I like Safeway. This review is just about utilizing the In-store Shopper. Not always a good idea, when you're hoping your shopper will use some good sense when selecting an item. Ordered these Raincoast Crisp crackers and not only are they just a couple days from expiration but they are just one big pile of pieces and crumbs! Not ONE whole cracker in the bunch!! They taste "old" and will just need to go in the garbage. What a waste of $7 !!

I asked for a pink birthday cake for, I ordered it 5 days in advance. SO DISAPPOINTED. This my daughter's PINK birthday cake?!! : (

Worst customer service. I work late and usually shop here after 8:30pm. The employees here are rude and of no help.

Gotta start off by giving the GOAT of schmears a shoutout.. the Mango Schmear 5/5... Burgers here…read moreare always kind of trash.. idk 2 maybe 3/5 stars. Went with the wagyu smash burger this time.. was greasy as ever and the bottom part of my bun was soaked and soggy/falling apart by the time I was eating it.. honestly kind of trash.. still tasted okay but not much flavor.. sweet potato fries were okay. a big enough portion to share with someone else. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 2 or 3 is directly because of one item and one item only... the mango schmear... some of the best damn schmear I've ever had. I always come for the schmear and leave with a burger that disappoints me.. the smear always wins me over though.. Lots of other good salsas/spreads/aiolis but the mango schmear.. the mango schmear.. try it and tell me I'm wrong

I came here as part of the Slice of Sac Yelp Experience, but have had this bookmarked on my places…read moreto try for awhile now. Let me say that this is one of the most dangerous markets I've been to because of the vast selection of specialty and local goods! Let's start with the market side because I am so excited to talk about it! This place is jam packed with so many goodies that I had to talk myself out of so many things I wanted. When you first walk in you are literally bombarded with their numerous hot pies and it then it opens up with a smorgasbord of delicious looking baked goods from locally made breads, sweet loaves, cookies, and more pies! Exploring through the market you will undoubtedly find something you want/need in your life from hot sauces, pantry goods, or, in my case, pre-marinated meats! In one corner near the produce there's even a section where you can try all of their house made salsas, sauces, and schmeers! I ended up grabbing a ready-to-cook porchetta, peruvian marinated chicken thighs, and aji verde for my weekend dinners. I could not leave without trying out one of their savory pies and went with the Japanese curry pot pie. The crust was light and buttery and went so well with the chicken curry inside. I also got the poke plate and very happy with the quality of the fish, but the rice was a little mushy for my preference. Moving over to the restaurant you will see that they have numerous burgers, sandwiches, and shakes made-to-order. For the Yelp Experience, I tried their marion berry pie and a melona shake. The pie was sooo good! It had a lightly buttery crust with rich, yet tangy berry filling. The melona shake was definitely out of the ordinary which prompted my ordering it. It was just lightly sweet and very creamy with a good flavor of honeydew. Not cloyingly sweet at all. Ikeda's is definitely a roadside mom & pop shop, but it deserves a stop if you're on the 80 or close enough. I am excitedly planning to come back try more of their pies and try out their smashburger and crab sandwich next time I'm around. Also make sure you have a freezer bag or cooler because you WILL find something you want here!

I usually come here to pick up the peanut butter cookies they make fresh everyday from their bakery. However, I tried to go up the aisles to see if I could find something I couldn't find anywhere else. All their items are unique from the beer and ciders they carry down to the frozen foods. They source local organic and sustainable foods whenever they can. "Since 1976 they've been building a sustainable and equitable food system that supports healthy people, animals and the environment. When you spend your dollars at The Patch, you contribute to a thriving local economy and a kinder, more resilient world" ~From their web page They also have a fresh food and a hot food self serve section. I haven't tried it, but everything looks delicious! I did get to try a smoothie and those are super healthy and delicious as well. When I got up to check out, the employees were so wonderful and told me about their program you can partake in. I was definite interested, so she gave me a card with some info on it.... I can't wait to come back and pick up those peanut butter cookies!!!!

This particular store is conveniently located right off the main drag on your way to Grass Valley from Sacramento area. Pro's: -It is always clean. -Bathrooms are private and kept tidy -Staff is friendly and polite -If you're low tox or just conscious about what you put in your body, they have lots of options -Large organic produce department - Sometimes you can get great deals from sales Cons: - Prices seem to go up on my staple items too regularly. Nearly every visit on some items. - Yes, you will pay more for many items - smaller than the GV location, so less options on some items (also less busy and roomier aisles) Overall, we love BriarPatch, and hope one opens up closer to us someday. In the meantime, we will frequent this location when we drive through!

Spacious, clean, and great customer service. All produce was fresh and the bakery was well stocked with fresh baked bread. I wish I lived closer because I would be here every week.

The shop is set up in an interesting way where you enter through the produce section and snake around to the main shopping area. I thought this was cool at first but realized the way they have it set up to get back to produce you either have to go past the cash registers (which I think they don't want) or loop back around to get up front again. I typically like picking up produce last so it's on the top of my cart/basket so I ended up heading back that way at the end. The rest of the shopping visit was pretty typical and I loved the selection of items they had. I ended up picking up some cheeses, yogurt, noodles, and grapes during this visit. The prepared section did look nice, and if I hadn't already eaten lunch I would have grabbed something here. The staff member who helped me was friendly too.

I enjoy coming to Save Mart over their competitors for many reasons. Recently, I stopped here…read morebefore heading home in search of dinner. I grabbed a cart as I walked in because if anyone knows me, I'll end up grabbing a few nights of dinner and then walk around with it loaded up in my hands. As you walk in on the left side of the store, there is some of their produce that is usually in the ad right in front of you. Bakery is farther to the left. No I'm not going to give you the layout of the store, lol I was on a mission for dinner, so I headed to the back of the store where the meat department is. In my opinion, compared to the other grocery store competitors in the Auburn area, Save Mart has much better quality meat. After looking over the selections, I decided I was going to make peanut butter cheeseburgers when I got home. After deciding on the entree, I went for the rest of the ingredients.... and instead of smooth creamy peanut butter, I got crunchy. I also picked up the buns, Velveeta, a tomato, and Kinders mild BBQ sauce for that touch of tang. The man at the check out counter is always so friendly. He has given me great advice and I look forward to our conversations when I get to check out. Every one of my whole store experiences here is always so friendly. (Even after the meat dept closes, and the butcher is cleaning up, she still comes out to ask if I needed any help while I am trying to decide on dinner.) I used the Dukes mayo I had at home to toast my buns first. Then I shaped my hamburger meat into patties. The meat was fresh and soft. I only use salt & pepper. After cooking the meat and adding a thin slice of cheese, I started building my peanut butter cheeseburger. Thin layer of Dukes mayo, slice tomato, burger patty, and cheese. Under the top bun, I put on the chunky peanut butter with a good amount of drizzled Kinders mild BBQ. This one of a kind peanut butter cheeseburger was made possible with the tasty ingredients I bought from Save Mart. With meat cooked exactly the way I wanted it, BECAUSE of the freshness of Save Mart... it turned into the best peanut butter burger I have ever created
