By  | 

As the food hall craze continues to gain traction, Liberty Public Market has secured its place as San Diego’s trailblazer, consistently attracting the local community and the national spotlight for its collection of gourmet artisan and chef-driven concepts. Having opened its doors within Liberty Station in March of 2016, the evolution continues as ownership, renowned Coronado-based Blue Bridge Hospitality, announces five new incoming concepts that join the over 30 globally-influenced specialty purveyors. Coming this summer, everything from over-the-top donuts to chef collaborations will debut at Liberty Public Market:

San Diego locals and travelers can expect to explore these five incoming concepts come Summer 2018. Apart from the new additions, market visitors can enjoy a variety of culinary options such as a healthy salad or grain bowl at Local Greens, top-quality sandwiches at the Liberty Meat Shop, and artisan breads and pastries at Crafted Baked Goods, to name a few. Market visitors can enjoy happy hour offerings throughout the week, such as a half-off burger of the day at Stuffed! along with a $4 pint of the week at Bottlecraft. Taking advantage of San Diego’s year-round sunshine, the market offers 3,000 square feet of outdoor patio space decorated with olive trees and communal seating, perfect for a quick meeting over coffee or casual al fresco market dining. Liberty Public Markey also has live music every Sunday.
