first off, me and my family have been going to this market since i was little. that being said, back in the day there werent many asian markets to choose from. if youre thai, there are some items that manila market tends to carry that other larger asian markets dont. (the less popular items amongst other foreigners) and if you cant find it there, the viet/thai market down the road will most likely have it. as to the previous remarks about customer service, i'd have to say that i agree. it seems to be a family owned business, and i usually try to avoid too much interaction with the staff/cashier. they (or she) never seems to be in a good mood and i get the feeling that there is a major lack in drive to work or to run the market successfully. as for the unfair treatment based on ethnicity or race, i've witnessed it as well a few times and feel the distinction quite clearly - which is unpleasant and inexcusable being asian, we have never been asked to pay cash and she even gave us a free bottle of fish sauce when we spent over 30 dollars all in all, there are alot of better options nowadays to pick up asian groceries - manila has been bumped down to one of my last choices for asian grocery shopping. i only really go now when i need certain particular items that other places dont carry. read more

Manila Market - International Grocery Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

WEIRD people work at this store. slender Lady cashier would not give me my card back! I had to muster all composure to refrain from yelling at her as she severely lacks BOUNDARIES. I don't want to talk badly but I will just say this; I will never step foot in your store again. You have great potential; prime location, competitive pricing but your customer service is extremely OFFENSIVE! Too bad for you, I love to shop at Asian grocery but NOT @Manila. 0/10 Ladies & Gents I suggest to shop at Uwajimaya, best customer experience! Or go to 99, Hmart..there are tons of alternatives. read more

Service! Rude owner who is apparently unhappy and it truly shows. It's unfortunate bc I do come here since it's the closest market that has an assortment. Next time I'll make the e drive to Portland where they appreciate my business. Spent $65 to get a rude comment about not putting away a taro root as I overlooked it when I was in a hurry. Last time I spend money here! So much for supporting a small business. read more

I had an unpleasant experience at Manila Grocery Store recently. My EBT card was declined, and when I mentioned I thought I had enough balance, the owner's daughter rudely said, "You should always check your balance before you shop." I explained I had checked it a few days ago but couldn't remember the exact amount due to age. Her response: "My mother is 75 and doesn't have that problem. It's not that you can't remember--you don't want to." This was incredibly disrespectful and uncalled for. Sadly, this isn't the first time she's been rude to me--she once gave me attitude for asking for a box and insisted on charging 10 cents. I ask her why. She responded recycling fee. Hmmm. I hope the store takes this feedback seriously. Customers deserve respect, no matter their age or circumstances. read more

Ambiance: small Asian store with Vietnamese owners. Dont confuse the name Manila Market for a Filipino store. The original Filipino owners have sold it a loooong time ago. Service Quality: VERY POOR! You don't feel welcomed. The old lady is very rude. Her daughter also hates it when you ask her where an item is located. I come here a lot because this is the closest Asian market to home. No choice :( Food Quality: they do sell a lot of Asian food items. I always get what I'm looking for in this store. Wound I come back?! Great news! I don't have to! I just found another Asian store just a few blocks away. read more

We relocated to Oregon from Hawaii. Manila Market has almost everything we need to cook our traditional food. And the prices are reasonable. We love supporting this small business. Definitely our go to store! read more

ZERO STARS IF I COULD! Not sure if management knows whats going on but their cashiers have such attitude problems. Not even joking, even if you are kind and nice to then they will treat as if you werent. I dont understand how this behavior is tolerated. read more

The people who work here really need to not own a business if they don't know how to treat customers. If they want to say something about the customers out loud enough to where they can hear them then that's saying something. If you see me going up and down the aisles then maybe you can be like "oh can I help you find anything?" Instead of talking about the customer to your other worker. No wonder why nobody comes here. They watch you like a hawk when you're shopping. The middle age lady is who I'm talking about specifically. She is always so rude. No longer spending money here. I'm all about supporting local businesses but this one I suggest to not support. read more

They carried Betelnut, lime paste, and pepper leaves that some of our visitors requested to find. It was a modest space with few employees, but they did know where their products were and what we needed. Business as usual here. If you are looking for that Asian Pacific Islander products, this is another place to look. read more

Manila Market - a van parked in front of the store - International Grocery Near Me - Beaverton, Oregon

Terrible service. The people who owns the place are always in a terrible mood acting like it's the customer's privilege to shop there. Like we owe them a favor for shopping there or something. The place is also not very clean and they have products on the shelves that have expired. There are plenty of Asian stores who have better service don't tolerate this place's sour behavior read more

I spent over 50 bucks here and they refused to not give me a plastic bag. Literally refused . I even would pay on card for the 10 cents. To top it off , I have an infant in a car seat. I grabbed a box instead. I won't be spending any more money here. They were rude and racially profiling me read more

I walked in and ask if they have Ponzu, she immediately fire back and said no and that I should go to a Japanese store for that. I ignored her and look around the store. I needed toasted sesame seed oil and sure enough, Ponzu was right there. I told her that it was right here for her info. She snapped back at me and still insisted that it can be found at a Japanese store. The oldest female has always be rude every time I come here, the two younger female are always friendly. I shop here because it's close. read more

Rudest staff ever! I should preface this review by mentioning that I am 2nd generation Asian-American. Popped in while waiting for the always-tasty food from the In Dat Cutz food truck across the road. I was looking around the store, and simultaneously texting my wife to ask her if she needed anything. I overheard a younger cashier complaining to an older worker, that they could easily spot customers who come in but don't buy anything. I chose to ignore this comment, obviously fired in my direction. However the cashier then asked if I needed any help finding something. I let her know politely that I was just browsing, and was waiting on my wife to let me know what she needed in particular. The cashier then berated me that I should have prepared a list prior to coming into the store. I promptly left the store, and will never return. I have to say that this is the rudest store experience I have ever encountered. You will get much better service from the nice, friendly folks at G-Mart. Even the two chain stores nearby (Ranch 99 and Uwajimaya) have friendly, attentive staff. read more

Fully stocked with multiple choices of all the fundamental ingredients (noodles, spices, sauces, canned goods, non-perishables) for most asian cuisines. Produce section is small and most of the time fresh but has the essentials (bok choi, gai lan, ginger, lemon grass, thai basil, bitter melon, eggplant). The freezer section has a good selection as well (fish, meats, lumpia, shellfish). Prices are average to above average for an asian market. Customer service is amazing! For all questions about anything in the store, ask the boss lady at the register. She's very knowledgeable about everything in the store and can guide you to fulfill your Asian culinary goals! Ask many questions, she has all the patience & time in the world! There are other asian stores in the vicinity but nothing compares to her top notch customer service. I go there specifically to pick her brain on any Asian recipe. read more

place is old, very cold, and the owner/ cashier never smiles, not friendly, and now charging $.10 for a box they got for free where their goods came in! though its just 10c thats still a scam! read more

This market ONLY hires unprofessional people! I've shopped here sooo many times. It never fails me that I will ALWAYS run into rude customers service from the employees. I will call corporate and complain about their EXPIRED FOODS & EMPLOYEES. Save yourself sometime & shopping elsewhere. read more

The customer in front of me dropped a bottle and the cashier was so rude to him. She exclaimed," Next time buy a bag! Now I lose money AND have to clean up your mess!" I was SHOCKED. SO RUDE! I will never come back. read more

No stars! I'm not sure if cashier was having a bad day but definitely shouldn't be putting that on to customers. My family should be able to shop and be comfortable in our local grocery store without any issue especially coming from an employee here. Either management needs to step it up or they're hiring process, don't just hire anybody! read more

When I went there the ONLY worker is a cashier. She NEVER smile and she doesn't look happy When I ask where to find what I was looking for ? She said in the glass refrigerator!. Ugh!. She need to be helpful and happy to make her customers coming back Otherwise it will be bankruptcy soon. Salamat read more

Sunday evening and wasn't aude what to expect as walking in, the first thing I noticed was bakery good to the side and the set up. Small store with items in boxes and things barely marked with aisle signs and what is placed where. Even with this unorganized look, the place is small enough where things are not too hard to find as you just have to do a little walk around. The prices seem very reasonable as my mom and I needed banh xeo flour mix and bean sprouts, the total for these two items was about $2.50! A lot cheaper than some of the asian markets near Beaverton and Tigard. The bean sprouts appeared very clean and packed well and the flour mix was easy to find amongst the aisles. I also saw quite the variety of ramen and noodles from various countries that I haven't been able to spot (or maybe I just didn't look hard enough at the other Asian marts). The place could be kept a little tidier and nicer but all in all, you get what you need and are on your way. The parking spots are ample but the only downside is that it is all one way road access so it can be a hassle. read more

See all

agree with all the rest. They have rude and unfriendly cashiers. If you ask them a question they snap back at you and give you a glare as if you have offended them. read more

Dirty. Smelly. Poor Quality. Miniscule selection. Rude. Obnoxious. Abrasive ... need I go on?

love this store a lot of stuff that i've never tried they have a good variety of meats and seafood

Worst place to go. The cashier and the working people, are not kind. And they treated people like animals when we go their places and really unclean. I went today first time to buy some stuffs and they neglect customers in there place and they even didn't respond people requests Worst place to go to buy groceries. read more

Gosh I thought I was the only one feeling this way. I use to go here because I wanted to support small Asian businesses but the cashier in the front is just beyond rude! She never smiles. Always complaining about something to her mom and dad that's there as well. When I'm in the back ringing the bell for meat it takes her forever to come as if there was any other customers. I've given this place one to many chances. I would never go back! Shop at viet and Thai market! They are beyond sweet and helpful. The veggies are always so fresh. read more

i agree with most of the reviews. their customer service is horrible, they're very rude and we had overheard them talk bad about us during our time here. wouldn't even give us the price, just stared at us and flipped the screen, mind you my mother doesn't speak english. their stuff always be expired too. if you're looking for a place with fresh food & produce, and good customer service with friendly cashiers, this is NOT the place to go. read more

I went in on a Saturday afternoon. Prime shopping time right? It was almost deserted and after a few minutes I could see why. They are the most unpleasant family owned business I have had the displeasure of visiting. The mother and daughter man the checkout lanes and the daughter in particular is rude and nasty. We were walking around looking at all the products and she said to her mom, loudly enough for us to hear " Look at these people walking around with their hands in their pockets. They're not going to buy anything." She gives off the air of someone who was forced to work in the family business and takes out her resentment on paying and potential customers. Offended we started to leave and she practically shouted " See, they're not buying!" When we confronted her, we said we were thinking of buying, but were leaving because of her attitude, she blustered something about not talking about us, but then just resorting to waving us off and yelling the equivalent of "Nah, nah, nah, I can't hear you." The Beaverton area has a plethora of Asian markets, better stocked, better situated and with better customer service. In fact even if those other stores did business with utter indifference, that would still be better than the deliberate and aggressive rudeness with which they treat actual customers. Perhaps one day she will get her wish and go out of business, so she can spend the rest of her days yelling at passers by from under her bridge. read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside but the moment I walked in, I knew this is the type of store I was looking for. Boxes everywhere and all the weird items you don't normally see. This place is legit, it reminds me of the small market from my hometown. I'm going to stop in when I have more time so I can really check out every aisle and see what all else they carry. I was also surprised to see they carried items I used to find at the Dutch store that closed down. This made me very happy. I didn't really interact with employees but I didn't seem to have any issues with them at the register either. Good experience for me. read more

I was at the store today looking for something specific, when I asked the lady owner, she sternly told me aisle #6, when I can't find what I was looking for, I came back and asked for help and that lady walked out of the cashiers both repeating "aisle#6, aisle #6, aisle #6" over and over and when she was below the number 6 sign, she looked at me and said "this is number 6!" as if I can't read numbers, and "there's what you're looking for" to the point that she was screaming at me. Instead of walking out and going to the much bigger Asian stores, I swallowed my pride and paid for what was on my basket but I will never set foot on this store again. The experience was rudeness overload! read more

Selection is very limited. The ladies that work the registers are rude. Never a smile or a thank you. When asked a question, all you will get is a no. read more

The middle-aged woman cashier there is very rude, the few times I shopped there she was always acting like she's doing me a favor. No smile and no "thank you". That aside, their prices are so much higher than everyone else. I will never shop there again. read more

The worse customer service, second only to the people at India Supermarket. Very rude and don't give a crap about helping. Stuff are old as well. I bought a case of mama noodle and the noodle smell oilly and old. That is saying alot when the dry noodles are too old. read more

Cluttered, no prices on the products. The store is dirty and it stinks. Seems like this store is for Asians only. The owners may as well put a sign out front saying so. The staff is rude to non-Asians. And if you're black, then watch out. Some brown-skinned people I know told me about their horror stories shopping at this place. Don't bother shopping here. read more

Staffs are arrogant, unhappy people. The owner is not a Filipino or from Manila. So to the Filipinos who might think that they are going to a Filipino store, keep this in mind- they are not Filipinos read more

If I could give 0.5, I would. Very rude and unpleasant clerks/owners( re-in forcing bad stereotypes)As if they are doing YOU a favor. They won't be getting any $ from me. That's for sure. The place is also dirty. Lack of basic customer service. Don't go there. I few minutes on Tv Highway there's a bigger Asian market, still with clerks who have no customer service training and are rude but, there's always the ladies at that fish counter who are nice. read more

HORRIBLE customer service. They are so unpleasant and rude. No hi, no thank you... EVER. The family who owns this business has always been like this since I was a kid. I try not to shop here unless I absolutely have to. I much rather go to Viet Thai Market down the street, they are nice and friendly people. There's another Vietnamese market on 185th and Walker, they are nice and friendly there too. My recent visit to Manila Market, the daughter was on her cell phone and didn't bother to put it down right away to come check me out. Like I was bothering her! I still try to be nice and say thank you.. no acknowledgment from her. So terrible! read more

I recently went to this market to buy some packs of betel leaves and I decided to use Apple Pay since I'm 100% sure the machine does accept Apple Pay (tap to pay); however, the cashier was idiot and she said that it was not accept Apple pay. I WILL NEVER GO TO THIS MARKET ANYMORE read more
