393 Pier Ave, Oceano“You can find a nice burger grill inside this store. ( Burgers n More ) Pick up some good eats and a cold one right from the case. They make a peanut butter and jelly cheese burger that has some of the best custom crafted jam I've ever tasted. You can even buy a jar if you want.”
“This shop has a bit of everything. It's a great place to pick up some in-house made and ready to heat n' eat meals for those times you don't feel like cooking. There's a nice variety of baked goods, sandwiches, salads, soups, and desserts as well. Need any Italian grocery items? This place has just about everything you might need. They're always open. Staff is friendly and helpful. You should make this a destination if traveling or a local!”
“Conveniently located on the Mesa in Arroyo Grande offers an excellent selection of meats, prepares Santa Maria Style BBQ, general food items, and have quite a selection of wines. The market is always clean and organized.”
“Manny is one of the most knowledgeable people in the wine business. He knows the back story of every wine he sells and has a great palette and memory for tastes. Once he knows what wines you like, he will be able to suggest others you will enjoy from his extensive inventory from boutique wineries and limited special offerings from more well known producers too. The only negative is that he is often working alone and that slows everything down. If you just want to run in for a quick tasting or one bottle of wine, you may leave frustrated, but if you have the time to relax, taste, and listen to Manny's stories, you are likely to leave very happy and with a case of interesting new wines to take home.”

340 5 Cities Dr, Pismo Beach“I'm in grocery heaven. You'll easily fall in love with this store. It is gorgeous and a beach town attraction. You could have a girls afternoon here. They've even had whiskey tasting. There's a gift shop. For the love, check out the meat counter. You know, good girls love some good meat (well, I think the bad ones do too). Heck, all girls should get their meat on and this is the place to do it, even if people are watching. .....should this Yelp review be rated?”
“Their sandwiches are deliciously amazing.You can taste the super fresh ingredients. I asked for a lettuce wrapped tuna and it’s one of the best ones I’ve had. Just can’t beat their prices. I got to work through it on a sun dried tomato wrap it’s just too good to not brag about! ?”
“Always a pleasure to shop here. Huge place with fresh food, fresh meats, essential oils, decor, variety down every aisle and a super cool beer/cider/seltzer fridge wall.The area is a real one stop area located right next to the outlets. Great place. Note: the prices are on the higher end for most things. Enjoy!”
“A NY style Bodega store but without the cat! Easy in & easy out. Seems like a family owned business. A well stocked & small convenience store that sells staples like chips, candy, sodas, lottery tickets, and over-the-counter remedies. Very good liquor section. Lots of parking. People are friendly. Not sure if it’s open 24/7. Easy to find & get to.”
“Did not come here expecting discount prices. It's a convenience store! I came here for one thing, a 12 pack of Pacifico. They had both cans and bottles. What more can I ask for? Guy behind the counter was cool. No complaints from me.”

816 W Grand Ave, Grover Beach“My husband and I were having trouble finding a liquor store open on New Year's Eve due to power outage new our hotel. We're happy we found this place and had a very good selection of my favorite drinks.”
“They sell my favorite MMC mango rim paste and the Mexican candy they sell is super good! The guy I was chatting with was super nice and friendly. We talked about alcohol and he has some great recommendations! He recommended the Wall Street candy Chamoy Melons and it was a game changer! The staff is very helpful and the store is very clean and welcoming! Definitely will be back!”
“I will occasionally start running low on gas on the way to SLO, this place saves me every time. Parking can be a bit difficult if you need to stop in to the store, but the prices on gas are always some of the best in the area.”

Courtland St, Arroyo Grande“Cheapest gas I could find at the time.
Coming from Florida and driving across the country the cheapest gasoline I purchased was under $3 and the most expensive, until we got to California, was under $3.65”
“At first I thought Third Base might be a scam but the reviews overall looked pretty good. I have to say I'm very happy. My bottle of rare bourbon was packed and protected perfectly. Shipped all the way to the east coast without any issues. Great prices and fast order processing. I will definitely order from them again!”
8AM - 10PM
Pismo Beach“We love this deli and grocery. The food is fresh and there are some truly gourmet options. We usually all order a custom sandwich (Proscuitto is my go-to), and add a lovely side salad to round out the order. Make no mistake: this isn't subway. This is truly a top-of-the-line deli experience, with a dessert selection that's worth the trip alone. Lemon cheesecake, Tiramisu, the list goes on and on (actually it doesn't because it's all fresh so get there early). This place is more than sandwiches, it's fresh pasta, wonderful salads and a choice selection of wines and beverages... not to mention McConnel's ice cream! If the family can't decide what to eat, take them to DePalo's where there's something delicious for everyone!”
“Stop in here to get my Fireball & Cream Soda & Sunflower Seed Kernels. An they didnt have my Kernals. An the guy behind the counter wasn't friendly at all.”
“Absolutely delicious burgers, chicken sandwiches & tacos!!! The ownership just changed hands but the food is still amazing. They have awesome selection of snacks, candy, and coolers for reach-in drinks.The Avila burger is huge and loaded with delicious toppings. The fries are Crisp and hot. The Carnitas tacos are homemade the night before and the salsa really makes it.”
“It's a liquor store...They do what you would expect.However, given their proximity to the beach, their prices could be much higher.The employees are all super nice, friendly, and welcoming.No reason not to go here, if you're trying to quickly pick something up before you go on the dunes.”
