""I've had people who have been coming here for 20 years come up to me and tell me stories about how things were, and what they love about things now," Morris said. "It's a place where you might be by yourself, but there might be someone else on the other side of the table. I've seen people start chatting over a pint or over a fish and chip, or game. [The Public Market] is built for that kind of communal dining sharing experience.""
"Founded in the late 1980s, the Emeryville Public Market offers almost 20 fast-casual stalls, with options like Peruvian street food, house-made BBQ, Korean-Japanese fusion, among others. Phaedra Morris, general manager of the Public Market, strongly feels that the international, fast-casual food hall is no less than a community hub. Between weekly brainstormer trivia, Wine Wednesdays, live music and drag queen bingo, Morris feels that its long-standing presence has deepened its roots in Emeryville."
Emeryville Public Market, founded in the late 1980s, houses almost 20 fast-casual stalls offering Peruvian street food, house-made BBQ, Korean-Japanese fusion and other international cuisines. The market anchors community life with weekly events such as brainstormer trivia, Wine Wednesdays, live music and drag queen bingo, and cultivates casual interactions among patrons. Longstanding presence fosters deep local roots and regulars share memories of change over decades. Two new vendors, Alma y Sazon and Demiya, recently joined, with Demiya focusing on yoshuku—Western-inspired Japanese cuisine—aiming to correct misconceptions about everyday Japanese food and expand regional presence.
