Other options are the shawarma salad or rice plate, Filipino food (chicken adobo, pancit, lumpia, and Turon.) Once noon hits, the lines are pretty long! Afterwards, purchase some fresh sweet strawberries, peaches, veggies, pastries or whatever tickles your fancy. There is also a shrimp and fish taco tent, Indian food, bolanis and dips, sometimes nuts. I love going here on Wednesdays!

West Oakland Farmers Market is open every Sunday 10am-2pm…read more It is right next to the Prescott Market. They have a nice variety of produce, hot food, flowers and beverages. We purchased strawberries, blueberries and apples. We came towards the end of the market and the bakery vendor was selling their baked goods two for the price of one! This is a sweet market and I look forward to stopping by the next time in the area on a Sunday morning!

This is one of the larger farmers markets in the area. Whenever I see a farmers market, I have to…read morebuy some strawberries. And this is the place to go. There's one booth that has California grown strawberries. That are absolutely delicious. The lady who runs the booth is delightful. You couldn't ask for a better setting for a farmers market. This sits right next to Lake Merritt, where there are beautiful views of the water. Parking could be a little tricky, so be patient or ride your bike to this farmers market.

With a couple food trucks in addition to vendors, I've found this to have the most hot food dining options for those who go to the market to do more than shop. This market also has pretty much anything you'd need for a meal. One note, it is so popular that I've seen a tent and a food truck sell out before they close for the day so you may want to go early. There are a few benches that provide good seating, which can allow for taking this market at a bit of a slower pace than you might others. Only note, it can get extremely congested, as I feel this is one of the most popular markets in the Bay, if you want something more sprawling I'd suggest Old Oakland, but otherwise no complaints. Temescal is soundly in my faves!

If you are a vendor trying to sell at a farmers market, do not apply with this farmers market…read more I submitted an application to sell with this farmers market, and they had my credit card on file (to pay an application fee). A few days after applying, I got an automated email saying my application was approved and was immediately charged $235 (annual membership fee and a stall fee) before I could say anything. They charged me this without saying anything or asking me for legal paperwork, certificates, or a product sample. I followed up over several phone calls and emails asking for clarification on what they require to actually be a seller. I never received a reply (even to this day). They just took my money and said nothing. Luckily I was able to dispute the charge and get my money back. For a farmers market that claims to care about "social impact," this behavior was unacceptable. My advice to any vendors would be to find farmers markets that are not quick to take your money and will actually communicate normally.

The Jack London Square farmers market is available every Sunday from 11am - 4pm. It's located on…read moreWater St next to Plank. Look for an area with a row of tents. This farmers market was small. There were probably less than 10 vendors when I got here at 2pm. I'm not sure if I went on a slow day or if there were other vendors that had already sold out and left. If you were looking for some fresh fruits and vegetables, the options here were very limited. One vendor was selling only strawberries and another was selling nuts and citrus fruits. Other vendors that I saw sold honey and hummus. There were people walking around Jack London Square but they didn't seem interested in the farmers market. I felt bad for the vendors because the ones left looked like they still had a lot left to sell. I thought the vendors that were selling cooked food were doing much better since Plank was right next door and was packed with people watching the NFL playoffs. I would say the positives about coming here were the waterfront views. The other thing that caught my eye was how clean the floor was like there was no trash or squashed fruit on the ground that you had to avoid. This was not a farmers market I would want to go back to. It might be worth checking out if you were already in the area. You were better off saving your gas and time by going to the Old Oakland farmers market that opens every Friday on 9th street near Chinatown.

Sometime we will get imperfect produce out of convenience but nothing is ever going to beat local…read moreproduce! If you have time to ride a bike over here like we did for the first time you can make a morning slash brunch out of it! Lots of sweet and savory dishes ready to eat when you arrive! And ingredients you can buy for cooking later. Local vendors have stalls in the back parking lot and surround the ferry building that house more permanent shops. These inside shops were curated by the likes of Alice Waters (chez panisse chef in Berkeley) and are nothing short of beautiful. Be warned there are inflated prices for most things. But you can still find a deal when looking for produce with the farmers.

The coffee, baked goods, fruit, and dessert selection is especially exceptional. The market itself is not dog friendly however, people still seem to bring their furry friends along. Honorable mentions: * Brown sugar latte from Painted Leopard (oatmilk) - incredibly creamy and sweet. Coffee taste was mild and well balanced. * Apricot kefir from Achadinha Cheese Company - Creamy, tangy, and pairs so well with fruit. * Thousand layer cake from NUSA - not a typically easy to find dessert. The layers are soft and delicious while not being too sweet. * Pain epi from Acme - the perfect vessel for cheeses and spreads. Light, crispy, and easy to pair with anything whether sweet or savory. This market is such a fun way to experience the local vendors in the area with your taste buds. Come early before 11/12 pm so its not too crowded.

I plan to come back for more when I am out. The man working at the booth was very helpful with the samples.

Flava earthy with subtle notes from artichoke, spinach. *doubt I will buy hummus again. Like any well known snacks/food. The base is the same. Flavas are variable. Other offerings are possible eats.. Didn't buy any pita chips cuz they are addictive. Eating too much messes with my yin yang-too much fried goodness. 4 stars for hummus, 5th star for service.

My favorite vendors are Hummus Heaven, Fungi farms mushrooms and Donna's tamales. They also sell wonderful Asian vegetables and tons of delicious fruit. They only have one flower vendor with beautiful flowers at an affordable price. Best part is they are very generous with their samples so I always leave here full. Most vendors accept Apple Pay and credit cards. Every Tuesday and Saturday rain or shine. Parking can be challenging on Saturday.
