I love this store more than I love life itself. I've been on the hunt for cute & unique plates,…read morebowls, and other eatery-ware for my collection, and this little shop was an absolute goldmine. A treasure trove for trinkets, household goods, and more. I also bought a bunch of adorable and designed paper lanterns, which are hung up in my apartment. The lady at the counter helped me dig through the massive stack to find ones that I liked the best. It was only $3.99 for each lantern, and the bowls ranged from $5-$25. Great deals, great vibes, great purchases. I'm going to visit again to buy more plates and paper lanterns.

They also have incense of all kinds, including Japanese ones and Indian ones. Guess you can say this is a variety store, but quality of things looks on the upper end. There's also some cute pet costumes that are upfront, especially for the Chinese New Year season. Fun place to shop.

Iconic Landmark in San Francisco!…read more I have been to the Ferry Building Marketplace many times and it's one of my favorite place in SF with some of the amazing restaurants, shops and bakery within or near the Ferry Building. To name a few, Parachute Bakery has some of the best pastries. Lunette with savory Cambodian rice and noodles dishes. Hog Island Oyster Company is the best place to grab a bite to eat like Fish & chips and the oysters never disappoint! Mariposa Baking company is another awesome pastry shop. There's always something going on and to do at the Ferry Building. Free Yoga classes, Farmer's Market, Mahjong Meetup, Artist vendors, Music on the Plaza, and etc. You can even sit alone on the bench and stare at the beautiful view of the Bay Bridge.

I was so glad i tried the pastrami & porchetta sandwiches at the Fatted Calf. i highly recommend those 2 sandwiches with the pastrami as the must try again. (note to self: the Fatted Calf deserves their own separate review) once we were done with lunch, we bought our tickets to ferry over to Sausalito, the ride is only 30 minutes. TIPS: seniors & youth tickets are cheaper bought at the machine. regular adult tickets are cheaper paid as a tap/go along the line boarding the ferry. provided that you have the clipper card for convenience sake. onto Sausalito, clean bathrooms past the park. there were so much to see and do in every directions. we literally walked off our lunch and people watch. check out the expensive yachts dock. i wish i could do some fishing there. overall, a wonderful day spent at the Ferry Building. it is a much busier hub now than what it used to be some 10 years ago.

This is vastly different from the Sausalito location where a customer is actively and warmly engaged. Do the Ferry building employees get trained on ignoring customers?
