Cute market, really nice staff. Prices were very standard for deli sandwiches these days (close to $35 for two sandwiches including tax). Overall I'd give this place another shot to try some other menu items but we were really only impressed with the chimichurri sandwich. The relish, bell peppers and all the fixings were amazing!! The glenn wrap was underwhelming and needed more of that chipotle mayo. I've had better deli sandwiches but these were still tasty (not bad by any means). read more

Great little market. Had the pizza we had gotten at the farmers market great price too

Once I found Carlsbad Ranch Market, after trying to cut through the Costco parking lot (big mistake), I was in love. Fresh salads, gourmet cookies and heirloom tomatoes worth the 5 hour drive from Tucson! Oh and BTW, the mini, teeny Chuaos that I love in ALL flavors that are $1.35 there, are 99 cents here in the Old Pueblo. FYI. Still, those tomatoes brought back memories of the Jersey beefsteaks of my childhood. I'll be back in a few months, and that's the first place I'm going. Oh and the dude who helped me was adorable! Nice little patio too! read more

Wonderful sandwiches and produce! The Italian sandwich is delicious. It never fails, it's always perfect. The salads are amazing. The service is always attentive & it's small but super clean. read more

been stopping at CARLSBAD RANCH MARKET for years but swinging by now that their neighbor, Tip Top Meats, has shuttered their doors is suddenly a lot harder. the "hey, their sandwiches are also really good" has proved to be a handy excuse on multiple occasions. can't say enough positive things (still) about their organic, local heirloom tomatoes. my eighteen-year-old needed a couple for a Caprese Salad and it was lunchtime anyway. don't you just love the synchronicity of the universe? read more

Visited today for the first time. Ordered an egg salad sandwich on squaw bread. The egg salad is very chunky and tastes pretty good. It definitely needed more salt and pepper. The bread was also quite dry and started to fall apart. I had to eat about half without bread and with a fork. For the price I would expect the bread not to do that. I do think the portions are very good. The sandwich was made as ordered! Nice little market. May return and try a different sandwich and bread. read more

Their deli makes really delicious wraps, smoothies, and juices. Highly recommend the Walter wrap. It's light but huge, they really pack it up, so I recommend sharing one. It's fresh and delicious, a perfect healthy lunch option that I would be happy to eat everyda They are pricey but you can find discounts online. read more

It was my first time there and I love it , I wish they have this in Arizona also sense I was visiting , vegetables looked so fresh and yummy they guy behind the register was also great and so friendly he was very helpful I got some breads happy with my purchase everyone should try it read more

these was my first time at these deli and minimart. They sell a good assortment of fresh produce, wine, crackers, snacks, and other food. The food selections look really interesting. Additionally, they have a deli counter where they make incredible sandwiches. The prices were reasonable for the very large and well prepared sandwiches. I tried the tuna sandwich with sprouts, lettuce, tomato pepperoncini, and cheddar cheese on a wheat roll! The tuna salad was freshly made and had many vegetables in it. The sandwich was very large. I thought it was a great value. I also saw that they have some breakfast sandwiches at very good prices. I would highly recommend coming here and trying them, much better than any other chain! read more

This is just a great place, it's my wife's favorite spot to pick up lunch. Vince and his crew are always right on it with suggestions and great food. Plus the vegetables and fruit and interesting drinks are worth the visit. The sandwiches are huge and we only get half sandwiches. A little out-of-the-way you have to find it but once you do, you'll go back forever. read more

Excellent sandwiches, steaks, and fresh ingredients for whatever you're making! The fresh OJ is worth the trip.

Used to love this place, but over the years the quality has gone downhill. Twice now I've purchased their to-go salads for $12 and they were both totally inedible. I don't have time to take it back and try to get a refund, but I won't keep wasting money on expired food. read more

They have the best lettuce that is cheaper than Ralph's so is the blue cheese. Great service and sandwiches they use Boars Head meats and cheese. They are located near the old Tip Top Meats. They sell Prime Meats too. read more

A hidden gem in Carlsbad. The sandwich's a great variety hot/cold created with the best ingredients out of this world. Fresh local produce available daily and the beef selection's incredible. One on my favorites are the breakfast burritos at least 5 to choose from. Owner and staff great with their customers. Bottom line visit this grocery store. read more

Love this little place! I always stop in when I'm picking up something from Tip Top because these guys always carry beautiful local produce. I can get the veggie portion of my dinner along with some chips and always a very thorough selection of El Nopalito salsas. Their workers are pretty quiet but are very helpful when you ask them for help. Pro tip- if you love heirloom tomatoes like I do, pop in here because they always have gorgeous ones. read more

This place is super cute and has a lot of great items! Fresh salads, juice, guacamole, craft beer and tons of unique items that I've never even seen before. They also have a deli where they offer fresh made sandwiches and smoothies. Walking in I was not greeted once, the customer service could definitely use some work. I didn't feel welcome at all. I ordered a turkey sandwich from the deli. You grab a slip and circle the items you would like. Easy process. The prices on everything here was quite pricy, the deli sandwich was $11 but it would of been worth it if it was good. My sandwich was very bland. I was really disappointed with the lack on ingredients they use. There was almost no cream cheese on my sandwich and barely any avocado. The only avocado I was able to find was also brown. I was pretty disappointed based on the great reviews. Overall I won't be coming back here for a sandwich, but I do like the uniqueness of items they provide here. Great place for a pit stop. read more

It was my first time in this store today since I started a new job close by. I walked in on my lunch hour to find a sandwich because it was highly recommended by my employees. However, since the moment I walked in there till I left, there were employees staring me down and at every corner, I turned in the store. I don't appreciate being followed, as if I am doing something wrong. I'm upset that I wasn't in a welcoming environment for me to spend my money there. Terrible customer service!!! read more

There appears to have been a change in the entire staff. First sandwich I've ordered since then, it was quite mediocre. It looks like they're skimping on the ingredients. I will give it another go. I was dissatisfied. read more

Awesome people awesome products and sandwich's. So small store but has a big punch. The pasta kits were awesome

Update of my review 10+ years ago. Still 5 Stars. Ranch Market has made significant changes with the times. Still offering the best/freshest fruit s & Vegetables but now with a full blown deli and very large inventory of the best local craft beers. But even with all that it's the fact that Ranch Market listens to its customers. I asked them to consider stocking a second favorite tortilla chip made in Escondido Esperanza. Family owned and produced like the popular chips made in Encinitas. They did. In fact you can go here and choose as they sell both . Only market I know of can claim that. Staff here is very well informed on product . And what gos well with what. Having a party and looking to impress? Shop here ! Ranch Market has the best chips, beer and fresh made salsa/guacamole. If you've been here you know. If you haven't then your missing out. They always have the best seasonal favorites too. read more

Sandwiches are delicious! Fruit is fresh and ripe! Go there for lunch! Service is fast and efficient.

This is the best place to find the usual and the unusual products. Always a delight to be there with super fresh produce and so many other wonderful foods. A terrific Deli and Juice bar - absolutely the best. Staff is super friendly and welcoming. Prices are very good also. Just a wonderful place for many years. Carol read more

Great small market and deli with prepared food that is good. The produce is very good also.

The cashier with long hair would not take my order for the breakfast sandwich, made me go to fill out a paper and give it to the lady, and then guess what I had to wait in line to be checked out and guess where I paid for the sandwich at the cash register with the guy with long hair. I should have just left, but I was hungry. read more

It's hard to write a review of something that has two sections, unless you want to say the same thing about each. Carlsbad Ranch Market sells sandwiches and, pretty much separately, sells specialty groceries and pies. I have different opinions of those two sections. I assign 5 stars to the grocery-and-pies section of the market, and 3 stars to the sandwich section. That averages to 4. The sandwiches were OK, but they were not 5-star OK. I've gotten sandwiches with stale bread. The turkey in my sandwiches was not as fresh as I like. But I ate the whole sandwich every time, and other members of my family ate most of their sandwiches. Their ordering process is clumsy bordering on barbaric, and there is really no place to stand to fill out their peculiar form. I found Carlsbad Ranch Market while looking for a great sandwich shop, and I'm still looking for a great sandwich shop. But I intend to keep buying produce, exotic pantry supplies, pies, and dairy products there. read more

Love the produce here! It isn't much more expensive than the grocery store but it's all super fresh and mostly local. When you walk in you can smell all the fresh fruits and herbs. They also make really yummy custom order sandwiches! Parking is easy! read more

Fresh and local. What else do you need? Sandwiches are made to order. They have bowls and smoothies as well. Need some IPA--yep, they have that too. Go there and get a sandwich. You won't be disappointed. read more

Decent produce, good salsa and chips. If you are desperate buy some juice or can soup or oatmeal... they are only marked up 243 percent, that's why shoppers don't return. read more

Locally owned and operated. SUPPORT LOCAL! Cute little store in the back of a small office complex, selling specialty groceries, dairy, ice cream, homemade salsa, guacamole and salads. They have a full service sandwich, smoothies and cold pressed juice bar. Local veggies and fruits also available for purchase. Cold beer and wine also available. Plenty of cool unique items that will cure everyone's cravings. Great place to come to pick up everything you need for dinner, quick snack or a nice picnic on the way to the beach. read more

Super disappointed!!! Went in to find fruit, and I couldn't find anything organic. I was surprised even the strawberries weren't. Also, the melons were not ripe. Worst part was, I was going to ask a few questions but the man at the register was too busy chit chatting with a couple, and never acknowledged I was there. I walked around for a minute but I could see he had no intention on stopping his chit chatting. There's a group of us who are trying to find small markets to support. This one won't be one of them. read more

Great little market with fresh salads and sandwiches. Also fresh salsa, dressings and produce.

One of the best deli sandwiches in the county. That's it, no secret. This is a straight-forward, small market/deli. They don't play tricks or try to hide less-than-good-quality under some cool sandwich prep technique. They just serve good sandwiches! You want a good deli sandwich that seems like it's impossible to find because there are no good deli sandwich spots left? This is your spot. It's worth the drive. I'll see ya there. read more

Wow! So much fresh food, giant sandwiches that are excellent and really friendly staff! What a hidden gem

Cute ranch market tucked in the corner of the parking lot........nice variety of yummy local grown veggies & fruit to choose from.... you can also get homemade salsa & guacamole..... We purchased the grapes......So sweet & crisp..... mask are required, staff was friendly and there's plenty of parking... prices are a little more than your traditional grocery stores, but it's good to shop local and help small business survive in these crazy times.... Next time we'll try the sandwiches read more

Friendly people, great service. Delicious sandwiches and good produce. They have delicious ready made salads and also delicious pasta/potato salads. read more

Carlsbad Ranch Market is a hidden gem! For starters their staff is very friendly and very knowledgeable. I ordered a #6 Spicy sandwich on rye, oh my gosh it was the best sandwich I've had! I didn't make it out of the parking lot with the first 1/2. I also got a fresh pressed Kale juice and that was delicious too. I will definitely be coming back to shop! They also have a DoorDash option. Thanks for a wonderful experience. read more
