The devil's in the details, and Mabel's Market has them down to a T! Their new bistro is absolutely adorable, with so much thought and personality in every little detail. The owner has done such a wonderful job carrying the charming décor and character of the market right into the bistro. The hospitality was excellent, the food was delicious, and we especially loved the crêpe and tortilla. Such a cute and welcoming addition to the area. If you haven't been yet, put Mabel's Market on your must visit list. Come hungry, take your time looking around, and enjoy all the little details that make this place so special. We'll definitely be back! read more

Cutest little cottage turned market moment... like you accidentally wandered into someone's very well-stocked dream pantry. Shelves full of marmalades, jams, Spanish olives, and all the niche goodies you didn't know you needed but suddenly do. And then the bistro?? Adorable. Feels like a slow, cozy escape where you snack, sip, and pretend you live there now. 10/10 would browse too long and leave with a bag I didn't plan on buying. read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Mabel's! I stumbled upon this charming shop last summer while grabbing stuff at the farmers market. My family and I decided to walk around and as we were about to cross the street, out of the corner of my eye I spotted an intriguing window display...of tinned fish! Be still my bougie heart and the cookbooks, totes, art prints, artisanal and local cheeses, breads and spreads! They had just moved from a smaller location and this little house front made it all the more charming. My husband laughed and said it was like Mabel's had manifested itself knowing I would be there that day. The owner (Shelley I believe) was so warm and welcoming. She was sweet to my toddler and clearly had experience as a mother/aunt/grandmother to someone because she charmed my daughter who is usually very shy. I walked away with a gorgeous tinned fish print of one of my favorite local artists, and a tote full of tinned fish from brands I enjoy and others I had not tried before. The selection is vast and really offers so much for both experienced and new converts to tinned fish. Mabel's is THE place to come to for your picnicking needs. Grab a blanket and make your way here to grab stuff. Small sized spreads make it easy, and all you need is some bread or crackers, fresh fruit and salami, chocolate and tinned fish of course! The wonderful people who work here make Mabels Market. Because you feel like you have a friend who is looking out for you; to ensure you have the best experience. So support this lovely business because we all need a little tinned fish. read more

Beautiful ambiance, attentive servers and a unique menu that looked delicious. We enjoyed the cafe during a soft opening period, so looking forward to dining again when they re-open. I did have a chance to sample a delightful cranberry mocktail and some fantastic bread, jam and olives. The menu didn't appear to have much more for vegans, however I am hoping there will be an option or two, once the new menus are worked out. I will say, the menu I saw looked very creative. read more

So wonderful to have this very charming bistro downtown, with its unique and delicious menu. There are plenty of fun drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, and the entrées and charcuterie boards are meant to be shared. The jambon-beurre is just as good as those in France, with its very thinly sliced ham. The Niçoise salad and charcuterie were also excellent. The owner is lovely and staff, although very busy, were welcoming! I will definitely come here again! Also after lunch, the attached store is a great place to browse and shop! read more

Delightful shop owner Shelly was hand painting the gift bags, gave great recommendations on tinned fish, fresh baked bread, jams, honey, vinegars, oils. Bistro will be opening in the back in April 2026, with wine, tinned fish tastings, charcuterie, waffles, and other sharing plates. Looking forward to coming back! read more

We absolutely adore Mabel's and make a point of going just about every time we're downtown. There are always new and tasty things to try from small-scale producers, but more importantly, Shelley and her staff are amazing and lovely. We're permanent patrons of Mabel's. Definitely worth the stop! read more

Such a cute market! Shelly the owner curates flowers, bread, cheeses, tinned fish and other artisan products. If you want something for a picnic this is the place to go. I picked up some artisan shortbread and they were delicious! At this new location she is working on getting the kitchen set up and serve small bites and more. I really look forward to that! read more

We stumbled across this very cute market while walking around downtown Davis. It has a variety of food you can buy from jams, dried meats, sardines and drinks. They are opening up a cafe soon too. We were greater when we came in the store and were told if we had any questions she would be happy to answer them. We will definitely return. read more

They've moved - they're now at: 222 D Street. Suite 1Davis, CA 95616. We discovered Mabel's Farm Box via Yelp looking at the fancy charcuterie boards and tinned fish...we made a quick dash to Davis right after work hoping to catch them before they closed. We met the sweetest ladies providing the friendliest customer service and showing us all the speciality items and locally sourced jams and other products we we're excited to get our hands on. The two ladies were working on inventory and a new pos system so I snapped some beautiful pictures of the store and picked up some treasured tinned fished I've enjoyed from Portugal (thanks to my goddaughter who resides there). My boss also picked up some great products and even bought this flower wall stand, that may or may not have been for sale, but was sold to her for a great deal, perfect for her secret garden decor. We can't wait to come back in a couple of months when the kitchen has been completed and try some delicious cheeses and provisions! Thank you MABEL for staying open and letting us window shop. The energy in this beautiful store is so inviting...wishing you endless good luck and continuous growth and prosperity! Support local businesses yelp fam...they are the heart of our community. read more

A one stop shop for hosting my book club! I ordered a charcuterie platter as I didn't have time to prepare appetizers. Little did I know I'd have the opportunity to purchase extras at Mable' as well. My table was beautifully adorned with flowers from her shop along side my platter. The cheeses on the platter were amazing and a huge hit! Thank you for the beautiful platter! read more

I had the huge pleasure of walking down E Street and seeing a sign on the side of the street that pointed to "Mabel's Farm Box". I had never heard of this place even though I walk by often, so I was naturally intrigued and went inside. I was warmly greeted by a woman named Shelley. I said hi back and she started conversation by asking me if I was interested in anything there. I said I had never been and asked what they had, and then she asked if I liked cheese and salami to which I replied " I LOVE cheese and salami". She recommended a three-milk soft cheese imported from Italy and a California-local habanero turkey salami. I very much appreciated the recommendations and decided I would pick those up. She first recommended pairing it with a baguette, but then she decided to give me a bag of crostinis on the house! How kind of her! I also decided to get a tasty looking organic sparkling blood orange juice, some locally made lip balm, and a cork screw. While I was there, she also made conversation about they have been around for five month, how they are trying to start a restaurant and are trying to get their beer/wine license and she also invited me to come again soon. I was incredibly pleased by her caring and attentive nature that she greeted me with the second I walked in. I went home and immediately tried out the cheese and salami on the crostinis as well as the juice. The cheese&salami was to die for! I'm not a huge fancy cheese person yet this cheese was so creamy and paired so well with the slight spice of the salami and the toasty crunch of the crostini. I'll be lucky if this lasts me more than a week! The juice was especially good. Very subtle sparkling nature with a nice presence of bold blood orange juice. Very wonderful. I've yet to try to lip balm or cork screw but I'm sure they do not disappoint either. Overall I was incredibly pleased with my first experience with this cute new little shop, and I am looking forward to returning! read more
