NYC has them. They're in some stations in Boston, but many just don't have the space for it. IIRC, they're non-existant in the Bay Area.

There are a couple shops on the mezzanine levels of the BART stations on Market Street.

Civic center station has an open air drug market, but I'm not sure the city is getting much in the way of revenue from that.

Funnily enough, a bunch of the stations I saw in Korea and Japan had 'public market' areas, where they rent out stalls to local/smaller merchants.
