This is my new favorite grocery store! The new owners have done a fantastic job of finding specialty foods and wine at a reasonable prices. Even for those with food allergies. I love the fresh sourdough bread they bring in from their other location. My new go to!

I think that it's a very good small convenient store, full of good healthy food but it can be a little pricy.

Dan and Julie are the greatest people. They really care about supporting local suppliers. They have an amazing selection of local produce, snacks, supplements and wine. They make delicious salads and sandwiches daily, they even bake their own bread. It is so great to have a small independently owned local grocery store. Nearly 100% of the money they make, goes back into the local Santa Cruz County economy, by their support of local producers. I am so happy to have such a great place to shop.

So happy to see Aptos Foods open and doubly happy to see that it is owned by the lovely couple from Seascape Foods who have been in my family's lives since my kids were little. Yay!!! #keepinitlocal #buylocal #aptosfoods

I absolutely love this store - they appear to be having a problem and I hope it's resolved soon. I live in Soquel near the village and made a trip to the store today specifically to stock up on fresh veggies for a salad. The shelves and much of the produce section was practically bare. I asked in the lotion section of the store what was going on and these two workers who were talking to each other before they saw me gave a curt response: "Supply chain issues." No further commentary. I asked the checker if they were going out of business and she said no, that they were having "supply chain issues." I said "what kinds of supply chain issues are you having for local vegetables?" She said she didn't know. The "supply chain issue" response is obviously an excuse or diversion from what's really going on (as every other store in the complex was bursting at the seams with stuff, and other local grocery stores don't seem to be having problems . . . ) I hope they recover and don't go out of business. I would want them to be more honest and straight-forward with customers (and less defensive), but I understand they probably get asked all day every day what the problem is. Maybe they could make little signs saying whatever the real deal is so their customers would know. I won't be making special plans to go back soon but I hope when I do go back the vibrant store is back!

Bought expired products and was "mistakenly" over charged. Check your expiration dates and receipts!! I'll avoid this place from now on.

I have been shopping here for many years. I get my fruit and veg and eggs here, because the quality is so good. I believe that the excellent food here keeps me in good health. The employees are great people. When I see something new, they always have the time to explain it to me. I like to be able to get as much or as little as I want, from the bulk bins. I appreciate being able to re-use my own containers for shampoo, lotion, detergent. The crew here has worked so hard to keep older people like me safe during covid. This store is a great part of the community.

I love Aptos Natural! The gift items are my favorites. There's so many interesting items that are perfect for that last minute gift. Also, love for stocking stuffers at the holidays. And the knowledgeable staff are so helpful when shopping for vitamins and supplements. The produce is very fresh, as well. I love that they're locally owned.
