Stopped by to get some smart water, aquafina and a few items in the produce and bakery sections. This is an older store and brought back memories of when I worked for Alpha Beta and Boys Markets back in the 70s. The staff were helpful, kind and professional. read more

I got on to the Vons app and order groceries because I am disabled. I spent $100 to have all of my groceries delivered and then they delivered it to the neighbor's house around the corner didn't even check the address. My milk sat outside of the neighbor's house for at least 30 minutes along with my yogurt and butter. I called Vons and they told me I needed to call doordash. I called doordash and they said I needed to call Vons. My neighbor didn't want to answer the door. It took me another 30 minutes to get my groceries from them and then I had to carry them home. Nobody has offered to replace them they don't care! This is not okay!! shame on Vons and doordash!!!!! Never again will I order from this service!!! Not OK read more

Talk about a blast from the past! This location has obviously been skipped over for any renovations for decades & is very dated. Come to relive the nostalgia of childhood grocery shopping trips. We stopped by for a few things on a visit to the area thinking it would be the typical Vons/Safeway set up. It's a small parking lot & small store, but we found basic items. It seemed clean & organized. The big letdown was finding there's no in-store bakery or hot foods/deli. Checkout was easy with a friendly clerk. read more

The store is always clean the best part of the store is Calvin all the time very pleasant very up beat with the customer great attitude with the customer very helpful He is a great example for the front end crew read more

Holy hot tub time machine! This Vons is a real relic of the past. If you're looking for a classic grocery store, with a heavy dose of nostalgia this is your place. We ran into Vons to grab a case of seltzers for a birthday party. Stepping into the store I was instantly transported to my childhood grocery shopping with my mom. From the laminate tile floors, to the aisle markers - this is truly a classic. Their alcohol section was quite limited. But that's to be expected in this rather small Vons. Customer Service was impeccable. I was greeted, asked for assistance, and treated well during my checkout. Perfect management, honestly. I was in and out in less than 5 minutes - faster than a convenience store! Definitely stop by for the vibes (not the deals). And if someone does a nostalgic photo shoot at this grocery store, please tag me! read more

I hate going to this Vons. It's my local neighborhood grocery story and I only go here when I need 1 or 2 things. Aside of it being over priced, The cashiers, not all of them, but some of them have a terrible attitude and are just blatantly rude. I use to pass it off as they are young people. But that really isn't an excuse. From the looks of this Vons , I'm pretty sure customer service training is not available. New ownership is in desperate need and complete new hires as well. Horrible store. read more

4/5 stars because every time we come here it seems there is either a homeless person asking for money, police cars, or people shouting at each other in the parking lot. This is the closest grocery story to my aunt's house, so when we need something, this is where we end up. We shop at Von's in the city we live in but our store is very different than this store. Von's always has the items we need so that's a plus. read more

Stopped here to find a bathroom but it wasn't available :( Bought some limited edition oreo cookies that were super good. Staff was friendly. Store was clean. Good selection and easy to find off the 101 but really needed that restroom. read more

The customer service is non-existent. Today, I went to Vons because I need to gallons of water. When I placed my water jugs on the conveyor belt, the cashier was chatting with the customer in front of me, being very friendly with them. When that customer walked away, thing immediately changed. I was not greeted AT ALL. The cashier, Tessa, rang up my water, grabbed the receipt, held it out to me, and said "Here". THAT'S IT!! She was obviously too busy chatting with two other employees to give customer service. I honestly received the impression that I was an interruption to her conversation. This was the 1dt time I was treated like this. It seems to me that Vons doesn't care about their customers. read more

James, Jorge, and Zachary Bishop were extremely helpful and nice. They made sure I felt welcomed and valued. Everything was nice and organized when I came in and they knew their store and lead me to the exact isle and location of the items I needed! The item I came in for wasn't out on the shelf, but Zachary wasn't gonna let that slide and went to the back to get the item for me!!!!! Thank you guys for your excellent service!!! read more

placed another order and omg to evan!! thank you!!! he was so fast! plus he tolerated the drunks in the white truck!!! thank you evan!!! fast service and accurate service! read more

I worked there for 15 years I'm so grateful I quit I don't miss working there one bit working for a grocery store is too chaotic u have to do shit for people left and right read more

Please Vons, whatever you do, please don't remodel this place at all costs!! I know it sounds silly but I come to this specific location from a long L.A. drive just to admire the way the interior looks!! I just LOVE the vintage and retro look this store has. The nostalgia it gives off cannot compare to those of other stores. Literally I think this and Vons #2386 are the only 2 remaining vons with this retro interior look. Please keep this vintage look and I promise to be a loyal and supportive customer for as long as I can. read more

Unfortunately this is the only vons in town this is probably my least favorite grocery store, I wish this vons would get remodeled it's so small and really needs to be upgraded. It's convenient for being close to home if you need to go to the store and get something fast. The customer service is ok, there might be a manager still there that is nice and friendly. read more

Friendliest neighborhood market around! From the newbies like Bianca to the old school cashiers Calvin, Robert, Kim.... they each take the time to get to know their customers, and I feel really valued as a customer here. They always have what I need and are really efficient at the checkout. read more

Vons - So much fun! I need more of these in my life - Grocery Near Me - Santa Maria, California

There are 6 checkout counters, only one or two is ever open. The line to check out is always ridiculous. I had enough time standing in line to download this app and post this review for example. Checkers who are here are doing the best they can, whoever runs this place needs to hire some help. read more

Vons - Checkout line - Grocery Near Me - Santa Maria, California

The Vons in Santa Maria on Main Street store is extremely overpriced on meat. $36 for a small Tri Tip, $27 for an average sized London broil, and Forget about chicken beasts...lmao!!! I won't bother to go there. It is too sad!! Same with canned goods. Not sure why these prices are so high here. If in the area, PLEASE shop elsewhere so as not to get completely robbed. read more

As a Ralphs member I came here and it didn't hurt at all! Had to get some stuff for my stay up here for work and the microwave in the hotel. Easy to find stuff and friendly cashier. Very busy at 4:30pm after work but in and out quickly. read more

For some reason this Von's, always has super long lines to check out. It's the closest supermarket to our house and I absolutely hate having to go there. I figured going at 9:00pm it should be fine but oh no, it wasn't! read more

Vons - Debating getting in the line that is going into the produce department 9:08pm, ugh! - Grocery Near Me - Santa Maria, California

Part of Safeway stores and so we used our safeway card also. Visiting from the bay we were all excited when our groceries were bagged in plastic bags lol. Prices were decent just like Safeways in the bay. However selection was somewhat limited as we were looking for fresh baked french roll. They had some but defin not fresh baked like daily. Produce was fresh though and the employees were friendly. Layout was easy to find stuff. Had pretty much everything we needed. read more

On my way into town this vons offers Convenience and Quickness..

They work hard to accommodate the customer & there's a checker there who really knows how to go the extra mile to be friendly & helpful. Will be using his isle from now on.... My opinion of this place has changed over the 2 years from dislike to like. They have gotten better at making sure ad items are in stock & not missing from shelves. Seems cleaner as well. read more

Everything you expect from a supermarket. The produce looked very fresh. Happy U.K customer

Problems. most the stuff on ad sales is never stocked. the meat section is a joke. the guys that work in the meat section are weird and lazy. long lines over worked checkers. watch dates too often food is expired. read more

Come here way to often cause it's right by my house. Not as cheap as Food Maxx, but when i just need to stop in quick, it's the way to go. Really wish they had a bakery like the one of Broadway though. Nice people, good deli. read more

The produce section is better thought of as a produce hospice, I have witnessed a cascading fall of unattended spilling milk in the dairy aisle, and I once held with mine own hands a glob of what appeared to be a shrink wrapped loogie collection but which was, in fact, long expired pre-cooked pasta. read more

Well it is the closest to my house, and I do use it often (and I go to all the others too for some things) so today, I wanted to talk about the flowers here, They do a fine job at very reasonable prices. I like that and I like fresh flowers! --------------------- Part two The Deli! what great 5 dollar deals for a quick, nice sandwich. Remember don't shop hungry, lest you buy too much of the wrong things! We often stop here for a sandwich before a movie to cut the desire for the movie junk with its very high prices and fat content! read more

Rude cashier. I tried to use their sale paper for the buy 4 items get sell price. I couldn't find a item,I asked a young work,he said to ask the cashier. When I was checking out,I asked the cashier about the sugar which is one of the 4 items i needed to get the sell price, She said they were out,I'll give you a raincheck. And you only have 2 items of the 4, I said but your out of sugar,that's not my fault, she said nasty, it's not my fault either, I said so I get the price?, She said no! Then I said but I have the coffee creamer that included in the 4 items on page 6. She said no.then the manager at the next register said is there a problem,I showed him the paper then he told her to give me the price,and I said I'll Buy another egg that makes 4 . Last time I went to this store, a guy was stabbed right in front of the store, the police blocked my car in Andi had to wait for them to get done to get my car out so I could leave.the only reason I went back to this store is because my work have me a gift card. And I wasn't feeling well,so I just thought I would go in for a few items. I only go to this store maybe once a year, now I won't be back .with 2 bad experiences! Nancymad5 read more

I love this Vons all the employees go the extra mile when I'm there. Mariah was very helpful helped me with all my groceries to the car

Very rude staff. On a non-busy night, I went to the express lane, the only light on, to pay my groceries. The gal on the express items cashier gave me a smarty, irritated response, "This is only for few items. You should go there", while pointing at the other cashier that wasn't there before and light was off. I told her that her lane is the only one on. She said, "That's fine!" in a manner that conveys irritability. She was really bitchy while scanning my items. She didn't even look at me in the eye and kept silent with a frown on her face like she had the right to be mad. There wasn't a long line of people. Give me a break! A lot of negative experiences I've had before and after that. The last experience I had was when I was looking for an item. The gal was talking and talking to her co worker how she will take her time putting items on the counter. Ive waited for their conversation to be finished before I asked NICELY if they have some of those Mexican spice that you put on pretty much any fruit. I have looked everywhere before asking. I just want to know if it's hidden somewhere. The gal responded, "I don't know. I don't even like spicy stuff", and then walked away before I could reply. It's not about her, it's what I need to buy on that store. I'm really upset how ghetto attitude and how much they have subzero customer service. This store is supposed to be the most convenient because it's closest to and from work. But this is one shitty Vons branch. I'm just gonna go to Nipomo or other place instead. read more

I like the ladies that work there this is why the 4 stars but the deli is the slowest one I have ever been too! We waited for 35 mins for the guy to acknowledge we were waiting as well as 5 other people! I did all my shopping while my daughter waited when I was done she was still waiting! Step up your game dude! read more

Managers at this location seem to think very highly of themselves, seeing as how they will loudly proclaim their position at Vons in stores other than Vons. This location also seems to only ever employee a single checker at any given time. Went in last Halloween (big day for buying liquor and candy and such) and there was literally 1 associate checking, took 10+ minutes to purchase a single bottle of alcohol and bottle of water. I don't blame the associate at all, I blame the poor management of this store. read more

This place is a mess! The sandwich place has a sign that says free sandwich if it takes longer than 5 min. They did comp one sandwich though. This Von's is in a seedy part of Lompoc, so maybe that's why it isn't that great. read more

Old, smelly and worst service. I live by this Vons, but I drive to the one on Broadway. The workers are so rude; there's always long lines; half of the store smells like fish; I could go on and on. Just don't go here. Go to the one on Broadway. They're nice and the store is updated. read more

This is by far the worst Vons I have ever been to. I just recently moved to the area and the Vons on Main Street is the closest to my home. I was hoping for it to be my "go to" grocery store. But every time I go there I end up having to go somewhere else to get everything. It's a small run down store that needs a major facelift. Yesterday was the last straw for me. I had a craving for spaghetti and had everything I needed at home except ground beef so I thought I'd just run to this Vons since it's the closest. Can you believe they had NO ground beef? None. I asked the guy behind the meat counter if they had some in back thinking maybe they had a special and just hadn't had chance to restock. He told me that their meat grinder was broke and it had been putting metal fragments in the meat so they decided to stop using it. "Ya think?" He also said as far as he knew there were no plans in the near future to replace the grinder. I have no complaints about the staff. They seem friendly enough but it's hard to find someone to help you if you can't find something. read more

So I went to get some shopping done since I didn't wanted to drive all the way to Arroyo Grande I stop really quick to there bakery to buy some food. And they had 2 people one lady and gentlemen he was really help full all the way but the older lady she was rude as hell. Constantly winning about having to be there that people needed to stay home that they should not be in the stores just straight rude as hell. To me sorry to say but sounds like you don't really have to be there at all stay at home I am a manager in another store and right now you should be lucky and grateful to have a job because most of the rest of the American people are without a job stressing how there going to pay there bills and rent and provide for there family and yet here your winning why your working be more grateful please people!!!! And most of there stuff was really nice and helpful specially there cashier's but this lady she needs to chill and keep her comments to her self or stay home period read more

It's 11:52pm, there's an employee standing at the door letting people out, there's several people in line, and I need TWO THINGS. Employee tells me they're "closing at midnight" Holding my phone, that says 11:52pm, I show her the time, state that it's 1152 and that I need two things I know where they are and I promise to be quick. Asks supervisor, who denies me access. TWO THINGS!!!! I would've been in and out before you knew it Miss Bada$$ Supervisor!!! I walk fast and I KNOW WHERE THE COFFEE CREAMER AND KOMBUCHA ARE MISS THANG!!!! I SPEND A LOT OF MONEY AT VONS AND I USED TO WORK AT THEIR CORPORATE OFFICES IN PLEASANTON!!! The CEO, VPs and Marketing Departments I used to prepare corporate breakfasts and lunches for wouldn't be pleased to know what their underlings are doing at the store level. But what do I know? I only needed two things eight minutes before they were closing. You just lost a loyal customer Santa Maria Vons, I'll stop in Nipomo on my way home from work if I don't go to the one by my work in SLO first. Pffffttttt!!!!! read more

I usually shop here because of the convince of being so close to my job. Another main reason why I shop here is because this place is one of the few places that on occasion carry the horizon gallon milk me and my family drink. Majority of the time they carry It but it's either expired or about to expire within 1 to 2 days. Last week I went in, I was excited cause I saw from a far that they had the milk but to come to realize that the milk that they had on the shelf had been expired for about a week. When we tell them that it's expired they don't remove it from the shelf right away. So peeps just check ur milk before u buy it from here. read more
