Save Mart sure is a supermarket! It's conveniently located, but that doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things. Unfortunately, the app for this store almost never works, which makes it super difficult for you to actually benefit from any of the potential discounts. The prices are also unreasonably high even when the app does work. Good place to stop in at if you need just one thing, but that's about it. read more

The prices are very expensive without the charm and selection of Nugget. I have the feeling the chain is taking advantage of students who live in the nearby apartments. read more

AMAZON WORKER OLDER LADY the taller african american woman working at the amazon drop off is SO off-putting and just rude! i had a gift return that was sent to me and was just told to drop off my uggs at this location. i was confused about this because i didn't know the uggs were purchased through amazon, so the lady just started yelling at me telling me "We only do amazon" while walking away from me, just yelling with no offer for help. someone else stepped in, younger man with glasses probably college age, he could tell i was not getting the service i needed so he just immediately stepped in and did the return for me! he was a sweetheart i feel bad he has to work alongside her. read more

Great service. Bill the manager is always helpful and friendly. They have good deals too.

You can save at this mart. Ok here goes sinxe eye need to write more in ebglish Do it now or else I'm going crazy and you won't get it done again read more

The prices are the highest in town and their customer service is terrible sometimes. I like Maria, she is very nice, but she talks too much to the customers when she has a long line. Recently, I had tried to checkout and a young white male cashier refused to help me because he was closing down his register. He should have rung me up, but he wouldn't! I left my cart there and went to the Nugget Market where I am always treated with kindness. read more

Tuesday 1/18 at 1:30. Amazon return workers had zero customer service and rude attitudes. Another worker had to step in, younger man very kind, helped us eventually. Need some better training honesty. read more

Brisket Baked Beans in the food service deli, are fabulous. A go to - if you want a flavorful - brisket chewy snack, or a Wonderful Smokey, just the right thickness side dish - these Brisket Baked Beans Deliver!! I eat them cold, room temp., warmed up, they are The good comfort food! Sometimes I have to wait for deli service personal available, but I always ask for someone in the end. They don't have a line of customers at the service deli, I don't know why? I love their Sicilian Bean Salad, Asiago Pasta Salad, 3 (or 4) Bean Salad, Mashed Potatoes, Santa Maria cold, med./thick sliced steak (or Tri-tip). But the Brisket Baked Beans Rock... hot or cold, you've got to get them! read more

Well-stocked store and clean store. I stopped in yesterday for some produce and to drop off an Amazon return (new feature at their store). The African American woman at the check out is very brusque and seems put out by anything extra she might have to do for a customer. We needed assistance at the self-checkout, which often happens as they are very sensitive. She was not kind about it at all. Seemed like we had inconvenienced her. I have seen this with her on other occasions as well. There is one very kind hispanic woman there - I try to get in her line if she's there. read more

My favorite place to shop groceries in Davis. Friendly, organized and well stocked this place is great for nearly all my grocery needs. I started shopping here because it's convenient but everything is also well priced and their sales and coupons make things very affordable. Fresh produce , the chicken fingers are great even their baking is on par. Give it a try ! read more

Great store, always helpful staff and friendly service. Fresh produce and great selection. Plus it's owned locally which I appreciate.

Went in this morning to get fried chicken for lunch. The older lady behind the counter was very rude. I asked for some fried chicken and she said tenders I said no she said wings I said no I asked for fried chicken she answered in a very angry tone how many!? At this point she lost my sale. I use to work in a grocery store deli and customers can be rude but this time I was not. If she does not to be there then she should look for employment elsewhere. read more

price like safeway ， less mark price high ， not promotion！ high price than foodforless in water but most is american style food only ！ less rice and asian food choice options ！ read more

The antiquated open refrigeration shelves have been replaced by sleek new cases with doors in a recent remodeling completed the past couple months. Not only do they look more attractive, they are more energy efficient too I bet. The dark laminate flooring is also new. Sushi is added to the deli section. Transparent partitions are placed between self checkout registers. This is not my go to everyday grocery store but it is still very nice to see improvements in a local business. read more

See all

Coffee is meh..... I ordered a philtered soul this morning. Waiting in my coffee and the (baristas) did more chatting than working . That is not the big issue at all 1 of the 3 baristas working had on gloves.....the other 2 did not . On of them touched her face 6 times! (Nose, hair. Mouth, eyes .....yuck!! I just told them cancel my order I donr want it since they were not a all following hygiene protocols. I will find somewhere else. I didn't even geta a refund........ I am done !! read more

Cashier with a badge saying best service member doesn't deserve it. She's the African American cashier, very rude coz I'm Asking for discount? I'm a full time student trying to budget! Shame on you! Gave me attitude coz my phone number didn't go through and you have to redo the scanning, you're not good for your job woman! I'm not the only one complaining about you read more

I've never been to any other Save Marts, so I don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems like a normal small grocery store. I assumed they'd have great prices, based on their name, but that isn't the case. I found that their prices were a bit high on some items and I was probably spending $0.25-0.70 more on each item than at my local Safeway. I know they have an app, and I did download it when my cashier told me to, but it didn't work well and I gave up. They did not need me to sign up for a membership to get their discounts (+1 point). Their meat and bakery departments are lacking. The bakery department, and cake area, looks sad to be honest. Everything looks old or dry. I bought a loaf of sour dough bread (a round loaf) and was fairly disappointed. It tasted stale even though the expiration date was further away - obviously not made in the bakery! The meat department was decent, visually, but didn't have anything I wanted. I was looking for pork ribs (to bbq) and thin beef, didn't have either. I found that their produce area was meh, but not terrible. A bit overpriced but most items looked good, with a few overripe items here and there - broccoli, kiwis, grapes, and a few leafy items looked older for example. Some overpriced items included peppers for $2.3 EACH?! What?? They had some beautiful looking bok choy, but I didn't want to pay $3/lb for it. I think you can find pretty much everything you'd need from their milk/dairy and deli areas. They have a decent freezer and shelf area too. Don't expect many choices for: alcohol (wine), home items, pharmacy / medicine, meats, or breads. I've only dealt with the cashiers, one bagger, and one butcher / meat person and everyone was pleasant. Nothing out of the world service but no one was rude and did the basic niceties - how are you's, paper/plastic?, etc. Bonus star for being in the same lot as a gas station, 3-4 eating spots, cafe, ACE hardware read more

I had a really bad experience with an African-American cashier serving with a bad attitude. I only needed/asked one help/question in the self service cashier. If she doesn't like providing customer service then why is she working in a supermarket? Save Mart should provide/teach employees on How to serve a customer. read more

I went in day after sale began for celery (2 bunches for $5). All gone. Ok, so things happen. But it was real hard to get an employee to tell me that they didn't have celery refrigerated in the back. She was the cashier--and not busy at all...but ok, people wake up on the wrong side of the bed. YET the overarching problem is the bleakness that hangs in the air. I shop at another discount store: Grocery Outlet--- & it would seem it and Save Mart would have the same atmosphere. No. Not the case at all. Save Mart employees seem UNhappy, even beat down. Thus to help a customer takes too much time, too much energy. Dear Save Mart manager and those above you-- if you don't treat your employees better & also train them in how to relate to customers you're going to lose more customers than just me. read more

Hard working America here. Excellent produce. That's what we come for. Employees are hard to motivate or even have them show up? Locals here working hard so be patient and kind... read more

Save Mart - Crunchy Specialty Combo Sushi ~11$ - Grocery Near Me - davis, California

I go here for the convenience, but this place is always out of stock on sale items. Also, i have never seen employee in this place be friendly in any way, especially the front end. read more

Sometimes cheaper things than other places in Davis but they have a mice problem. Saw two while standing in line for register. Proceed with caution read more

Sorry Save Mart but you are just not being safe, mart. (See what I did there). I came in for a shop today a little after 5 p.m. Place is busy and there is an older guy in the store walking around near the bagging area without a mask on. Like WHAT? Right near many cashiers, who could have said something, but didn't. The guy was non threatening and had no mask in sight. I left without buying anything and will take my business elsewhere. Good day, sir. read more

Alcohol are non refundable due to California laws? Cool I get that, but please Ms.Manager customer service please, at least offer me a exchange for the same item since I got a 30 pack case that expires in 10 days. But nope, she huffs and puffs and waggle her ass away like she's busy. read more

To be honest, I only came here because they sent some awesome coupons to my house (free rotisserie chicken, free 24-pack of water, free carton of eggs, $10 off $50). Obviously, I couldn't resist that sort of marketing. It didn't seem particularly different/unique from most other large grocery stores. Pretty basic stuff. I saw a couple items that were cheaper than anywhere else (a chunk of raw, seasoned salmon for $2.00+ as well as packaged cold cuts at $1.99). When checking out, I received another coupon for $10 off so kudos for their discounts. Oh, their employees go above and beyond! Super friendly cashiers. Came back here the following week and forgot to take a coupon so the bagger chased me out into the parking lot. Much appreciated. Ample parking. read more

I think those digital coupons are a pain in the neck to use. Many elderly people ( that are on fixed income and could really use the savings) do not know how to use the app! read more

I love this location!! I've gotten to know most of the people who work there cause we live close by plus hubs has been going here for the last 8+ years.. They're super friendly (minus 1 or 2 ppl), helpful and knowledgeable on their product.. It's always clean and has a great selection of items.. We go there almost every day to buy something for dinner to cook.. We buy as we cook each meal.. They always have killer deals going there, like the buy one get one free deals with certain items or the buy 5 for $25 for meats.. When I'm looking for something I can't find, they go and help me.. They have 5 self checkouts if you don't want to wait in line.. Prices here I find cheaper then safeway, so I really get my money's worth here.. There's days they will do sampling in the bakery/ deli area to show off some of the things they offer there.. They also offer carry out service to woman and to seniors to help them out.. read more

Save Mart - Hamburger cake!! That's so awesome - Grocery Near Me - davis, California

It could have been five stars but four it is. People at the store are friendly but-- when approached by me asking where this specific item was. They ignored me at first and I had to tap their shoulder and ask again on my phone "where is ****, I can't seem to find it" they proceed to talk to me and I am deaf I can't hear them talking so I pointed to my phone and they just pointed to next aisle and left. So much for being deaf and this is challenging. However the place is clean and has a lot of sale going on. Will come back again and do the navigating myself. read more

So I've been coming to this Savemart for several years, and have always appreciated the selection and how sweet the staff are, but today just went to a whole new level! The deli guy who was working the fryers today, Darien, was not only so kind to talk to, but he's also a fried chicken master. This is the juiciest, most well-seasoned fried chicken I've had in years and years, and I'm totally in shock because this is really elevated. The coating is perfectly crisp and you can taste the multiple spices, and the meat is cooked through but the complete opposite of dry. Darien has the gift of chicken, and that really isn't easy considering I know it's like 100+ degrees working the fryer for hours, but wow, super kudos to this guy for bringing me out of a huge slump today. This is probably the most embarrassing yelp review I'll ever post but honestly I'm 100% sincere and I hope corporate acknowledges what a good job he and the rest of the store is doing read more

Save Mart - Fried chicken of the gods - Grocery Near Me - davis, California

I've only gone into this Save Mart a handful of times and when I have, they are always out of stock of sale items and/or promotional offers. Also, there is a lack of friendly customer service, especially one of the older male cashiers as I've noticed on my last couple visits that he always appears annoyed if any assistance is asked of him. He leaves a negative impression and will likely not return due to poor customer service and probably lack of proper management. I'll stick with shopping at Trader Joe's or Safeway. read more

Lots of over priced junk food. The majority of the store is junk food and processed foods. The good part is that the store is pretty well organized, consistent, and has self check out. I shop here because I don't know of a better place. **after posting this they stopped selling cashew milk :( read more

Best donuts in town and absolutely the best owners/bakers as well. "Donut Friday" became a tradition in our house during COVID. My husband loved his favorite ham and cheese croissants. Good people to support and delicious treats to eat! read more

It's a good place if you need to lower a grocery bill. This place is always clean and employees are fairly nice. There's normally not enough cashiers there, lines do get pretty long (I usually just to self check-out unless I have too many veggies to weigh). My favorite is when they have the 5 for $5 each sale on meats, usually saves me at least $15 on meats for a while (just put some in the freezer). One thing interesting is that they have older vegetables on discounted prices, not the best looking but good for same day use. I typically find prices here cheaper than Safeway but occasionally it's vice versa. Final Thoughts: Good sales, normal everything, typical grocery store. read more

This place is not a nice place. You walk in to dirty white floors greeting you at both entrances. The layout is very confusing, and the signs don't even match at the ends of the aisles. The produce section is kinda dirty, just sweep it ffs. Oh and the workers always seem checked out of life. The manager guy looks like that overbearing but not motivating boss that just depresses you when he approaches. I give a free star because it serves groceries as advertised. read more

I am always a fan of Save Marts. The cashiers seem to already know me, which may or may not be a good thing. You can get all your basic essentials for good prices. I love their chocolate chip cookies and fresh deli meats. Always use the self-checkout whenever you can, usually the very fast way to get out. Protip: Avoid coming in between 5pm-7pm if you can or you'll be waiting a while in line. read more

every time I go (which is often) every employee is so friendly and helpful. good sales too

For a relatively small store it sure has a great selection of items. It is out of the way for me but I find myself going there when I can not find specific items at my regular supermarket. There they are right on Save Mart's shelves and good prices to boot. There are usually not enough live check-out people so I end up using the self-checkout which invariably requires someone to come over to clear the system for some problem or other (not my doing) So, it ends up requiring just as much staff time as having a person on a regular check stand. read more

This is a review of the bakery department. I needed a cake for my nephews birthday and it was super last minute. I came in mid-afternoon on a Thursday, and walked out with a 2 tier multi-colored cake with buttercream frosting on a Saturday morning. Ask for Kat! She's the head of the bakery department. Thank you so much Kat! It was moist and perfect ratio of cake to buttercream. Everyone loved the cake! read more
