More than just a grocery store.SPD's connection and involvement with life in Nevada County is evidenced by their continual community support of worthwhile projects that benefit everyone, even if you don't shop there. SPD also hires the handicapped and disabled, which requires extra management attention but they do so gladly because of a commitment to the community. It would be hard for me to justify not shopping there, if I could live locally again. SPD is First Class.

SPD is not the cheapest (unless something is on sale, then it's probably the cheapest around) BUT... they have the best produce and butcher department around by far. No matter what, if you want a fresh steak, pork, fish, etc... SPD.

Great little store. Great service, cheerful employees, good selection, but I've bought expired salad kits that were in the cooler twice already. Check the salad kits you may find brown lettuce.

We just moved in town. This market is full of friendly employees! Great market to pick up some quick items or shop for the week or so.

LOVE this store. I can find items in SPD that I cannot find in other stores. Sometimes I find a variation of a product I normally buy but didn't know existed. Impressive for a local market in a small town.

Nice to be back, times have changed! The market is great, still but the bread was a bit stale we got (Dave's) and the deli meat was really not the best.

I love this grocery store! It might not be the fanciest grocery store in town, but I think it’s the best. I know people are worried about this store because of Target opening next door, but the selection and quality of foods isn’t comparable. At SPD, the selection of foods is top quality — from the produce section to the meat section to the deli and bakery sections. Mostly, I love that the store is an Independent Grocer and locally owned!! I’m happy to continue to support our local grocer!

Local store in Nevada City and Grass Valley. Great butchers for you meat eaters with local ranches cuts. Great produce for non meat eaters, along with some vegan choices. Staff is helpful and kind.

I am so over EVERY business in this town closing earlier and earlier. SPD used to stay open until 10:00 pm, then closing time changed to 9:00 pm, which was disappointing, but tolerable. This evening, we ran over to SPD at 8:20 pm because we needed a few things, and the store had closed at 8:00 pm. Come ON! This has gotten absolutely ridiculous! There is a lot of online misinformation stating that SPD is still open until 9:00 pm, which is frustrating. I love the store, but it doesn't do those of us who can be there early in the day any good. I realize that Target just opened, but they have snacks, they are not stocked with decent groceries or a meat counter; not that I would have gone grocery shopping at Target, but you've effectively given your business to them. We hadn't planned to grocery shop at Target on principle, but you've forced us to. This has got to be one of the least sound business decisions you could have made, especially since warmer weather and longer days are imminent. We would have gone to SPD in Nevada City, but BOTH stores are now closing at 8:00 pm. It's so disappointing that SPD, a longtime favorite in this area, can no longer serve the whole community. Everyone says to "shop local," but businesses in this area make it increasingly impossible. Shopping for groceries in this area is already difficult enough. We are regularly forced to hit up at least two different stores to get everything we need. Now we're forced to go to Auburn or Roseville, especially those of us who can't be in your store at the crack of dawn. We hope closing at 8:00 pm is not permanent. You're serving yourselves, not shoppers who have been loyal to you.
