Turns out, they have an app now. Idk why I have to be in a secret club to get the best prices on groceries from a place called Food4Less, but I found this out at checkout after shopping the aisles and wondering why the food doesn't cost less here anymore. Dave's Killer Bread is the same price it is everywhere else, a cabbage head cost me $2.71, and a package of grapes $6.99. I should have searched the app before. If McDonald's has the nerve to do it, should be far fetched for this place lol. Anywho, this visit the store was clean and not super duper packed! They actually had several checkouts open with NO line. The parking lot however was kinda busy which is weird because lots of people were chillin in their cars but yet, the increased number of eyeballs watching was comforting because that's more people looking out if things get weird. idk I get paranoid in public at times lol but especially at places like food4less. All in all good visit, they have a big store with a large selection idk how good the deals are but it's also in a decent neighborhood I'd say it's worth a visit. read more

Food4Less - Groceries - Grocery Near Me - Signal Hill, California

The customer service here is shit. The cashiers never greet me. I think it's because I'm homeless. Everyone else gets a nice "hello" or "hola como esta". Me? Nothing. AlI get is an angry glare and the price barked at me. read more

Love food4less a one stop shopping trip, prices are reasonable. The store was clean and well maintained. Will definitely recommend and return soon read more

Food4Less - the inside of a grocery store - Grocery Near Me - Signal Hill, California

I'm so torn about this place. It gives me Kroger products without the inflated Ralph's price. It comes at a cost. The parking lot is always full of carts. I'm not criticizing the store for this. It is the people. They don't return their carts to the corral. This makes parking really, really difficult. You know what else does it? The people that seem to walk around lost in a daze or others trying to sell things from their car trunk. Be ready for a three ring circus in the parking lot! Inside the store, there is the usual Food4Less aisles. Not poorly stocked but, as with many Long Beach stores, there are staples that are missing. These are things you can't live without and must go to another grocery store to get it before you run out. Typical of most stores in the area. You are ready to check out. Be mindful of your timing. Coming here directly after work is going to have you standing in long lines. Only about half of the registers are open. Do I blame management? Or is it they cannot find a lot of qualified people? Can it be they have limited employees to spread over a full day? Hard to tell these days. So many factors that I'm just going to stick with the facts. Long lines coincide with rush hour. Then, there is that trek back to your car through trash that litters the parking lot and abandoned carts in random place. Can't people put the carts in the corral anymore?!? I'm not telling you to avoid the place. Just be aware that this place has gone downhill over the years. read more

I just came to buy something quick but I couldn't help but walk around and see all they ever have every time I come here. I love the variety and food and different prices! Always good vibes in here too... parking available. read more

There are definitely deals to be found here, especially in the meats department, but there's a lot of stuff here that isn't really that much "less" than what you'd find at Vons either (I'm looking at you, spices). Nonetheless, I picked up some chicken thighs here at 99 cents a pound (hopefully they have some life left and won't be bad by tomorrow, haha). Some veggies were a good deal too with mushrooms at around $2, you can find 5 dozen medium eggs for $9.99 or 20 eggs for $3.99 (large ones). The thing that really earned this grocery store an extra star was finding Frank's hot sauce in the condiments aisle. Love that Buffalo-comfort sauce that I practically put on everything. Self-bagging at checkout. Lines at registers can be long, so plan ahead! All in all, definitely some steals here, but not everything is a bargain. read more

They never have enough cash registers open. There is always terribly long lines for no reason.

I love coming here with my boyfriend because they're always open late at night. I was just looking to grab some veggies and the lady at the checkout Rosie takes my vegetables out from the bag after handling money right in front of me and grabs my vegetables with her bare hands and just places them back on top not even inside the bag. I think she was in a hurry with me because she knew the guy behind me as she greeted and started conversating with him as well. I was going to wash my vegetables anyways but placing them on top of the bag was kind of rude. read more

yt manager is very disrespectful... his employees should probably get a raise for having to put up with him. anyways. plenty of parking. prices are low. long lines. guess you can't have it all. read more

I had a very good experience at this location today. I had issues navigating my account on my Food 4 Less App from my phone. I could not scan the barcodes on the items I was purchasing. I asked one employee on the floor, and he attempted but also couldn't get the items to scan from my mobile device. After shopping, I got in the checkout line. The store was somewhat busy with customers preparing for Thanksgiving. I didn't want to ask the cashier and hold up her line, but I did she took a few moments out to assist me. She asked to see my phone and advised me that there was a new updated app. and that's why the barcode wasn't scanning. She was also able to go to my account and add the coupons that I couldn't scan. Her name is Yolanda, and she did it swiftly and professionally. Thank you Yolanda! And thank you, Food 4 Less. You need more Yolandas; friendly, patient, and got the job done! Customer service at its best! Kudos to you Yolanda, you are appreciated for your outstanding work! read more

This place has gone down hill so bad!! These last view times I've noticed rotten fruit and veggies, and so many out of stock items. But this last time all the meat was questionable! Chicken had clogs of brown stuff in the bag, salmon had gray fungus and all the ham, wennies were green! When I told a cashier she said "ok thanks" didn't even care. read more

Came in to buy 3 watermelons that's on sale. Went through the check out without having to wait long for an evening crowd. I bought 3 watermelons but now looking at my receipt I was double charged for the last one. $1.95 might not be a lot but in this high inflation times every dollar counts which was my reason to shop here. For me to drive back just to get $1.95 back is equivalent to the gas spent driving there and back. My cashier's name on the receipt shows Lilly G. To be fair I noticed once the lady was done ringing me up, the cashier came back from her break, which leads me to believe the person who made this mistake was some sort of Lead/Supervisor covering a break. Hopefully the person who made this mistake with me was correctly logged in. And the correct person is held responsible for this. I'll have to reconsider shopping here again as this place has always been my go to grocery in LB for over 20 years. We all want to save money but I don't see the point if I'm getting double charged. This could have been a much more expensive item, and because the price is so small, I have to eat it!!! read more

Food4Less - Receipt being double charged - Grocery Near Me - Signal Hill, California

I rarely shop here as it's out of my way but I was passing through on a different route home from work and needed a few things. Plenty of parking as the lots nice and big but customers park like sh*t so you have to park a good distance away to avoid getting door dings on your car. Store's nice and clean and a large variety of items, but also very rude customers (no courtesy, see you coming with your cart and do not move out of the way). Cashier was not very friendly as well, but she was not rude. read more

I honestly don't like that none handicap people use the handicap crates like if you are not physically handicap please don't use the handicap crates leave for some one who is actually handicap read more

My yogurt was already open. And molded. Have to check your food really carefully. Not worth the line

The quality of the onions is no longer satisfactory. On touching the onion, I felt its coarse surface.The onion supply should be replenished with fresh stock, as fruit flies have infested the current inventory. read more

I finally finished grocery shopping and not a minute too soon. The store is going to get packed real soon and I don't want to be here it's not fun these people can get testy real quick waiting in line. I love this particular food 4 less they almost always have everything I need at this store. When I need paper products and body wash etc the prices for these items are a bit lower. Thanks to food 4 less this thanksgiving I'm going to make so many delicious things. If you don't know food for less it's a great store perfect for anyone on a budget. Vegetables at great prices,fresh bread that is if you still eat bread lol. My yogurt which I buy by the case, Meat that won't break your budget, Ice cream a big variety from exotic to old school favorites, liquor if this is your thing they have a huge selection. Candy too many To choose,pet food my Grandcats special treats, household items etc etc the list is endless.. Thanksgiving blessings to everyone. read more

I came here looking to grab some water and I was a little bit on the shocked side of how clean and super huge this Food 4 Less looked. It was so very much more more modern than many of the other Food 4 Less. It didn't feel like I was in early 70's at all. Everything was so organized in neat super neat order and all the prices were marked very large and easy to read. If i lived closer I would love to have this as my market. I also liked how they put many of the larger products when you walk in so you can put it in the cart first! Who would of known to do it !! Well I guess Food 4 Less is on the way to becoming a genius super market!! One day I will be back shopping and going slow into the isles of perfection. Also the workers were very polite and fast. The only thing about it is that you have to bag your own groceries but that is supposedly to make your grocery prices at a lower price than other places. read more

Kudos to Q Cruz the cashier on duty last nite. My wife went through his line last nite and walked away leaving her I phone 13 on the counter. Upon arriving at home after Food For Less & 5 other stops, she discovered her phone missing. Not remembering exactly where she left it caused quite a stir at home. Finally this afternoon, she revisits Food For Less and low and behold her phone was retrieved at Customer Service. It's good to know that this employee Mr Cuz has excellent work ethics , and unquestionably integrity & honesty. read more

Most horrible cashier in my adult life....Erica Jacques needs to stick with her other job, hope it's not in customer service too. Been coming to this location for over 15 years, never ever going back! Never had a problem here ever, it's always full of people but we like the variety of groceries here. My family filled up our shopping cart, we usually do this once a month. We loaded up the belt when it was our turn to check out hubby came around to start banging groceries with my 2 older sons. Erica tells my husband he is stealing grocery bags when he asked her if he can take some to start bagging our groceries. We live an honest life and he was offended by this, over 10 cent bags? Goes back & forth with hubby then she started getting rude and I told her she handled that wrong, no customer service at all. Told Erica "finish ringing me up so I can leave, she was ruining the positive energy my family was having that morning. She kept talking back then said "this ain't my only job, BITCH" while my 4 year old was standing next to me. What was that comment for? I called her out and asked "did you call me a bitch" and she straight lied & said "no I said girl"....I know what I heard. Hubby told her "why you calling people names, catch her outside then" she looked at him and said "are you threatening me" then she walked away and called a manager over. Manager finished the transaction and we got out of there! Kroger please make sure your employees know how to deal with customers, because if I were an unstable person it would have been a different outcome. read more

There are a few staff members here that make coming here bearable, but the other staff; mainly the cashiers are becoming really bad. They offer no friendly small talk, so not greet you. And will literally continue their conversation over you to the other cashier at the register. It's just really rude. Only three stars for the few original cashiers and employees that know me as a regular and treat me like I actually exist. I honestly want to give less stars. Especially for the inconvenience of their mobile carts. I recently broke my ankle and rely on their mobile carts to get around. I get dropped off right at the front of the store while I struggle to get in to find a working mobile cart. Today I went in and 3 of the 4 carts were completely dead and weren't even plugged in. This has happened 3 times this week. My hubby ends up coming in after parking the car and plugging all of them in to help the next person who might need it. I can literally see the workers just stare from their registers as they watch us or my hubby do their job. Another inconvenience is that their mobile carts do not allow you to leave the store. It automatically stops once you pass their doors. My hubby will go and pull up the car as I sit there in the cart with our groceries as employees and cashiers will just stare and not ask to help or anything. It's just a shame to see my favorite grocery store become such a place that burdens my current lifestyle and accessibility. read more

Budget friendly grocery store, always find what I need in a pinch. Parking is crazy and bagging your own groceries is the norm. Starbucks is just up the way in the parking lot, so if you need a caffeine boost before entering, do so! read more

I normally like to go here for booze and groceries. The employees who work in produce and meat section are nice. There's one guy who always say hi to everyone and ask them how they're doing. The price is better than most place and their produce is fresh. You have to be careful with the ready to go food as sometimes people eat from it and leave it there. They're fully stocked on meat for the most part. Some cashiers could definitely be friendlier and some are very unprofessional. I just try to go in and out and mind my own business but I don't need to be criticized for wearing a mask and glove during this COVID-19 time. They have plenty of parking space. read more

The produce and meat department worker are awesome. BUT the cashier at the express lane of 15 items or less...name Hilago or something like that... this young male does not know how to greet, didn't offer if I would like to purchase bags and not a single word after handing over my receipt. Wow! If he were mute then I would understand BUT he offered the next customer after me if he would like to purchase some bags. Manager- I hope u do something about this. read more

Rare to give a place like this 5 stars... but I have been coming to this store since the place opened. I have watched employees leave and some that have been here for YEARS... I honestly have no issue with the workers here. EACH AND EVERY ONE of the staff here is friendly. The cashiers are fine, they're there to ring out your shit cause half of ya'll can't be trusted to ring out your shit out!!!!! (I think some of you are shitty at your TACT... Especially when approaching people. Often times, not realizing it.. YOU THE CUSTOMER come off entitled, wether you intentionally are doing it or not...) May be some of you should break the ice and just say "Hi.." I absolutely do not work here. But, I understand the logistics of working in a grocery store and "the people" industry. I truly feel for the employees here, and across the board. OVERALL, this grocery store has improved in the items they carry. There are more broad ranges of things to buy here; whereas a few years ago, this store would not have. Produce is great and affordable. Poultry is usually good. Overall can not complain its a store. I hate most of the people SHOPPING here, but the EMPLOYEES ARE FINE. You asshole customers should kick rocks. read more

I normally don't have an issue with coming here but today changed my overall outlook on this location. Talked to 4 different employees who all but 1 did not want to help me, had an ugly attitude, negative vibes & terrible customer service. Was so flustered leaving the store I may never return here again. So disappointed. read more

I bought a bottle of wine here and by the time I got home I realized the seal was broken. I called the store inquiring about their return policy and was told to bring the wine and my receipt. I return to the store and am told by customer service that due to Covid they're not accepting returns and I can't get a refund either. I wouldn't be that pissed if I had to take a loss on $5-$10 but that bottle was about $25. I won't be shopping here anymore. read more

I work nearby and love the prices. Best prices for real brands. What I don't love is that they do not have hand baskets. I often come in for just a few things and don't want to push a whole cart. Also there's never enough cashiers. Every single time I go to check out I'm at least 4th in line. They often only have 2 cashiers open on a weekday. It's always busier than that so what gives? read more

Around 2:30PM, an employee unlocked the gate inside to let my 70 year old, handicapped grandmother use the restroom, instead of having to walk all the way around the store to use it - this employee was very kind and let me grandma through. However, another employee was EXTREMELY rude and when my grandma was trying to exit out the same way she was let in (her groceries were right outside this gate), THE EMPLOYEE WAS ALREADY WALKING OUT TOO - but when my grandma asked if she could get by, the employee told her "Don't be rude" and pushed the door closed on her. Y'all are lucky I'm hearing about this story after the fact and wasn't actually there. SHAME ON YOU FOOD 4 LESS. If you are elderly/have elderly family members who shop here, LET THEM KNOW TO BE CAREFUL. Might as well just visit another grocery store if this is how they are treating their elderly. Smh. Y'all are APPALLING read more

One of the more cleaner Food4Less markets I've been too. Also Signal Hill still allows plastic bags in grocery stores, so if you forget your reuseable bags and need to go grocery shopping you don't need to worry about buying them here. Also love how the parking lot is huge, with a Starbucks right nearby. read more

Pretty good location but only come when in the area not too offten. The one good thing is this lady and her grand daughter sell home made tamales on the DL. I bought one one time to help out...sh!t I end up with 12 on that trip. Went again just to look for them hope they are here today. This store is clean and has great deals. I came yo buy furits and lunch stuff snacks for work. read more

Food4Less - Front of this store seens pretty big - Grocery Near Me - Signal Hill, California

The line was long and they only open two checkers. No self checkouts and plus I noticed this place carry alot of expire lunchables. Good things I noticed it when I buy.

I know this ain't McDonald's...but I'm still lovin' it. I mean if you're shopping at Food 4 Less for groceries, you alreadry know what you're getting into (that goes for all you people that gave it sub 3 star reviews), you know who this store's aimed towards...people tryna save money on groceries such as myself (x ha. If you're complaining about this store you don't belong here...go back to Albertson's or Trader Joe's or wherever it is snobs shop at. Ok enough about my rant on the people who gave this shitty scores. I really like this Food 4 Less, it's one of the nicer ones I've been to, the only one nicer than this one is the Food 4 Less in Temecula, now that one almost doesn't feel like a Food 4 Less. I also like it for the fact that I can go here during lunch break and get in/out in less than 10 minutes (if going in the express line). The employees here are pretty chill and not in a bad mood, they're pretty helpful too. One word of advice, go here during the morning if you wanna avoid long lines, otherwise it can get pretty hectic in there. read more

Food prices are fair to good. Much of there selection is private label and plain wrap. All decent quality. You get what you pay for. My bagger was so cute and professional. Oh wait, at food for less you bag your own stuff. There is a great selection. From the .39 caned vegetables - to the name brand .99 vegetables. Good bakery area. Fruit was excellent at good prices. I will come back. read more

Employees not wearing masks , they're not mandating that customers wear masks. And yes it is now mandatory for essential business AND the people visiting essential business to be wearing them. Told a manager and he didn't care. Many many shoppers not wearing masks and one guy stocking meat and one guy stocking veggies BOTH without wearing masks. Obviously store employees and managers do not care about public health. Ill spend my money elsewhere from now on. read more

As far as grocery stores goes I think this is a pretty cool one! I don't come here for fresh squeezed juice ( Mother's down the street), I don't come here for organic (also Mother's or Whole Foods), I also don't come here for hard to find specialty ingredients. I do come here because it's close to my home and they always have everything that I need with good prices. Whenever I've asked for help the employees are always helpful and provide good customer service. I knocked off a star because I would like to see some hand baskets at this location. They would be nice to use when I only have a few items instead of having to use a big shopping cart. I'm happily a repeat customer! read more

Hey, what's with all the negative ninnies complaining about Food for Less??!! Honestly, this is one of favorite grocery store chains. I always find good deals and specials here. The parking lot is full of spaces, being that it is in a shopping center that has a Starbucks and Charley's Grilled Sub's. Everytime I come here, I have always had no problems finding what it is I need. Surprisingly, I have never had to wait in a long line. They have just about everything here for your grocery needs. If I am not mistaken, they still have the redbox machine in the front, as well as a lottery ticket machine. Yes I give high praises for Food for Less. And I think I'll continue doing so!!!! read more

When Food 4 Less opened 5 plus years ago, I cheered because we finally had a grocery store here in Signal Hill, YAY! The location is great because it's just a mile up the street from me, so easy access too. Food 4 Less... or at least this Food 4 Less was the usual budget type grocery store when it opened, plain and kinda boring. Boxes of good cut open on one side and the whole thing put in the shelf. However since opening the store has matured a bit. 1 1/2 - 2 years ago they went through an interior cosmetic upgrade / remodel, giving the store a fresher, more inviting feel with some brighter wall colors. It feels a more like a "regular" grocery store than a "budget" store now. While you won't find the many "gourmet items" here, they do have a good variety of other items to choose from. Prices are better/lower than the big brother Ralphs too, but there is less customer service here as well. On the down side, the lines at checkout are pretty constant most of the time because they rarely have enough check stands open. On busy shopping days (holidays, etc) they do have more check stands open, but the lines are as bad if not worse. Overall: Convenience and prices = very good. Variety of products = pretty good. Lines at checkout = Yes. read more
