    Sanborn Square is a beautiful green space located sandwiched between Federal Highway and Mizner Park in Boca Raton. There is a stage, portico, a sidewalk lined with Royal palms, and beautiful fountains. During the holiday season the city of Boca uses the space to put up a manager, Christmas Tree and other holiday themed lighted decorations. The square had a moment in the spotlight when in 2016 a local teacher erected a 10 foot Satanic pentagram in response to the cities religious display. The space is available to rent for weddings. It also hosts art exhibits, yoga classes, and festivals. On Saturday night I attended the 3rd Annual Downtown Boca Italian Fest. It was packed with people and included rides, food, and live entertainment. During the festival Federal Hwy was blocked off and parking can be kind of tricky in this area. There is a strip mall located adjacent to this area but do not park there. It is patrolled and if you are caught parking in the plaza but not visiting a business there they will have you towed and are quite aggressive about it. If there aren't any events going on here you can usually find parking on the street. If there is an event your best bet is to park in the Mizner Park parking garage.

    2nd Review: I had to add comments regarding the phenomenal bike station in Sanborn Square. It's directly across from Tucci's restaurant. It has a bike repair station and a station to pump air in your tires - truly awesome ! 1st Revuew: This is a small green space near Mizner Park on Federal Highway. There is a stage, several benches and a waterfountain. There are plenty of restaurants in the surrounding areas.

    Great location went to Art fair. Nice as always. Need to be aware of the homeless hanging around the Pavillion area.

    What a wonderful experience it was to visit this outdoor art exhibition space! Each artwork seamlessly blended with the surrounding nature, creating a magical and enriching atmosphere. The variety of artistic styles and techniques present was simply fascinating, offering visitors a diverse and captivating insight. Moreover, the arrangement of the artworks allowed for a unique interaction with the environment, inviting us to reflect and appreciate the beauty of both art and nature. Undoubtedly, this place is a creative oasis that inspires and uplifts the spirit. A delightful experience I would recommend to all art and outdoor beauty enthusiasts!

    Really nice, cozy park. Not large, but it is a nice oasis of greenery in an area of shopping centers, restaurants and other amenities.

    Used to be a great store. Since they raised items from $1 to $1.25 and now some items are $3, $5 and more, I noted today the food, candy, cleaning products, lotions, etc are half the size they were prior to the price increases. The quality is cheap, "made in China" garbage. Just another rip off store now like Walmart and other discount stores who jack up prices.and give you half of what you used to buy at a higher price Shame on you Dollar 🌴. You just lost a loyal and long time customer 🤬🤬🤬.

    This is one of my favorite parks in Boca Raton. You can just feel its rich history from all of people that have past thru the park over the many years. This is also one of Boca's best event venues. The Boca Burger Battle takes place in July, the Boca Raton Wine and Food Festival takes place in November, the Taco Battle takes place in February and the Wing/Dessert Battle takes place in April. Everyone loves the feel of the park when it's bustling with people and music. Be sure to check it out when you're in town.

    It's beautiful here and I don't even mind the homeless people, they always seem very friendly. Break bread with new friends lol

    Best place to come and practice yoga every Saturday morning if you are in the area.

    We visit every winter to attend the Saturday night drum circles with Michael Teller. Everyone is so friendly and we have a great experience.

    When we came the fountains were not working but the lit up trees and sidewalks are a nice place to walk around.

    One of Boca’s not so hidden gems. Sanborn Square is a great place to bring the family for a relaxing day. There’s a free yoga session on Saturday mornings hosted by Yoga Journey (also in Boca). It’s so awesome to see people enjoying the beautiful weather while practicing self care. This is one of the places on my list of “must sees” that I provide to my real estate clients, who are considering a move to South Florida. Lots of healthy food options within walking distance too.

    This park used to be nice but feels neglected nowadays with several unfortunate homeless souls roaming around.

  • 5/5 Jaime P. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a relatively small square but very well located in downtown Boca, has plenty of parking
