San Juan is a small town so it gets pretty packed. Come early since parking is limited. Bring cash since there are a few parking lots you can pay to park if you can't find a neighborhood parking. I could also only find one atm in town. Many of the merchants took cards. There was a lot to do for the kids and adults. There is a alcohol garden and vendors who offer non-alcoholic drinks. The restaurants get really packed. Wear your hat it's usually gets really hot! We will be back next year!

We were excited to hear that there was going to be a festival that focused on clam chowder and…read morecalamari; both foods that I have grown to absolutley love since I moved to CA. Well this was a big disapointment. First of all tokens, tokens for EVERYTHING. While the concept seems simple, it still wasn't proven to be beneficial as many people pawned off their unused tokens to everyone including our group, because we really didn't want anything else and there are absolutley NO REFUNDS on tokens. So $20 for 7 tokens, 3 gets you calamari, 3 gets you clam chowder, 1 gets your fries, soda etc. and 2 gets you margaritas/wine. It would have been all worth it IF the food was good. It wasn't, the clam chowder was really watered down, tasted like it came from a can and the calamari didn't taste fresh but extremely fishy. Not the standards I know, as we love the wharf and go to The Grotto all the time! We love their clam chowder! Crabby Jims also has great clam chowder and Albolennettis has amazing calamari where you can choose buffalo style or garlic. Anyways we asked what restaurant this came from and they couldn't say, and they said that it all came from the Wharf. Yeah right. We ended up walking down sampling clam chowder from our favs, and it was so delicious, not at ALL like the garbage from the festival. One thing that seemed interesting was the clam chowder ice cream, a little sweet a little salty and definatley something to try. I don't think it was worth 2 tokens because the scoop was so small. Anyhoo, we came with a party of 6 and we were all disapointed and agreed that anything going on at the plaza is bust.

I was so excited to go to the Strawberry Festival for the first time but was unfortunately very…read moreunderwhelmed. There's not enough strawberry if that makes sense. There's really only the main street that has food with strawberries in it like the strawberry tacos, strawberry tamales, strawberry pizza, etc. The rest of the streets are just full of assorted vendors and other food trucks. I was expecting stands with strawberry jams, jellies, candy, I mean the possibilities are limitless. I tried the big 3, strawberry tacos, strawberry tamales, and strawberry pizza. The taco line was the longest one at the entire festival and they were mediocre. The tortilla is just colored pink and I could barely taste the strawberry in the salsa and the strawberry bits on top also didnt add any strawberry flavor so it was basically just a sub par street taco. You get 4 per order but really not worth the $20. The strawberry tamale was the star and the only thing I would ever consider going back for. It was piping hot with whipped cream and fresh strawberry on top. There's no filling but it's still packed with strawberry flavor and I went back to get another before leaving. The strawberry pizza was good, fresh made so there may be a bit of a wait. I just wish there was more strawberry pieces and jam on top because it looked pretty much like a slice of cheese pizza with a sprinkle of strawberry. Parking was $10 in the city plaza structure, I recommend going early to get a spot as it was pretty full when we left. Overall I wouldn't go back again but good to experience the one time.

But it was a good time. Nice small town festival with local vendors and lots of yummy local foods. There were two stages playing music at opposite ends. One in the Great Plate parking lot and the other right up at the corner of Central and 10th. As you can imagine central was closed for that entire stretch of road. The Lockeford Sausage was delicious and the El Toro Tacos from the taco truck did not disappoint. I got to sample wines from windmill ridge and Ramon rios wineries. There were also a couple of beer/microbrew spots as well. There was an activity tent for the kids, a produce area so you can sample and buy fresh local fruits and veggies, and even a chili cook off.

This free and family friendly festival has been going on for the past 25 years and is one of the cities most popular events. They have a food court area with some amazing eats, a nice wine and beer garden for those looking to kick it up a notch, there are plenty of vendors, live entertainment, a quilt show in the Community Center and last but not least they have an amazing Custom & Classic Car Show. Not only that but they have plenty of rides for the children, pony rides, a petting zoo and the Wildlife Education & Rehabilitation Center (W.E.R.C.) which brings live birds, snakes and other reptiles to educate people about wildlife. I have been coming to this festival every year for the past 4-5 years or so and I really enjoy it, there are certain vendors here that I like and I'm only able to find them here such as Mansmith's BBQ, Hillbilly Tea and Scampi Shack just to name a few. I love everything that the festival has to offer, there are some really great vendors here, great food and I absolutely love the car show. The car show is not a little rinky dink one either, it takes up a large portion of the street down by the Community Center and I just love to see all the old timers showing off their cars, comparing and reminiscing about when they bought the cars. This is definitely a must if you live in the SJ, Morgan Hill or Gilroy area because it really is a great festival. This is by far my favorite festival here and I will keep coming every year. It's best to come early morning because by 11-12 it's starting to get crowded and it's usually really hot by that time.

We arrived early and wow there was surely a line to meet us. It was pretty smooth entering when you arrive when the event starts. Now let's taco bout how awesome this event was!? We opted to get the souvenir glass with the one margarita drink purchase. We walked up to the margarita stands trying to see the options. One of the bartenders came up to us and asked, do you want to try the best margarita you'll ever had!? I mean who could say no to that, we were like game on! I was a bit skeptical at first because that's a tall order to serve. Once I took my first sip, my eyes lit up and I immediately took in all the flavor. I have to say, that was the best margarita I've ever tasted! It was a perfect combination of sweetness, watermelon flavor, salt, and spicy mix. Big shout out to Red and Aria for fixing a mean delicious drink! I set out to find the best al pastor tacos and I sure found many. So many choices of wonderfully authentic Mexican food. But, it's all about the tacos! There were carne asada fries, al pastor galore, lobster tacos, and so much more! The event got more and more busy as the day went on so we appreciated coming when they opened. We got to go home with full happy bellies, souvenir t-shirts, and souvenir glasses. We'll definitely be back for years to come! Cheers to tacos and tequila!

I felt that was a bit high for no animals and limited rides. Tickets for rides $1 per ticket and most rides were 3-4 tickets each. My friend said the proceeds to go scholarships for local students, that made me feel better. My favorite thing about this fair was the talent show. The kids were super cute. Rides on the other hand looked a little scary, like they came out of the 70's. I admit I'm a bit of a fair snob, I grew up next to the county fair, which use to be amazing. But, this was a cute local town fair.
