Walmart Neighborhood Market

A bargain shoppers delight! Grocery store items with Walmart prices! What’s better than that??? I found everything on my list and more! Once I checked out, my total shocked me!!! Right under $ 40! I would have easily paid more than $ 60 at a regular (over priced) big name grocery store. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. I hope this idea catches on and we see more of these Walmart grocery stores open up. I would do my weekly shopping there guaranteed!

I went here all the time due to the fact that its closest to my house besides Whole Foods but can say after today that I probably won’t be going back. I needed to find some au jus. I went to the sauces and seasoning aisle where I would assume it would be. Wasn’t finding it. Asked a worker on the aisle if she knew where it was. She wasn’t sure what au jus was, told me it’d probably be on this aisle. Thanks. She also told me to go to customer service if I didn’t find it and they would tell me where it was or even send someone to get it for me. Ok! Why not. So off I went to customer service. There were two people. One was helping an elderly man and the other was on the phone. When she got off I was still there and she started going on a rampage looking for something in the back area where customer service is. She knew full well I was there but I was being ignored. Maybe she was dealing with something, i don’t know, but communicate that with your customers who are right there in front of you. Two other people walked into the area to stock, or look for something and no one helped me! One young lady looked at me almost apologetically but was continuing stocking. Maybe it’s not her job, but make it clear to someone who’s job it is that someone had been patiently waiting. So after a while I left and was going to ask one of the check out clerks. She also didn’t know what au jus was. I explained that no one could help me and so she went off to ask customer service herself. She came back and said that they said to try aisle 28, the aisle I was already on, and that they weren’t sure they had any. I’m sorry, but how is that helpful? Don’t you kind of need to know what you’re carrying? And I know for a fact that Walmart carries at least two different kinds of au jus if only I could find either of them and someone could just help me go look and not treat me like I’m blind or dumb. Anyways, I know it’s just all over a $ 3 purchase but it comes down to the principal of customer service and I felt like there was none. Just a lot of confusion and very hands off help, and some didn’t even acknowledge me. But, just another reason not to go to Walmart! Like we needed another!

Nice concept. Carries most items just like a supermarket but does lack a fresh seafood section… plenty of other choices n selections. Convenient location. Extremely competitice pricing probably equivalent to Sams Club.

This the worst Walmart I ever shopped. Totally rude and ignorant store manager Meghan. No experience in handling customers. Need to be replaced. Rude and lazy staff. The worst customer service. Terrible resupplying, items missing for weeks. The pharmacy will sale you medications ready to expire. That’s how this Walmart will loose customers, after all Rite Aid and Walgreen are nearby. ZERO STARS !

Nice location on Hwy 111. Just kind of difficult to navigate through the checkout area — seems crowded. And, no bags? Maybe bags are not provided in this city? I know some cities don’t allow them, but as a tourist, that was pretty dang inconvenient. Went through self-​check and then had to put each item into the cart and take each item out and put it in the car and then carry it to my hotel room. Really a hassle. I guess it would be nice if an employee were around and could explain it, but then I guess that’s the point of self checkout.
I liked the wide variety of organic fruits and vegetables.

When you use the self checkout aisle the computer always says unexpected item in bagging area when is just what you scanned and you have to wait forever for somebody to come over and Clear it. I do love the pharmacy staff and they are very helpful and never a long wait to get your prescriptions

It’s very convenient & easy to shop, but I don’t like how they set the price. If you compare to Walmart Super Center, $ 0.5 ~ $ 1 more expensive at Neighborhood store. That’s why I could find merchandise what I wanted. I wish Super Center & Neighborhood store offer the same merchandise for the same price.

I went to The Walmart Neighbor Market after the continued frustrating service at Haggens. Pleasantly surprised. Employees are very helpful, friendly and curtious. It really was a nice experience. Prices are awesome compared to Haggens. The store is really clean and appears to be well stocked.

The pharmacy is always a problem. If you call in a refill, make sure you get the name of whomever you speak to (not the automated refill). I called in to speak with someone and it rang 20x before answered, put on hold, told me I could pick it up in 2 days. I show up they tell me they never had record of call. Only 2x have they ever gotten the prescription right. Take your business somewhere else, they don’t seem to care.

This place is great! The prices are incredible and the staff is friendly and helpful. It’s never crowed when I shop which is a plus… For me lol

This rating is for the pharmacy. I am still recovering from my old pharmacy and watching the train wreck that is Walgreens in PD. I have had a medical issue this past month and have been in alot of pain. Nancy, the pharmacy manager saw me the first day I went there and remembered how much pain I was in as I waited for my medication. The doctor gave me a tapered dose, so when I ran out and needed a refill, my insurance was refusing to fill it until 5 days after my last pill. There was a whole process I had to go through, but I did it because I had to! I was desperate. Nancy was so sweet and helpful. She went ahead and gave me my medication after confirming I had done my part, and knowing the insurance would approve it the next day. She didnt have to do that, but she knew how important it was for me. Its so rare to find a pharmacist these days that truly cares. I’m so happy with my new pharmacy home. And after experiencing Walgreens, its a breath of fresh air! If you are looking for a new pharmacy to try, I highly suggest this one. They are on time, friendly and helpful! THANK YOU NANCY!!!

This Walmart Neighborhood Pharmacy is awful. My meds are on automatic refill. They never automatically refill it. This last time I called ahead of time to make sure it was refilled and ready to be picked up. When I got there to pick up my prescription, the pharmacy was closed for lunch. So I had to wait for 45 minutes until they got back from lunch. Then they told me that they were out of stock and they wouldn’t have it for another 5 days. They then somehow came up with inventory that they apparently had even though they said that they were completely out of stock. So after 20 more minutes of negotiating, begging, etc., I was given enough meds for 3 days even though they wouldn’t be able to fill the prescription for 5 days and they had enough to cover me for 5 days. Again, before wasting hours driving over there and having to hang out until they got back from lunch, I was told on the phone they said my meds were filled and ready to be picked up. This same scenario has happened with this pharmacy and different meds for different people over the past 2 months. I will never use them again!

Recently moved to the desert. Discovered this place. I got pretty excited about it. l like Walmart just hate going into a actual Walmart because it takes so long to get thru one when needing a few groceries. Because any super Walmart are so spread out. It’s not huge. So it’s easy to get in & out.

I was so happy they opened a Walmart mini next to my neighborhood. I was feeling ripped off by the other chain stores in the area and traveling north for cheaper prices. Ever since Fresh and Easy closed which I miss it’s been a challenge. With that being said let’s talk about Walmart. Well it was nice and the employees were very friendly in the beginning. Now there just rude and pissed off. I noticed they want to push you to the self checkout, and I said sure. So started checking out and my last item was a twelve pack of beer. Surprise surprise. You can’t buy alcohol at this lane sir. You need to check out over there. Wow that sucks. Why didn’t you check my basket or even ask me if I had alcohol? Well I made it through waiting in another lane that wasted 15 minutes of my time and feeling weird watching my Basket of groceries getting warm, but I made it through. For some reason I noticed milk spoils faster then average. Go’s sour 10 days before the exp. date. My frig works great holding a temp around 38 degrees so don’t think it’s my frig. I talked to the manger about this problem and he told me it’s the vendor issue and he would be kindly to replace the milk anytime. Well I on gallon # 3 returned and I just stop buying milk there. I’m also wondering if it’s a vendor problem why doesn’t the milk spoil when I buy it at the Monterey store. Should be the same vendor you would think? I’ve noticed a lot inventory sitting out in the isles to be shelved. Maybe this store doesn’t have enough refrigerated space in the back and goods are spoiling. I notice the meats don’t hold long and a box of corn dogs recently purchased tasted like they defrosted at one point and refrozen again. Ok I’m done bitching and if you wanna take a chance go for it. I still shop there but certain items I won’t buy.

I guess I was not in the same store that everyone else was in, because I didn’t find this store friendly at all. I noticed two signs for mangoes one said 69 cents a pound and the other said 69 cents each. I tried to get someones attention. I approached six employees that were not doing anything except talking to each other. I tried to get their attention but none of them would answer me. Finally an employee that was at the end of the aisle came over and told me they were 69 cents each. She also immediately changed the wrong sign. After I checked out and was leaving the store I noticed the same six employees were still standing around and not doing anything except talking to each other. I realize employees need to talk to each other, the problem is when they think it’s more important to talk to each other than it is to take care of their customers.

Stopped here after shopping at Target. Very clean and well stocked. Great prices. And wide variety of groceries. This IS NOT a regular Wal-​Mart, just more like a grocery store and pharmacy. Sales people very nice.

I don’t live near this store, but it was on my way home, and we needed milk. The store is clean, and the flow works. There are no shoes, clothing, or toys here, but there is a pharmacy, and more then enough fresh and frozen food to fill anyone’s larder. The associates seemed very happy with their positions, unlike any super center. This neighborhood store is the perfect size for this area of town.
I would have given it a 5 star rating, except no store is perfect. I wasn’t there long enough to explore each area.

So impressed with this walmart! Convenient, organized, AND friendly! The staff is all SO nice and helpful, which is rare to find, (especially at walmart) store is clean and well set up. 5 stars and 2 thumbs way up to this desert addition!!! Thanks!

We love Walmart!
Glad to see them open another one.
This is a Mini-​Neighborhood Walmart that just opened in January, 2014!
It’s in an upscale area of Palm Desert.
It has a nice Gluten Free section that we liked a lot and found our favorite things in. They sell a lot of VAN’s products!
But it does not have an automotive section.
They do not stock the Scott Blue Shop Towels that are the best and we buy lots of. We would have to go to the larger full Walmart for that.
The grocery area is a large part of the store as well as the drug department.
It really seems like a large Grocery store with a Pharmacy.
Wished that they sold more Organics and Healthy stuff in the Grocery Dept at the great Walmart prices so that we are not held captive by overpriced Whole Paycheck (Whole Foods).
Free and easy parking here.
Aisles are wide, and store is bright.
