Been coming here for several years and have recently noticed a substantial increase of prices on many things following change of ownership.

Prices are good they don't always have everything you want but you get good service clean

The only reason I don’t give 5 stars is that I’m not usually impressed with the produce. It’s not bad or anything, it just doesn’t seem as fresh as I prefer my produce to be. It can be hard to preplan your trip because they don’t carry certain items consistently. That’s just the nature of the store and probably why it’s so much cheaper than the other grocery stores! However, I always go when I have extra time to browse because I love finding new items that you’d not really think about. They always have outstanding deals on seasonal items which is my favorite part! I buy my hair products here because I need high end products that are usually way to expensive for me to buy and extremely frustrating. They have a very large selection of really good quality hair products that keeps me happy every trip I make to this store! The employees are unusually friendly which I find is so rare now days! Please please keep the nice employees around! I can’t take many more rude encounters I endure at the other stores I’m forced to visit. Parking is plentiful, hours of operation are good (except if you say you close at 10 I expect to be let in even at 9:55 to grab something I may really need. It’s happened several times I show up with 15 - 20 minutes before 10 and the door is locked. Close when you want just stay true to your posted hours so I don’t waste my time. Very much appreciated!). Definitely worth coming to shop at this store!!

Great prices. And every time there are a few absolute fantastic deals. I hit up their dried fruit and snack section, get organic milk for not much more than regular milk, fruit and veggie section is decent and typically rotate some great deals through. Always find good cheese and sliced deli meat. They have cheese in two sections - one in back and one near wine. And I love their drink selection. Plus good deals on rice, canned food, frozen meat. Always trying something new.

so sad. I've been going to Grocery Outlet up and down CA from San Diego to near Mendocino over a hundred times since they opened the first ones in SF. Never have I walked out with only 3 items until this one. I didn't see any fire sale dollar items, the selection seemed limited (think the store is smaller) & was missing ambiance. I was just stopping through Santa Barbara for a pitstop thinking I'd find a snack to hold me til dinner & it made for a very below average experience - a bit depressing as a bargain hunter to find absolutely ziltch! ?

We go once a week and I usually stock up their Le Croix. Disappointed to find out the new owner will not be carrying them anymore according to a worker I asked. Store is looking more organized and cleaner.

It’s a great store with great prices, but the outstanding issue is people will be backed up in lines into the freezer isles on just one or two registers. We stand there looking disappointed, waiting and asking the employees to call for a code one opening another register by the time you stand there for 10 to 15 minutes waiting. They finally open another register and everyone else who has not been waiting you watch walk out the store ahead of you after you stood there frustratingly , knowing that there was no need for you to stand there. If there was an awareness, trained into the employees to call for a code one, when there’s more than 6 to 10 people unnecessarily standing in line while there are 3 to 4 extra employees throughout the store. It happens almost every time it would be awesome if it didn’t.

I do not know why but the broccoli here is unusually reliably fresh Better than some places. Not what I would expect from a discount food store. Sausages are cheap so that is good as well.

I've shopped at many of their stores throughout Southern California. I was really surprised that the prices here at the Santa Barbara store were so much higher than elsewhere. It was also pretty disorganized. I found honey in 3 different places in the store. Not easy to find what you're looking for and often the help didn't speak English.

Great place for great prices; $ less than what you'd pay at regular grocery stores. Produce; Very fresh cherries, at 2.40/ lb (about a month ago) were delicious! HUGE strawberries, super fresh, about 3 weeks ago. Produce is fresh! The checkers are always kind, and friendly.

Unconventional market with really good prices. I've described this site as the TJ Maxx or Ross of grocery stores. Great wine selection and if you are patient enough to search the wines carefully you'll find some great wines for amazing prices. Why 4 stars instead of 5? The produce department is really small and the quality of the fruits and veggies isn't great.
