“We love the variety of local, Latin, and international foods that we can find at this market. The staff is very friendly there. Breads and tamales are delicious and they have a variety of great cakes and inexpensive produce.”

“This was my first visit to this Vons location in Long Beach.It's pretty much in the only major supermarket in the downtown area of Long Beach. Parking is on the roof if you have a car but it also looked like a lot of people were walking in from the street so this is a great place to get groceries and lots of your daily use items. The store is decently sized and you're able to find a lot of things as a one stop shop.Make sure to sign up for loyalty club card so you can get discounts on items when they are on promotion. The supermarket itself is fairly big and there's a good variety of items throughout. Nothing out of the ordinary to report. Great market to come to so if you're ever in Downtown Long Beach this is where to go.”

“This one was good in a pinch! Needed a 24-hr pharmacy for an unexpected 2:30AM visit. The doc sent the prescription right over and even though the systems text messages told me it wouldn't be ready until 5:30AM I called them and asked them to push it up as the antibiotics I needed had to be taken right away. They agreed and told me as long as I got in there before 2:30AM (which is apparently when their systems reset) I would be able to get my medicine. I arrived at 2:25AM and got it in the nick of time. Feeling better already! Thank you 24-hr CVS!”

“Vons is the correct brand for this store, and the change should have been made over a decade ago. Anyone who thinks it's a downgrade is delusional as it's the same chain, Albertsons-Vons-Pavilions. Pavilions has a unique list of specifications that this location has never had, and furthermore wouldn't be appropriate (Pavilions today are basically just Albertsons/Vons stores with different ambiance, mega sized liquor departments and a outsourced seafood dept) Longtime Pavilions shoppers familiar with the chain would always find this to appear to be like a "bootleg" store since the Pavilions features and decor were stripped away over a decade ago. During the previous remodel it was downgraded and given a plain, cheap Vons interior layout and decor that lacked the ambiance of a real Pavilions. For some misguided reason there are many reviewers here who believe that the food is different between a Vons, Albertsons, or Pavilions when it all comes on the same exact truck from the same exact warehouse distribution center. They think somehow now the bag of Signature brand salad is somehow made with poorer quality lettuce and dressing because the sign changed? Really? The real difference between a Vons and Pavilions is obvious to anyone who walks into a real Pavilions like Seal Beach. Pavilions is the brand used for stores with massive, oversized liquor departments and wine cellars now - something that this store has never had and wouldn't be appropriate for the family oriented neighborhood. Pavilions also outsources the seafood department with a franchise of Santa Monica Seafood. Past that the meat is the same, produce is exactly the same, prices are the same, everything else is the same. All the changes being described to the assortment and pricing have happened at every other Vons, Albertsons, and Pavilions this year - the customers are just noticing it and making the incorrect assumption that for example the new spice aisle happened because the stores brand is changing. No longer will Pavilions shoppers walk into this store and be disappointed by its misrepresentation of that brand and what it stands for. They should have changed the sign to Vons or Albertsons a decade ago because that is what this store was then and still is today, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Another area that people don't seem to understand is that the more they use curbside pickup services, the more the store will convert from regular checkout to self checkout. Once again there is a misconception that the stores are slashing labor and costs when the reality is they're moving the labor from cashiers to order pickers. In the time a cashier can ring up two dozen customers they MIGHT be able to pull half of one order for a curbside pickup customer. How else would the stores be able to do this service without hiring lots of extra people to do all this excessive work because customers are too lazy to shop for themselves? Do you really think their unions would allow them to just eliminate the cashiers and replace with self checkouts? Of course not. Plus many of the cashiers that now go around and pick orders are happier with that job because they are less susceptible to repetitive strain injuries from standing in place for eight hours scanning your groceries. The stores that don't have self checkout like Trader Joe's? They also won't shop for you. The cost of curbside pickup is too high and if they left checkout alone they'd have to hire dozens of extra workers for the curbside orders and how do you think they'd pay for that? By raising prices for everyone else! I'm not going to pay higher prices because you decided you wanted someone to push a cart around for you and get everything on your shopping list. Self checkout is your punishment for using these convenience services, and frankly speaking both should go away because the stores are forced to create "first class" customers that get curbside pickup by creating "third class" customers on self chec”

“They open at 8am and close at 8pm. Money gram needs to fix these hours because surely the employees are getting yelled at, which i was told, by angry people about the hours posted. Get it together Google, money gram, or actusl location. Hope this helps change the hours for you all.”

“The pharmacist Robert was very obtuse and rude I have never been talked to and treated that way by anyone I know he has a job to do but his job is not to insult myself nor my doctor of 25 years I will never ever ever get my prescriptions filled at this pharmacy ever again and I will post and blog about it so no one has to undergo the treatment and rudeness I was given”

“GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE John in the electronics department went above and beyond. I was there to buy a phone case. I chose the one I wanted but they only had blue. I didn't ask him to look, but this gentleman said, "wait a minute" and he took me to another part of the department and there were more choices of colors! I got the color I wanted!! He was very thoughtful to do that, especially since I didn't ask. When I thanked him he was polite and unassuming. Yay for people like John in the world. Yay for my new phone case. I need it because I drop my phone a lot. 5 star service”

“Thank you Rana, Helen, and Chiqui for your excellent customer service! You were all so very kind in my little emergency! Thank you thank you thank you! My day would not have gone very smoothly had I not had your help today!”

“When in Cali, some of the best ice cream can be found here in Rite Aid. Thrifty brand ice cream has been serving California residents since 1940, and partnering with Rite Aid stores has not diminished their quality. Come in and try a scoop when in Cali.”
