User Reviews for Ferry Plaza Farmers' Market

This is a really, really great farmer's market! I love walking around the Embarcadero and enjoying the fun samples, delicious food and wonderful produce. If it was a bit cheaper, I would definitely give the farmer's market a full "10". Even so, it's a great place to bring out-of-town guests or to enjoy a Saturday morning date. Going on sunny days can be a bit warm, but partly cloudy days are just perfect. And here's another tip - Even though, I'm sure the food is probably okay there, I've experienced terrible customer service at the Prather Ranch farmer's market booth several times and would definitely not recommend going there. There are plenty of other more friendly and super-delicious options to choose from!
Pros: Ambience, Wonderful food & produce, Parking (if you get there early enough - check the farmer's market website for lots)
Cons: Be willing to wait, Can be a bit crowded, Weather can make a big difference so check reports beforehand!

I do a bit of shopping here but the number one reason I go is for the absolutely fantastic mexican breakfast booth at the north end of the parking lot. The food is always excellent and the menu varies from week to week so I always have a new dish to try. My friends and I think it's the best place in the city for authentic Mexican food...It is definately a must!

This is a market for everyone. Go early as it gets crowded. The produce is wonderful and you can get everything from gourmet cheese to fabulous flowers. I moved from San Francisco to the Pacific Northwest a couple of years ago and still miss this wonderful Sat. Morning Market. The only market that comes close to it is Granville Market in Vancouver. A must for visitors.
Pros: great variety
Cons: parking, crowded

this is the place to be seen or see other people on Saturday mornings. I go her exclusively for Aidell's sausage; frozen packs 2 for $10 for the summer. Other than that.. you can get same quality and variety of produce from the Alemany farmer's market. You will get gouged by the prices. Compare. Marshall Farms honey -- 1lb sells for $6.50 while at Alemany, the same honey from another family run farm 1 lbs sells for $2.75. trust me. go for the frozen Aidell's sausage, but save your $$ and go to Alemany's. Besides the hours at Alemany is much better than Ferry's
Pros: Aidells sausage, beautiful rich woman, beautiful poor women
Cons: over priced produce

Many people think of a Farmers' Market as just tomatoes and corn. But the variety here is incredible - though the prices are not that much of a bargain. Still, it's amazing to see all the colors and types of fruits and vegetables. This is a true yuppie hangout.
Pros: Amazing variety
Cons: A bit pricey
