Pier Market Food Stand

I was walking around Pier 39 and stumbled upon the Pier Market Stand. I was taking one of my friends from Texas around the Bay Area and wanted him to try unique food items that he cannot really get in Texas. We bought the clam chowder bread bowl and he absolutely loved it. It's creamy, hearty, savory and oh so good. It's not too expensive also costing less than $12 which is hard to find nowadays in the Bay Area.But parking around Pier 39 is very expensive. So it makes that bread bowl more expensive lol. But if you are in the area and looking for a quick snack or even a meal, I highly recommend the Pier Market Stand's clam chowder bread bowls. Very very delicious! They also have a restaurant but I haven't tried it yet and will definitely try it soon.

We decided to play tourist this weekend and enjoyed a nice city day in SF! We wanted to grab a quick meal before our GoCar rental and saw Pier Market Stand while checking out the wharf and the sea lions. Their options were decently priced and sounded promising. I also like that they have a display by the cashier of the different menu items because I'm a visual thinker/decider.My boyfriend and I ended up ordering the calamari and chips, the shrimp and cod ceviche, and a small chowder. Our whole meal was just about $30. Honestly a steal for bay area - especially in such a touristy location! The servings look small but we were full after and didn't even finish our fries (even though I wanted to because they were delicious). I think because the stand is takeout only, they're able to be a little more affordable. They actually have a sit down restaurant as well with a larger menu right next door if that's what you're looking for. For something quick, this stand hits the spot, plus there's plenty of benches to eat at right across the stand and all around the wharf.Now for the food - my boyfriend and I both liked the ceviche the most. It could use a pinch more salt, but otherwise the flavors were great and so was the fish texture. The calamari and fries were good too. I'm not sure why, but those fries really hit the spot. They were nice and crispy, just the way I like them. The chowder was on the creamier side and could use a little more salt/umami, but honestly I prefer it not salty enough than too salty, so I can always add it myself if needed. There were a few big clams in there too so that was a treat. Tldr; if you're looking for a quick tasty seafood bite that won't break the bank, check this place out!

The fish and calamari were fine but I didn't care much for the fries. The sauce carried the fries. I can't give a completely accurate review of the taste since I got this closer to closing while it was freezing outside.I really like the visual displays they had. It made choosing what to get much easier.Note: Many of the restaurants in front and this one are all owned by the same company/ group.

this was our first time visiting here so we opted for the to go stand because there was a little hefty line for the place. Now i had no real expectation for the place but they shut me up in the best way possible! This place has to have the BEST fish n' chips i've ever had. & i've got to quiet a few places out here in Sf, Monterey, Santa Cruz,& wherever else but this one. was soooo delicious! i can't wait to go back here & actually dine in because we ate this with our other couple friends on a bench right on the pier & the food, the vibes, the company.. it was all amazing. such a core memory so glad this place gave us a chance to enjoy some good food & have a good time. To conclude my long review, 10/10!! won't regret this place Pls get the fish n' chips

I wish I could say this place was great, unfortunately the food was so so, calamari was flavorless. The service was ok, prices a bit high for the quality.

Oh my goodness the clam chowder is so good!! We're visiting from Boston so we eat a lot of chowder back home. We tried the stand because we didn't have enough time for sit down. The clam chowder was LOADED with clams. I can honestly say I've never had so many goodies in a bowl of clam chowder. 100% worth getting. Also it's only $8.50 which is literally insanely cheap compared to Boston chowder prices. We also had the fish sandwich and my friend got the calamari. The sandwich was whatever but the calamari was great! If you need a quick bite this is a great spot to stop at.

I had clam chowder and a hamburger. I wonder if this review counts. Well, I was a pier 39 employee having a discounted break snack. Good for that.

I love how they use sustainable seafood and have a strong commitment to ocean and fishery preservation, the logo design is also very iconic with a nice action shot of a twisting Marlin. Needed a quick bite at 11 am to tide the kids over till lunch and the Pier Market Stand was perfect for us. No wait, food came out really fast, staff was great.Fish and Chips: Fish itself was good, nicely cooked the batter was crunchy, it was just a bit too salty for us. The fries were overdone and almost the same brown color as the fish, our kids normally love fries but we couldn't finish them.Clam Chowder: We got this because we saw on the menu it was listed as " voted the best on Fisherman's Wharf". It was very light on the clams, bacon, potato, and celery. While it had a great creamy seafood taste it was almost all liquid and pieces of pepper. Still good on a cold day but we wish there were more of the base ingredients.
