A little late, but we went here in the fall and fully FALLED out. Hate to say it, but yes -- I'm…read moreobsessed with all things fall. It's truly my happiest time of year. Right off the bat, here's what I loved about this day: Big parking lot Dog friendly Live music A small‑business market Food We came on a weekend in October, so definitely check their website to see what events are happening when you go. Admission is free, but you do pay for parking. You can easily spend a whole day here, so I recommend bringing comfortable shoes, a hat, sunscreen, water, and even a blanket or chair. We arrived during a live band set, but seating was limited -- still such a fun vibe. You can also go in and out if you need to grab something from your car. They were grilling up backyard‑style burgers with sides, and it honestly felt like being at a neighborhood BBQ -- grab your drink from the cooler, pick your chips, add your toppings, and enjoy. I loved it. The pumpkin patch is huge and has every type of pumpkin you can imagine. I'd never seen white or black gourds before, but they had them here. There's a lot to walk around and explore, and make sure to stop by the farm shop for packaged nuts, seasonings, honey, and other goodies to take home. My pup Enzo had the best time -- enjoy these pics of him living his best fall life.

The driver had no clue and kept going. Luckily when we yelled at our 3 y/o to stop he listened and didn't run into the wagon as it was crossing . besides that we had lots of fun , but we left right after that close call.

I liked that they had whole cakes but also tres leches in a cup or by the slice. The prices were fair. They had so many ready-to-buy cake options. They also have a huge selection of pinatas and agua frescas. They have a sit-down area that they call a food court. By the fruits, there's a small gift shop that sells random things like blankets and toys. They had awesome inflated foil balloon options. I also got fresh ceviche here, tostadas, and frozen ceviche. The bad: The tables were all a bit dirty in the food court. The interesting: This is a chain market based in SoCal.

Almost 20 years of medications were never able to help me and my life was going nowhere on them. I found Keith after doing my research in alternative medicine (as recommended by a close friend of mine), and I knew there had to be some other way than medications when I already tried 7 different medications and none of them worked. I was just regressing. One month of starting Keith Smiths supplements, I had finally started getting better and my life was finally getting back on track. I finally got a better job position, started a family, bought a house, and have stability. I look forward to continue to see how far I can progress! Thank you Keith, with love always! ~Kaylah

Delicious meat pies!…read more I picked up these pies at their location in the Escondido Auto Park area. They have parking out front but it looked like a doozy with its incline into the dirt so I just drove around looking for street parking. I do not recommend trying if you have a lowered car. I did not put in an order but was glad to hear that they had many of their items available frozen. They are expensive so expect that. The pies are a decent size with generous fillings. My favorites were the Sausage Rolls & the Minced Meat & Cheese, tasty! Since I got them frozen, she gave me a rundown of how to heat up the pies & they came out perfectly. The directions are online too.

Can't believed they closed. Closest thing to home I've tasted. Wish they were still open.read more

The potatoes were cooked just right and the fruit was nice and sweet. Had a bite or two of their French toast and it was also great.

We came to A Delight of France in Escondido and really enjoyed it. I had the crepe, the French dip,…read morethe French onion soup, coffee, and matcha, and everything was good. The French dip may not actually be French, but they still made it well, and the French onion soup was especially good. Both the coffee and matcha were also worth ordering. What stood out to me is that this place feels a little different from some French restaurants that lean heavily formal or narrow in menu. A Delight of France feels more approachable and well-rounded, with both café and comfort-food appeal. They also have a full bakery, which adds a lot to the experience and makes the place feel more complete. Overall, the food felt carefully prepared, the atmosphere was welcoming, and it's definitely a spot I'd come back to.

This is a really nice clean market, with excellent hot pre-made food. The prices are a bit more…read moreexpensive than grocery stores, but if you want a place that isn't packed and where the customer service is good, it's an nice alternative. Please keep in mind that the bags here are $0.20 here instead of the typical $0.10. Regarding the hot food, if you are a burrito fan definitely check out their pre-made carnitas burrito for $9.99. It is excellent and their salsa is really good. They had caldo de res too, which looked amazing but I haven't had a chance to try out yet. Their fried rice was tasty. The produce was plentiful and looked really fresh. The floral section was OK - better at Vons. We'll be coming back soon.

We have been shopping at Major Market for over 30 years, and it has truly been one of our favorite…read moremarkets of all time. They carry such a nice mix of unique specialty items along with everyday groceries, which is something we have always appreciated. That said, prices have become very high compared to nearby options. I recently compared produce prices with Trader Joe's next door, and Trader Joe's was significantly less expensive. More importantly, the last several times I have shopped in Major Market's produce section, I noticed multiple bagged salads, bagged vegetables, and even some refrigerated salad dressings that were well past their expiration dates. We have also purchased their fresh garlic croutons from the front of the store for many, many years. Recently, though, the crouton pieces were cut very long rather than into normal bite-sized pieces. These were not crostinis; they were the actual croutons. The pieces were awkward to eat and, in my opinion, could even be a choking hazard because they are not cut into manageable bite-sized pieces. I'm not sure what is going on, but shoppers should be very careful and check expiration dates closely before purchasing items from the produce/refrigerated section. I also hope the crouton issue is addressed, because Major Market has been a beloved store for our family for many years.

Escondido has scored another gem in their up and coming dining scene. My husband and I came in for…read morelunch last Sunday (04/19/26). We were greeted and seated promptly. Our server was very friendly and explained a few menu items for us as he dropped off our water. We ordered: The Smashed Cucumber Salad, Eggdrop Soup, Pork and Scallion dumplings, and Kung Pao chicken. First out the cucumber salad. It was so good, I could have eaten my own weight in it. It was amazing. The egg drop soup my husband ordered, he said was very delicious, but as I personally dislike egg drop soup, so I'm taking his word for it. The pork and scallion dumplings and kung pao chicken were so good! I can highly recommend these dishes. We loved the food so much we revisited today (4/26/26). We ordered the hot & sour soup, dan-dan noodles, and the 3 delight fried rice. Once again everything was amazing! The Dan Dan noodles were the best I've ever had! The dining room is a bit lackluster and plain, but I'm willing to overlook that since the food was amazing. I will be visiting Dumplings N More again and often!

Probably I was losing salt and water today so thats what my body wanted, so I delivered. Yelp ranked this place high and it was 10min from where I was so I stopped in this afternoon. This place was busy when I came here and I might have been the only non Spanish speaking person here but I felt right at home. Owner was nice to me and I asked for a fruit cup, he showed me the medium and the large and since I was pretty parched, I went with the large. I asked for mango, jicama and cucumber and hold the watermelon. In a few minutes, my order was ready and it was so delicious. I sat outside on one of their tables and enjoyed my refreshing afternoon snack. Prices very reasonable and not charging me $15, staff very nice and fruit was fresh and refreshing. Easy parking too.
