to avoid pictures of price tags since prices may differ in the Shipt app.
