4th Street Market

Walk through 4th Street Market and you may think, at first, that this food hall is on the small side. But there's plenty packed into the Santa Ana market, including around 15 vendors serving everything from falafel to pho to ice cream sandwiches. First, though, you need to stop by Alta Baja Market, a specialty food store and deli that highlights the flavors of California, Mexico and the American Southwest. Then work your way around the food hall, stopping by Falasophy, Sit Low Pho, Front Porch Pops, Pig Pen Delicacy and others, including Chunk-n-Chip for some must-have ice cream sammies. An outdoor patio hosts occasional bands, while Portola Coffee Lab invites visitors to grab a cup of coffee and hang out in their lounge. 4th Street Market is also known for the Foodbeast Kitchen & Studio, which hosts book signings, kitchen demos and more.
