The Market Place handles the deli-plus-grocery hybrid format serving UCSD medical staff on W Arbor Drive. Grab & Go - Mission Hills rounds out the 5-listing subcategory with prepared sandwiches and salads. Hillcrest deli lunch traffic is driven heavily by the two hospital campuses — Scripps Mercy on Fourth Avenue and UC San Diego Health on W Arbor Drive — where staff and visitors need fast lunch options between shifts.
