I can't comment on the quality of meat from here but from what I've heard, it's hit and miss. There is no bakery and all the bakery items they do carry are pre packaged and shipped in. The frozen food section also lacks variety. Customer service, from my experience, is hit and miss. They have/had a few employees who are nice and will actually talk to you while the others can barely get out a, "how are you", at the check stand. Often, there is only one cashier and a long line. The cashier will ask for help over the PA only for it to go ignored or unheard. The one and only consistent thing about this store is the smell. It hits you like a ton of bricks the second you walk in. Not sure if it's from whatever they use to clean or if it's a lack of cleaning causing it but regardless, it stinks. They really need to figure that one out. Bottom line is they benefit from being the only game in town (aside from Family Dollar). Not a problem for me because I only work here. For locals, however, they don't have a choice on where to go unless they feel like driving an hour in either direction. It's sad that companies take advantage of that instead of treating a community with the respect it should be given.

Needed to pick up some wine. They had a nice selection at a reasonable price. Friendly people!read more

What a charming & resourceful spot for locals! I just…read morestepped in here for the first time after spending yeeeeears visiting Plumas county & I was able to put together a stunning charcuterie board for a much lower price than the local grocery store. I'm so impressed that they had so many options for groceries, varieties of cheeses & great customer service. Aside from local meat and produce, they also have a great selection of vegan and gluten free options. Will be doing my shopping here from now on when in Portola.

Unfortunately, we just couldn't find anything that tickled our fancy and opted to go find a restaurant instead. We fully understand that a smaller footprint supermarket cannot carry everything a larger store can. The customer base can't support it and it simply wouldn't be profitable. However, there is no excuse that staffing in the deli department can't spend two minutes a hour to stir the prepared salads. Nothing is less appealing than when the outer layer forms a "crust" giving the impression that the food is not "fresh". You can easily see a difference in texture and color between the portion of the salad that has not been touched compared to the portion of the salad that has been served from. Pass.

STAY AWAY! Thieves, Liars, and Blatant Retail Fraud! I will absolutely never step foot in this…read moreSafeway location again. This entire store is run by thieves, liars, and completely incompetent staff who engage in predatory retail practices. On Friday, I placed an online grocery order, but an unexpected medical emergency forced me to rush a neighbor to a hospital in Reno. I repeatedly attempted to call the store to explain the situation, but the staff completely ignored the ringing phones. Instead of holding the items or canceling, your employees flagrantly falsified store records at 4:00 PM by marking my order as "Picked Up." They actively stole money from my bank account, pushing an unauthorized charge to my debit card for goods that never left the building.The utter lack of customer support continued the following morning when I called again, only to be left rotting on hold for 30 agonizing minutes without a single person answering. It ultimately forced me to waste an hour of my weekend navigating an online corporate chat just to claw back the refund that this local staff essentially embezzled.To make matters worse, after finally getting my money back, I made the mistake of reordering my groceries. The staff completely butchered the second order, proving their incompetence is entirely intentional. They systematically withheld items from multiple "Buy One, Get One" promotions, deliberately short-changing me by failing to include the free items I was contractually owed. This isn't a string of simple mistakes; it is a corrupt operation with zero customer support. Save your sanity, your time, and your hard-earned money. Avoid this garbage dump at all costs!

I was going to stop for lunch down the road in Downieville, but the town was absolutely swamped…read morewith people, because of a big bike race this weekend. I'm glad it actually worked out that way, because this place was absolutely amazing! Such a cool little country store. Groceries, drinks, beer, snacks, some hardware, toiletries a small wine/liquor section in the back, and a great little deli. There were cute signs all over the walls. I decided to try a cup of "luau Larry's. not so famous homemade chili." The very nice and friendly lady working in the store said that "luau Larry" is her husband. Let me tell you, he makes an amazingly fine chili.... For a 'cup" of chili, it was huge! I enjoyed it very much. I found out that the chili is made with ribeye! It was delicious. It was Hearty, it had a deep rich flavor, and it had a nice little "kick" to it. Well, within what I like for spicy. The lady in the store did tell me that Larry "tweaks" the recipe a little bit from time to time, but she says it's always a great chili. I do not doubt that at all. She asked me if I wanted cheese and onions, and I said, of course! I love fresh purple onions. They are both sweeter and milder than the white or yellow onions. They really added to the chili, as did the cheese. The chili and a soda ran me about 11 bucks. A little bit high, sure, but this is a tiny town up in the middle of the mountains. I get it. Besides, for the quantity and quality, it was worth every single penny. I would come back just for another cup of that chili. Thanks.

This market has a little bit of everything for local shoppers and travelers through Cedarville. They have refrigerated and frozen cases, produce, bread, and dairy.

The staff knew the inventory and were all nice. It is always worth exploring for items you need and items you didn't know you needed! It is a welcome alternative to sterile chain groceries who control every inch of shelf space stock from their central computers.
