The Original Farmers Market

It’s interesting. There are many stories that you can shop a lot. The food court also has many choices. For Christmas season, you can take the free tourist train. I think this place might take more than 2 hours.

The Original Farmers Market is an iconic and popular place to visit where you can walk around and purchase cool things to eat. I found an awesome stand selling shots of coffee inside edible chocolate coated waffle cups that you can also purchase separately to use at home.

A must to visit place while in LA. It's currently a wide assembly of stores and food shops, with absolutely an option for anyone of your companions. I particularly loved the place with the "empanadas" and then the "waffle coffee shots". It was much fun to visit that store entirely devoted to hot sauces!!! lol, check the pics attached. Make sure you include this venue in your next visit to LA.

It used to be a farmer's market, but now it's more like the food court of The Grove. It has lots of small cafes, specialty food shops, and specialty gift shops. It's a good place to get gifts or souvenirs. Be careful where you park- the parking validation to visit the "Farmer's Market" area is separate from The Grove, and both are separate from the little area across the street with the Container Store and a few other shops.

I know what your thinking..."that place is for tourist's. Yes, Yes it is but it is also a great place to go when you're not sure what you want to eat. The truth is you can just about satisfy even the most picky eater's can find something they will enjoy!

A great location if you are looking for your weekly produce run or a bite to eat. There is a wide variety of food stalls ranging from savory (Nonna's Empanadas) to sweet (The Magic Nut). Have fun exploring the sailes and stalls.

Haven’t been to LA for almost 3.5 years (pre-panademic). So I knew I had to come back and visit!! Free 90 minutes parking at the farmer market lot, if you make a purchase.

If you come here on the weekends, come early! Parking is crazy during the holidays!

This is the original indoor farmers market, in Los Angeles. Near CBS studios. Some of these vendors have been here for many many years. Good choice of food. I have a toy land, the oldest toy store in Los Angeles.

Wildflora is like being in a shop full of glorious aromas. Everything to upgrade a bathroom or bedroom with that touch of nature, scents and romance.
Pickles has a $3 sampler plate. I never knew pickles could be so good!
MaGee's makes the best corned beef sandwiches and smooth and creamy.

Lots of food choices, Lots of shopping choices. Right next to The Grove. Validated parking for two hours if you buy something.

The milieu is informal and basic. The vibe is inclusive. The food choices are diverse and delicious. The original Farmers Market at 3rd and Fairfax is my favorite place to eat out in Los Angeles. I give it my unqualified recommendation.
