It seems like the offerings are more of the mainstream varieties, and fewer of the artisan or small-batch ones. This is evident in their soda and chip selection, particularly. The new owners are nice enough, for sure. No issue there. I just appreciate that the previous owners tried to carry different things that set them apart from what one would find at Safeway or another larger grocery.

I was shocked today when I shopped at Colusa Market and saw the prices. Yes, it's a nice store. But…read morethe prices are exorbitant and exploitative. Rotisserie Chicken $13.99.

Safeway: $4.99 Perhaps they serve some folks nearby, but you'd have to be crazy to pay these prices when there is competition near here.

Located inside Young's Market. There was no wait when I went…read more I ordered 3 sandwiches: Reuben Pastrami, Smoked Turkey, and Smoked Salmon. My total was $52. I only ate the Smoked Salmon, so I can only review that one. I enjoyed it! There was a lot of smoked salmon (dare I say too much?) and it tasted of... smoked salmon. The sandwich was filling because of how much salmon there was. The bread was kind of thin and falling apart so it was a little messy to eat. The sandwich would have been better with hardier slices of bread and more evenly spread salmon. I heard good reviews about the other sandwiches. I purchased drinks from Young's while my sandwiches were being made. Parking was surprisingly easy (Sunday at 11am).

The ambience is somewhat low key but in a good way, not like no one is here or "I shouldn't be here". Everything, IMO, is good quality here. From the wines to the behind-counter foods to the ice cream to the other items they sell. Help is readily available without being smothering etc. Pop on into El Cerrito Natural. Get something natural... or not. Either way this is a really nice store.

Last three times I've been in this place, have been very unpleasant. With the amount of money you…read morehave to pay for their groceries, you would expect at least the cashiers would be happy for you paying for whatever benefits they get, and the guys in the meat department glare at you without acknowledging you, like you just waked in wearing a necklace made out of sausage.

I mean seriously, Trader Joe's is right down the road and their cashiers are golden and their food is cheaper. I've given Natural Grocery three strikes so I'm out.

This is my second most favorite farmers market. My most favorite farmers market is the Larkspur…read moreFarmers market which has more organic vegetables and fruit. The reason I come to this one more often is because it's closer to me in the East Bay. They don't have a lot of organic produce and the prices for all the produce is a bit high for what it is. There's a lot of different pastry booths and there's a Semi Freddy's Cafe close by. The Frog Hollow farm has great fruit and pretty good simple pastries. They also offer their fruit preserves on a discount that is much cheaper than in stores or online. Their apricot preserves is one of their best ones and has the least amount of sugar. I come here quite often to get lunch on the weekends. There's also a really nice rotisserie chicken truck that makes amazing rotisserie chicken for about $17 and they also have rotisserie duck and rotisserie pork. They have a lot of roasted vegetables that can come with their rotisserie meat but unfortunately, all their potatoes and vegetables are covered with animal grease so it is not for people watching their cholesterol. It's easy to pick up a whole rotisserie chicken for a lovely Sunday meal and have leftovers for work for a few days. It's better than any rotisserie chicken from the supermarket but will cost about twice as much. However, you get to see them roast your chicken so you know it's very fresh and the skin is crisp.

That's beside the point; I ended up purchasing the Rockstar Energy drinks because they were buy one get one free. However, I was unaware of the Buy one, Get one promotion because it was not advertised in the aisle. So, I'm at the self-checkout. I tell the heavyset lady who was managing the area that I'm going to get two more because I didn't see the deal advertised in the aisle. She continues to tell me that it is advertised. I enjoy proving someone wrong when I know I am correct. I started taking pictures of what was in the aisle and returned to show her. However, I didn't want to make it a big deal. I just wanted to address the opportunity that is constantly occurring at this location. The employees are unclear about what is going on in their store. I'll come back tomorrow to photograph the non-advertised deal in the aisle.

San Francisco public works removed a memorial for KitKat - the cat run over by a Waymo... So I came…read morein for some cat toys to build a wreath to tie to his tree. KitKat was a loved cat in San Francisco. All people who visited the area knew him. I go to the area often ever since a kid as a church my mom liked was just a few doors down from here. I had already dropped off a basket but apparently it was a 'danger' - his whole memorial and all the flowers. Perhaps it blocked the sidewalk or something. My idea was to make something that could get tied to the tree and not be a nuisance to anybody. Trader Joes has my cats favorite cat treats and I love getting him toys. I thought little KitKat would love the toys from here too. TJs didn't disappoint and I found garland for a wreath and some mice with feathers - cats love that sort of thing. I busted out some floral wire - something I've never done before in my life - but for little KitKat - I suppose I can go above and beyond - especially after his treatment from SF public works. TJs is a pleasant shopping experience as always and I enjoy my visits very much. My favorite TJs in near Granite bay/ Roseville where customers and workers have a wall of their pet photos by the pet section.
