Save Mart

Place has really cleaned up and there deli and meat department are excellent!

The remodel in the freezer section is nice. It's usually not super busy, so you can get in and out quickly. The store is always clean. I do wish they had hand baskets in addition to their shopping carts.

This place has great deals on fancy feast cat food along with a wide selection of dog food! Good selection of deli meats and cheese. Good deals on wine. Good chicken specials (way less than KFC) that is made fresh. To go salads and sandwiches. Laura in the fish department works so hard
.and with a smile!. Awesome deals on wine. They have lobster..clams..nice steaks and weekly specials ! On Tuesdays they have specials on their prepared chicken fingers and sometimes wings! Get on the app to see what the weekly specials are!

So the things that are expensive at Safeway are cheaper here and vice versa. Definitely a supplier/competition thing.

Reasons to shop here. The bakery, their Full Circle Organics and their store brand packaged items under both Pacific Coast and Crav’n

Best bakery of all the chain grocery stores (it’s not home made but the best of the chains). Their Jalapeno cheese & Asiago bagels rival Bubbahs (Bubbahs wins for the Pizza bagel though). Their sweets like cookies and birthday cakes aren’t just a mouthful of sugar (like Safeway ick) and the cookies are also moist. Not dry and crumbly. They usually have a unique supply of breads. Their baguettes are a disappointment as they can be pinner and hard as rock. Sub their Telero rolls or a flavored bread instead. Other issue is they don’t have a huge amount of everything baked daily. Best option is to call the day before and order.

Their store brand, Full Circle Organics, has great prices for packaged organic goods. Pacific Coast has good quality packaged items like sliced bread etc. Packaged “junk food” under their Crav’n brand are great cheaper alternatives for knock off Oreo’s, Potato Chips/Doritos, and frozen goods. All taste just as good and/or some are better then name brands.

Meat dept. is OK. Recommend the jalapeño bacon. It is not spicy but has great flavor. Fish dept. is just meh as I think they re-freeze a lot. I do recommend the pre-packaged frozen shrimp brands here, that often go on sale, as the frozen shrimp at Safeway seriously tastes like chemicals.

Store tends to be understaffed but everyone is very friendly so that makes up for it. It is not a crowded zoo as Safeway tends to be. More elbow room than Safeway but not as nice as Raleys.

Great little grocery store. Seemed to have almost anything you might need. Prices were reasonable.
