The Grove and The Original Farmers Market Description
This is where the old meets the new(ish) in L.A. The Grove is an upscale outdoor mall with shops for kids (American Girl Place, Pottery Barn Kids, Quicksilver Youth) and moms and dads (Nordstrom, Apple). In the center is a fountain that dances to music, a source of considerable entertainment for tiny tots. Older kids like the trolley, movie theater, and musical entertainment on the weekends. The Farmers Market, a charming warren of stalls offering food, groceries and souvenirs that has been around since the '30s, is beloved by locals. The food stands range from Middle Eastern and Chinese to Italian and French to BBQ -- everyone in the family can get what he/she likes then meet back at the open-air table to eat together. You also have the best people-watching around: A diverse blend of age and ethnicity can be seen among the seniors, families, hipsters, and entertainment-industry types who meet here.

Kid Tips
Babies: The area is stroller-friendly, although on weekends it can get unwieldy pushing through crowds.
Toddlers & Pre-K: There are plenty of benches scattered around the Grove in case they need a rest.
Pre-Teens & Teens: Everything they could ever want is here!
Planning Notes
- Weekends are particularly crowded. This may or may not (depending on your frame of mind) make the experience more enjoyable.
- A smorgasbord of choices. Before you decide where to eat, really look around. It will be a long time before you have this many options again.
