    a notice from the u s

    Today I experienced a complete denial of service from this establishment because I am a service dog handler. The proprietor stopped me as soon as I entered the facility and insisted we leave because dogs are not welcome. My service animal is clearly vested, is task trained to mitigate an invisible disability, and meets all ADA requirements for public assess. I attempted to address with the proprietor that, under ADA law, service dogs are exempt from no pet policies, but continued to be denied service. I took my business elsewhere and have filed reports with both the Department of Justice and the City of Escondido in hopes that these discriminatory practices will not affect other service dog teams, and will continue to take my service elsewhere. For other teams who are looking for a safe and welcoming place to shop, the 7-11 a block away on E Valley Parkway was much more accommodating.

    Ive been here many times, and I still feel compelled to walk down every aisle, every time…read more Their large selection of grocery items is truly impressive. I still always catch myself saying, they have THAT too?! That includes their beer section. They even have multiple choices for non- alcoholic beer. Have tried a couple of the deli sandwiches, and so far everything has been delicious there too.

    This place is an absolute staple of the Hidden Meadows community. I've been getting pizza here for…read moreas long as I can remember, and to this day it's still the best pizza I've ever had. There is truly nothing like it. Their sandwiches are incredible! Flavorful, filling, and always a great portion size. And don't even get me started on their breakfast burritos. It's honestly a shame they only serve them until around 10:30-11am, because they're that good. You can really tell they know what they're doing when it comes to solid, house-made, deli-style meals. One of the best things about Meadows Deli Market is the consistency. I can rely on the food being amazing every single time, which is not an easy thing to pull off, and they've absolutely nailed it. The market itself is also great. They have so many options, and I can always count on them when I need something in a pinch. They even have a section dedicated to European and specialty foods, which is always fun to explore. The service is truly outstanding. Everyone is incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional, and there's just a really nice family-style atmosphere when you walk in. It's mostly a grab-and-go type of place, but the care and friendliness always stand out. I mean it when I say nothing compares to this market. If you're looking for great pizza, sandwiches, or....you're lucky enough to catch them in time for a breakfast burrito, this is the place, 100%. So thank you to Meadows Deli Market for serving our community and being such a long-standing staple in the area!!!
