Grocery Outlet Bargain Market

Can not beat the prices. Seem to rotate brands, products.
Customer service is excellent.

Always the best place to buy. I could not afford to shop like I do at Grocery Outlet. Don’t tell anyone my secret!!!

If you bring your five dollar off coupon in for a frozen turkey don’t think you’ll get to use it because they are putting their Foster Farms frozen turkeys under a sign that says «fresh» and they won’t honor it. The turkey is still frozen. You could’t take it home and cook it the day you buy it. This is called «bait and switch» which is illegal.

I am here at least twice a week. This one is great for wine, and frozen goods. If you look hard enough, you can find some good deals. Especially if you get things that are within a month of the expiration date.
If you find something that you love, be sure to buy a bunch of it, because it maybe doubtful to find it again.

Been shopping Grocery Outlet for YEARS in various towns. Seems to have been a bumpy transition in SR with the new owner. Oh, there’s MUCH MORE inventory; but he took over from a very friendly, community-​feeling grocery staff who made you feel happy to shop there. That was lost for quite awhile and has not fully recovered – I almost quit coming many times. Since the new ownership, the turn-​over has been notable (what’s wrong with this picture?) and the staff they’ve had have been (except for a few) cold, not customer friendly, – one kid stocking snarked me because I didn’t put an item back where he wanted it (I guess). The other problem is there is a CONTINUAL problem with many items not being priced – you have to have it checked and then make your decision. They always say not enough help is the reason?! More inventory, less customer service, often there are great deals but some items are priced pretty high. It heartens me, however, to realize that there are more friendly and professional staff being hired, lately. I miss the old days but still appreciate having a Grocery Outlet near my home, (though I still often shop RP and sometimes Petaluma where these problems are minimal or don’t exist in a noteworthy sense).

This is the worst grocery outlet.
I started going there every since they opened. I buy lots of grocery and lots of olive oil. Most of my credit card purchases
were from there. This has all changed. Now I no longer go there.
I went to return some boxes of chocolate wafers that I bought, the daughter of the owner, wanted to show off in front of the employees, had no respect for seniors, she said I will not take them back, neither exchange them. Do you mean to tell me the opposite of what you advertise, where is the satisfaction guaranteed and that I can return anything with my receipt regardless of the reason for my return. I have owned businesses and always made my customers happy, they support my business and pay for some of my expense. Now I go to Costco they are great at what they do and about returning things, Costco beats everyone.
Welcome to the world of aggression Grocery Outlet, make money while you can. Now you know this is very wrong, false advertising is also wrong.

Great employees they work hard. My wife and I have been shopping here for over 6 years, staff is alway great. As for you lazy cry baby Bi%#h ‘s who are too Fu%#ing lazy to bag YOUR own groceries, grown up and do it yourself self. Seriously if you lazy ‘s can’t handle u should be shopping at Safeway.

Best place in Santa Rosa to purchase good wines for Great prices. John is very helpful in the wine department. John suggested two white wines that I have now tried and they were great! Being a red wine enthusiast, that means something. First I tried the Pennywise 2012 CA Sauvignon Blanc, a fruity, smooth, but a crisp wine that is perfect when the temperatures soar, and at just $ 3.99 a bottle, in incredible bargain when I saw its online price of $ 14.00! The second one was a chardonnay, Indigo Eyes 2013 CA. It too was mildly fruity, smooth, not overly oaky and a great buy for $ 3.99 for a Napa Chard!
Note that both of these wines are in high demand at this store, and inventory varies. Also worth noting, GO will give you 10% off your purchase of a case of wine, thats like getting one bottle free.

Looking for feedback from anyone that might have worked here. I am considering them for employment. Hourly rates, work environment, etc.

Just recently discovered this place. Lots of good deals here — especially on wines. They get broken case lots and such from local wineries at amazing discounts — found a red blend that sells for $ 19.99 for just $ 4.99 — bought a case! Tried a few of their rose wines — haven’t found one I liked yet but the experiment at $ 5 – 7 was well worth it. Many of their every day items are substantially less than other grocery stores — milk, fruits and vegies etc. You won’t find a wide variety of brand selection and might not find everything on your list — but the prices make it well worth the extra stop. That is if you are retired like me!!!

My husband and I love this place. Not sure what we would do with out it. Most of the time, the groceries are cheaper here than at Walmart. Look for the red tagged items and you will save a bundle.

They used to have the most amazing deals. Within the last 6 months, the prices on everything keeps going up, up, up. The store is always dirty. And the employees are not very friendly. It saddens me. This used to be my fav. Store. I was there 1 – 2 times a week. Now I go maybe once a month. I miss the way it was.

Place smells like a litter box every time I walk in… not sure what that’s about.
Yeah, the potential deals are what keep me coming back, but wow – this particular location has the WORST cashiers. They never help bag groceries. Like, literally. Never help. The worst brat rang me up recently… I was packing my bags as she rang me up, but then I had to stop so I could swipe my debit card. She just sat there, watching, not helping/​doing her job. Then she let me continue bagging my groceries as she started ringing up the next guy’s items, mixing them into my stuff.
Customer service fail…

I have been shopping here for 4 years. Found I really save a whopping lot of cash. I live close so shop frequently. My kids live down south close to Santa Maria and when I would visit I would go down to SM and shop at the SM Grocery Outlet. Store laid out similar and priced similar and is fantastic. Now my girls are driving about 30 minutes away from their homes and shopping there 1x month. They are saving a ton of money and they love the new Organic foods offered. Me I don’t care so much if it’s organic of what, as so many «organic» products are not. Love the changing foods, but you can get serious deals on canned vegies, canned fruit, cookies, cracker, snack foods — I love the Redding sour dough bread — and fresh fruit is spotty but apples are mostly good, bananas 4 for a $ 1. I buy fresh lettuce, tomatoes, 2 huge potatoes $ 1 and my hubby and I share one. I buy spinach, avocados, Asian pears (which my parrot scarffed), strawberries, black berries (sometimes $ 1.99). Dryers ice cream $ 2.99 ½ G, and much more. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT.

the rating is mostly due to the wine section but the food is also greatly priced and worth checking out if you are not looking for a specific brand or item. The people are extremely friendly and helpful. Frank the wine guy is one of my favorite people there and is very helpful in his section as well as other areas. Be careful! This place can make you an alcoholic with all of its inexpensive prices and great wines!

I started shopping here because some friends of mine recommended it. I go here and half the time I get exactly what I need and half the time I have to accept making another stop. But if you just need some milk and eggs, its the place to go.

I really love my Grocery Outlet. Beware you cannot do 100% of your shopping here. What you can do is find gems of food items priced crazy low. They range from normal staples to amazingly low priced items you would never buy at full price. A lot of items are close to expiration so keep your eye on that. In most cases the expiration date really does not mater any way.
Do not be afraid to shop here it is not a slummy place to shop. Make it your first stop and finish your list at your fave grocery store. You will save money. And better yet you will find way cool high quality items much cheaper than sale prices than any other store.

I guess I can’t give 5 stars but hey, I love this place. Other than some of the people I seem to run into-​please take a shower before you leave home, and buy some deoderant while you are here!
It is fun to find deals and try new things. I mean come on, if I fill a cart at Costco it’s going to be $ 800-​$ 1000. At GO it’s under $ 200! and I don’t have to buy bulk! I know. Not apples to apples but it’s closer to home and fun regardless.

This store is fast becoming my favorite Grocery Store, and I go here first before anywhere else. They are getting a great selection of healthy foods, including many gluten free fresh, frozen and packaged items. Which is a huge help to me.
Organic fruits and vegetables are popping up more, and organic frozen chicken breasts. I bought some So’Fella waffle mix, which is usually very expensive… a g-​free, rice and bean flour mix that is killer.
I highly advise stopping here first for stuff. Even before Trader Joe’s.

Grocery Outlets (in general, not just this one) don’t seem to have *quite* the epic assortment of deals they had even three or four years ago anymore (the pricing is rising to more in line with Safeway), but it’s still reliably the best place to get canned fruits and veggies, condiments, bottled sauces, soups, oatmeal and various other not-​very-​perishable things. Then there’s still a handful of rotating epic deals on meats, cheeses, frozen stuff, juice, wine, etc., enough so that when you put it all together it’s still easily worth a run once or twice a month.
5 stars mostly because this place isn’t dickish about bringing in a backpack like certain other locations who shall remain nameless are.
