South of Silicon Valley, this outlet boasts the largest collection of discount designer brands in Northern California. After you shop, check out the locally loved Garlic Shoppe or nearby wineries.

I like these outlets because if you go outside of the holiday season there is plenty of parking and minimal crowds. This is an open air outlet mall, so you can park close to any stores you are interested in. There are four separate shopping areas (located on four different corners at the intersection of Leavesley Road/San Ysidro/Arroyo Circle). For food, there is an Applebee’s as well as a drive-thru In-N-Out Burgers, but it is ALWAYS BUSY. There is also a Starbuck’s, but it is not a drive-thru.

If you love garlic this is your place. Yes, it's a little touristy but it is so Americana. It's right off the 101 so easy on and off. You can buy anything you want with garlic in it. The prices were a little high but I just love the shop. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They have olive oil, candy, drinks, etc. But they have local garlic and how many times are you in the Galic Capitol of California!! Go for a quick stop.

4. Pacheco Pass Farmers Market
5. Gilroy Farmers Market
A very nice, intimate market, with fresh, local vegetables and fruit. There is a bakery with bread, cookies, brownies, etc. A hummus vendor carries many different flavors, delicious dolmas, and of course pita bread. There is gourmet olive oil vendor. And, a hand crafted soap vendor. Being in Gilroy, Garlic capital of the world, there is a delicious garlic condiment from That Garlic Stuff.
