Swung by and got some steps in this past Sunday and I have to admit, it's my favorite Farmer's…read moreMarket in San Diego. Only one thing I don't care for and that's the parking. But that's pretty common these days, not just for Farmer's Market, but parking in general. Lots of food options and I don't just mean vegetables. You could pretty much have breakfast and lunch here. And enough so you can skip dinner. I almost wonder if there are more food options than other vendors. I didn't count. Don't get me wrong - still a lot of Knick knacks and other items to browse/buy other than food - maybe even something like I grabbed - a western cowboy hat. Finally got me one. Sorry - no pics. Anyway, it's busy, colorful, and fun, and it has that San Diego weekend energy. Definitely check it out if you like fresh food, people watching and spending more money than you meant to.

**August 2026: Sunday Morning Late Morning Visit**…read more I love visiting farmers markets, and this visit was a success. I was able to pick up some fresh baby blue eucalyptus plants for my shower, as well as lavender oils to really help with my aromatherapy relaxation routine at home. The Hillcrest Farmers Market happens every Sunday from 9am to 2pm and there are usually well over 150+ vendors set up along University Avenue and Normal Street. Parking is a bit tricky, but we were very lucky to find a spot in a nearby neighborhood. Once we got in, we found a great assortment of meats, sauces, dips, and more. In a somewhat hidden part of the trail, there's a bunch of exotic food options to consider, including flavors from Africa, as well as some tables where you can sit and enjoy the food. There are also flowers, veggies, eggs, honey, and pretty much anything you'd be interested in. I think we shopped for about 45 minutes as casual browsers, and it felt like a good amount of time to get a feel for the place. It's a great spot to support small businesses.

The OB Farmers Market is definitely a vibe. It's jampacked with local restaurant stands, vendors…read moreselling handicrafts and thrifted items and a few stands that sell farm fresh produce, baked goods, potted plants, and flower bouquets. There are always a few local musicians at either end of the market strip and if you walk down by the water, there's usually a big group of people in a drum circle and dancing. Parking is brutal. Best to get there at the beginning of the farmers market for a better chance of finding a free spot and not having to pay for one of the lots as they can be quite pricey.

Apparently everything is from local small farms around San Diego and possibly a few things owner made. A lot of items didn't have pricing which for me prevented me from buying more but I actually just went shopping elsewhere before stopping in so I would've bought more. The fruit and veggies are not all nice and shinny like at the grocery stores, these items look to be straight from a farm imo. Don't expect to find everything in perfect shape or that you don't have to look through the fruits or veggies and if you know, you know! Their items were a bit high but it's worth it when it comes to our struggling farmers!!! I'll buy more from them from here & out.

We stop by The Fruit Stand every week for our fruit and vegetable run, and it has become a beloved…read morepart of our routine. They consistently carry some of the best-quality produce currently available from San Diego and the surrounding areas, thoughtfully curated with real care. Misses are rare, and when something isn't right, they always make it right. What really sets this place apart is the knowledgeable team. They can tell you not just what something is, but where it's from, why it's special, and even how best to prepare it if it's new to you. They know which watermelon varietals are sweetest (and why), which tomatoes are best for different uses, and how to guide you toward the best choice of the day. We also appreciate the simplicity of the space. It's clear the focus is on quality produce rather than unnecessary overhead or décor that doesn't add to flavor or nutrition. We come in knowing our weekly staples, and we always look forward to discovering a surprise treat or seasonal treasure to add to the basket. We recently lived in Spain for a year and deeply miss the fruterías found on every corner, places that genuinely support daily health and well-being. In the U.S., truly good produce can be harder to find, with so much emphasis on mass production and appearance over flavor and nutrition. The Fruit Stand comes as close as we've found to that European produce experience. We're grateful this place exists and grateful for the care they put into what they offer. Thank you for being here--and we'll see you next week.

Review is just for today, otherwise I love this market…read more Last year Mother's Day there were tons of booths and it was a great way to spend the morning. This year most of the vendors stayed away. We decided to get crepes from a place called La Creperie because it was one of the only choices. The man was extremely nice. But I was surprised to see that he was using a blow torch on the crepes instead of sautéing things first. My savory crêpe with eggs cheese and mushrooms was essentially like a quesadilla and the mushrooms weren't really cooked. Did it eat very much of it because it was not that savory. The dessert crepe we got was a little better. But I would not come to this booth again. Looking forward to coming another time when there are more of the vendors I like here!

I was shocked that this place wasn't PACKED with people!!!…read more The location is beautiful and cool, due to the breeze from the waterfront. The booths are great. So many food choices. We loved the live music as well. Very enjoyable. Saw kids and dogs enjoying themselves, which is always such a great vibe! Our favorite place was "El Reaper Hot Chicken"! My pre-teen had the hot Cheetos fried chicken over fries. She absolutely loved it. Her Dad is a professional Chef, so she knows good food. I had the ghost pepper chicken, and be warned that it is HOT!!! Their chicken itself is so well seasoned and juicy. Almost all places don't season their fried chicken enough. It was nice to have something incredibly tasty for a change! The word needs to get out there, because this place could be such a hot spot to hang out at on weekends! Highly recommend checking it out!!!

I found out then that this is another recent regular market where you can find cool items like clothes or accessories for your dog, whimsical hats, handmade candles and jewelry and many more. Very pleasant to see people and pretty things on display. Even better to stop by for a coffee and a pastry and just people watch doing the shopping. Not super huge but enough number of vendors to make it interesting.

SO GOOD!!! Only bought fresh raw fish, did not try any of the cooked food, but what I got was all…read moreexcellent. If you do buy a whole fish and don't want to clean and gut it yourself, there is a stall at the very end of the pier that will do it for you for about $1/lb (up to $20/fish). I bought a big slab of bigeye tuna (4lbs), and some smaller (but still large) filets of ono and halibut (maybe 3 lbs each?), and 3 rock crabs (2 female,1 male -- loved that I could choose crab sex). Total cost of the fish was $76, and the crabs were $13. For that amount of fish, I think it's really great. I prepared the tuna as tataki and poke. I checked with the seller than the fish had been frozen on the fishing vessel to kill parasites so it was good to go. INSANELY delicious. If I were hosting a big party, I would absolutely go for a whole fish. The whole halibuts were about 7-14 lbs each (for $13/lb) and the whole tunas were about 20 lbs each (for $3/lb!!!) in Dec 2024.

While wandering around San Diego by car, I happen to stumble upon this wonderful little farmers…read moremarket! I was incredibly impressed by the various businesses that popped up here to make this market, especially the prepared food foods, and food trucks. Almost everything was represented and seemingly done really well, but I caught my eye had to be the Hawaiian specialties and the grilled skewers. Unfortunately, I had just eaten and wasn't in the mood for a bite, but I was totally tempted to try it anyways. There was a nice little selection of produce, but I also love seeing all of the local makers and packaged goods that work for sale. I ended up enjoying the chili, crisp and other chili based condiment that were made by a local lady and I also really love the San Diego Pepper Company, and purchase their hot sauce to take home as well. Point Loma in San Diego you are super lucky to have this little market in your community and you can't beat the location next to liberty market and all the great food and drink and shopping to be had there. I made almost an entire day out of wandering around this whole area and it was the farmers market got it all started.
