Zia Gourmet Pizza

Located just down the street, at 3311 Adams Avenue, you will find some of THE BEST pizza in all of San Diego. There is always something new to try here, they’ve got classics and some flavors that you may never even have thought would exist! Plan to go either after a day market, or before/ during an after dark market, as they open later.

Burn All Books

Further down the street at 3131 Adams Ave just before the freeway bridge you will find Burn All Books. A cool multi use space filled to the brim with books, zines, artwork, cassettes, and even some vinyl.

Asylum

Just behind us at 1835 Studios is Asylum. A small, laid back bouldering gym that offers day passes, monthly memberships, and gear rental. Asylum also frequently hosts climbing competitions, community events, sales, and climbing workshops. To give you an idea of how chill this place is, right after meeting them during our first event they invited us over to climb and play video games! Check our neighbors out and let them know we sent you!

We know parking at our venues can be limited so heres a few tips that will hopefully get you out of the car, and into the market much faster!

★ Look for street parking and check the posted signage, sometimes timed parking does not apply to weekends.

★ Carpool! Hitch a ride with some friends, save the time you would be waiting for your friends to park and come all together.

★ Use a ride-share service like uber! Uber with some friends to save a couple bucks and get dropped off right where you want to be.

Parking in San Diego can get pretty crazy, and we appreciate you all for finding a way to get to us... see you soon! -`♡´-
