I drive by this little locally-owned market on my vending route and one day I had to see why there were so many cars and trucks parked in front of it. Inside there's a real, old-fashioned meat counter but they'll also make you one heck of a sandwich. The sandwiches are the subject of this review. Go up to the meat counter and there are slips of paper where you can specify what you'd like on your sandwich. You can detail out the meal right down to the kind of mustard you want on it, and the cheese, bread and meat selection are all terrific. There are certain days where there are hot barbecued pork sandwiches but there's something for everyone. The ladies behind the counter are always very friendly and these are the kind of sandwiches where you have to almost unhinge your jaw to get a good bite, and your mouth will thank you for the effort. The sandwiches are really, really good. Being a market, you can select all sorts of things to go with your sandwich from chips, nuts raw potatoes, etc. etc. Okay, maybe hold off on the raw potatoes but the variety of drinks and side snacks is just what you'd expect in a market. I don't understand why there's a line at any chain sandwich shop within 10 miles of this place as the friendly, English-speaking folks behind the counter make a sandwich that two normal people could easily share and be very satisfied. Even my healthy appetite is challenged by these meals on bread, not like the breadwiches those lousy chains make. The meat here looks good and, again, it's a full little market so they have all sorts of things but the sandwiches are my favorite and make me happy that it's vending machine fillin' day. read more

I had went in there and saw a cockroach on the floor running, and they messed up on my sandwich.

Would have gave 5 stars but I have got stale bread twice. Like fall apart in your hands stale. Besides those two times the sandwiches have been amazing. read more

I love their selection of deli meat and cheese. Their sandwiches are always good! Staff are very friendly and helpful

Ordered 4pounds of carne asada the cut of the meat super thin and when I put the meat in grill nothing comes out is too bad, I called the store spoke to cassedy, he wants me to bring the meat back to the store and I don't have time. Too late to realize the meat was to thin. read more

Yes, stop here on your way to the Redwoods for some steaks and country sausage for breakfast! Had both the Ribeye and T-Bone. Nice thick cut steaks. Both delicious! Country sausage perfect for patties, smelled amazing when cooking in the morning, and tasted even better! read more

Best sandwiches and meat market in town. The meat is by far the freshest. They run out but the friendly staff will let you know when they get their next delivery. Wonderful place to shop! read more

Everything is always great. The service is great, the employees are welcoming as soon as you walk in the door. I always go get meat for carne asada and they always ask how thin I want it cut prior to cutting it all out for me. They are my first choice for meat. read more

Not only are the seasoned tri-tips top notch, the rib eye steak is amazing! I live in Napa Valley and will make this trip again! read more

Forks Ranch Market - TriTips and mor TriTips - Grocery Near Me - Ukiah, California

Great meat market. Always get our Christmas prime rib here. Ni e selection of groceries for a small store. Best thing is their deli sandwiches. So good! My favorite is the tuna on rye. Hubbys favorite is roast beef and liver wurst. Where else can you get good liver wurst I tell ya! ? Also small but decent selection of chilies and Mexican products. Oh. And you can get bait here too. It's next to the butter. Because....alphabetical?? Just come for the sandwich, and stay for the groceries. Bonus-not connected to the store but there's a corn dog stand in the parking lot. read more

Finally! After years of searching for a quality butcher in my hometown, friends of ours turned me on to the Forks Ranch Market. The meat selection is small, but the cuts top quality. The pricing is competitive and really not much more than any of the supermarkets around town. If you do happen to wander in, be warned that you should take a close look at the cuts being packaged. Last night (for example), I asked for two bone in rib eye steaks and when I got home, one of the cuts was seriously as big as an entire roast. Normally I wouldn't complain, but when trying to time cooking time this can make for some minor complications (as well as major leftovers). I'd also love to see some grass-fed options. But if you find yourself in the Ukiah/Redwood Valley area and are looking for mouth watering cuts of beef you will not have any problem finding suitable choice cuts here. read more

Forks Ranch Market - Bone in ribeyes and filet mignon - Grocery Near Me - Ukiah, California

Some of the best tri tip roasts both seasoned and un seasoned. Great cuts for both grill and oven call ahead and reserve one today and dinner will be excellent. To other reviewers First I've never seen these people practice unsafe or unhygienic food prep practices they always scrub and wash up thoroughly, gloves are always changed out. Second is if your getting what you feel is attitude then it may simply be a reflection of what your putting out. I've never had issue with anyone in that store. Hey we all have off days too. Remember this is a small town store be friendly and it will go much further. read more

Forks Ranch Market - Wonderfull seasoned tritip came out so nice and juicy We devoured it!! - Grocery Near Me - Ukiah, California

Best sandwiches In Ukiah, just ask for Desiree to make them she's the best worker there as well.

Delicious deli sandwiches, staff is always friendly, meat counter is one of the best around. Don't skip the bacon!!

I love their meats and all I just wish the girl with glasses behind the counter meat changed her attitude (she has blonde hair, black glasses) she always seems to be in a bad mood read more

The best butcher around here. Excellent service. We order meat there over the holidays. Always fresh and ready to go. Ready to either put them in the oven or (the best) BBQ them. Try the rib eye or (my favorite) T-bone steak on BBQ. read more

The Forks Market is now my go-to place for ordering my prime rib! Having placed 3 orders with them now, I can say with certainty that the quality of the meat is fantastic. The majority of the staff is friendly, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. The only time I've had an issue, was with a slightly mouth-breathing female behind the meat counter, who could barely be bothered to prepare a sandwich for me--when she mustered the energy to do it, she punctuated the interaction with basically dropping my sandwich on the counter, so she could go back to staring at the wall. Completely bizarre. Anyway, when ordering prime rib, feel free to ask them to season it, they do a really nice job. I have it on good authority that their bacon laced hamburger is to die for--that's next on my list! read more

It is a middle of the road general store/convenience store, deli. The deli is good but certainly not great. Slow with attitude, and I've yet to see anyone handling food Using any kind of plastic gloves so one can assume other unseen areas of general hygiene aren't great either. read more

Your reading a sandwich order off a piece off paper don't add extra shit now I gotta come back n get it done right trust im be picking u apart when & if. I ever come back read more

Seriously the best place to get fresh meat and awesome sandwiches! Oh and the bacon is incomparable!

I love this place so much it's so close to me and fair prices for being so convenient and a 2 minute drive. But can you guys please put new front doors! Those doors literally weigh a ton and are so hard to push open. Like I literally would donate $1,000 for a new front door. Also love the deli, fresh and great selection read more

The rib-eye steaks from the butcher are great.... but I tried the ground beef mixed with bacon and it was definitely a game changer!! Best burger I've made in a long time. I can see why it sells so fast read more

We love this market, and will continue to support them as long as we live here. Their daily sandwich specials, and custom built sandwiches are always proper. Not skimpy on the meat at all. Good sandwiches done right! We always stop in before going to breweries or heading to the lake. Their meats look amazing and people are always ordering. Can't wait to try some out next time to grill. This place is a real gem in the community. read more

First thing I noticed was the awful smell, but considering it's a butcher shop I gave that a pass. The second thing was the fact that the front door was wide open with no screen, and as a result there were flies hovering all around the uncovered and raw meat. I watched some out-of-towners ask if this was the best sandwich place in town, to which the lady replied "yes." After taking a breather outside and regaining my appetite, I decided to give the place a chance. I ordered a vegetarian sandwich, which seemed to distress the lady preparing it. "Do you want, like, all the vegetables?" she asked me. I said "no onions, pickles, or sprouts", to which she indignantly responded "we don't DO sprouts." I got the impression that myself and the group of people I came in with were immediately sized up as liberal city folk of some kind, and subsequently treated very poorly. Once I received my sandwich, I was still willing to give the "best in town" a try. Unfortunately, I could only eat the first half of my sandwich, as I kept finding little grey hairs throughout the bun. Like, at least 4 or 5 little doggish hairs, which is disgusting. This place is a mess. read more

Forks Ranch Market - Hairs in my sandwich!! - Grocery Near Me - Ukiah, California

Have loved this meat market since the Hoover's took over. Randy and Nancy and their crew are always so friendly and helpful. We order our Christmas dinner meat from here every year. We also ordered all of the meat for our daughters wedding last summer! Seasoned and trimmed tri tip and lovely lemon chicken. Can't go wrong! read more

I was passing through on the way to Blue Lakes and we stopped for lunch. The sandwiches were delicious. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They had a variety of groceries and stuff to buy that it was worth stopping. Also big plus it's ready on and off the freeway. read more

Awesome, great sandwiches! We grabbed a couple of sandwiches then headed to Parducci winery for a picnic.

Great build your own deli sandwiches plus the daily BBQ sandwiches, and very good meat counter for steaks burger and chicken! Previous reviewer mentioned the burger with bacon in it! Yes very highly recommend trying it! It makes great BBQ burgers! read more

I work just up the road from the Forks Ranch Market, so I have about 1-2 deli sandwiches a month. Great sandwiches at a reasonable price made by a quick and friendly staff. I occasionally buy steaks and tri-tip from the meat counter and have never been disappointed. We had a company lunch today and we grilled two of their seasoned tri-tips and they were awesome! There is no substitute for a small town, corner market and butcher shop like the Forks Ranch Market. read more

I love this store. I get a sandwich there a few times a week and pick up groceries while they make me lunch. They also have a great butcher shop. We got the Tri-Tip for our wedding reception there and as usual it was fantastic. Great people. Old school corner store. read more

Deli sandwiches and great people! Plus the best meat you could want and all the grocery items without needing to go to a big store. I would recommend the Piggy Joe sandwich on Friday's but anything you have them make is going to be worth it. Make sure you stop by at least once, that's all it will take to keep you coming back. read more

Nice deli, but beware when shopping for groceries. I stopped by tonight to buy hamburger buns. The clerk was just pricing them & putting them on the shelf when I walked up. As I was checking out, I noticed the buns in the bag felt hard. I asked the clerk if they had been frozen. He told me they had. While I thought that was a bit odd & that they really shouldn't be charging full price since they weren't fresh, I was in a rush to get dinner on the table so went ahead & bought them. After getting home, I saw the expiration date on the bag - May 2014! Buyers beware: groceries in this store may not be what they seem. read more

The sandwiches are delicious. Good place to stop for a quick lunch and snacks if needed. Staff is very nice as well. 5.49 for a regular sandwich great price! read more

The absolute best sandwiches in town! The nicest employees! You have to try their tri-tip sandwiches. I never have to look through the selection of steaks, they only sell the good stuff. When we have a bbq, our friends always say how good the steaks taste, but I don't do anything special; just buy from Forks! read more

This is the best butcher around! Top notch quality and EXCELLENT customer service! My dad buys my family meat from Randy monthly and I'm always very pleased with the taste and quality. Prices are very reasonable. He just picked us up some steaks for our anniversary and I have to say, they were amazing. Don't pass this place up. read more

Nice little store! Friendly service, well stocked, not crowded. They seriously make the best deli sandwiches! I crave them! They cut everything up fresh for you & they are VERY generous on the avocado, unlike most places. LOTS of choices!! read more
