Hamilton Euromarket

This place is awesome!!! I thought I wouldn’t be able to find any European stores around here, but they exist. They carry tons of chocolate (THEY HAVE KINDER BUENO), spices and snacks. They even have a refrigerated section. No European beers or liquor though.

We love this store as we get a lot of east European products.

This place is pretty awesome if you know or want to discover a lot of Eastern European goods. Lots of stuff from Romania, Slovenia, Bosnia… Got some Slovenian mineral water and that Croation fave Cevapi. They’ve got lots of weird packaged goods and huge cured meats section in the back. The lady working the front is very friendly and chatted with me on what I decided to buy. Cool place in a non descript strip mall worth checking out.

Nice collection of foods from Europe, especially items from Bosnia and Serbia. I’m no culinary expert for those countries, so we asked the guy working there (owner?) for advice. He was very helpful and we picked up some unique items from Hungary, Serbia and Germany.
One item I picked up is an interesting spread (looks like tomato sauce) that comes in various levels of spiciness; Euromarket had varieties from Bulgaria, Romania and Serbia.
Interesting stuff indeed!

I’ll still stay loyal to the Euro Market in Santa Clara, and certainly miss friendly Nedjad, but boy am I glad there’s this location so close to work! They have a lot more stuff in stock, and I’ll be coming here for groceries, the SC location for fresh cevapi. My coworker says that the fresh thing to get here is the börek on Wednesdays. The lepina is better too, though I was afraid they didn’t have any — it’s just hidden in a cabinet behind the register if you ask for it.
I just wish my cashier was a bit more approachable, so I could ask which ajvar brand is the spiciest. He didn’t even respond when I tried to cheerily ask, «kako ste?»
Best best best part though: they have my rare, favorite Haribo candy! I swear, I’ve only been able to find it in three stores in the U.S.

This little Eastern European stores is clean and well stocked with a wide variety of food from sweets, canned items, fresh and frozen meat from fish to sausages, frozen dumplings, and even freshly baked bread and borkeas! I stopped by here the other day to get a bottle of water and I smelled something delicious from the outside. I found out that it was the boreka!
Borekas are similar to piroshki’s. It’s a huge flat roll filled with savory meat. There is also a cheese one to I think. You can find it at the front counter by the fresh bread. One costs $ 4.50. The bread costs $ 1.50 a piece and it comes in a package of three but you can buy each piece individually. The prices for most of the food here seems fairly reasonable for what you get. I’ll have to come back here sometime to get some of their yummy looking sausages as I always love trying new types of food. This place is located right by Payless Shoes.

There are 3 types of people in the world: 1) Those who like chocolate, 2) Those who pretend they DON’T like chocolate but probably actually like it more than the people who admit it, and 3) Justin Bieber fans.
For those that don’t know how to sing «Never Say Never» or «Boyfriend,» feel free to head on over to Hamilton Euromarket. It is here, where you will find the best European chocolate around. From brands like Kinder, Eurocream, Storck, and Ferrero. If you’ve never had yourself a Kinder Bueno or Happy Hippo, you don’t know what you’re missing. I’m not going to go into my spiel about how much European chocolate is better than American chocolate, but it’s worth it to go try it out and judge for yourself. If you’re from Bosnia, Russia, Croatia, or somewhere else that might be the location of the next Taken movie, you can probably find homeland groceries here. It’s not a big market, but they have a good enough selection. They also have some freezers in there, that carry even more European favorites. Oh, and not to mention, more chocolate!

Pelmeni! Yes! Score!
Amazing selection for Pelmeni and they are tasty too!
I bought the chicken pelmeni but you can get them here with beef or with pork.
Pelmeni is Russian dish, yummy dumplings stuffed with meat. I sautee mine in butter, garlic and rosemary for added flavor after I boil the pelmeni.
They also have a large variety of Eastern European cheeses, breads, sausages and yummy chocolates and cookies.
Service is friendly and with a smile!

Alright, so it’s hard for this little place to compete with the likes of Orchard Produce across the street and the International Food Bazaar. But there is a whole slew of special items you can find at this place (at a better price) compared with the other two «giant» stores…
Imported chocolates (belgian, swiss)
Frozen spanakopita (shaped like cinnamon rolls)
Goat cheese in bulk
Fresh-​baked pita-​like bread (available sometimes)
Beef/​Chicken Buillion
Random foreign candies
Check this place out, grab a few items you have never tried… and I guarantee you that you will end up with a new favorite addiction!!!

This place has all the usual Balkan stuff at decent prices. The staff are friendly, and I ran into software colleagues from all over the Balkans there.
The sweets, pickled vegetables, ajvar and spices are great deals, but the meat is really important: the Bosnian cevapcici for grilling, the koloszvari salami for every day, and the $ 19 Sibiu salami for special occasions or as a gift — it is all natural and is just wrapped in cloth with no labelling.
It would be nice if it also had some budola, Brac-​style breads filled with cheeses, dark breads and something with poppy seeds, but those are hard to keep regularly because they must be fresh.

I love this store! My boyfriend is from Bosnia so it’s like a piece of home for him. They have a really good candy and cookie collection. Don’t be afraid to try them cuz they are all so yummy! All of their juices are yummy especially the fructal strawberry. The prices are good too, were def going to be regulars here!

I love European food and this place meets all the criteria I look for when it comes to good, authentic Balkan food.
First and foremost, this Euromarket is overloaded with sweets galore. It’s filled with MANY assorted treats that will satisfy even the neediest taste buds. From various brands such as kinder and milka, to well known Yugoslavian treats such as Jafa, Munchmellows, and many more. If you grew up anywhere in former Yugoslavia whether it be Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, or any other former Yugoslav country, you’ll get hit with an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia as you walk through the doors of this much needed Euromarket.
Second, they have baked goods! If you’re a fan of the burek (famous Balkan pie) then check out the Euromarket on Sundays and be sure to get there early because everyone, including the employees there, will try and get their hands on this mouth watering dish. Yes, it’s that delicious. I’ve been there roughly 5 times now and I’ve only gotten this dish ONCE despite making friends with the employees. Supply is low and the demand is high, sometimes I wish it was the other way around.
Third, it’s very affordable. I could walk in there with a ten dollar bill and walk out with a feeling as if I just robbed the place. With the dismal economy the way it is who doesn’t want to get more for their buck?
Last but not least, this place has impeccable customer service. Employees are very nice and ALWAYS willing to help. I wish that was an understatement but it’s not; I’m so used to poor to sub par service at other markets that I’ve come to expect just that. Customer service is crucial to a successful business these days and these guys take it up a notch. Go give it a whirl today as I promise you’ll be left with no regrets…

I should have know this place would have reviews already. They’ve already been open for about 2 weeks.
First off– for some reason anything in South Bay named «European» always means Eastern European, usually Russian. I think these guys are Serbian.
Lots of Russian, Hungarian, Bulgarian and other goodies. Very good refrigirated dairy and cured «meats and fish» sections. Good prices too. I definitely plan to try this place out little by little. As is I got some Russian marinated mushrooms (which I later discovered were «made in China»), mini honey cookies (very fresh) and a few other things.
They definitely have a bigger selection than most, although the little Bahar Market in the plaza behind them also has many similar items. The more the merrier :)

i came here yesterday because i saw it was open and wanted to get my euro on! i had my mind set on a cadbury flake bar but they said they didn’t have those. i guess i will have to go to the british store for that! i saw they had a good variety of juices, meat, cookies, candies, jams, canned goods, pickles. i ended up buying passion fruit juice, pear juice, hot polish sausage, a can of dolmas and potato and mushroom pierogies. my entire bill was about $ 15! awesome! this place is definitely not like safeway but you can find some really different and yummy goodies here!

I’ve been stalking this place for the last few weeks. I am obsessed with European food and I’m just as obsessed with international food markets. So I’ve been staring at this place every day when I drive home from work. The signs went up two weeks ago. Last week, the shelves arrived, along with a freezer and a few signs. Then few days ago, the open sign and some products appeared. I’m so curious about what’s going on in there, so I tracked down a number and called them tonight.
«Hi, so you don’t know me, but I really like you…»
Okay, not really. But I did ask when they’re going to open (Tuesday-​ish) and what kind of food they’re going to have (so far, Yugoslavian, Bosnian, Serbo-​Croatian, Russian, some German). What about the Poles? I’m obsessed with the Polish foods my friends bring back for me. I guess I’ll have to wait and see about those.
Is it weird if I show up uninvited? This reminds me of the crush I had on Karl Bach in third grade: I used to ride my bike past his house every day because he CONVENIENTLY lived on the same street as my best friend. But then one day he moved to West Virginia and I cried for the rest of the summer. Don’t do that to me, Hamilton Euromarket.
EDIT 11 June 2008:
They did open today ! And they had lots of yummy goodies for me to oogle. They’ve got the usual stuff, a large selection of sodas (the 2L Cockta made me giggle, and the 2L Kvass made me want to vomit… have you ever had that stuff?!) and a lot of water for some reason. They had a large selection of juices and I found some Polish cherry juice that I adore. Best part? It was only $ 2.99 !! And I found a Hungarian candy bar that looked good, and I got that… for only $.59 ! You can’t get a bad American candy bar for that price !!
That’s what I love about this place – their prices are terrific. Totally reasonable, and it means I will be back. Though I saw no liquor (they might not be licensed to sell alcohol in this location), I will definitely be coming back for my cok, maybe some pelmeni I saw that I haven’t tried, and for any of the wide range of cherry products (seriously, Eastern Europe, I love you for that). The prices are so reasonable, I don’t feel like a tool when I go up to the counter to buy stuff.
Also, the place is family-​run and they are some really sweet people. Today was their grand opening, so they gave away free goodies and unintentionally gained a friend for life (anyone who gives me coffee is my friend). They are also taking special orders, so if there’s anything you want, let them know ! I hope they do well here in Campbell; I know there’s a large Russian community, but they have much more than just Russian food (lots of Croatian stuff, I noticed) so find your babushka and drag her down here. It might make her smile.
