Honestly the best Grocery Outlet Ive been to. They have the best deals, the store feels smaller than others so maybe they have to be more aggressive with the discounts.Store has always been clean each time I visit it.People working there also have always been nice. Think the dude I remember being the best was named Derek.Never know what is going to be on sale for 10 for a dollar here.

Such a random assortment of things youve probably never seen and never will again. Found several treasures here. Staff is very friendly and informative. Beer selection is decent and cheap. Used to be my little secret

I like to shop here, it’s small and the prices are great, but it comes at a cost, multiple times I have purchased items here only later to realize they were expired. This has happened with canned goods and dairy. So just check the expiration dates when buying.

This is a favorite local market! I have found everything there from salt lamps to Irish cheese. The trick is to buy what you want when you first see it ( or not long after) because it may be sold and not come back into stock for months! However, you can count on your staples showing up along with unusual varieties. For instance, I always find milk, eggs, organic bananas, and avocados every time I visit the store - along with new versions of vegetarian frozen items. For the lean red meat eaters - you will find grass fed and organic varieties of meat and sometimes ground buffalo and other such esoteric items.Additionally, they also sell vitamins and other healthy items continuously. Many organic items even canned and frozen organic items at good prices are always in the mix. It is always worth the trip to 1948 Broadway because of novel items you find there. This menagerie of well- priced uniqueness makes a mundane trip for groceries a lot more fun.

I usually like shopping here but today I came across 10 Items that were expired. I saw them while I was shopping and at first was surprised to see one item expired. On my way to the front I came across another, and another, and another. I work in a grocery store. How often are items checked? One item expired in JUNE. It is August 3rd.

Stop here first with your shopping list, you might not find what youre looking for, but youll get unexpectedly great deals on some great finds. They also try to find as many dietary restrictive items as possible for those so unfortunate as to need them. Shoot asparagus is 99 cents a bunch today, give me a break. Love these guys.

I told cashier an item was expired and smellled funny after opening yet she still refused to give money back. Was very rude. Be careful what you buy as they expect you to pay for items that are expired.

Review №18

Always a great selection, especially of smaller or less widely known brands. A stellar place to find healthy, organic or offbeat options. I wouldnt say this is the store to find exactly what you need, but it is the store to find a great deal on something youre sure to love. They tend to have certain items that you know you can almost always find here like chips, make up wipes, or yogurt. But the brands or flavors or styles vary. Its a really great place to find your new favorite thing. My kids love the seaweed snacks, I love the skincare deals, our pets love the variety of treats we can always find.

Love this store. Manage to feed armies on a budget easily. Just today, picked up enough protein drink mix packets, to last about 3 or 4 months, for $16 total!Do remember to read labels and expiration dates -- their business model is to pick up other companies write-offs... so some things are really close to their expiration date (which is mostly an arbitrary number, I know, I used to be a dairy pasteurizer, my milk lasted about 2 weeks past the date stamped on the cartons, which the carton machine technician would set at 11 or 14 days, depending on the order destination).The Staff are really helpful and friendly as well. Plenty of parking. Highly recommended.

I dig this place a lot. It’s like a treasure hunt, so if you’re not into the ‘shop’ prob not the best choice. If you enjoy finding organic, non-gmo, QUALITY products at prices SIGNIFICANTLY lower than the specialty stores they’re generally found in, BINGO! This is your go. I recently purchased Primal Kitchen Collagen Fuel Golden Tumeric for $16 and change. It cost $44 at a neighboring competitor. It’s those kinda finds that make it fun. Greenfield Applewood bacon $3.99. Boom Chicka Kettle Corn $4.99 for the big bag. In additional, there’s some excellent wine, beer, hard cider, hard seltzer, etc. selections. Today, was an exceptionally good day and my own personal victory was found in the refrigerator section: Silk Almond Creme Brûlée creamer, large bottle $1.99! I paid less for the four I bought than some folks pay for one bottle. Will it be there next week? More than likely no, but other treasures await if that’s your pleasure.

Review №33

Staff is always pleasant. They do however need to open up the bathrooms for customers again as there is no reasonable cause not to. The covid is respiratory. The law states everyone to wear masks if the store follows the rules of the land there is no reason that closing the bathroom will prevent the spread. There may be a day in which there will be a true bathroom emergency and the customer may have no control of their bowels or bladder and at that point the store manager should think of the staff and other customers who are shopping. Ethics are important. The customers money is good enough for the store to take. But the customer is not good enough to use the bathroom in an emergency.

Not as many great deals as in the past, but pleasant experience as usual. There was a tall thin young man who was friendly, helpful to everyone, and made the shopping experience a pleasure. Great employee and should be commended

This is the best Grocery Outlet, they have the things I need to buy with a husband who is Gluten Free. The new Grocery Outlet in AG doesnt carry the items I need. I cant go to two stores, so I consistently choose to go to Santa Maria to this Grocery Outlet. Always find what I need there. Its so great that the Grocery Outlets are similar in the structure.

This is my first choice for grocery shopping. You may not find everything you want here, as selection varies, but you will always find some high quality and special niche items at extremely reduced prices.This allows me to sample items that would ordinarily seem overpriced or that I just would not find elsewhere.Extremely nice, friendly staff.

Great prices and different selections every week. Staff is always helpful and kind. Have been shopping there at least once a month for the last 4 years and am always happy with the experience. Have to say that value is at the core of my shopping experience. Im a bargain hunter for quality products. I have been buying the fresh meats and veggies recently and have been pleasantly surprised.

Amazing prices, very surprising selection, many gluten free foods, excellent help, delicious wines at a fraction of the cost anywhere else, organic produce... One stop shopping. Im always surprised.I would like to add that on my last visit, I was helped by a most delightful woman. She showed me some fabulous offers for wild caught salmon at half off, and some delicious new gluten free foods.Then she proceeded to efficiently and carefully bag my TWO carts of groceries while sharing recipes. (This is typical of the employees at this store.) Come to find out, she is the owner - she and her husband! Timmie asked if there was any thing more she could do for me. And when I asked if she could looking into accepting Discover, she told me she most certainly would. Then she gave me her card pictured.What amazing service!Also, this store is very clean, with employees constantly attending the isles.Sometimes the check out lines get long, but its worth the wait.They also have boxes for your wine choices to be carried out safely, and my bananas are never bruised. Yay!Its the small things that matter when shopping, right? Such as... 🛒... I have not found one cart that tries to veer off when I am intending to go straight. 😁One photo is the savings I regularly receive. Many times its more than I spend. $$They have a great return policy as well.But what not every shopper realizes, is that you can enter the bottom of your receipt (as I pictured) into a regular drawing. Grocery Outlet will pay you to shop! Ask your checker how to enter. Its super easy.See you there!POST SCRIPT: since my review, and the owners guarantee to work on shorter lines, I have not waited for more than two persons ahead of me. Thats brilliant customer service!

I had my review at a 4 star but I am dropping to a 3 star. The reason is today I went in at 7:20 pm a cashier said I can help you on 1. I then told her I needed to buy bags as many as it would take she was loading them heavily and then gave me a bag to start bagging after that she charged me than had a pile of my items just sitting there I told her can I buy another bag because no way was I just going to through them in my cart she said Ill just give you one she was so rude I have never had an experience at any store like this before as I was leaving I said if you dont like your job you shouldnt have applied for it because they didnt look for you for the position you applied for it
