FAIRFAX, LOS ANGELES –

With its charming Main Street, European architecture, and rich local history, The Grove outdoor shopping center and Farmers Market draws a diverse and upbeat crowd of local shoppers and tourists of every kind.

Organized as a city center complete with street lamps and a small park in the center, the Grove is usually bustling with activity as young professionals and tourists peruse the popular stores and eateries along the cobblestone walkways, or duck into the movie theater to see the latest release.

Those who need to rest their feet can pull up a bench and watch the central fountain water-dance to Frank Sinatra tunes, as a 1950s Boston streetcar repurposed as a trolley shuttles out-of-towners and weekend window-shoppers around the reliable selection of stores, which include Forever 21, Gap, Abercrombie & Fitch, Barnes & Noble, the Apple Store, Barney’s New York CO-OP, and Nordstrom.

The heart and soul of the area, however, is the adjacent Farmers Market.

Once the site of a racetrack and stadium built by the Gilmore oil family in 1934 – not to mention the home of the city’s first pro football team and the site of President Truman’s famous “stiff upper lip” speech – the buzzing indoor/outdoor Farmers Market contains seventy stalls, stores, markets, cafés, and bars encircling an open-air quad where foodies, artsy types, and daytrippers wander the maze of sunny walkways to take in the kaleidoscope of colors and aromas, or pop into a bar for a Happy Hour special.

A revered shopping destination for locals and visitors alike, the Grove and Farmers Market offer a city shopping experience that always seems fresh and exciting.

Tip from Emma:

Look for The Gumbo Pot in the Farmers Market, considered by many to be the best Cajun eatery in town. The drizzled-chocolate beignets and po boys are tasty, but the gumbo is what draws people from miles around.

Crowd

Young professionals, artsy types, couples on dates, hip locals, shoppers, students, and tourists of all ages.
Entertainment / Music

Fourteen-screen movie theater with stadium seating. Hourly performance by the water fountain set to music. EB’s in the Farmers Market features karaoke on Wednesday and Friday nights and live country music on Saturdays.

Check the Grove’s website for periodic free concerts, including the summer concert series. Free movies in the park on summer Thursdays. Annual Christmas tree lighting ceremony and concert mid-November.

Extra with Mario Lopez shoots at The Grove Mondays through Fridays. Much like The Today Show at Rockefeller Center in New York, visitors to Extra can watch the show being taped or be in the background.
Food / Miscellaneous

A handful of chain restaurants includes The Cheesecake Factory, Maggiano’s Little Italy, and Morels French Steakhouse & Bistro. The Farmers Market offers meat and cheese markets, chocolate shops, pastry shops, produce stands, French cafés, Mexican cantinas, delis, and vendors selling Chinese, Brazilian, Japanese, Belgian, and Italian foods.

The Grove / Farmers Market User Reviews

MarkusKublin Apr 12, 2013 3.0 stars A Beautiful Day in the 'Neighborhood' One of the great things about The Grove is that it is a mall that doesn't feel like a mall. Though you are surrounded by high-end department stores and boutiques, being in the outdoors, walking on paved and cobblestone paths among manicured lawns and trees makes it seem more like an upscale suburban neighborhood of yesteryear, complete with trolley car and old-fashioned street lamps. Though foot traffic is sometimes heavy, it is offset by the great chance to people-watch, since the location and its adjacent Farmer's Market attract both tourists and locals from all walks of life. If the Grove's shops are typical to Any-Mall, USA, it's the Farmer's Market that helps to set it apart, with a wide variety of booth-sized specialty stores selling everything from hand-made leather crafts to hot sauce, as well as unique food court options to satisfy even the most imaginative of tastes. On a recent visit, I had a cappuccino at Coffee Bean, shopped for a hat and toys, had a celebrity sighting (Sons of Anarchy's Katey Sagal at Barnes & Noble), and went to a movie. All that worked up an appetite, so we got kosher hot dogs and ate them picnic-style on a patch of grass in front of a small stage/gazebo where they sometimes have live music (but not the day I was there). If you are on a budget, beware. Many of the restaurants are a bit pricey and some of the stores are charging "tourist prices," plus you'll have to pay for parking (though several venders validate to cut down the cost). Though the architecture and landscaping certainly add a lot to its charm, The Grove owes most of its picturesque atmosphere to the usually sunny and pleasant weather Los Angeles is known for. It's the kind of place where you can spend hours and hours, and go back again and again. If that doesn't feel like a neighborhood, what does?

Monica Reason Apr 9, 2013 4.0 stars My Favorite Mall I love coming here! The great food options, variety of stores, the movie theater, celebrity sightings, it's the place to be in LA! It's nice to go on a Sunday afternoon when you just want to watch a movie in their huge, comfy theaters. There's always something to see. There are many food options as well. They have the restaurants within the actual "mall", like Cheesecake Factory, Umami Burger, Wood Ranch BBQ and Grill, Maggiano's Little Italy, Morels French Steakhouse, and many others. But besides those places, you have the wonderful places in the Farmer's Market. There's a great Brazilian place that always has a long line. Plenty of options of every kind of food. But besides the food, you have all the stores. They just opened a Top Shop recently (I have yet to visit but I'm sure it's amazing). There's a huge Abercrombie and Fitch and Nordstroms. They also have a Barnes and Noble, which is good because there are so few left, and it's huge as well. Multiple other shopping locations such as Banana Republic, Tommy Bahama, Forever 21, and many others. I love the variety they have. You can find everything there! I love the ambience as well. They play live music on the weekends. During the week there are Extra! filming shoots there so you have a chance to see celebs, Mario Lopez and Maria Menounos. I've also seen David Spade multiple times walking around for some reason, no other celebrity (still cool though). There's also this huge fountain as a centerpiece that performs water shows as if it were a mini version of the Bellagio's water show. The Grove is super fun for dates or just hanging out with friends or family!

Kate Krasileva Apr 5, 2013 3.0 stars Fun Mall! This is a very charming outdoor mall! It is great for shopping, as it has many popular stores, as well as lunch or dinner. There are often movie premiers or events and the farmer’s market days are great! A lot of celebrities visit The Grove, so you may see someone famous if you go during the week. The Barnes and Noble at the Grove is very large and has some popular author signings (upcoming: Lauren Graham of Gilmore Girls promoting her new book). While it is popular among tourists, many locals love this place as well. Definitely a unique experience and a very fun day out!

legallyfabulous Apr 5, 2013 4.0 stars One of the BEST Places in Los Angeles The Grove is a place I simply adore and will never tire of. Granted, the price of movies is a bit steep ($13 for a MATINEE), I love this little shopping area. It has just the right amount of restaurants and stores. This is by no means a traditional shopping mall, it's a place where you want to eat and do a little shopping. They've opened Top Shop there too! I love it during Christmas, because it's adorned like a movie. The Christmas tree, the Santa Sleigh, all of the metal snowflakes and there's a Santa for children! Plus, the little street car, although I've personally never rode it, it adds a nice touch to the venue. There's food for everyone -- whether you're on a budget or not. If so, I suggest Johnny Rockets which is a classic SoCal 50's style restaurant -- with roller-blades and all. There's Pinkberry, The Cheesecake Factory or one of the many little restaurants in the Farmer's Market. Or you can simply hit up Chipotle. Either way, it's a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon or to go with a date on a random Friday night.

Anthony James Beightol Mar 26, 2013 3.0 stars Good for the atmosphere; not the best for shopping You can't really get anymore LA than the Grove. It has everything a tourist could want: outdoor shopping, trollys, fountains, restaurants with two stories and outdoor patios, etc. As far as the shopping itself, in my opinion it doesn't have the best selection. If you are really looking to shop and looking for variety, definitely go to either the Beverly Center or Westfield Century City. These other venues have all the top brand names, and all your standard mall necessities. The Grove is trying to be trendy and "touristy" more than anything, but that doesn't mean you won't have a fun time, particularly if the weather is nice, which is often in LA.

Amberkaur4 Mar 26, 2013 4.0 stars Loved it I visited the grove for the very first time during my winter break and I was so so so impressed. The holiday decorations were beautiful and the 100feet tall Christmas tree was gorgeous. I loved the Christmas feel. They also have these free trolleys which I highly recommend! I sat on the upper deck and it was so nice. Also, during the winter season, they have snowfall at 7 which is magical! They also have a Santa house people can take pics with Santa. The shopping is great but can be pricey. I went to the forever 21 there and loved it. There's great eating options there. They have fancy places which are PERFECT for dates and they also have eating stalls which are very inexpensive and authentic. Great variety of shops, and eating places. I can't wait to revisit!

amannijjar Mar 26, 2013 2.0 stars More talk than anything The Grove is pretty hyped up in my opinion. It is like any other malls besides its out door. You will have a great time if all you want to do is shop and eat. Besides that there aren’t many options. The couple times I went there I got bored pretty easily. They have a nice waterfall everyone like taking a picture with but besides that it’s your typical mall just out doors. If you’re looking for a peaceful alone time to shop the grove is not the place. The couple of times I had gone it was pretty crowded

Raymond Lee Mar 25, 2013 3.0 stars Quite the scene The grove is definitely nice and different from other malls, but it is often crowded. It's cool that they have celebrities often going on a talk show in front of the fountain, but that draws even bigger crowds! The feel is nice especially at night and the decorations they put up during Christmas is absolutely fantastic. I've only been there twice, but I just think the shops there are too expensive for my taste. As a location to just walk around and socialize, there is no better mall for it. People often talk about the Grove, but I just feel it is overhyped. It won't fit everyones dream of the perfect mall, but it does rank up there.

Cory Anderson Mar 24, 2013 4.0 stars One Of The Greatest Places In Los Angeles The Grove/The Farmer's Market have everything anyone could ask for! Whether you are in the mood to shop, dine, drink, walk or enjoy the sites, you could spend an entire day here and come back the next to do it all again. Summers are an amazing time to spend the day walking around in the open air mall, soaking up the rays and buying new outfits at Nordstrom, Zara, Banana Republic and J. Crew. After working up a thirst and appetite, you have your choice of authentic international cuisine at The Farmer's Market. The Farmer's Market is a true historical landmark. If you enjoy drinking cheap, cold pitchers of beer with friends, people watching and meeting interesting characters, then spend the day drinking at EB's Bar in the center of the market! A modern-day Cheers, the regulars here are like a family, and if you are new to LA (and have a thick skin), then this is a great place to make new friends. If it is your first time at The Grove, get there early for a chance to catch Mario Lopez filming Extra! live every weekday, then jump on the trolly for a quick ride to the always popular Bellagio-like fountain show starting at the top of every hour.

Kimberly Alcorn Mar 18, 2013 3.0 stars Really Unique The Grove is a fun mall to hang out at. It is definitely a little more upscale. There are many star spottings here, make sure to check facebook pages of celebrities because they will let you know if they are making an appearance, this happened once for me with Shay Mitchell from Pretty Little Liars. The farmer's market is definitely what makes the Grove special. I went here with my mom one day and I wish I had more time to explore all the cool stores and food. The Grove itself doesn't have much to it in terms of stores but the farmer's market is pretty great. I think the whole area is pretty historical.

D'Andra Alexander Mar 14, 2013 3.0 stars Oh The Grove... If you are obsessed with shopping and eating way too much this here is the place for you. The Grove has stores from the Apple Store, Zara, Abercrombie & Fitch as well as good ole Nordstroms and everything in between. The Abercrombie & Fitch here is huge. It is about 3 or 4 stories full of men’s, women and even kids clothes all in one shot. If you like A & F, you will probably die going in the flagship store here. The Grove also just added TopShop and TopMan this past Valentine’s day 2013 for all of you obsessed with the brand whose closest store was only in Las Vegas for a short amount of time. Now, all you L.A. groupies can have the time of your life in the two story store here. If you are big on food and a little shopping, then the Farmers Market here also is a huge hit. A lot of tourist as well as locals usually visit this place. The Grove also has an extremely nice movie theater located in the middle of everything. Usually, during winter they use to have snow fall while people were shopping (not sure about anymore, but, you can always check it out if you are in town around that time). I love The Grove personally because I can be outside while shopping and also just taking the day all in. Perfect outdoor mall + food junkie’s place to go. Also, if you want to walk your dog around outside and shop you can do that too. Don’t forget you have to pay for parking on the way out though. Total bummer, make sure you save some bucks for after you finish shopping and eating.

laurenkimmykim Mar 7, 2013 4.0 stars Charming The Grove is a quaint little place that combines modern shopping with old-school farmer's market. I personally enjoy going to the farmer's market area, which is outdoor and has a lot of little food stands where you can get various types of cuisine. Whether you like Brazilian, Indonesian, Mexican, Mediterranean, Japanese, Korean, Italian, American.. they are sure to have something that fits your taste! Plus, you can buy fresh produce, vegetables, seafood and meat. It's a fun place to come (when it's not too cold out, since you're seated outdoors) and just walk around and enjoy the ambience. I recommend it!

Taylor Whelchel Mar 5, 2013 3.0 stars So great, especially during the holidays! I went to the Grove for the first time during the holiday season, which was definitely an amazing way to experience it for the first time! The Grove is a really nice outdoor mall with clothing shops and great food. These include an American Girl store, Anthropologie, Cheesecake Factory, La Piazza (which is where I ate the first time I went there; delicious!), and a movie theater. As the name would suggest, there are a lot of trees in the outdoor area and for the holidays they were all strung up with lights. There was also a santa's sleigh being pulled by reindeer suspended in the air and (get this), artificial snow would rain down periodically on everyone walking around outside! It was absolutely wonderful. The Grove has dedicated parking and a lot of it, and there are elevators and escalators to take you down all the levels back to the ground where the shops are. I'm a college student without my own car here so I haven't been able to make it out to the Grove for a second time, but I can't wait until I'm able to! A really nice spot all-around.

Duane Luu Mar 5, 2013 3.0 stars cool outdoor mall area and the farmers market is nice The Grove is a very nice outdoor mall location, similar to the Irvine Spectrum or Fashion Island for any OCers out there. It features a solid selection of restaurants and stores, so one could easily spend an entire afternoon just looking around at places. The Grove also has one of the nicest (if not THE nicest) movie theaters I have ever seen. Simply watching films there makes me feel fancy. The farmers market is an awesome element of The Grove and I think it really adds a sense of community, since the vendors are from the LA area and are trying to maintain a small business in a big business economy.

Naomi Yiu Feb 28, 2013 3.0 stars All Time Favorite I absolutely love the Grove! I can spend a whole day there and still not get enough of it. It's a cozy outdoor mall, where you can eat to your heart's content, shop till you drop and catch a movie in the grand theatre. You have the option to feast at a high end restaurant, like The Cheesecake Factory, or grab a quick bite from the wide selection of food in the Farmer's Market. Before or after you eat, you can walk around and window shop or actually shop. The stores are relatively the same as those in any local mall but Topshop was recently opened there, so there's one more reason for you to visit. If you get tired from walking, you can simply hop on the double decker tram that will you take back and forth in the shopping center so you can soak in the charming views. The view is especially breathtaking at Christmas, because there are such cute decorations everywhere. The reindeers hanging from above were my favorite last year.

Kristina Choi Feb 28, 2013 2.0 stars The Grove is Pretty Good. As everyone has said and as you would guess, the Grove has plenty of places to shop, eat, sit, and even run into a celebrity--I once saw Paris Hilton in a bookstore (of all places) at the Grove. However, the stores aren't any different from what you'd find in your local mall and the restaurants are mostly pricey. In other words, with more research, you could find more exciting shops and eats elsewhere in LA. But, when you and your friends are being indecisive about where to meet or go to next, the Grove is a solid and convenient choice. The best part of the Grove is probably the Farmers Market. Especially after traveling to Europe, I'm a sucker for open markets of any kind. There is a large variety of places to browse; check out Light My Fire for hot sauces from around the world, grab a donut from Bob's, and try some Brazilian BBQ paid by-the-pound at Pampas Grill. I'm sure you'll find something to entertain one of your senses while exploring the Farmers Market. From my experience, the retail stores don't really validate parking tickets. BUT (and I only did this once), I think that the shoe department in Nordstrom does validate. So if you're not going to the Grove to eat at one of their restaurants and don't have luck finding validation, try Nordstrom. Overall, the Grove is pretty good. But I do prefer the architectural style of the Americana at Brand in Glendale.

Sam Dorn Feb 27, 2013 3.0 stars LA Highlight The Grove, while somewhat expensive, is a great place to hang out, grab a bite, or take a date. Designed and built by Rick Caruso, it features several different restaurants (Woodranch BBQ, Umami Burger, etc.) in a great environment to walk around. Built around a big plaza, in some ways it feels like Disneyland - like a world of its own. All of the restaurants are delicious and the stores there (Barnes and Noble, Apple, J Crew) are fun to explore and relax in. I wouldn't go every week, as it gets somewhat old, but maybe every few months it is a wonderful diversion and great way to spend a day. Take a few hours and go with no plan just to walk around. Generally its not too busy and parking is highly accessible.

David Seidman Feb 24, 2013 4.0 stars The best variety of L.A. shopping and dining in any one spot. If Disneyland were a shopping mall, it would be the Grove. The open-air mini-city of high-end stores features a trolley car, a dancing-waters fountain, a main street with old-fashioned architecture, and a grassy park where musicians play. It’s a clean, charming, handsome place that can suck your wallet dry. The stores are famous high-end retail brands -- for instance, Apple, Nordstrom, and Abercrombie & Fitch. You can eat at branches of other familiar names, including The Cheesecake Factory and Starbucks (inside a Barnes & Noble). Pushcarts offer tchotchkes ranging from L.A. souvenirs to Hello Kitty iPhone cases. I like the Grove. It’s pleasantly busy but never too crowded, its wide streets inspire easy strolling, and you might spot a celebrity or two. (The Barnes & Noble often hosts stars signing new books or CDs). And if you get tired of stores for people with heavy wallets, the much more economical Farmers Market sits just steps away. The Farmers Market has been an L.A. institution since the ’30s. This bazaar’s aisles of little shops and dining spots (a few remarkably upscale, like Mr. Marcel Pain Vin et Fromage) make it a stroller’s paradise. You can have a haircut, get an eye exam for new glasses, take cooking lessons, enjoy live bands and buy nearly anything you can carry: fine jewelry, purses recycled from old seat belts, a copy of The Times of London, a specially engraved picture frame or a 1930s George Raft movie poster. There are even specialty stores dedicated to decorative stickers, coffee-table books and baked dog treats. But the Farmers Market started out as a place to sell food, and that’s where it’s still strongest. There are the places that you’d expect (produce bins, ice-cream stalls) and the ones that you don’t (Light My Fire, a store selling nothing but hot sauces). For sit-down eating, local favorites include The Gumbo Pot’s Cajun specialties and the Mexican ¡Loteria! If L.A. has a place better than The Grove and the Farmers Market for a few hours of shopping and eating, I haven’t found it -- and I’ve lived in this town all my life.

RhymesWithMasti Jan 22, 2013 4.0 stars Amazing Ambiance! The Grove/Farmers market is one of my favorite places in LA. The ambiance is amazing and I love the whole "outdoor mall" scene. There are several shopping and eating options. You can go to one of the fancy restaurants, or pick up something delicious to eat at the farmers market. During the holidays the decorations are amped up and the atmosphere is even more festive than it usually is! If one of your favorite celebrities comes through for an Extra interview, you can be part of the crowd at the shoot and sometimes you even get picked to ask a question! They have some cool celebrity meet and greets throughout the year here as well. Overall an amazing place, don't miss it because you're bound to have a great time!

Christian Trublet de Nermont Jan 11, 2013 4.0 stars The Grove and Farmers Market: Big Time designers, Small Time merchant stalls Explore the fabulous and the farm-style when you visit The Grove shopping center. On the border of Beverly Hills, this open plan shopping center provides plenty of class for all of its visitors and appeals to everyone. You can browse for a new read at Barnes & Noble or shop ‘til you drop at Nordstrom or one of the many other boutique stores on offer. Variety is the spice of life, and this place definitely has its variety with shopping, dining and a theater boasting 14 screen for the film buffs. The real treat is the Farmers Market; a fixed market consisting of various merchant stalls. There are plenty of bars and cafes, each with their own unique style of service, including: Korean BBQ, Spanish cuisine, Mexican, seafood, Italian delis, butchers and your simple American diner, to name but a few. Depending on your personality, you might want to avoid it on the weekend: both the Farmer’s Market and The Grove are a hive of activity on the weekends filled with a mix of families, 20 somethings and 30 somethings. It's a lot slower and relaxed during the week. Either way though, the service is great, the food is fresh, and the atmosphere is buzzing. End your trip off with a treat from one of the desert stalls, but be warned: there’s a whole lot of options! Whether you’re shopping for Prada or home-made peanut butter, The Grove and Farmer's Market has you covered.

jenicafunk Dec 3, 2012 4.0 stars atmosphere kills it I go here from time to time, especially for dinner-and-a-movie dates with my boyfriend. There is a theater, plenty of nice restaurants, and of course, lots of clothing stores. It’s a great place to shop, especially if you want a pleasing aesthetic while you browse. For example, I went on such a date this past weekend, and there were so many cute lights and decorations for the holiday season, like a GIANT Christmas tree, and even performers in festive outfits. there are also nice water features. There was also a cute little exhibit on the upcoming Hobbit movie, which I loved because I’m into that gimmicky kind of thing.

sholmes55 Dec 3, 2012 3.0 stars Decent shopping options, Great ambiance For the amount of parking you think it'd be huge, but it's not. It has high end stores, but not enough stores that I'm itching to come back. If I'm in the area, I might stop by but I think it's more of a place to check out a couple times... not to actually shop at. Barnes & Noble Apple Store Crate & Barrel Indoor Farmers Market Movie Theatre Forever 21 Nordstrom Cheesecake Factory I suppose there is lots more, but like I said - it's more for the ambience and design than shopping (for me at least) The parking structure annoys the hell out of me - seriously makes me not want to come here. Get lucky and you might spot Mario & his team filming for E!

Sydney Sachs Dec 3, 2012 4.0 stars LOVE LOVE LOVE The grove could possibly be one of my favorite shopping centers around the LA/Beverly Hills area. I recently went, and the decor for the holiday season is breath taking! Between the christmas tree and the all the other decorations, the holiday spirit was captured perfectly. The restaurants are also great! Love Marmalade! Also they have a great selection of stores, including a movie theatre, candy shop, and the amazing Sprinkles Cupcakes. This place is really the best!

Erica Demitroff Dec 3, 2012 3.0 stars Very fun! The grove is one of the coolest spots in LA. Coming from NY it was amazing to see this outdoor mall. Yes, although it is pretty touristy I had an awesome time. I shopped at different stores including forever 21, anthropology, nordstroms, j crew, and madewell. Although I did not eat at the farmer's market it was very fun to walk around. I heard that the grove is amazing during christmas time (including fake snow!) so i look forward visiting within the next couple of weeks. I would definitely recommend a trip to the grove if you are visiting LA.

Kenzie Gallagher Dec 3, 2012 3.0 stars Expected more but it's good When I first went to the Grove, I'm not going to lie, I was a little disappointed with how small it was. I was expecting way more stores. If you're looking to have a good shopping experience, I would recommend Third Street over the Grove. However, the Grove is a great place to hangout as they do have some good shops to go in and out of. The restaurant selection is good as well. Christmas time at the Grove is my favorite and there's always celebrities performing or filming something throughout the year.
