“Just inquired about some interesting wine at Meritage--they sought it out, and ordered some for me. They are a full service wine shop, staffed with very knowledgeable and friendly folks. This shop has close ties with many top winemakers in the U.S. and Europe, and often have wines that are hard to find anywhere else. Have been a customer for--um--decades. They even delivered wine during the Covid shutdown--true lifesavers! Have attended a number of their wine tasting events, and have learned much about my favorite bev from them.”

“If you're into craft beer or hard seltzers—especially local picks—this is your go-to liquor store in Encinitas. The selection is top-notch, with a strong focus on local breweries and small-batch seltzers that you won't find at bigger chain stores. The shelves are always stocked with fresh, rotating options, from hazy IPAs to crisp lagers and creative seasonal flavors.

The staff is super friendly and genuinely knowledgeable. If you're not sure what to try, they’re happy to offer suggestions or point you toward something new. Prices are fair, and the layout makes it easy to find what you're looking for without having to dig through cluttered aisles.

Bonus points for supporting local brands—this place makes it easy to drink good and feel good about it. Highly recommend!”

“I have been a customer with this Staters Brother Market for three years and will always appreciate Joe Bravo for his excellent customer service. He always put great value on teamwork, which showed great leadership from top to bottom. I was sad to hear that he had retired. The store will never be the same without him.”

“Great customer service and amazing deli and endless choices in their specialty depts. When purchasing a cut of meat or seafood the professionals behing the counter will guide you and even explain cooking instructions if you need! Famous for their Cardiff Krack (Tri tip), you can also purchase a cooked or uncooked roast or a sandwich to go.❤️ Seaside Market!”

“On a day cruise down the coast, stopped in this delightful place for lunch. The food (sandwich) was out of this world delicious! The focaccia- like bread added amazing taste and texture. The ingredients were fresh and portions generous. Service was highly attentive and atmosphere was casual, relaxed, and inviting.”

“Love the curation of this mom & pop! Can’t wait for their wine bar to open in Carlsbad!!

This place offers so much, from amazing natural wine selections to thoughtful grocery, snack, and home goods items. I seriously want to buy all the glassware from them! They host monthly events like wine tastings and seasonal events like a ship+shop and floral arrangement workshop. They also have stunning gift boxes with pre-made or custom options available. So cute!!”
