We walked to the Ferry Building on a Sunday and it was a buzzing little place with lots of locals and tourists alike. Lots of choice for eats either standing up or sitting down and looking out at the water view. Lots of goodies to consume in terms of arts, crafts and local fare.

Great places to eat, shop, and people watch. Wide variety of things from olive oil to wine, to cheese and meats. Well worth the stop. The building itself is amazing as well. Highly recommended.

we walked on market street to the embarcadero and we enjoyed a great time at the building with all the little shops and had great oysters at Hog island Oyster Co, definetly recommend and a great spot for pictures at Pier 1. Do not miss it!

A good place to visit and grab something to eat at the Market in the old Ferry building. Sit on the quay and watch the world go by.

if you live in san francisco you can shop for very nice selected things for eating and decorating. If you go there just to visit it would seem uninteresting but its just so beautiful that i enjoyed even when i couldn't buy much.

Lots of charming shops offering everything from home goods, olive oils, chocolates, gifts. Nothing too kitschy or tacky like you'd find at Pier 39. Plenty of restaurant/dining choices to please everyone and anyone. Come for dinner and stay... More

Throughout the marketplace, you will find great little artisan... More
