Earthbound Farm Stand is a total gem. We stopped by on a Sunday morning for some grocery shopping…read moreand were so impressed by how beautifully maintained the entire market is. Everything is fresh, organic, and well-organized. The experience is more than just shopping, though. Their cafe serves delicious sandwiches (perfect for a quick lunch), and there is a great seating area to relax. For those with kids, the garden space is a lifesaver--it's a safe, open area for them to run around and play while you enjoy your meal. Definitely a must-visit for families in the Monterey area!

A really cute farm stand with a garden in the back! We came to check out the market inside which…read moresells Earthbound produce, local specialty food products, flowers and doubles as a cafe. We grabbed a cold brew to go and then wandered around the garden in the back. It wasn't the season for berries but I loved walking through herb garden and trying to identify what herbs there were. The backyard space is great for dining outside on a sunny day and it's the ideal spot for a picnic. They also sell local beer and wine which you can get by the glass!

There aren't that many vitamin and supplement stores near by with a large selection. My only complaint is that a lot of the same brand supplements aren't in alphabetical order and that makes it a little difficult to scan for something specific.

The seafood I purchased here was rancid.

This department has zero accountability and even less respect for its customers. With a 1.5-star rating on TGTG, the lowest in the entire STATE! It's clear they aren't just having a bad day; they're consistently serving up health hazards. Your seafood counter is the only place where the "Warning: Choking Hazard" signs should actually be pointed at the air quality, not the fish bones.

There is a reason that this is one of the highest rated large supermarkets in our area. The…read moreselection and variety is mind blowing. They have exotic brands from around the world along with rare and older brands that the big box grocery stores don't carry. I don't know how they do it, but the quality and freshness of the vegetables and perishables are top notch given such variety. We used to shop at Whole Foods in Monterey, and we like the small specialty shops like Elroy's in Monterey and Jerome's Carmel Valley Market, but Star Market is a combination of both worlds. Whole Foods has gotten corporate with an overemphasis on their own brands. Star Market doesn't really have their brand so they are extremely loyal to local brands which makes the shopping experience feel like a tour of Monterey County highlights. I also like the very practical way they're running their business. Few frills, very clean, and high quality. In fact, it feels very nostalgic to walk in, like a movie set from the 1970's which makes me feel that this is still a family owned and run business. If you're looking for a truly unique experience that is different from the Albertsons/Lucky/Safeway/Nob Hill sameness, then you have to do yourself a favor and visit Star Market. It has a Salinas/Monterey old fashioned charm coupled with unrivaled variety and quality.
