It was my first experience shopping here, they have a great selection of locally grown vegetables, fruits, nuts, honey, etc... Most of which seems to be organic. Their deli and meat department both looked excellent, I purchased a few cuts of steak. Theres also a good selection of health food and Mexican choices like sweet bread and candy. I noticed theres quite a large selection of liquor too, although on this occasion I didnt explore that section. What I enjoyed most about the store was the calm environment, maybe it was the hour, a little after 8pm and they close at 9pm but it was peaceful. Ultimately I tried Major Market just to compare it to their only close competition Albertsons, theyre definitely different and I cannot say anything negative about either place. Of course I think it does without saying they cannot compete with Albertsons prices and were just a little more expensive, Id be willing to spend the money when I want to shop in peace. Try them out for yourself.

Love it!! The prices are just a lil higher than your big market but its so worth it. The convenience of a small market where you can find things easier, friendly staff, fresh produce and the place is clean.

It is amazing the selection that they have at this grocery store, especially in all of the international items. Theyre wine selection is also very good, and quite reasonably priced compared to some of the local Fallbrook wineries. Also be sure to check out there fresh fish, as they offer unfrozen local Mexican fish that is very high quality. We love to shop here given the selection.

Many of the items you can find at most other groceries while also offering a unique selection of items you cant find anywhere else. Really great produce section with unbelievably fresh items. My favorite is the assortment of old-school candies (chocolate mints) that I used to have as a kid and cannot find anywhere else. Staff is really friendly, take the time to get to know their customers and are willing to help at a drop of a hat.

Enjoy shopping here! Has organic and gluten free options Available! Lately all stores have had a shortage of gluten free products, they could use a little wider selection! Normally has a great bread selection!

You know, this place is actually okay. I expected it to be more limited as compared to the likes of the major chains - the Albertsons and Ralphs and Vons we come to be familiar with - but I was pleasantly surprised at the inventory here. They offer most of the basic needs I have as well as any of the big chains do and the place is actually very big with lots of selection. There are even some obscure items and ethnic food ingredients that you may not find at the big chains which is nice and I was impressed with the beer selection in particular, because they had some good labels that I dont generally see at the big chains.I have one big criticism though. The lighting in the store is AWFUL. I know many people probably will assume this isnt a big deal or that I am needlessly nitpicking about an unimportant detail, but seriously the place is dim and depressing because of truly poor lighting. I feel like I am in a seedy liquor store or on the set of a David Fincher movie in this place and its unnerving and is enough to actually make me stick to the Albertsons in town. Im not joking actually. The lighting is that drab. Its a shame because the selection is actually pretty good but I dont want to feel like Im in an underground bunker when I shop. Bright warm lights that make me feel comfortable and able to see the products would actually make me consider shopping here regularly. I cant possibly be the only person to feel this way.

Unless there are sales on paper towels and paper plates etc., Major Market is very expensive and it doesnt carry all of the items and equal quality that Albertsons carries (i.e. toilet paper, paper towels and cleaning supplies).Regardless, the staff is always friendly.

Review №51

Delighted to find a smallish but fully stocked grocery store apart from the big chains. Our first visit, we were able to find everything we normally shop for in the larger stores. The tantalizing aroma from the back wall drew me to the well staffed meat department, the crown jewel of the store. The broilers were working magic, transporting me immediately back to the 50s, when grocery shopping with Grandpa was an olfactory adventure. We found every team member that we encountered, curteous and genuinely friendly. Major Market has become our default, go to, grocery store.

Go to local grocery store. Outstanding produce & meat departments. Many hard to find products are available in the grocery section. On site bakery. Nice selection of wine, beer & spirits. Kitchen produces many delicious prepared meals to go. Super friendly staff - most have worked there many years. Love this place - two enthusiastic thumbs up!

I have been shopping here since they first opened. I love their organic fruits and vegetables! Their prices seem a bit high on most of the items. The deli section is really good. You can get a great sandwich for a really good price. Highly recommend the sandwiches!! The chicken dinner used to be priced very reasonably but not anymore. The weekly ad specials make it worth going and they have senior discount days twice a month but you have to make sure to tell them you want the discount! Did I mention they have really good sandwiches!!

Friendly staff and a great customer service. Theyre willing to special order anything you want. Theyve expanded their organic and health food section so that makes it an extra Plus for me. They also are amazing at the variety and depth of the support they have for different organizations in the community. Because of how much they support are community I would go there just for that reason alone!

Cutest small town grocer. Military/veteran Monday 10% discount. Good selection and great sales on local produce. Friendly staff, easy to find most items. Amazing beer, wine, and alcohol selection. Good homeopathic medicine selection, fresh ground coffee, deli is a bit expensive, but the chicken dinners are amazing. If something is wrong, they stop at nothing to fix it. Local soaps and other local products are also sold here.

I love this market, no need to shop anywhere else. I have to eat gluten free and they have been amazing about bringing in a huge selection of gluten free products in addition to their amazing selection of all other items. If you want to eat healthily this is the place to shop, Organic vegetables, a wonderful selection of fish and meat and the deli has a great selection of meats and cheeses, many ethnic foods and items from other countries. If they dont have something I am looking for, I just ask and they will get it. You will find the normal products but always there is an organic or G.F., or healthy version available too. Very friendly employees and it is a pleasure to shop there.

Their prices are a bit high at times. They do have a HUGE selection of meats, cold cuts, salads and pre-made stuffed meats/chicken, etc...Its nice to go in and grab something thats already prepared that you just have to put in the oven when you get home. I dont buy anything in there unless its on sale. They also have a huge organic fruit/veggie section.
