Old Town Night Market in Temecula is really good. It exceeded my expectations as I thought it was going to be like a swap meet, but to my surprise it was not. While small, it was great because the shops and restaurants that we visited were all excellent. We even got to see Dean Norris from the TV show Breaking Bad at the restaurant he owns on the main strip. Nice to see him be able to relax and enjoy himself. We will be back as the olive oil and candy stores are on our list of places to see again. read more

Oh, what a night! It's always great to get together with a fellow yelper friend that shares the same interests. A cocktail, some food and a little shopping. The Old Town Night Market takes place at Bailey's Restaurant on the terrace in Old Town Temecula. It is the second Tuesday of each month. Approximately 30 local makers and curators come out. Bailey's opens a full bar and they have a taco stand on-site. The activities and drawings change, this month a DJ, art and a photo booth and a Halloween theme of course. The market which is dog friendly is something we love. Our husbands went next door to Devilicous to have a beer and took the dogs so we could shop which was a dream. Cara and I strolled the market and got to know the vendors. She picked up an embroidered jacket and I picked up a handwoven bag. Although, we spent the most time with a fun mother and daughter! Check out Sparkle Sloth Studio...I introduced the biz to a few Yelpers already, as they have some fun contests. The make glitter coffee, wine and other tumblers with custom sayings just for you. It's definitely more geared towards the ladies, the mothers and children...but plenty of fire pits around to enjoy the ambiance with your spouse, boyfriend, etc. Shop local folks. #OldTownNightMarket #InTheLoop #CaraandIThelmaandLouise #Glitter #ShopLocal read more

Such a fun place to shop. Something for everyone. You will find a great variety of shops. Something for everyone. Lots of homemade items. There are plenty of one of a kind gems. It's a great place for gift shopping. If you don't know what to give Aunt Ann for Christmas, you will find it here. Go look. read more

Yet another great Temecula event good for family, friends, young and old! And how great that Yelp was there to promote and support this. Trish greeted Yelpers at the entrance with VIP gifts. My VIP gift was the Bang POP Shop cupcake--a super moist cake topped with creamy frosting, churro and macaroon. WOW!!! The best cupcake I have ever tasted!!! We stopped by the booth later and also walked away with a serving of bread pudding. We stopped at Baily's for fish tacos and to eat our cupcake before walking around the market. The market was filled with many unique, one of a kind vendors from around the area. There were balloons for the kids, entertainment, a hoola hoop contest, 2 cute girls performed a hip hop routine, and later improv (which we did not stay for). Good job Baily's and Yelp! read more

This is such a great idea for any town but especially Temecula because there is not as much to do here. I heard about the night market and wanted to check it out. I finally had the opportunity a few weeks ago and must admit that it wasn't what I was expecting. It's located in the patio area attached to Bailys. I was surprised to see such a huge line already formed when I got there. It was a bit confusing at first figuring out if I was in the right line. I already had tickets so one of my friends asked someone at the gate if there was a separate line for that. One side was for purchasing and the other for if you already had a ticket. This speeded things up a bit. Once inside the market area, you see a lot going on. There's a stage, a bar, a couple of seats, and a small food area, as well as the many vendors set up all over the place. It looked like some pretty cool stuff. I just couldn't stay long at each table because of how packed it was. I felt like I was in the way if I didn't keep moving. Overall, great concept and activity to do during the week. I hope that a bigger location to hold the market is in the works. read more

To be honest, I didn't really have high expectations for this because I didn't know Temecula had so many cute local vendors. This night market showcases very hipster and trendy vendors from all over Temecula and Inland Valley. I was able to come home with a shirt that I really liked so I think my night shopping was a success! I'm not sure if the vendors change every time but I felt like there were really random vendors and there was something for everyone. The bar was open (cash bar) and there was music playing on a stage. We utilized the free photobooth and some of my friends did the henna tattoo. I really enjoyed this quaint little night market- all though it was small, I liked the intimate feel to it. read more

Cute little market with a nice variety of vendors. You'll see everything from artists to food to a cash bar...even a DJ. The best part of my evening was inhaling a delicious sweet treat from Bang POP Shop. I sampled their food at another yelp event..but this time, I bought a huge portion! The market is small (give yourself between 30-45 minutes) and you're done. Plenty of time to roam around Front Street! read more

This is a great little art market featuring local artists and makers! It happens the second Thursday of each month and has live entertainment, a DJ, food and cocktails to further enhance your combination night out/ shopping experience. A lot of markets I've visited have at least a few vendors with mass produced products or several booths offering the exact same items, but the Temecula Night Market is different: while there were multiple booths offering the same "genre" of item, each vendor had their own flavor or style. Jewelry, clothing, home items and all-natural hand crafted bath products were all well represented (I know most of us have been disappointed by a "local market" where people are selling Tupperware, mass produced tote bags and lularoe - fine products, but not local or unique). Additionally, every booth we visited had the friendliest people who were excited to share their products and talk about their work. The prices for everything were extremely reasonable as well! It's dog-friendly too! Kermit the Dog and his good pal, Kindle the Aussie enjoyed wandering around and getting attention lavished upon them. Once you've made your way through all of the booths and sampled the goodies on offer, you can even finish your night at a neighboring Old Town establishment. All in all, this is a great night out and I'm so glad the famous Elle and Vin invited us to join them on this adventure!! read more

This market, while on the small side, offers a nice selection of eclectic gifts. There were a few food vendors, including bang pop shop which is one of my favorite cake pop places. It's a family-friendly event with some vendors that will interest kids but the majority of the items are treasures for the discerning adult. Gemstones, one-of-a-kind jewelry and floral arrangements might be what you're looking for. I could not find a lot of Info about the event online, so I'm not sure how often it happens. The next time the market occurs, stop by to grab a drink grab a treat for yourself, and enjoy Temecula at it's finest! read more

The Night Market was a cool and fun activity. Good for anyone that's looking for cool/hip items for themselves or as gifts. The vendors are basically Etsy-type vendors--lots of hipster/trendy type items. There was also a few food vendors-sweets and cheeses, as well as a bar both up and downstairs. A DJ made for a fun ambiance. They had a photo booth and balloon animals, both complimentary. There was also free simple henna or you could pay for more intricate designs. I got the henna, haven't done that since I was a teen! I was able to learn of and enjoy a new activity thanks to the Yelp event. As an attendee for the Yelp Event we received a prize/gift which consisted of items from the vendors, I got a cool arrow wood plaque. We also had complimentary tickets, though at $5 it's still a good deal even if it wasn't free. I was also able to meet other Yelpers and connect with them through the app, hope I'll be seeing them at more events. All in all, this was a fun night, I could see it being a lot of fun with girlfriends for a "girl's night" but it's also perfectly fine for anyone else-families, singles, couples, whomever. read more
