The afternoon I went in I was getting pretty tired so I decided to get a bunch of to-go beers and ready made food to relax at the hotel. The store has a cozy character that comes with being loved. They had a lot of ready made food items, plus all the traditional stuff of other grocery stores. Prices were reasonable, especially with how healthy a lot of the selections are. It was a popular spot with many people doing their afternoon shopping. The beer selection was amazing for me, lots of Russian River and other regional staples. The staff was also friendly, both the beer stocker and cashiers. I highly recommend shopping here if you're in Petaluma.

During the pandemic, I wish people would've reviewed businesses on the curve! Looking over the past…read morereviews I wonder if most of the discontentment was caused from being poorly staffed during very challenging times. I don't like the hassle that Safeway corporate makes you play to get discounts. Prior to heading to Safeway, I spent about an hour checking out the ad, the "Just for U" section, coupons etc. I rarely have that kind of time. Why do grocery stores subject you to homework to get the best price? That being said I spent $200 for a $350 order. Shopping Friday sales help as well. Some of my past experiences at this store have not been stellar. It seems to get better with each visit. Mikey was my cashier. He was friendly and efficient. What else can you ask for? The Starbucks barista suggested I get the Friday special that included a pastry. The $6 special was cheaper than the drink alone would be. Finally , Austin helped me with my cart in the lot. We exchanged pleasantries, he was quite lovely. I drove away $200 poorer, but with a smile on my face.

To get your farmers market level of local products any day of the week, go to Sonoma Market. This…read moreis where you find everything you need for the perfect picnic or dinner featuring hyper-local everything! Don't feel like packing a picnic or prepping or cooking? Good thing Sonoma Market is known for their sandwiches and deli and fresh prepared meals. You'll find a really fun selection of local cheeses, condiments, produce, and baked goods that bigger grocery stores don't carry. You'll spend a little more, but the shopping experience is more curated and atmospheric, and the products speak for themselves. I stopped in recently while on a short trip to Sonoma, specifically for salsa, some kind of dip or spread for crackers, and a cheese or two. I spent awhile browsing because that's the best part, and left with exactly what I needed (proud and amazed I stuck to my budget haha). I bought a fantastic bleu cheese, brie, a cantina style salsa, and this whipped, layered, tomato-basil dip made of ground almonds, avocado, sour cream, tomatoes, and herbs. Kind of a lot going on, but it was so good. It's always fun to see what you'll find here. Like a locally made gluten free apple pie, the perfect bouquet of flowers, or a freshly baked loaf of sourdough.

The store could sell so much more food than it does, they have no idea. But people want quality food at the hot bar not what they have there now. Overall, the store is pretty good but they're hot food display is an absolute embarrassment for the store. It's always old picked over food or just empty. If you come in here at five 5 o'clock or after, it's always a disgusting display. Very sad to see.

This was the second time at this Trader Joe's, it's one of the bigger ones that I have seen…read moreallowing easy navigation thru the aisles. It also has the most cash registers ( I believe 9) that I have seen in a TJ. Team members on the floor were all helpful and pleasant. When I asked a team members where a specific item was located the team member would walk me over to where the product was to ensure I found it quickly. When we went to checkout was when things started going wrong. We got behind a customer who was just finishing up when Jaime T (per our receipt) came over and got us stating there was no wait in his line. I handed Jaime our reusable bags who then stated "Just put those at the back of the check stand". At that point I told Jaime I would be right back, I was going to grab a case of water. When I returned 2 minutes later Jaime was 3/4 done with the checkout however I noticed my spouse was starting to bag our own items, and not the way TJ team members normally bag purchases (neatly with maximizing the space in the bags). We were checking out at 11:20, the other open check stands had one or no customers in them and Jaime had no one behind us at his checkout. My spouse stated it wasn't a big deal but when you have one TJ team member not doing what you have come to expect it is disappointing. I hope this was just a one off event and not an ongoing behavior of this one TJ team member.

Their produce at two price points of conventional and organic, their meat section offering all local and fresh options, their bakery is delicious and so beautiful, their deli with to-go food and sandwiches, and the soups are amazing, their taco and sushi bar, along with their hot food and salad bar all cannot be beat. They also have a bulk section for nuts, spices, honey, water, candy, coffee, etc. and offer everything else a grocery store would. The prices are a bit higher than other grocery stores, but you're paying for quality. Everything is fresh, the store is always so clean, and people are for the most part always friendly. They hire people with special needs, which in my opinion, is my favorite part of visiting there. Their butchers are always so friendly and helpful. Their only downfall is SOME of their cashiers. They often are lost in their own conversations, and do not greet or engage their customers. They can come across as rude or unfriendly for this reason. But over all, Olivers is my go to spot for all local meats, delicious and beautiful cakes, and to-go food. Highly recommend.

I also commend the staff for being helpful and friendly and patient! It's a team and I think it's fantastic!! Can't wait to try more wonderful foods. By the way, deli items are fabulous and sandwich was over the top! Price no more expensive than anywhere else but MUCH better and huge selection!

I also asked the man at the meat counter if he could help me locate it and he thought I wanted a Parmesan cheese by a similar name. Regardless to say, I never found either cheese I thought all sprouts carry the same items. I was disappointed that I could not find my special cheeses here that I always find at the Oakland sprouts.

Years ago I really liked Raley's but in recent years they have really let the store go. The prices…read moreare higher than most places which I could forgive if they had nice talented cashiers. Unfortunately the people are mostly kids that would rather be anywhere else and you can hear it in their voices as they are ringing you up. I could even forgive this as I know how hard it is to find good people in the current job pool. What I cannot forgive is all the rotten and long expired food. I have been tracking this over my last 3 visits and have found the same moldy tortillas, the same rotting meat that is growing more mold daily. Every Raisin Rice Pudding that I checked was expired by at least 2 weeks with some of them being expired by 6 weeks. This goes back to the staff that is hired. Nobody cares anymore, so the jobs that used to be done are ignored. For now, I am switching to Trader Joe's and Lucky. Maybe I will try again in a few months and see if anything has changed. Come on Raley's! Do better!
