If their prices were comparable to other markets, I would only shop there! The people are very friendly, there are never more than 2 people in line without then opening a new register. Their deli sandwiches are the best in the entire county!! Hands down, my favorite store. (except for the prices) read more

I am done with Claypools. When they jacked the price of a dozen eggs from $4.99 to $6.99 in one week, I was done.

Always a great sandwich! Staff are very friendly, I recommend calling your order because they do get busy during the lunch rush. Highly recommended the chicken salad sandwich if it's not sold out. And don't forget the peppers sold in the store. read more

Claypools Market-Ione - Ione Plaza Market Deli Menu - Grocery Near Me - Ione, California

I work in the small town of Ione, and I love the sandwiches at this market. It is the best in town by my opinion. The people are polite and respectable. There are days I crave their sandwiches, but have to wait until I go to work to get one. I have never been disappointed! read more

This is a great grocery store. If you live in Ione. The bakery is great, the deli counter is great. Prices are a little higher but they do a great job of keeping things in stock and removing all expired food. The staff is friendly and helpful. Stores like these need to be patronized to keep them in our community. read more

Great sandwhich. I always get the California on Dutch crunch. Thats all I can attest to. Keep it up deli crew!

Hidden gem! Delicious fresh or refrigerated! My favorite spot while working for the prison. I'd even buy stuff to take home which was an hour away. With these sandwiches, I don't know how Subway stays in business next door. read more

Best place to go for deli and sandwiches in Ione. Everything is always fresh. The service is always friendly and efficient.

Sandwich was ok.. Got home and didn't have what I ordered on it, which is the most frustrating feeling. Seems like a lot of other people dealt with the same issue. read more

Great selection and freshness. The prices are what they are, basically Safeway level but without having to drive up the hill. I love supporting them, and I love the people and food. Simple. read more

I am so grateful to the emp!oyees of Plaza Market. I am 81 years old & of such limited mobility that I am no longer able to do my own shopping. I have asked the friend who shops for me to thank the checker & other employees she encounters for keeping the store open & stocked with supplies. They are truly heroes of this crisis. Yes, it is a small, rural store; so some prices are higher than a big box store. But that is an inconsequential concern compared to the value I am receiving by having a nearby grocery store open. Thank you, people of Plaza Market. You all deserve a medal for your commitment to the greater Ione community. read more

Visited this town for the first time and used this grocery store a few times during my visit. Was a good experience every time and I enjoyed the town. read more

The negative reviews of this market sounds as if written by someone who hasn't actually gone to the market in years, since it hasn't been owned by those owners for many years. I'm not one to post reviews as a rule, but these negative reviews were so very 'wrong' that I had to offer a more accurate picture of the market. The Ione Market is such a convenience to have here in town that not only carries a good variety of grocery items and fresh flowers, but a great wine and beer section too. I love their awesome gooey cinnamon bread too. Everything in the market appears clean. The fresh produce, while limited, is kept well maintained with no bad or over mature produce left in the bins. As limited as their produce may be, I've come to appreciate being able to buy fresh berries in town without having to go all the way up the hill when I'm in the mood for a berry smoothie.The deli has always been tidy and clean when I've ordered sandwich meats. Staff folks are friendly, helpful, and have always been courteous to me. My reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the freezer keeps the ice cream too soft, and it's often grainy, and in my world, that's just wrong (laffin). Turn down, or fix, the freezer and I'll be happy to give them 5 stars for a great small town market! As to the uncivil and clueless counter help, I can't fault the store for that given that much of their help are local youth. I've noticed there's a high turnover, so it appears once they realize someone's not working out, they are quick to make changes. I suspect that many local born teens have no idea what a classic Reuben is, and what it should not be. This is a small rural community. Yes, they've not been well trained, but as a rule I tend to be more flexible when expecting the kind of service or product knowledge that I came to expect down in the Bay Area. I think I might have given them a little coaching by stating what I specifically expected in that sandwich, especially if it was a young person. We all have to start somewhere. read more

Good music&vibe, good prices, always am able to go in, grab what I need and get out. So glad we have a grocery store in Ione!

Third times a charm? Not in this case. Never ever again! I stopped by for some emergency produce and some snacks for my sick kid. I couldn't do the prices. I just couldnt. They're so outrageous, I don't know how they get away with charging $15 for cheddar cheese, $5 for Lay's potato chips and $10 for a side of spinach dip! LMAO! I threw a few things in the cart, and decided to just get some meat and cheese from their deli. ...I don't even know how to explain this bizarre experience. The lady behind the counter ignored me for 5 minutes until the cashier came over and asked her to help me. Then she took another 3 minutes, then walkyd overy to me as slowly as possible with the dirtiest look on her face, leting me know i was NOT WELCOME. Finally, "What do you want?" Haha! Really? I should have walked away right there. I nearly blacked out due to the way she spoke, "Roast beef? Thats it, right?" (Like it better be!!!!) She was PISSED that i ordered 3 items... Gave me the wrong order, but I wasn't going to argue with her- looks like she just got released from prison (she was marked and proud). Scared to eat my roast beef. Seriously! She looked like she wanted to jump over the counter and bite a hole in my cheeck. She was vicious! If looks could kill! I will stay FAR AWAY from this place. I'm not going to over pay for the wrong order, rude service, scared the employees are going to punch me in the face for asking a question and over priced items. Jackson is just 10 minutes away. Safeway is even closer. The customer service was so bad I thought I was on Candid Camera... Still in shock. Bad bad bad business all the way around. PS- Not all people fresh out the block act like this. And, I will add, I've hired ex-cons who want to change their lives and they were wonderful. This was a bad hire! read more

They make great sandwiches but, check your sandwich before you pay. They will charge for avocado and not put it on and give you the wrong bread. The girl making my sandwich was completely distracted talking about personal crap while she messed my sandwich all up. read more
