    The plan: Marla's for a pastry, Blue Bottle for a NoLa coffee. Then the cheese monger. Take a number, get 1:1 service. Then bread. Then the date guy outside on the south side. That's the blueprint.

    Come with an empty stomach to this nice and big market where you can find a good selection of food, drinks and local products. A place you should not miss in San Francisco!

    This is a Saturday only market and I'd go there for the free samplers and festive environment. Eagerly went to this stall hoping it has something to do with cricket - the game!! No it's edible insects

    Amazing place! Perfect for brunch and lunch, loads of organic and fresh food options, just by the bay inside a beautiful historic building (Ferry building) in pier 1! Strongly recommended!

    On Saturdays, the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market includes food vendors behind the Ferry Building, offering up a wide variety of cuisines and delicious treats. Wander through the options then enjoy a meal.

    Great farmers market! The lox at Cap'n Mike's Holy Smoke is amazing, and of course we picked up some Blue Bottle Coffee. Lots of samples, too!

    Cheaper than Whole Foods and lots of different things to try. There aren’t that many produce vendors though.

    This place reminds me so much of the Danish Torvehallerne - amazing place! Especially if you are into local greens, fruits and a foodie person in general, great stores too!

    A must on Tues/Thurs/Sats for foodies. Visit the food trucks, fresh meat and produce stands, or stop into the ferry building for some blue bottle coffee and a waffle, cheese, wine, honey, the works.

    Even though it is touristy, it's also a great food place for locals. Packed with the greatest SF local food vendors, no better place than here to experience the SF food scene.

    Walk around once to snack on samples, then again for the food trucks/tents, and then finally to grab coffee and buy fresh food from local merchants and farmers.

    Great selections of veggies and different items that you can’t get everywhere. I find the producers are very informative about their products. Love it.

    Chef or not, one of the most beautiful sights to behold. From the views of the bay to all the amazing local products. A seratonin rush for any foodie. Say hello to my favorite farms, Tory Farms and Ha

    The pastrami Reuben from Wise Sons Jewish Deli on Thursdays is easily the best Reuben in Northern California. Canter's in LA is the only other place on the West Coast that even compares with it.

    Everything's great. You can go wrong, unless you didn't get a dozen oysters on your way out. That would be an epic fail.

    Early Saturday morning breakfast ritual--delicious food from one of the many food stalls. Primavera, Hayes Street Grill and Hog Island Oysters are my favorites.

    If you are craving Blue Bottle Coffee on those crowded days, head outside to the south side of the market - they have a kiosk outside, as well.

    The highlight of my week when I worked near Embarcadero. Don't leave San Francisco without a visit to the farmers market and grab some fresh produce – open Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday.

    Latte from Blue Bottle coffee (worth the wait and the line moss fast) and a pancake from Prather's ranch = heaven. Happy Saturday!
