"We're almost out of wine." Hubbers and Mom said…read more The last time we stoked up was from a Vons wine sale a few weeks back, so it only made sense to look there first before anywhere else. Low and behold: they still have the same specials! Didn't need to look any further! We did the same restock, and with the membership price, it was a steal. Only one hiccup on this stop: I was looking for a particular brand and asked staff where I could find it. He responded quickly with, "if it's not there, we're most likely out of it." Not true. According to the app, what I'm looking for was available. This tells me he was too lazy to help us out. But it worked out well since we found another brand she really likes for much less, so: SCORE. Not my usual Vons store, but I was in the area, so it was pretty convenient. Will most likely return when the need comes up again.

I was really surprised to stumble upon this big, spacious local bodega/grocery store just a block…read moreor two from the beach. It's unexpectedly large for a place by the shore, and I was thrilled because even though I checked Yelp and Google, I couldn't find much info. They're open super early and stay open late, and it's just such a gem especially since that area tends to shift toward restaurants or other businesses. This neighborhood really needed a good grocery store, and they have everything: fresh meat, drinks, snacks, fruits just like a full local grocery. The staff was really nice and laid-back, though the only downside is that parking is super limited and intersection it's tough to get in and out since it's near a small with a red light. Still, I'm really glad it's there, and I want to give a big shout-out to the local folks to support this place. The prices are really reasonable, and we need to keep these local businesses thriving. they're the heart of the community. I gave them five stars. I just hope they can clean it up a bit inside, maybe freshen up the shelves or ceiling. But overall, I'm so happy it's here, and we need more of these places in our city.

While I'm over here thinking about ten things at once, he's steady, patient, and cool as ever -- the kind of calm that makes you slow down and breathe a little. He doesn't rush you, doesn't make you feel like a bother, and he always makes sure whatever you're printing comes out right. In a world where good customer service feels like a disappearing art, Chris shows up with kindness, professionalism, and a whole lot of grace. Walgreens, hold on to that man.

The reason for the bad review is the current price gouging during this pandemic. It's very unfortunate to see a "local" spot selling single rolls of toilet paper for $6/roll.

There's a difference between taking advantage of an open market and exploiting the folks that support you day in and day out. Pretty shameful.

Dropping by here for my nightly runs after work at times is helpful they're still open. It's the fast little stop before heading back to my huge home of many. The team here is nothing short of incredible--they are always helpful, nice, and genuinely kind. I'm especially grateful for them because they always keep my favorite, super-specific toothpaste in stock. It's like they just know I'm coming! Haha Last night was the perfect example of their magic; I was in and out in a flash. Everything is always so beautifully organized and clean, but can we talk about the restrooms? Wow! I was honestly blown away by how spotless they keep them--definitely not your average store experience. It's just such a fun, stress-free place to shop. If you're looking for a spot where the staff actually cares and everything is perfectly in its place, while restrooms are the cleanest, this is the place to be. Like Wow. Lol read more

Since my child had already been running a fever for four days and was diagnosed with bronchitis, I wanted to get the medication the same day. I told them to forget it, and they didn't say another word--just gave me cold stares as I left. Also, they did not transfer our prescription to Ralph.
