Great market, had pretty much everything we were looking for to stock the house for the weekend. Very friendly, helpful folks working there too. read more

Great selection and very great service I've been coming here for 40 years and I've never been disappointed especially with their deli and their hot bar you never know what you're gonna find on there... Anything from hamburger patties or Pork chops Or chicken wings, Whole chickens, They even had a full on t-bone steak last time we were there. read more

I was so happy to find this place! A regular grocery store within the area was really nice to find. kind of small but it has everything you need. read more

It was late in the afternoon, and I didn't feel like eating more fast food; so, I stumbled upon this local grocery store for some salad and fruits. They offered plenty of options and everyone was kind and considerate. I had no issues finding what I needed for the evening and following day. Most importantly, after arriving back home from this California trip, I compared prices and everything was under what I'm paying for here at the big chain stores. For example, Pink Lady apples were $1.49 per lb., here $1.79 per lb. read more

What a welcome grocery store near camping at San Simeon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great location with extremely friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cheers to Cookie Crock Market. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute 'small' town feel supermarket.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Had what I needed and conveniently located. Prices were about average, at least in regards to surrounding areas. read more

Had a decent variety of deli and prepared foods at reasonable prices. Many grocery items available but the prices are jacked up so much it's a gouge because of the location so grocery shop in SLO or Paso Robles beforehand if you have a chance. read more

Definitely the best option for groceries in Cambria. Went to another store first, and left without buying anything due to limited items and very high prices. Good quality food that is reasonably priced. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and has great fresh options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Especially for a medium size CA coast grocery store. read more

It is very important to have a well stocked market in any small coastal town, esp. in Cambria which can go from a small town of locals to bursting with visitors in the summer. We went to the market and although some of the prices were higher than I'm used to paying, I'm thankful not to have to drive over 30 miles to a large super market like Albertsons in Morro Bay just to get some groceries. We vacation here multiple times a year and always rent with a kitchen, so this is our go to spot. Please support this local market. read more

This place is always fully stocked and I can find everything I need for additional snacks and beverages. When you're staying in San Simeon, this place isn't too far to get to and the only market that's close by. They have a full deli, produce, and liquor section but I like their chips I can't find anywhere else. The locals are always nice and there is plenty of parking. read more

We've been coming to Cambria for years and never once noticed this small grocery store located on top of the hill off Main St. For water and other drinks, we'd visit the liquor store or stop by markets outside of town on our way in. So glad to have discovered this place for some staples when we're in town for a couple days. Prices are a bit higher but the convenience is unbeatable. read more

Finally! They paved and slurry sealed their parking lot! I've tripped so many times prior and now it's freshly stripped as well! Nice.

This is a great little go-to grocery and open until at least 8pm or later most days. Good for last minute items you might have forgotten, or snacks to take with you for the day. Employees are friendly and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean store.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This market is so nice and especially nice to find when your new to the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The market is bright and clean and easy to find what you need.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They had a large selections of wines and spirits, breads just about anything you can want. It's a great location and everyone was friendly. read more

finally found a grocery store in cambria what a great place most needed lots of stuff

Friendly people, good choice of stuff, especially for such a small town. I should mention here that their Cookie Crock Vidalia Onion Mustard is quite good. Decent-sized parking lot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The whole shop overlooks Main Street and is easy to find.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This grocery store has little bit of everything as well as friendly staff. A great place to visit and stock up read more

Stopped here to grab some things I forgot to pack for my camping trip and I gotta say I was impressed, this grocery store is fully stocked with everything you need even for the forgetful camper. read more

Great deli for a small market. Produce is fresh and local, and a decent variety of choices in food. Prices are higher than average, but it's worth the convenience. read more

Great shop. Wonderful fresh produce and so much more. Really a little bit of everything.

Great fruit & veggie selection. Needed distilled water for CPAP machine, went to another small grocery store & 2 liquor stores but either sold out or didn't carry. The Cookie Crock Market had a 4 ft shelf of distilled water. Also picked a USB C charger! Win win read more

First night in cambria, came here and the store smelled. The store did not look clean.. shelves dirty. It probably works for the locals but definitely not a store I'd ever go back too, very expensive. Also the parking is on a hill, so be careful going out the wrong way. I was honked at and got the finger for making a minor mistake, lol read more

No other option in Cambria for groceries and it is expensive! Produce was good and selection was good but it was not cheap.

Nice market and surprisingly reasonable prices! For a small town, it was a great find.

Convenient little store, but they know they have the market cornered. Instead of partnering w the community to provide a fair price (fine w a mark up given distance and location) they are about 3X what an actual average price is across the board. We got a case of beer (12 of Pacifico), band aids, ibuprofen, neosporen, a pack of crayons, 2 coloring books and a water it was $70 went the other day for a two grocery shop it was $300. It's one thing to mark up items this gouging, all the elderly use the market and you are charging them a premium. How about we settle for 2X over market. read more

I did a bad thing! Burned myself to a crisp at the beach. We came here looking for aloe right before closing time only to find none on the shelves. One of the cash register guys said he hasn't seen it in a long time. We left immediately and found some the next day. After seeing some of the sketch reviews for this place I'd honestly be weary to return, even masked. read more

Too bad they don't highlight local products more effectively. I'm in this area several times a year and I'm always looking for cool new locally-made products to buy. This grocery store is satisfactory for a small town like Cambria. Local items of interest- MO's BBQ sauce, specifically Philthy Phil's, is one of my favorite sauces period. It's like 4.75 a bottle here but they HIDE IT from customers on the top shelf in the meat department. It's like they segregated it from the actual BBQ sauce aisle, makes no sense. Harmony ice cream was impossible to find at this location. Then on my last visit they had it. Not in the ice cream case, that would be too easy. They placed it in some side fridge with no special markings. Cattaneo and Ray's Beef Jerky. Not with the rest of the Jerky but they do have their own rack. Tip - Nice deli workers... read more

Cookie Crock Market - Hidden in the rack above the meat area.. Philthy Phil's is my favorite. - Grocery Near Me - Cambria, California

Found this market on Yelp and decided to visit to purchase a few personal items.. Great market in the town of Cambria... full service... friendly and helpful staff ... has everything that a larger market would have and more! Clean well organized and easy to shop... Great find! read more

This might be the only market in that part of town, but they certainly earn their business. Our cashier Brent was friendly and he could not have been any nicer. His recommendation for a local vendor was very helpful. It's clear that the people of Cambria are caring and lookout for one another. read more

Usually when we arrive in town my wife and I stop at this market to pick up bottled water, snacks, and anything way may have forgotten or need for the hotel room. Prices are high and variety is low but it's pretty much your only choice in town if you need something. They've got a nice selection of local wines from Paso Robles and they carry SLO coffee roasters k-cups. Plenty of parking. read more

There are not many market options in or near Cambria. Cookie's is a very good option considering Small markets. They have most everything you need from meat to diapers. Hey, your on vacation in one of California's most beautiful coastal areas. Enjoy read more

You want a market that has everything? Come Cookie! I've be been shopping this market since 1997 and these guys consistently expanded their offerings to cover all the bases. They have everything you may need or want. The groceries are excellent, the produce is great, the wine selection is out of this world. I don't know what some reviewers expected but obv they're not happy - could the problem be you, my negative reviewers? The service is solid. So next time, come to Cookies, relax, SLOw down, and enjoy your day. Life is beautiful. read more

One of the few markets in Cambria, this place is where one would do their daily shopping. There's naturally a very large selection of local (and not local) wines for sale. Some actually the same price as you would buy at the winery. Plenty of the good ol' jug wine too if that's your thing (yuck!). We didn't actually take the longest look around but it's your standard small town grocery store (with that small town markup) but it's the place to shop without going out of town. read more

Nice little market. Employees were friendly. Pricey for some products. The only market of this size in Cambria so your pretty much stuck unless you hit the health food store. They lose a star because I paid the most I've ever paid for a 12 pack of beer in my life. read more

A classic small Safeway-like market with a small deli with standard deli fair like potato salad. Very little gourmet or vegan or specialty foods are to be found here, this is the place for basics from wine to cheese to cereal. Good sized produce section. Store was clean and staff wore masks, checkout was quick. read more

We've a getting away place in Cambria for 20 years. Normally when I go to the Cookie Crock the cashiers aren't very friendly (since I'm not local). But today our cashier was Callie C and she was very friendly and kind. She even bagged the few things I had. Thank you Callie read more

For the size of Cambria, this is a good-sized grocery store/market. You want booze and a fairly decent wine selection? Milk, meats, breads, cheeses, chips, ice cream? As far as I could tell, all the essentials are here. Prices are probably a little bit higher here than in groceries located in bigger cities. But that is not necessarily unusual for small town businesses. It is not a gourmet market by any stretch of the imagination but it has everything you need and the selection is not bad at all. At least you won't be scrounging for old bread or $2 wines at 7-11. It is a real market. read more

Unless you need mostly packaged basics, this place will disappoint. Limited selection on fresh anything, despite being near many local farms. Most produce is from Mexico... practically zero organic anything. And for a store 2 minutes from the ocean, they had no local fresh fish. On the other hand, the people working there were nice. read more

Convenient but really pricey ! Be prepared to over pay for every item excluding maybe sale items. They do have a nice deli however very limited, and again very pricey. read more

This cute market has a wide variety of products and exceptional produce. It is more expensive that the chain stores, but not ridiculously so. The reason for my 3 stars are the rude and lazy male employees. Without exception, the deli, checkout, box boys all seemed to be unhappy with their jobs and had no problem letting everyone know. One checker asked another (quite loudly) "Are you really that stupid?" Conversely, the female employees were efficient and friendly. We've shopped there a half dozen times during this visit to beautiful Cambria. read more
