“A great local, small grocery store. I go here many days a week, and I love it. It’s really nice to know the people that work there, to run into your neighbors, and to get what you need without long lines.”
“Never worry about the prices here.Don't need a coupon. Their employees are super helpful.Take you to help find things and for an old lady.Like, I am, that is very helpful.It's my go to place.”
“Great group of people that are involved with local events. Refreshing beer on taps and fresh Mexican food. Most of all, a dog friendly courtyard depending on what activity is there or not there.”
“Great deli customer service and selection. Call ahead for a sando makes it fast and easy. The produce selection is always really, really good. The cost is kinda high”
“Great place. I has the home made humus and taboleh, delicious. The owners are mother and son that are extremely nice and inviting. Great selection of products, but try all their home made fresh stuff.”
“United market is close to home and offers a nice selection of vegetables that usually are priced reasonable when the season is right. Also I can get cash back in quarters for the laundry which helps me wash. It is good to have a United market in the neighborhood. Thanks”
“Andy's is a jewel in the neighborhood. Their sandwiches are great and they have a pretty good selection of prepared foods. They pack a lot into a small store. Their prices aren't the lowest, but that's not why I go. I wish more neighborhoods had a store like this.”
“Great neighborhood market! It's nice to not have the crowds of a bigger store and yet find everything you need and more. They have an awesome deli counter and I took home a turkey burger with potato salad. It was hard to choose among all the options. There's also a loyalty program.”
“I literally go to three different grocery outlet stores. I'm SF based so I go between Marin and here. Grocery outlet is so needed. Good food and treats too. All affordable. I make sure I price here first.”
“What a cute, clean, friendly, well-kept market! Lots of choices for all the different rices, spices, even devices! Incense, oils sweets, treats, even water buffalo butter! Very nice place. Very friendly staff! Just the way a little market should be.”
“Sprouts in San Rafael had very friendly, nonjudgmental staff and made me feel welcome walking in as a trucker in my combat boots. The store was clean, well cared for, and there was plenty of parking. The only downside was the homeless activity in the surrounding neighborhood.”
“Always stocked, mostly in cans and cereals. Always fresh fruits and vegetables, red meat and seafood. Cashier staff to the max. Vegetable and canned personnel are always busy. Meat staff always serve reluctantly.”
“I visited this store for the first time. I admired the cleanness and organization of this place. The service was excellent.It is a small store, but it has a lot of good Peruvian products. I hope this store will soon fulfill pickup or DoorDash orders because it is located on a busy street (Fourth Street), and sometimes it is difficult to find parking close by.I recommend checking the expiration date of the product you would buy. I bought a couple of items that were expired. I didn't bother to return them. Lesson learned.”
“They have loads of items, most in bulk proportions. It's all quite affordable. Only issue is that the store brand items are not good. For example, I got a poppy dead dressing, an item I buy often and use various brands. It was super runny and tasted like a bitter vinegary mess. No sweetness or creaminess. I guess you get what you pay for. But for huge sizes of brand name items at a good price....it's great”
“This unsuspecting little corner market packs quite a bit of surprises! They have pre packaged bags of pan dulce at front window. Incredibly impressed by the flavor, softness and freshness! I found unique spices and cubes of bouillon for Columbian, Argentinian, Puerto Rican cooking. Very specific flavors not at the average supermarket. They had a pretty good variety of fruits and vegetables too like plantains for Salvadoran cooking as well. Its well worth the drive. I'd go again for the little variety packs of pan dulce!!”
“This store is 200 feet away from my front door, which was a huge relief when I first moved in. While the store has all the basic staples, I've been disappointed more than once when I have gone to the store really craving something specific and came back home empty-handed. However, they are stocked with some very good cuts of meat, a deli, and some fresh fruits and produce. They even have a few impulse buys and an inventory of gray market items that could grant you a deal on otherwise very expensive products. My best friend walked in there one day, and they had 3 Beats Studio Pro headphones in stock at 60% off the original sticker price. He was certain that they were counterfeit or knock-offs, but when he got them home, they were verified by Beats to be authentic and in perfect shape. Make of that what you will - but I pop my head in once a week to see what they got their hands on this time, and occasionally they've got a great deal on typically out-of-reach items... always happy to benefit from a deal. All around, besides the selection for typical American grocery items, this store has grown on me, and I've come to depend on it.”
“My granddaughter likes the fruzel treats. I went to this store weekly, it's been several months between my last visit. He still remembers me and what I come for.”
“There is a wide variety of different goods including groceries. Way too many people complaining about the store and employees. They are hard workers and not relying on the government for money. Just about every store in Marin needs workers. People on Nextdoor are always complaining about stores not having enough workers. As the cost of living here is ridiculous so it's hard to find workers. Be kind to the workers and if you can't do that, then shop online.”
“I want to thank and complement “Lisa” in your Floral Dept. We were having a memorial and Lisa was so helpful with our flower selections. She created the arrangements of Tulips with matching colored ribbons. The bigger arrangements of Lillie’s & Roses were outstanding. Lisa was so pleasant and efficient. She made the entire event so much better, and was very understanding and caring. Safeway is lucky to have such a gifted employee.”
“Very random selection of stuff and depending on the direction you're traveling it can be tricky getting in and out of the parking lot but if you are looking for beer, beverages, ice, lottery or tobacco then I suppose it'd be handy for that.”
“I LOVE IT!!!! I find everything I need from Guate. I come from the east of the bay because here I find everything. Thank you!!! Coming to Mi Rancho Market is feeling at home, a little piece of my homeland.”
“I love stopping in here for a quick snack or beverage to go with my lunch. I was always curious to their hours, so today I asked, and the nice employee said 9-7.”
“Very kind. Good service. Keep in mind it gets busy in the afternoon, I would suggest to come early mornings. Their hours M-F are 9AM-7PM, on the weekend Sat close at 2PM. Muy amable. Buen servicio. Ten en cuenta que está ocupado por la tarde, te sugiero que vengas temprano por la mañana. Su horario de lunes a viernes es de 9 a.m. a 7 p.m., el fin de semana el sábado cierra a las 2 p.”
“Great selection, but the prices are too high! Update: As of the later part of September 2023, this store is now closing at midnight for the time being.”
“Really authentic food: delicious Punch $2.49, milk products fresh made/ home made - cheeses, fermented milk, sour cream and many more, lots of spices, ripe pineapple, ripe papayas, coffee $2.25, hot bar, salads, fish, meats if you’re meat eater and much more. Mostly employees speak Spanish but it is not barrier. Highly recommend.”
“I dont use Whole Foids as my primary grocery. I may go in every other month or so. Usually for the prepared foods which I find very good. It is a popular store so getting in and out of the parking lot can sometimes be a hassle.”
“During our last Safeway shopping venture in Idaho Springs, CO, my husband & I had a thoroughly positive experience. I needed to pick up an RX & finally decided it was the day for a flu vaccination. The pharmacist, Jennifer was extremely helpful. I did not need the RX for awhile, she had no problem with me waiting until it was needed. She also looked up an RX I had a concern about as well as providing the necessary paperwork. Jennifer was kind as well as professional. Richard, the deliverer of the vaccination was extremely patient & did everything possible to ease my distress & possible soreness. Matt was about to leave his register as the rush was over, but his light inadvertently left on. Even though his mindset was on his other duties, he checked out our groceries with a winning personality displaying humor & warmth. Donne (sp?) the front end employee, added to the positivity with her kindness & friendliness. Most appreciatively!! Richard & Michelle Chicago Creek Road”

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.
