I love Cal Mart. They have everything you need to survive. You pay a premium, but everything in Calistoga has a premium. This is no ordinary town. The food is very healthy. The prices are bearable, considering your options. If you're used to 5-star fare, you will find they have a fine selection of wines and cheeses, chocolates, meat and produce. Really good stuff. Their deli and sandwiches rock. The staff is very helpful and polite. Really nice folks. I love Cal Mart, and I feel good about spending my money there! read more

We stayed at the Calistoga Spa Hot Springs, which is a short walk through the parking lot of Ace, and we had a kitchenette, I wish we listened to the lady in the warm pool and we could've had home-cooked food - we were so tired of eating out! It was nice, not too expensive, and the deli had some good stuff. They had a variety of already-chilled drinks, some I'd never seen before, and had to try. The staff was nice and even if I lived here, I could see myself shopping here weekly - a nice little grocery store. read more

WOW! $7 true deli sandwich, in Calistoga! I would have paid $15 for this stacked pastrami, Swiss on GF bread and loaded! The big kicker was that wasabi horseradish sauce! Cheers to Cal-Mart! read more

This grocery store would be amazing if only for its cheese selection. I mean, there's frickin' cow's milk cheese with sea salt and honey. HONEY. Not to mention Clover milk, an array of local beers and wines, and more boutique chocolate than you could eat in a month. Plus, there's a decent deli and salad bar inside, with huge sandwiches on squishy sourdough for less than ten bucks. read more

Perhaps one the best markets in wine country. At first, we were concerned there weren't enough grocery options that far North of Napa. We usually buy as much as we can in Napa to avoid having to make a truck back down south for Fresh meats at the Fatted Calf or produce from Oxbow...however since we discovered Cal Mart, all of our concerns are no longer. They have a great great selection of Cheeses - unbelievable cuts of Meats - fresh Seafood (shrimps and lobster are great), Produce is incredible - fresh and all organic. They don't lack anything...it's pretty much a high end food market for all levels of taste. Even their Fried Chicken and Deli Sandwiches are amazing. We're lucky...it's a 10 minute bike ride from our house and now that we know of this place, I can jump on the beach cruiser each morning to grab a baguette, some cheese and eggs for breakfast each morning. It doesn't suck. read more

I like that Cal Mart has started incorporating some higher quality ingredients (aka organic, free range etc...) into their hot bar area. I hate paying good money for hot bar food that I may as well get at a fast food restaurant. Keep up the good work Cal Mart! The rotisserie free range Mary's chickens and Beeler's pork tenderloin really save the day when I'm tired after work. read more

I think it's safe to assume I have become a Cal mart addict! It truly is a charming market with some of the most personable staff. Kevin and David are my favorite, they are always so polite. Iam constantly amazed with the inventory of Cal mart. I find something new, amazing, and generally delicious almost every time I go. The deli is where I can be found, or circling the salad bar. Behind the deli counter you can find: chillies rellenos, rice salad, dolmas, and the best sandwiches.The range of variety is quite mind blowing! Although their deli is delicious, Cal marts produce is off the hook delectable. As well as their cheeses. Nom nom nom! I have definitely fallen in love with this charming market. Once you step foot inside, you will too! read more

I purchased a few things from this store and 2 of them were expired. The cheese that I bought was expired and the organic milk expired the next day after I purchased it. Never went back to exchange the produce but I didn't call them and they were very apologetic that is the reason I gave them 2 stars. If you shop here always make sure to check the expiration dates on everything. read more

I LOVE this store! So, Calistoga is not known as a place to visit on a budget, but if you are making the splurges your priority (wine, spa treatments, etc) and the necessities (food, hotel etc) on a budget, you can stay on track w/ getting your vittles here and eating in a park or on the road. I mean - it's not like the 'atmosphere' isnt just stellar to do that! It was convenient for picking up my necessities on the way home from work but mostly I loved them for the things that I craved while trolling the area on my days off. Their ready-to-eat offerings are great - salad bar is one of my all-time favs. In the deli, there is a sandwich for everyone. If you want something warm, they have breakfast (scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage to b'fast burritos) or lunch & dinner 'blueplates' for on-the-go. I would hit the ready-to-eat stuff, grab drinks and be out the door w/ plenty for my husband and I to eat for $15-20 as opposed to dropping $30-40 for lunch at a restaurant in town and was equally satisfied. Fresh meat - they carry 'air-cooled' chicken which is incredible. Want an obscure cheese? Check the cheese dept - if you cant find it, ask. You will be pointed to something at parity or that will blow your socks off. Wine selection is small but thoughtful - you will not go wrong with any choice which is offered and there is plenty there for any budget. Oh, the chocolate! Check the candy section - their chocolate ranges from typical to esoteric. Even the snacks and drinks in the 'snack aisle' are great...chocolate corn chips, gouda popcorn, odd teas, sodas you may not have seen in years, local water etc. Produce area is small but choice. Grab some carrots or crazy crackers and then head over to the deli section and pick one of their many varieties of hummus. They have some bulk snacks for easy grabbing. Staff is always helpful and sweet. Great place to visit for anything you crave or need and a creative way to keep a budget if you need/want to. read more

Heading to our hotel in Calistoga, I was getting scared that I wouldn't find a single place where I could buy sandwich materials for our picnic the next day. Cal Mart was the only supermarket that showed up on my navigation system, and I was a little skeptical about what this store would be like. However, I was so relieved when I walked in to the bright store and immediately saw a colorful, fresh collection of produce. There was also a variety of different foods including interesting local foods, a great dessert section, natural foods, etc. I wish I had more time to check this place out, although it's probably a good thing I didn't because a lot o f things look good and everything is a little expensive. So overall, Cal Mart is a little bit pricey, but it's the only supermarket around, and it has a great variety! Plus the service was fast and friendly. read more

I've been so spoiled by Whole Foods and Berkeley Bowl that I forget what it's like to shop at a regular grocery stores. This one has many of the natural products you'd find at a hippie joint, but you'd better go to the farmer's market for a good selection of organic produce. Their prepared foods section is impressive for a small store, and of course the bet and wine selection is good too. read more

Nice store, if a bit pricey. This is the only supermarket around. They have a big deli, with what I hear are good sandwiches. Gets very crowded at lunchtime when school is in. Also a good selection of hot food. They have lots of local stuff, and a good wine selection. They have salt water taffy in the bulk foods section which is way cheaper than what is charged at the downtown candy shop. They have a good price on It's-It's (ice cream sandwiches). The staff is very friendly. Tyler was especially helpful in getting me some Jax Y3 Chardonnay. The prices tend to be high. Keep in mind, you are in a tourist town, and this isn't Safeway. read more

Very impressed by the selection here! My family and I were vacationing in Calistoga and were interested in cooking our own dinner. We were impressed by the quality of steaks and the variety of hamburgers. (We tried the ones with jalapeno peppers. Delicious!) This store also has an wide variety of cheeses and wines. A bit on the pricey end, but this place rocks! read more

This place reminded me a lot of Berkeley Bowl, aka my favorite grocery store. They had soooo much cheese and soooo much wine, which is what you should expect from Callistoga. Even though they have all the local, special stuff, they still have all your favorite sodas and chips. read more

This is one of the best small home town markets this side of the Mississippi River. This market is a must see and shop. Locally owned. Well organized and many organic Whole Foods selections. The staff is always very helpful and knowledgeable. Very positive place to shop and experience. Don't miss the opportunity of doing some shopping here. read more

I wish I could give this store negative stars. We were evacuated during the Tubbs fire had many people and 7 horses. We were out of food and water, went to Calmart to get something and were turned away because the power was out. I asked if we could buy something because we had evacuated and were out of food and water. We were told no and the door was shut in our faces. We went down to the Fast and Easy gas station where they were happy to sell us water for cash. The Calmart is the only grocery store in Calistoga and I was horrified that they wouldn't help people who were stranded and in need of food and water. I will never spend a dime in that store again. read more

My fiance and I's car broke down in Calistoga, CA. We showed up at Cal Mart right at closing time and told the deli what happened. They were so sweet! Even payed for my sandwich!!! Even though it was free, this was the best sandwich I have had in a long time. The bread made it! We also bought a pre made sandwich & marinaded olives which were also 10/10! Thanks so much for making a terrible night better! You guys rock! read more

Usually Calmart is a very pleasant experience but today i had a totally different experience. First off i had ordered something at the deli and asked the man employee how he is doing. His response to me is that everything is going backwards. I didn't understand what he meant. He said that all of Napa valley will be shut down because of people like me. I had no clue what he was talking about. I was only able to walk into the store because i was compliant in wearing a mask and the dude at deli counter said i wasn't wearing it properly. Isn't there only one way to wear a face mask? I wasn't wearing it around my neck or on top of my head. The mask was on my face like a mask is supposed to be worn. Then a woman at the checkout counter was extremely rude as well. The world is messed up enough right now with all of the hate everywhere, Calmart please teach your employees some sort of manners on how to treat your customers. It is really sad and really quite pathetic that employees of grocery stores now are now feeling entitled to treat paying customers like they are doing something wrong when in fact they were doing what was expected of them. read more

This regular looking supermarket has really improved: they now also sell fine selection of quality local and imported cheeses, many types olives & antipasti, but most surprisingly, hot freshly prepared dishes(almost gourmet barring the supermarket setting) Most memorably, I once feasted for take-out brunch on "srawberry tamales". It goes without saying they have a great selection of wines and fresh produce even organic. read more

Neat little market in the small town of Calistoga, a bit on the expensive side but stopped here for lunch when we were visiting Calistoga and they had a good hot food section and a good deli! Cashier was a bit on the rude side but Hey its a market, I wouldn't be the happiest fellow either if I worked there. read more

Great little market to grab a hot breakfast and picnic supplies to keep you fueled between wineries! We grabbed snacks, water and coffee essentials to keep at the boutique hotel. Perfect location to get to quickly in case of the last minute need. read more

We came to Napa valley on a celebration of our anniversary and came into cal mart for a few lunch items and left with an entire bag of groceries. Sodas sandwiches chips potato salad two slices of cake and only paid 12$. They took a little time to make my sandwich so it was free and so was almost everything else. Awesome friendly and I will definitely be back read more

Great, convenient grocery store with all the staples and more. Parking lot can get tight but the selection is excellent for a smaller store.

Im picky about my food. This was the first time getting sandwiches from here. I have to say this was the best sandwiches we have ever had. I had the hot Italian Penni on a sweet roll. I didn't make any changes to this sandwich. My husband had a cold Italian sub on same bread with mustard, lettuce, and tomato. I wasn't even hungry but couldn't stop once I started! Great job!! Wish we could have this back at home. read more

Cal Mart - Grocery Near Me - Calistoga, California

See all

The only grocery store in all of Calistoga.... which is ok, because they are on par with price and variety. They have a great deli and hot food section - great for grabbing and going. Just be sure to get there by the early evening for hot foods. They tend to run out, then its slim pickings. read more

Deli sandwiches are good, employees need to take their heads out of their you know where. (some, not all) Your employees ducked up on my sandwich for the last time... Asked for only 4 things on it and they still managed to leave one thing out and add mayo, which the word mayo never even left my mouth. You need to let customers fill out those little cards so there's no more mix ups. And no, it's not my responsibility to check it before I leave, and I'm not taking time off my work day to get a new one. You just lost a deli customer. Just fyi this tends to happen when you got more than three people back there running an assembly line. It's like the mayo guy doesn't even read the lunch ticket and just slathers it on every sandwich, like he doesn't give two sheets if the people even like it. (I don't, and it makes food inedible for me.) One other time I made sure they marked only what I wanted and I told the person to "cross off everything else." Sure enough they didn't and I got a bunch of condiments I didn't ask for. This would be a five star review if it weren't for those mistakes that seem to happen just after lunch that make me throw away almost perfect sandwiches. The rest of the store is awesome and all your employees should get raises for working harder than at any other place I go to in town. P.S. It would be dope if you let customers fill out the deli sandwich cards, I think thats part of why there are problems with the orders. (some buddies have the same exact thing happen to them but they can post reviews of they even feel like it, I'm not gonna jabber on here, on their behalf... Meh.) read more

I love this store and go now quite frequently as there are great selections of Vegetables, meat, cheese (very high end unique cheeses hard to find anywhere else) ( Also, wonderful selection of candles and flowers to liven up your home. I go here so much I know everyone on a first name bases. read more

I really wanted to love this cute local grocery store, and inside, I just about did. I was surprised to see how many choices they packed into that little store. The bakery looked nice, the hot self-serve bar looked clean and fresh. But please please clean up the outside of the store. I walked up to the front not knowing what town I was in and if I was going to get stabbed in the parking lot! It's dirty everywhere outside. The ground, the windows, the décor old and all over the place...all seem like they haven't been attended to in months. It worries me about what I wasn't seeing about the inside. You can't keep your grounds ugly and dirty and expect me to believe you're treating the food areas inside differently. read more

We love going to Calistoga for the sprint car races at least a couple of times a year and when we go we grab the ice chest, fill it with ice and hit Cal Mart. First the excellent sandwiches, always plentiful and fresh bread and meats, can't go wrong when ordering one. Deli items, any salad or pastas you may crave, chicken, soups, the works. You name it, they have it including chili rellenos, enchiladas, tamales, burritos, samosas, paninis, stuffed baked potatoes, gourmet cheeses, etc. And if you need more, there's always the store selections with a huge wine and beer department. Anything you need they'll probably have it at Cal Mart! Fun just going there and looking around, so much to choose from. read more

Yeah! Thanks yelp! Picked up a few items for a hike up Mt. St. Helena. Great prices! Picked up some fancy salts in the back left corner and Sonoma salad dressing for $4.00. Beats Dean & Deluca prices for similar items by a mile! Woo hoo! Love me a good deal! read more

What a wonderful grocery store! They have a full deli with delicious sandwiches that we took out on our stay in Calistoga. Their salad bar is right up there with Whole Foods in terms of variety and freshness, but the prices are lower than any grocery store I've encountered in awhile. Whether you're buying groceries or just getting some munchies for a picnic, Cal Mart is your place. read more

Ridiculously small organic produce selection, especially considering the proximity to good growers. Staff is generally nice, though occasionally judgmental. Glad they have some odds and ends like mason jars for canning. read more

Great store with tons of options of wine and cheeses to choose from! A little on the pricey side but that's expected in Napa Valley.

Should add another $ sine to the business it's pretty expensive. They have an amazing breakfast,lunch,and dinner bar. Overall it's a small town store higher prices but everything in wine country is higher priced. read more

We had about an 1hour to spare before an appointment for wine tasting, its not enough time for a sit down place and there aren't any fast food places in Calistoga. Cal Mart was the perfect choice as they offer a deli and many hot items to grab and go. I had a Italian Sub Panini which was absolutely delightful. Prices were decent and the only negative I have is the service. The guy who made my order didn't greet me, I approached him and he stared... I asked for the sandwich and he went on his way. He didn't smile or say anything, he basically just handed me the finished product. It was pretty weird. I grabbed the food and went to the winery where I was able to eat lunch in a beautiful setting. read more

I've tried to think of a better grocery store but, failing that, I have five stars for Cal Mart. Let me count the whys... I have five stars for Cal Mart because... They bake their own amazing bread (but please leave a sour batard for me). They strike an excellent balance between quality (Strauss ice cream!) and price (they have very good wine, cheese, and coffee at every point of the price spectrum). They listen to their customers and change: take a look at the comment wall and try to think of a corporate grocery store chain that does the same. They make excellent sandwiches to take with you when hiking Mt. St. Helena. They carry local, organic produce. They have canning jars. They have jalapeno poppers sometimes. They carry cakes from Sweetie Pies in Napa, and I ordered six of them for a cake bar for my wedding at the Calistoga Community Center. The service from Cal-Mart was perfect and left nothing to be desired: cake ordering, prices, sizes, delivery timing, etc. was spot on and one of the more pleasant retail experiences I've had in recent years. The check-out folks smile and make eye contact and make conversation (vs. the mumble-shuffle-mumble-that-leads-to-me-screaming-WHAT? that I experience at most grocery stores). Go here for anything you need. You'll enjoy it. read more

O.m.f.g. Trader Joe's on steroids! I want this store transplanted next door to my house!

ya know, i was born and raised in the south. with that being said, i was raised with the perspective "fruit & nuts" when we talked about california and its residents. sadly, that's an opinion that's not just whispered, but shared out loud to anyone who will listen. i remember being in church and my "youth pastor" making that reference several times. and let's face it folks, people from california do, do it, differently. but as i've grown older i've come to see it as an expression of individual freedom that is repressed in other parts of mainland america. it's unique, fresh, embraced and well-earned. this store exemplifies "california" and its people. i've yet to visit san francisco that i don't make a day trip to this area, go to cal-mart, buy way too much stuff, more often then not have lunch in the parking lot from their "prepared food" section and enjoy the rest of what we bought in the form of a "room picnic" at some cheap hotel in st helena. i love cal-mart - it doesn't get much better than this. california peeps are so lucky!!!!! if the "prepared food" section doesn't keep you interested, there is an awesome salad bar, awesome olive bar, huge awesome wine/beer selection, even bigger/awesomer cheese selection, organic this-and-that, breads, you name it - they've got it. i love the whole "hippy gone modern" thing they do business as. its so cool and thankfully, its slowly spreading here to hawaii. i've seen some tourist in the area doing the "wine thing", come in, nose curled, pointing at this-and-that, whispering to each other about the decline of civilazation as we know it, cal-mart having a direct affect. that type will never like a place such as this. but, if you have the capability of "letting-go" of the attitude you will love cal-mart and all that it has to offer. read more

Friendly service and great location. The selection of products is a real treat - fresh fruits and vegetables, an amazing selection of local cheeses (and the woman at the cheese counter was VERY helpful), a deli, prepared items, olive bar (the green olives stuffed with garlic!!!). we will definitely return on our next trip to Calistoga....wish this market were closer to home....I would be a regular. read more

Amazing produce; Fully stocked with tons of specialty wines, cheeses and meats ... great for picking up goods for an impromptu picnic. A fully operational bakery, cold cut and sandwich dept. The cheese monger had some great cheese options to pair with bottles we were planning on opening that day. Full buffet with gourmet selections. All in all, a great find when you are visiting the Napa Valley. read more
