Love this store! Always enough people to help you out. The crowds are always minimal and the wait for gas is nothing. Everyone is happy and shopping is no stress. WAY different than any SanJose store I've been to yet. Love it in Gilroy! And the meat department is bomb, bakery is always well stocked or they will let you know when it will be out! read more

YES. It would be unwise of us to not shop here. The organic selection keeps growing which gives us more of a variety to choose from. They have great deals. We purchase 98% of our groceries here. The gas prices are great. The staff is usually helpful. Not that we really interact with anyone but the cashier. read more

All the camping gear just came out. This store is so nice!

great quality AND cheaper than the other gas stations! :) can't get better than this! read more

Costco - Department Stores Near Me - Gilroy, California

Love this Costco, just hope it's in MH :) What else can I say, they keep it fully stocked, staff is very helpful, great inventory, tire center is conveniently located. Having a gas station is a huge plus. It does get pretty packed on the weekends but the samples makes up for it :) read more

This location can get crowded, but if you go early there is no problem at all. They have a decent amount of pumps, and they always work. I dont think ive ever seen any out of order. read more

Thank goodness for the Gilory Costco restoring our faith!! We just about wrote off Costco after NUMEROUS bad experiences at the Salinas location. We were hopeful Gilroy would be the great store we know Costco to be and thankfully it was! Employees stopped to help us lift heavy items and load them in our car, the lines were short, cashier was GREAT! We'll definitely be commuting here from now on!! read more

This review is for the optical department. Upon learning they now accept my insurance I wanted to give them a try. They were able to schedule me the next day with the doctor and the staff was super helpful every step of the way. One lady (sorry I do not recall her name) with glasses was exceptionally helpful, she even helped me pick out a pair of glasses (which is not an easy task with my lack of nose bridge...) Same lady made the process so easy and costco's prices were so reasonable I ended up getting 2 pairs of glasses at an affordable price!! (This is not an easy task with my super high Rx index and lack of prominent nose bridge). They were giving out 10 Costco cards because they felt the contacts prices were too high but now they were able to bring the cost down!! And they don't nickel and dime you here! If a nose piece comes off or a screw comes loose they fix it no cost! (My prior optometrist charged five bucks!!! The piece couldn't cost more than a few pennies! Needless to say they lost a paying customer to Costco) Thank you so much Costco optical! Please keep it up!!! read more

I like all costcos but I like this one best. maybe it's because I hit it mid-day more often but it doesn't seem as packed as others. Staff is friendly and it just feels better than others. Great deals and great return policy. read more

A short drive to Gilroy to shop at this Costco has always proved worth while. Unlike some of the other locations I have been in the lines at the register are always shorter and the store it self seems a little less packed with people that tend to be in less of a hurry. I don't buy everything here as I don't want to have a years supply of certain items. The thing I like is they carry only top quality products. Buying things like paper towels, Detergent and such are almost always a better deal here. Just have to be careful not to over do it and break the bank when I'm here. read more

I like this Costco.. One of the nicer ones I might say. Generally parking is always convenient, people are rude as usual, but not as bad as other places. Been to the tire department once to drop off a battery (core).. Service was o.k.ish.. But after all it is costco, and I'll be back. read more

This review is for the Tire Center. They went WAY above and beyond to help my wife and me get back on the road when our little honda blew a flat on Memorial Day weekend. We had some issues pulling the cash out of my debit account (due to our tiny single-purchase limit), and Charles & the team helped us get creative... strictly legally, hah. But the point is they were kind and courteous as my wife and I got our financial act together. Thanks! read more

This Costco is heaven compared to all the ones in San Jose. There is always good parking unlike San Jose where finding parking is like going to battle. There's a whole lot less customers, the staff are a lot friendlier, and the items are in stock more often. The check out lines are never a mile long so you get in and out way faster than if you are in San Jose's Costco stores. read more

Just what you would expect from any Costco: Good prices, tubs of cashew nuts, and long lines of people with big shopping carts. Watch out for the EXECUTIVE membership PUSH. Costco pushed my wife into one of these when our card had expired. She was in line and they told her it would cost $50 per year and she would get a 2% rebate on her purchases or get $50 back, which ever was larger. They charged her $50 in addition to the $40 renewal. I came back and got my money back, but had to go through the "run around" from their customer service people. I guess I'm crazy in their eyes. Well it would take at least $2500 to get my 2% giftt certificate savings.... Save your money. read more

I've been a Costco member for 20 years and before that when they were PriceClub. I like their price on gas but they need to expand the number of pumps. With the recent rise in gas prices the line wait for gas is 30 minutes in Sunnyvale and 10-15min in Gilroy. I typically avoid going inside to shop, the cashier line wait at any bay area Costco is typically 20 minutes or longer. They lose 2 stars for the long wait lines inside and outside the stores. read more

This Costco is great because its on a little hideaway. It has a gas station and parking is pretty decent since its not really shared with anyone else. Lines move quickly and the aisles are wide enough for multiple carts. Don't forget the free samples! Great Costco! read more

Gas line was WAAAYYY long. It was a 15 minute to the pump. But....the good news is that the food line was nonexistent. Literally no one in line, but that's not to say they don't have good business. The ladies at the cash register were extra efficient! And the great news - super short lines at check out. Yeah! Almost no wait to buy read more

Generally, speaking, you can not go wrong with a swirly frozen, and a slice of pizza from their already prepared food area. If you find it too crowded, and noisy, take your food to go and mosey on over to some other store's garden center. Don't do what I did, and try to buy something perishable, and not keep it properly "cool". bummer, I should have brought or bought a cooler bag for those lil shrimps. oh, well, lesson learnt! & you are now fore warned! read more

Worth the drive shop at a less crowded Costco. I live in San Jose, but I drive the 20-30 minutes to shop at ease and be able to push around the cart without other shoppers running into me. The set up is the same as any Costco in San Jose, but I do like the less crowded checkout lines. read more

They move things around a lot. But, I guess that keeps you in the store longer. It's always good to go to this location. Clean. During the week the lines are pretty short. Well stocked. My regular stop. Of course I'll be back, it's on my way home. read more

I was hoping to be in an out in 30 min or less. The checkout lines were longer then normal. Make sure you check your receipt with your checker. I was not charged for 2 items in my cart, (my fault for not double checking) so I was asked to get in the returns line to pay for my 2 items not charged. Not a fan of this location. 30 minutes turned into 60 and I ended up leaving the 2 items on the counter. read more

It's a Costco. If you've been in one, you know what they're like. This is one of the better ones, in that the aisles are well-organized and well-stocked, and the lines, although busy, usually aren't too long. Gas is a lot cheaper than most other places, too. read more

I'm a fan of this Costco. Always wondered why, with so many farmers and Ag customers around, they don't have diesel fuel? Safeway in Hollister didn't for a long time then finally put it in a couple years ago- the attendant tells me they sell a TON of diesel. Costco- if you read this, please consider it, I know you have diesel at other locations. read more

I have been buying my RX eye glasses at Costco now for at least 10 years. I still have 4 old pairs at home. The last pair I bought along with my husbands went bad after like 6-8 months. The anti reflective coating failed on both glasses. We did not notice it until it was a year and they would not re-do our glasses. I have 4 old pairs with the same coating from Costco and they did not do that. They are all still intact and I am pissed. I will not go back to Costco for glasses anymore. My husband has since gone to a Dr. here in town. I will need to do it myself. BEWARE of the glasses you get at Costco. They are not the same as usual and do not hold up. I am very disappointed. read more

Customer service has gone downhill so much that this Costco deserves 1 star. Tires Department: I've been a member for over 15 years and bought tires from Costco for my two cars for more than 10 years. I bought new cars and got puncture on the tires of those new cars. I brought the cars to Costco to get the tires fixed. Costco customer service rep told me that per Costco policy, Costco wouldn't fix tires that were not purchased from Costco. I told the customer rep that I couldn't buy new tires from Costco, since the cars were new. Anyhow, no point to insist. Costco refused to help a customer that had been loyal for over 10 years. I went to America Tires Co which fixed the tire, no question asked. With another new car, my tire got punctured again. I went to Costco to see if things had changed. Same answer. Therefore, for the last 5 years, America Tires Co has been having my businesses. Optical Department: My wife bought reading glasses and ordered a brown frame. The result came back with a pink frame. The customer rep gave my wife a long hassle with numerous questions putting my wife's honesty on the table, and finally refused to help. My wife will have to come back with her receipt to prove her point. Keep going like this Costco and we will soon say farewell to you ! read more

My wife and I went to this Costco location yesterday just to shop but ended up eating at the food court on our way out. The food was the right temperature, nothing was under or over cooked, and the service was provided with a smile. We loved our experience and we'll definitely be returning! read more

I had a very negative experience with one of the folks out front working for Costco. I decided I would take my business elsewhere. Goodbye Costco card. read more

Don't be afraid to use Costco for sourcing the food at your wedding!!! I set up many blind taste testings for a recent park wedding, including Whole Foods, Safeway, and home cooking. Costco came out on top almost every time. *Be sure to pre-order the chicken salad, custom cut steaks, and cakes - just a day or two ahead. Appetizers: Italian cold cuts rolled around cheese, chips and salsa (Whole foods), fruit kabobs (made from Costco big bowls of cut fruit), olives and nuts. We added a bunch of pitted olives, sweet red peppers, and baby mozzarella from Whole Foods and served them buffet style. Salads: Costco's potato salad and Mediterranean chicken pasta salad beat the more expensive ones hands down! We added boxes of spinach with raspberries, pine nuts (from a bag in the dry goods aisle and a strawberry vinaigrette dressing) for the 3rd salad option. All were well received! I pre-ordered 100 filet mignon steaks @ 3/4" to be picked up the day before the outdoor park wedding. On the day I was picking them up, the butcher called to say that the meat was just too tender to cut that thin, so he would really recommend 1" or slightly bigger. Their standard cut is 2" on this meat. I okayed the 1" and am so glad I did (and so happy he called me to discuss it!). I picked them up on Friday morning for a wedding at noon on Sat., transferring them into 10 baggies (double bagged) with 3/4 cup of A1 Sauce in each bag (bought at Cisco as well). They marinated overnight and were so amazing for lunch the next day that even the vegetarian had to complement us (based on comments around him, not that he tried it himself). We had about 21 steaks left over with 97 guests, at least 10 of which were pure vegetarians. (Some people were worried that our three male friends couldn't cook up 100 steaks in a timely fashion, but with no experience and lots of enthusiasm, the steaks were cooked perfectly!) Rather than spend the ridiculous $8 - $15 per slice for a wedding cake, we ordered a white and a chocolate cake with no decorations except the edge piping. We kept them in the fridge on Friday and brought them out Saturday, added a few fresh flowers to each one and a couple of pearl sprinkles - and the guests raved! Honestly, with all of the other desserts on the table, we added a second table for these cakes and some frozen sorbets (it was hot!)...and still over 3/4 of the cakes were eaten over the course of the next couple of hours. The rest of the cake was eaten that night and the next day as we grazed on left-overs with out of town guests! With the money we saved on the cake, we bought a simple, small white cake from Nob Hill, put a cute cake topper on it, and spent the rest of the huge savings on lemonade, beer and champagne! What we didn't order from Costco: Flowers - because the flower person kept making a point of how the flowers might accidentally be put out for sale if we didn't get there on time. Instead, we joined the Flower Wholesale store on Trimble in San Jose and bought wholesale. We felt like the limited selection and lack of follow-through did not give us enough confidence during our attempts to communicate with the local Costco flowers to make it worth the risk of there being no flowers the day we needed them! Also, salsa and guacamole from Whole foods (because they are fresh and awesome), giant cans of beans from Sam's Club (adding Costco's big jars of barbeque sauce to spice them up), frozen lemonade and frozen, sliced garlic bread from Safeway (you'd think Costco would carry frozen garlic bread, right? but no). This was a DIY wedding and yet many of the guests have said that the food was the best they have ever had at any wedding or barbeque! Better yet, none of it required us to heat up a kitchen (the beans were in an electric roasting pan on the counter and the bread was put in tin foil over the coals). The only real prep was skewering the fruit, which was a fun way to involve the grandparents! Bottom line: I highly recommend utilizing Costco for your wedding food needs! read more

I really hate to write this review but the optical department is the slowest place ever. Since Costco is trying to gain EVERYONE'S business then they should hire enough employees to help all the people they're soliciting. Customer service sucks when you have to wait longer than an hour on the phone and 30 min. In person. read more

Ok so this review is for the Gilroy Costco optical department. Earlier this month on July 5th went to store to pick out some frames only. Picked them out and my son in law paid for them. Was told it would take 2-3 days and they would call me. So I waited till end of following week and then called again. Was told that they were ready to pick up. I asked them why wasn't I called? Claimed they called on July 7th & July 11th and left message. I told them I had NO voicemails and asked what number they called. It was right number but I didn't have any messages. So I went into Costco on July 17th to pick up frames and while I was waiting I seen some other frames I liked better. So they processed exchange because the new frames I picked out were same price. Now was told it would take about a week!!!!! Today July 22nd I just called and frames are ready!!!! Again no effing phone call!!!! Person told me they called on July 19th and left message!!!!! I told her I had no messages and asked her to please call my cell number after we hung up. Waited almost 15 minutes and called Costco back. She told me she tried but went straight to voicemail. I'm like WTF!!!!! . Anyways I cleared out my voicemails and then called myself from our home phone and now you can leave voicemail. Anyways after all this bullshit I will NEVER buy any frames OR lenses from this place ever again!!!!!! . read more

Love this Costo. Compare to the ones in sunnyvale, fremont, milpitas, and near the airport, this one is relatively UNCROWDED! And the gas station line is simply short! I normally gas up here before I being a trip to LA (where I usually stop by Kettleman City to get only 3gallons to make it to the next cheaper gas station in the LA area--usually Costco again :) or for Monterey! read more

Even when the lines look incredibly long, I've always gotten out of there fast. If you can brave the crowds, it's worth the trip. The quality of Costco brand products is comparable to name brand products. Just as good if not better. They have a good selection of healthy items. read more

I come here for the free samples and cheap food court prices. But there r also specific food items that can only be bought here that are to die for. read more

Gas here is $2.25. Downtown SF was closer to $2.90. Much better value here. Lines are about 8 minutes long. I recommend it. Got free air in tires too. Tire pressure was 29 psi but he put in 3 more psi stating that one should put in more pressure. Things you learn everyday day. Good service. read more

I really want to give 0 stars, but there's no option for this. Their Optical Dept is horrible. They not only didn't tell me I have to prepay at the time of ordering, but then they told me they don't carry my specific contact lens (although they offer the brand they only carry my lens in multi-focal lens). I question whether the person (i.e. the manager) who spoke w/their vendor knew what they were talking about. In the meantime a week has gone by & I could have just ordered the lens from an online vendor. Very frustrating. If you decide to work w/Costco, be sure to track their every movement. read more

Best Costco in the area. Somehow the store is less cramped but has the same items. Lines are never too bad. Love shopping here.

There is no CostCo at the address shown on the map. There are two other entries, find the one with CostCo at the north end of a segment of Camino Arroyo where it really is off of CA-152. The other entry shows it in the Premium Outlets, and it is not there. read more

Bad customer service - it took two trips to the store to get them to take back a broken camera they sold me, and I had to file a dispute with my credit card company to get them to do that. Ill shop at Walmart next time, It's just across the street. read more

Patricia Goyeau, the Licensed Hearing Instrument Specialist at the Gilroy Costco, is amazing! This isn't her job, it's her calling- for sure. She takes the necessary time to listen to her clients until she really understands their needs. She goes above and beyond, using her expert skills to best help those clients. Above all, she CARES! read more

Food Court is out of this WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Not only is it prices Amazingly low the food is outstanding!!!!!!! Best Pizza in Town hands down and The best value with polish dog and a drink for only $1.50. I eat here once a week having a big family it fits the pocketbook nicely. read more
