    An absolute madhouse on Saturdays when the farmer's market is happening. Go then if you thrive on the hustle/bustle. Otherwise, go during the week when it's less hectic.

    Nice big trendy market for people that probably call themselves "foodies" and voted for Bernie Sanders

    Visiting for the first time and planning on eating? Instead of getting a large meal at one place, grab a bite or two at a stall and graze through the building.

    I wasn't into the retail but there's some diversity in the food offerings. Be broke , have a cup of Peets and watch the boats come in.
