“The owners are there almost every day making delicious sandwiches. Great local Santa Barbara sandwich place if you want some good food. Been getting sandwiches here for years and they've always been kind. They also have great cannoli shells.”
“I love that we have this deli in Santa Barbara. Love being able to get some good quality grechka! The buckwheat “roasted” groats in Lazy Acres doesn’t compare. And they even have kievskiy tort! My favorite ?”
“So happy that this is here! My kid has moved to Santa Barbara so I now visit the area as often as I can. Instead of taking a cooler from home ...I stop in here to stock my hotel room with snacks and beverages. This store is HUGE!!! Tons of parking. Staff is super friendly and helpful (like any Trader Joes). Store is spotless and clean (like any Trader Joes) this is my "go to" TJ's in Santa Barbara (there is another one that is closer to our usual hotel but it's tiny and the parking is a bit difficult.”
“The PL Santa Rosa Chicken sandwich and the Smoked Salmon Bagel were fantastic. We got them to-go and ate them at a table in the wonderful park across the parking lot.”
“Santa Cruz Market has everything for typical Mexican cooking. Fresh vegetables and herbs for salsa. The prepared meats are great for tacos. Friendly employees, very kind cashiers, and macho butchers speaking Spanish. No dedicated bike parking, but one can easily find a spot to lock up. This place is densely packed and hard to move around in when customers are shopping so don't come here if you're in a hurry. Despite it's shortcomings with space, this is the one stop shop for ingredients to cook up a Mexican meal. Santa Cruz Market is highly recommended.”
“This is probably my favorite place to get ice cream in Santa Barbara, they have handmade bars for a very reasonable price, but I prefer to get it scooped into a cup, which is a little bit more, but soooo worth it.”
“New favorite spot for me and the bf!!! While it's off a busy intersection, the interior & exterior is decorated so beautifully you wouldn't ever notice where you are. Serene & peaceful inside & out. Water feature and fairy-like setting on the patio. & the best part: the service! So friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. Loved every recommendation so far. Will keep coming back”
“Tru county is great locally owned produce store. The staff is super nice. The store has fresh produce and groceries. Everything is well stocked and there is a discount section in the back. They have a wide variety of juices, breads, frozen goods, and other groceries available from local farms around Santa Barbara The parking is easy as they have their own parking lot.”
“Santa Barbara's best south asian grocery store. The friendly family who owns the store stocks everything you need to make your favorite Indian recipe. If you can't find it here, they'll order it for you. Must see this small long-time neighborhood store.”
“I feel like I’m not part of the cool crowd at this store. The kimbop (are whatever it is) is always out. I want some. Also, everyone is a self proclaimed vegan zen master of peace until they get to the parking lot then it’s gloves off, fight for your life, try not to get run over. Yesterday, I was in the store and it was super busy and they had some kid dusting the lights … dust falling down on everyone and into the air - as a person with allergies and lung issues I was disgruntled hence this review. I am not a vegan zen master and enjoy letting it out once in a while. Perhaps, limit the kimbop to one a person or here is an idea, order more and tell corporate to start having the kids in Thailand produce more, since that is where most of your food comes from these days. Why do I get so judged when I forget my bag, but nobody stops to read the labels on their food from TJ’s. TJs food notoriously travels many miles and often many continents. Like a brown paper bag is going to do more harm then the bunker fuel used to ship the cheap food over. Or the major amount of plastic used in packaging. Get a grip. But props to Charles Shaw. Ok, I’m headed that way now, the apple cinnamon Mochi better not be out too. And why does this store not carry more of the gluten free muffins my sister gets in San Diego? Are we not as good as them? And don’t worry I’m bringing my bag.”
“Fantastic spot for local and organic produce (as available). Good selection of fresh fruits & veggies as well as locally sourced honey, bread and other sundry foodstuffs. Prices are a little higher but you're paying for better quality produce than you might typically find at the grocery store.”
“Fathi is awesome. Genuinely, it's been a pleasure to have met and built a relationship with him. Great conversations and stories can be had there, along with a wide variety of your "grab and go" convenience needs on the Westside of Santa Barbara. The early bird DOES NOT catch the written here though!”
“The one star reviews are absolutely hilarious to me. Everyone that works at this store is great, and they do their job exceptionally well! No prices on the products, but that doesn't matter seeing as you're at a super small CONVENIENT corner store rather than your local Supermarket. I've seen some comments about people buying things close to the expiration date and all I have to say is read the expiration like the rest of us do before grabbing the item! Everything here is DECENTLY priced and CONVENIENT And especially for being RIGHT OFF THE FREEWAY. Hopefully this sways you from the random terrible comments!”
“I Love Foodland Market' although it is a smaller sized store, it is Huge in Quality Meats, Produce, and Awesome Staff. ?? *I think most people Assume this Market is for Hispanic Speaking Customers. However, I do not speak hardly any Spanish and have No problems Communicating when asking questions or anything else. Very Kind Employees ? Clean Store ? Great Variety!”
“This is probably my favorite place to get ice cream in Santa Barbara, they have handmade bars for a very reasonable price, but I prefer to get it scooped into a cup, which is a little bit more, but soooo worth it.”
“I was able to find smoked turkey leg which I use to make Hoppin' John. Also I found two other items which I have not been able to find in other stores: farmer's cheese and the Danish peppermint candies in the Jelly Belly bulk section. Thank you, Gelson's!”
“I love this corner store! Amazing selection of staples and more high-end or boutique ingredients, excellent staff, and great space to spend a long lunch break. i love that they work with local businesses and makers, and have a rotating schedule of sandwiches and breads from different bakeries in town.”
“Everything we got here was delicious--the blackberries were perfectly ripe, and the sourdough bread, cinnamon roll, and muffin were soooo good. I'm so happy we stopped here!”
“WHERE GOODNESS GROWS ? I worked here For 9 months as a deli clerk recently Nov 10 was my last day, anyways this particular Sprouts store is massive in size compared to other locations great options for food never had Boars ? Head until I worked at Sprouts. In every aisle you'll find good Vegan or gluten free cookies or a freshly made ? using Sprouts Brand Turkey what a Deal , or stop by the Meat ? department and try our one of many flavorful seasoned wings. I enjoyed working here and would love the opportunity to work here again...”
“Awesome Hidden Gem in Santa Barbara! This is a must visit to get some of the amazing food they cook here! It's also open later than most places in downtown Santa Barbara! And you can get almost any drink you want on your way out! Totally recommended!”
“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!!”
“(Translated by Google) Very good place recognized for the variety and quality of Fruits and vegetables. At The Berry Man you can make your purchases from the comfort of your home and they take care of taking the product to the place you indicate. Or you can visit the place to pick up your order and receive the best attention that is given to each of the clients.(Original)Muy buen lugar reconocido por la variedad y calidad en Frutas y vegetales.

“Great little market that carry all camping items you need but forgot at home. Price are reasonable. There was never a time we visited the store and did not find what we need for the weekend trip.Store is run by outside vendor, Rocky Mountain Recreation Company. Nearest full service supermarket is 20 miles away in Buellton. Not worth 2 hours of vacation time.Kids enjoy biking to the store by them selves buy ice cream/soda. Few time you will safe letting go to convenience store by themselves.”
“love this little market, the cashiers are always kind and helpful and there’s a great selection of stuff for it being so small. they seemingly have anything you need in a pinch: quick snacks, ice cream, lots of drinks, peanut butter, cereal, canned goods, even paper towels and toilet paper!”
“This store is clean and well organized. I’ve found that the stock is rotated appropriately. There is one man that works there (Tony) who is friendly and kind. The prices are fair. Very friendly and honest people.”
“Stopped here for a quick bite before we continued on the way to cemetery The breakfast croissant for me, and fried breakfast sandwich, for my husband, were good. First time here. We've been to Harry's next door and thought we were going to eat there but found out Harry's didn't open until 11am. We were an hour too early. But decided to go into Renaud's. We will be back.”
“I still have to go and check it out....Keep u posted ??Hell no, do not go to this place, shady, bunch of drunks, they do not take EBT, cash only. Previous reviews are wrong.I couldn't wait to get the hell out of there ?”
“(Translated by Google) Everything you were looking for I find it well clean and everything organized! and the owner very friendly(Original)Todo lo que buscó lo encuentro bien limpio y organizado todo¡! y el propietario muy amable”

“We were on vacation in Santa Barbara, and a friend asked us if we could bring some beer when we came over to visit.This little neighborhood market has a huge selection of all kinds of beer. And a good wine selection and a pretty good selection of spirits. It was also very clean and had friendly service.”
