“If you have access to the commissary this is a great place to shop. they have everything you need plus If you've ever been stationed overseas they have a lot of food from places where US military stationed.”
“Fun Fact this is a hidden trick at this PX you can actually take a Riggers Belt and just put it on and leave your MCCAP belt in the store and its totally cool. I used to shop here all the time back in 2008-2012 when i was with 1st Recon. You ARE authorized to tactically conceal anything you want in you're ruck sack or cargo pockets. I also recommend that you chow down while in the PX just make sure you clean up after yourself. Remember its NOT stealing its tactically acquiring what you and you're fellow Marines need. I never had any issues and neither did the other 150 Recon Marines who were with me.”
“I went to one of the Trader Joe's in Oceanside, CA. I love shopping here whenever I find one in one state or another. I usually pick up my goodies to take home to enjoy and also for omiyage for friends and family. I love that they have fresh flowers, if I lived where there was a store, I would buy them. I always buy the hand sanitizers to use throughout the year. The lime cookies and dried mandarin is yummy.”
“The best carneceria near base! Amazing prices with quality meats. Super helpful staff that excel in communication and planning. Military friendly shop that supports the community. 10/10 recommend for any catering event. Mike is the man to talk to. He will do you right!!”
“Never crowded. Accessible parking. Interesting specials typically rotate and may not be available every time. Decent produce. Prices are quite reasonable if your trying to save, often 50-75% less than chain stores. The oceanside store has excellent wines at remarkable prices. Look out for the 50% sales.”
“I love this tortilleria. The fact that I can custom order my masa for tamales without lard is amazing. So accommodating but you need to order ahead of time. I made the mistake of thinking I could handle my one woman tamale masa making show, I cannot. They pulled through for me at a crucial moment in my process.”
“I really like the selection at this store. You can always find lots of delicious products from different European countries. They have Polish sausage and a great selection of Polish and German food. Great variety and always something new to try!”
“Have to use an ATM card to pay! You can get cash back on your ATM card purchase. Cash accepted at the very front of the self-service checkout or at the full service checkouts. To use the self-service checkout you need to have 15 or fewer items. They will not take any credit card. Attractive store layout well lit wide isles. Friendly helpful staff got quick service on my checkout problems where it rejected 2 ATM cards, but for both of them that was the first use. They have an interesting bread selection from their own bakery, french bread and Italian bread and my favorite sourdough Rosemary bread. Their garlic bread has a butter like spread on it, gave me heartburn. Walmart bakery uses datem as emulsifier (bad for health, I stopped buying it). Winco Produce in nicer condition than Walmart and substantially cheaper especially for oranges. The Cara Cara oranges have reddish flesh and I like them better than the navels in there about a dollar a pound. Love to look through all their hundreds of bulk foods and spices but they're basil is weak. Great selection of 88c per lb oatmeal even the stuff they call Scottish oats is quick cooking oats or 1 minute oats and then they're quick oats is a 5-minute oat and then the old fashioned is a 10 minute and then the course oats are 45 minutes oats. They have red lentils in their wonderful they don't cause any gas and you can make them into a puree in the blender especially if you cook them in the instapot and let them sit for an hour after they're done under pressure. My dog's favorite pedigree small dog chicken dog food is very cheap here also.”
“Complete shout out to the bakery department!!! They did an amazing job on the cake I ordered for a combined birthday party. Every detailed was spot on. I would definitely order from them again!!!”
“Pappy’s is the go-to neighborhood spot for everything from late-night eggs to a last-minute bottle of rosé at 11 PM. It’s the kind of place where you’ll walk in for one thing and walk out with an unexpected pair of sunglasses—all served up with a friendly smile.”
“Not sure if this is the same thing but the night market is amazing! I’ve never seen the variety of food that was offered here anywhere else. They had Brazil food to sea urchin, Jamaican food, I had this “tea ice cream that was amazing never would’ve guessed it would be so tasty. If I’m back in Oceanside I’d definitely plan it around being here for the night market! Starts at 5pm I believe every Thursday night weather permitting.”
“This is a sandwich that every man needs!! This sandwich was so good and so incredibly filling that it turned into three meals and I’m a hungry, hungry Marine And this is not even in the same realm as any sub chain This is some true Italian deli subs on the freshest bread with oil and vinegar The Italian may have been one of the best subs I’ve ever had in my life and I’m not exaggerating. Absolute must go.!!!!!”
“Nice Grocery Outlet to grab some waters. There's a Dollar Tree next door. Fun fact I learned today: Grocery Outlet was founded in 1946 in San Francisco selling heavily discounted military surplus. And because they primarily buy manufacturer overstock and closeouts, about 80% of their store inventory changes every two weeks.”
“Primos tacos are god sent 😁 especially on Tuesday and Friday's 69 cents, is this world nowdays you can't beat that. Been coming here for about 15 years love it!”
“I love this store! Best butcher shop around. They are very accommodating for cutting meats and the best selection of seafood in town. Their Burgundy Marinated Tri-tip is unbeatable. Their own brand sourdough is terrific. I like the unsliced loaf. Sometimes the shelves are not fully stocked but the front office listens to suggestions. Bottom line... shop local”
“So, I come by here 2 times/ week on my way home. I moved here 3 yrs. ago and have enjoyed the friendliness of ALL the guys here AND good deals. There has ALWAYS been what I need in a pinch! Quick grub, absolutely every beverage known to man. And they ALWAYS have 'buy 2 for X deal price' ; ends up cheaper than Supermarket. Great place, guys. Thanks, CZH”
“One of very good Asian market I love going to. They have hot food, great seating and awesome people. Grab a snack I like the shrimp chips and Asian can fruits.”
“Best Market all your beach vibes and necessities in one shot love this spot and can we appreciate the lovely selection of different succulents colors available they are so unique love love love.”
“Excellent customer service & very friendly staff. We tend to shop here nearly monthly, for over a year now. We’ve never had a bad experience. Always happy we came back! They offer substitutes if something we ordered isn’t available. Occasionally they’ll throw in a free gift with purchase too. We love a business that gets to know you & remembers you too. Thank you!”
“The guys there so friendly & helpful every single time I go ! I actually have 4 other liquor stores closer to me and drive out further just because of how nice they are !! They’ve even ordered additional stuff for me that they didn’t typically have, I appreciate them so much !”
“What a lovely store! The best quality of just about everything! The produce is beautiful and fresh. The employees are kind and helpful. Everything is well stocked and organized. There's a mellow nice vibe in here. Got some delicious mangos and will be back again in the future ❤”
“Major Market in Bonsall has become my go-to spot for quality meat. Their tri-tip is excellent—it’s honestly right up there with the one at Seaside Market. I also appreciate their produce section; they had a beautiful display of mushrooms and some fantastic cherries on my last visit that my wife really enjoyed. Definitely worth a stop.”
“I've been going 5 star market since a kid and nothing but helpful and friendly workers. Rod is an great owner will go above and beyond to help with what needs and wants people have”
“If you’re looking for El Nopalito salsa, this is the wrong location—it’s another place with the same name. However, they do sell the El Nopalito chips at a better price than the other one! Very helpful service.”
“Something about this grocery outlet, they do it right well stocked with things I need friendly staff clean store and spacious. Of all the grocery outlets in San Diego county I'd rate this one the best.”
“I love their customer service and the fact that they had the safety precautions like have to wear a mask, one way aisles, and maintain six feet from the start. I only wish more of their customers understood what one way means.”
“I love going to this wic store I highly recommend its convenient and way easier than going to a regular store. The owners always make sure that you have everything and they will go out of their way to help you take all the groceries on to your car. They are very polite and respectful! Keep the good work you guys are doing awesome!”
“This is a great spot for craft beers yeah they have other items but if you're looking for craft beers this is a great spot. What I really like is that they have a good selection of single cans of craft beers for a reasonable price. This store is jammed packed with stuff so be careful walking around.”
“Great selection of fish and Filipino and Asian staples. I mainly go here for the fish, but I've visited to buy some lumpia and sauces as well.The way the fish counter works is you pick your fish and hand it to the fish cleaner behind the counter in the back. He hands you a ticket and you go to the front to pay. Return back with the receipt and collect your cleaned fish! You also have the option of them frying your fish for a fee - which really hits the spot on those warmer days.Highly recommend it here.”
“Not the worst meat market I've been too for sure. They had the meats, beer, and typical groceries that you'd expect to find in a place like this. The prices are about right in line with the like shops in the area. Pretty good meat though. Not too upset with this place.”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.

Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
