So many great little eateries in here. Plenty of outdoor seating for fresh air. Everything is made fresh and by small, local businesses. I go here as much as I can over chain restaurants to give them my support!

One of my favourite places to visit when in San Diego!So many unique food and drink options throughout the market, I could easily visit for a morning coffee then and for lunch and finish the day up drinking in the hall!Highly recommend the visit, set in such a nice neighborhood, you soon learn to ignore the planes!

Such a variety of dining options for everyone! All locally owned. Dining, gifts, home and more!Perfect place to meet friends and family.Parks for walking, relaxing and sitting. Off of San Diego Bay inlet, so the water is refreshing.Yes, the planes fly over, but isnt that just exciting? Wondering where everyone is going while you eat Gelato, taste a Stone brew or make a succulent planter?

Love all the food vendors! I wish I could try them all. Clam chowder is one of the best I have had, wish they didnt run out of the bread bowl. Lobster roll was great, but the noodle was too soft, a little bit overcooked in the lobster Mac and cheese. Pasta was homemade, portion size was decent. Homemade sausages were delicious

I love the variety that Liberty Station Public Market offers! All of the food stands are amazing. Some can seem a bit overpriced but rest assured that they use the best quality ingredients. It is a very fun date and hangout spot since everyone can get what they want. There is something for everyone! There is a lot of parking spaces which is convenient. My only complaint is that there is not a lot of table seating in the area, but it is nice to take your food and eat picnic style on the grass lawn near the fountain.

This place is perfectTaking friends here from out of state is one of my favorite things to do. They are always in awe at the food court and all the unique goodies you can try. I always encourage my group to get a few different places and try out things. I love the bar. The on tap menu is always so varied.

Wow such a cool place to hang for the afternoon!! There were a number of amazing spots to choose lunch or dessert from. We have a family of 10 && all of us got what our hearts desired. Pretzels, cheese steaks, fries, tacos, smoothies, macaroons&& ice cream. There was a bar as well to order interesting drinks && a brewery for amazing beers. They had jewelry stands && a pet stand as well. The outside area has ample amount of space to sit in the sun/ shade and relax. There was a cool succulent wall for awesome pictures. So many choices !!!!! It’s heaven in a building.. Large public bathrooms were kept clean. This is a dog friendly place as well!

I did not even know this place existed and I have lived in San Diego for 3 years. Amazing! A lot of things were still closed due to COVID and it was a tad smaller than I expected but still, lots of parking, some great food places to support. Grab a coffee and then take a walk in the park nearby. I will definitely be back.

Such a great place for art, dining, parks, and a bit of history. It can get a bit cramped inside the food Hall but everything else was well spaced. My 2 yr old loved the airplanes flying over. Will definitely come back!

The place is hopping! Beer selection is amazing and the vendors are various. Forced $8 food voucher for anyone that buys alcohol, if you do, keep the tab open with your ID, otherwise theyll keep your credit card at the bar. Had a bulgogi rice bowl at Bopjo, it was good but it was heavy on rice and greens, small fried egg for $11.

Review №13

Plenty of food options, ranging from healthy juices to fries rice and bao.You have to buy food to drink, so go to the bar first if you plan to drink.You have the option to buy a food voucher. I bought food first and still had to buy the voucher to drink.I did, however, discover 123 Organic tequila. The reposado was very nice

Great place for lunch and dinner. Cool vibe with lots of selections. The surrounding area has waterfront views and is a great place to walk. If you like to watch planes the airport is nearby. Other than airport noise, a great place to relax with friends and family.

Great place to get various kinds of food, but sadly only 4 stars because most the merch. Shops were vacant.I know this is probably due to Covid, but just trying to be informative.

Always an enjoyment! Food, drinks, activities, events, music, dessert and more food! For all ages. Family friendly location. Lots of open grassy areas to relax and enjoy the beautiful San Diego weather and let the kids burn off some energy; great for dogs as well. Plenty to do whether on a date or w the kids or the entire family.

This is a wonderful place to explore. It has everything from Thai, Mexico, Middle East, Italy, American restaurants and dessert place and so forth. I love this place - not mentioning how great the food is! The quality of food and its varieties are impeccable! We went here to try new food but never expected to love many of the restaurants. They also offer some boutique. Im not really fond of them since the reason I came in the first place was the food.They have a valet parking that costs 10 buck but you can park beside the sidewalk and youll be fine.They offer some activities as well. For people who date, they have painting store or just simply enjoy the view of the garden. I really recommend this place.

This places has a small selection of food options, including Wicked Maine Lobster (get the Chowder fries), Not Not Taco (not taco, but yum dishes like cumin lamb, cashew chicken, Korean short-ribs wrapped in tortilla), and this popcorn place that has delicious puffs and popcorn.Tips:1) Military Discount on Mondays (at some places, like Wicked Maine Lobster its 50% off!!)2) Walk around the surrounding area after you eat. There are several interesting art galleries and free museum

This is my most favorite place in San Diego. Tons of shops, museums, but honestly I came for the food and was not disappointed. Got lobster rolls, Bao Bar, pig fries from Mastiff, chicken from Bopjo AND tacos from Cecilias. The following tummy ache was 100% worth it.

The place is very eclectic! A wide variety of local small business owned stores and a diverse menu of foods to choose from for a meal. We were looking for a special type of cheese, and the cheese store/vendor had two types from which to make a choice. My daughter ordered an ice cream sandwich and it was huge!! There was more than enough for three people! It was also very good!

Fantastic place to meet up with friends for lunch or dinner. There are several different shops and eateries in this area that make it easy to meet up with business partners or close friends to have a discussion over a good meal.I very much like the beer garden area in the outside patios attached to it. Provides good opportunity to relax and enjoy the surrounding company. The only downfall of this location while eating outside is the jet blast from the aircraft taking off from San Diego International Airport. It’s interesting the first few times but then it just becomes an annoyance.

Who likes food? How about good craft food?I thought so. It was a rhetorical question anyway.I don’t know how, but the first time I went to Stone Brewery I totally missed it. It’s off to the side and has very minimal signage. This place serves all your gastronomic needs, you will be pleased, and find something to consume.The market is a easily navigable labyrinth of independent O&O food stalls, sort of permanent installs of a food truck roundup. All bookended with a huge craft beer taproom.Very baby, kid, child and dog friendly. Just be cool!If there was a problem at all I’d say it has too many awesome options and you’ll want to eat it all. Solution, get small plates and go to several different stalls.And the beer options are a plenty at Bottle Craft.

A variety of individual shops selling ethnic foods and delicacies. Found one special spot with the BEST Burgers and Fries called American Flavors.

Review №66

This is a little hidden gem!! Ive been to liberty station on numerous occasions over the years, mostly for the restaurants that have been sprouting up over time (and Trader Joes), but I never knew there was a public market with food, drink and little shops inside one of the buildings!!! Ive obviously been under a rock!! It was such a pleasant surprise, my friend and I had a great time walking around, having happy hour at one of the bars and eating a Lobster Roll Sandwich!! They have Thai food, seafood, Mexican, Korean BBQ, Italian...all kinds of different desserts too. Take a stroll around here, you definitely wont be sorry, I bet youll find something that strikes your fancy :)

You would have no idea whats inside this place just looking at it. (Im talking about the food court) it just look like some normal building but you walk in and youre surrounded by cafes, dessert places, pizza spots, etc,etc,etc! And they plopped a bar right into the area you sit in and you can also sit outside in its little area with fake grass, tables, chairs, bulb lights strung back and fourth above head, flowers, and it is just a great place. Thats just the food court! Nevermind all the shops and stores they got there too! Ive never been able to stop at any of the shops but from the outside, they look well kept and managed very well. The place is huge, once again, youd never know it just driving by. Do yourself a favor, pull in next time! You wont regret it!

The food is great. Best food we have tried in San Diego on our 4 days here. We ate outside in the garden which is wonderful. ONLY problem, the restaurant is located right off of the end of the airport runway. Planes are screaming 200 feet over your head every 3 minutes. Bring earplugs and it will be wonderful.

I love this place so so so much. I just adore taking visitors to the area here. The food inside has some of the best selections San Diego can offer. The Ramen place is hella legit. The lobster rolls are amazing.The pork buns are to die for. The Cajun food place has some of the best food. The cheese place is wow with selection. The best is the bar. Go there and get a unique beer.

Between 3 and 4 stars. Should be called “Food Court” however, because that’s really what it is - a collection of fast food restaurants... wait- but with higher prices.Nice variety of food available - something for everybody. Open, airy, and clean ambiance. Lunchtime was noisy (that’s fine- this is not a funeral hall) but crowded. They should have more outdoor seating.BOPJO Korean BBQ:If you like Asian then you no doubt like Korean. The basic flavors are great. Fresh made so Yule have to wait a few minutes. A little expensive for fast food but I guess its cuzza the Food Mall that this place is in. Would have been nice to have an OB or ice tea with this. Seating is a bit crowded so grab your table quickly.
