    Nob Hill Foods on Grant Rd. in Mountain View is a huge grocery store with a lot of parking in their associate parking lot. Besides the typical offerings like the produce department, and meat department, they also have a full deli, a Peet's cafe, a bakery, and a florist. The frozen food aisle is like 10+ cases in length! The interior feels like two grocery stores in footprint, you can get a workout just walking these aisles. Due it it's size it never feels crowded. Nob Hill Foods offer a military and first responder discount if you show ID, and a loyalty program. The service was very friendly. The $5 Mondays, their weekly specials, are a good deal if you leave near the store especially now with inflation issues. In January 2025, they had very few eggs available (due to the ongoing avian influenza / H5N1).

    Sherri discouraged me from registering as a new member as it would take 24hrs before valid. Did not want to give me the discount I saw.

    Nob Hill is not welcoming to new customers. I had just finished getting my blood drawn at El Camino Hospital and thought I would stop by the market to maybe pick up a coffee cake or pastry for breakfast. Nob Hill is right there on Grant so I thought why not? Saw an ad for steak at $7.97lb and thought, hey, that's a good deal, I'll pick up a pack. Kept looking around for coffee-cake or pastry and figured they don't really offer fresh bakery services when I saw a woman putting out bread from a delivery. No cashiers around at 7am so I went to the self checkout. I tried putting my number in but it wasn't recognized so I had to wait for an employee to help get me registered. "Sherri" comes walking up a few minutes later and I told her I need to get registered as a member to get the discount price. She informed me that even if I register now, it would take 24hrs to take effect. So then I asked if she could swipe her card for me and she said no. Well, ok, let me try my wife's number and yes, my wife's number went through but it wasn't picking up the discount. That's when "Sherri" told me that I need to "clip" the discount on their app in order to get the sale price. That's too much hassle to also install the app so I just put it back and walked out. "Sherri" showed very poor customer service, did not try to help me out and did not care to sign me up or register me as a new member. That's ok, I prefer Safeway anyways and this was a reminder to just skip Nob Hill, waste of my time to even bother looking.

    Back when I lived in the neighborhood, this was my go-to grocery store -- I shopped here every week for years. Better quality than Safeway without prices as high as Whole Foods. 10 years later, to my surprise, not much has changed. The store is huge and seemingly never crowded. Some of the workers have been there for years -- maybe even decades. Although, like everyone else, there are times when they feel understaffed. The produce is plentiful and seems fresh; a reasonable amount of organic options. The meat counter used to be a huge strength. It's still solid but not as amazing as it used to be. Pre Covid I used the in house sandwich counter and Peet's coffee regularly. They never seem to be open any more. Probably just reduced hours. They've also closed off one of the entrances -- that might have made sense during the pandemic but seems odd now. This is still the best grocery store nearby but not worth the drive for me anymore

    This is a beautiful store inside

    Wow! A really nice supermarket. Ours the super back in the word. Nice, fresh and clean. They actually had the sale items in went in for. Wonderful! Lots of parking and also close to Hwy 85 and El Camino Real, so it's reachable. There's a fairly full service UPS Store inside, which is convenient for sending or returning stuff (Amazon!). Love it.

    Service and quality of people working at this place is outstanding. Extremely warm staff who goes out of their way to serve their customers. I live in the neighborhood and this is our go to store. Recently, Donna helped me prepare an outstanding bouquet and went out of her to decorate it when I mentioned what the occasion was. She helped me pick the right balloons and card and helped me then checkout. Rare to see such experiences at a large retail store.

    $7.49/lb Norwegian Salmon on sale Thursday, gone by Tuesday

    Nob Hill is known for superior produce quality, but you get what you pay for. It also comes with higher prices than Smart & Final, or Sprouts, let alone Safeway for such produce. Beautifully decorated supermarket in the same shopping center as Ranch 99, now permanently closed Sweet Tomatoes and In and Out Burger. No recycling of plastic bags here, unlike Lucky or Sprouts. Usual masks and social distancing measures. Came here on their $5 Monday. Wife picked up 4 lbs asparagus for $5, 8 count strudel fingers, $1.77 lb red grapes, 16 oz Sukhis Vindaloo chicken, 16 oz Sukhis coconut mango curry chicken, all for $5. She also got $8.14 worth of round corned beef at $2.97/lb. We only come here for sale items, as they are more expensive than other stores. The Sukhis items are normally $9. Costco sells 36 oz Sukhis Chicken Tikka Marsala for $14, but sold the much less popular 36 oz Sukhis coconut mango curry chicken for $10.49 in October. Unlike Smart & Final across the street, Nob Hill has self checkouts. If you have a return, go directly to the employee overseeing the self checkouts. A lot easier than Smart & Final, where if you have a return, you have to stand in the regular line, wait for them to call the manager, and you hold up the entire line behind you. When they have specials, you have to buy before the weekend. After the weekend everything's gone, as they often don't restock sale items until Wednesday, when new prices come. $2.50 20 oz Soy Vat Island Teriyaki sauce here Thursday, gone Tuesday. All the other varieties of Soy Vat plentiful. Would you pay $5 for a gallon of apple juice? One time they had $5/gallon Martinelli Apple Juice. I went to the Nob Hill on Monroe St to get the Juice. They never stocked it, and told me to try here. Came here to the Grant store, and they were sold out on the first day of the sale . Gave me a rain check, but had to come back 3 more times in the next 30 days , before I got my 4 gallon limit. In the past I have gotten the $7.97/lb Norwegian salmon. The salmon fillets were in 1.25 lb to 1.5 lbs weights, a nice contrast to the 2.5 lbs to 3.5 lb weights of local farm raised salmon fillets. You and the wife ever try eating 3.5 lbs of salmon? Just got the supermarket mailer for Wednesday's ads. Safeway has round corned beef for $1.88/lb. Too late to return that $2.97/lb corned beef to Nob Hill, as wife shredded the receipt! Read a lot of the Yelp reviews, and they mention the superior flower department. Last time I got flowers was for the first date with my wife -my current wife, back in 2003!

    Fresh lei made to order with carnations $34.99, it was beautiful!

    Too bad there isn't a Trader Joe's in my new neighborhood. I used to shop in this Trader Joe's for…read moreabout 20 years. I still come back partly because I know exactly how to drive in this neighborhood. Walking into the store, I was greeted by some of my favorite products which I can no longer find on a daily basis. So when I have business in Mountain View, I make a pilgrimage to the Trader Joe's and stock up. They have a lot of healthier options for me, which are actually pretty tough to find in other supermarkets. Parking was competitive, but I knew it would be. I went to my favorite spots in the parking lot which are usually empty and didn't have a problem.

    I've never even written a yelp review. Well, maybe one, years ago, but my experience at the…read moreMountain view trader joes hasn't been the best! Ive been going to different trader joes for 24 years, specifically because of their wine and Finlaggen Islay Scotch. 1st issue happened a few months ago: I had rushed into trader Joe's to grab a couple of bottles and when I went to pay, my card didn't go through. They attempted to run it "2 times" and it still didn't work. So, when I left, I called my bank because I knew I had at least a thousand on that card; the funds were still in there and the banker didn't show any attempts on my card from Trader Joe's! I was almost late for work and let it go in the moment. Then today, the second thing happened. Back story: My licensed expired on my 45th bday in January. I immediately renewed it but didnt get a physical one yet. As of March 28th my temporary license expired, sonI went back to DMV today and got another temporary licensed. Today I decided to go to Trader joes to grab a bottle and without looking at my paperwork, the lady says that their policy won't allow for them to accept my temporary licence! Since when? Because I've never a had a problem before, just at this specific trader joes. As much as I've sung Trader Joe's praises over the years especially to young people trying to get into the wine game but don't have the budget to buy expensive bottles of wine for education purposes, it's annoying that I even have to write this. I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK HERE.

Love the ample parking, prime location, and how spacious it is inside. The rewards system is essentially a 1% cash back at a 1000pt cliff -- meaning you get $10 after you spend $1000 but no redemptions before that. Being a member also doesn't get you any additional discounts vs non-members. But hey it's free so it doesn't hurt. I'll always support there being more Asian grocery stores in the West Side of the South Bay. H-Mart always had that spot for me, but now it's shared. Mega Mart's marketed as a more premium store, but it does its best when they're running sales. Price between the two are pretty neck and neck. You'll spend anywhere from $70-$200 per trip cuz the small things do add up. They used to have prepped food marked off anywhere from 30-70% off in the final and early hours of the day. Now, it's an inconsistent luck of the draw. However, I've never had an issue with food quality with anything I've purchased whether it be prepped food or raw ingredients. 4/5, solid store. Hope they continue to grow and thrive as a mainstay of the community.
