I shop at the Watsonville store often but usually after noon when other checking staff come in…read more There is a mornings only checker that is horrendous and a total jerk. Rude as they get. Unfortunately he was the only checker available today. I was tempted to leave my full basket and walk out. Too busy gossiping and talking smack about another customer to pay attention to the customer in front of him trying to pay and leave. Why don't Nob Hill retire this fool? He's obviouly at a point where he despises the shopping public and his job. You need to write the AH up or get rid of him. Your other staff are top shelf.

I ate pretty quickly and then felt some hair during my 3rd to last piece. On the last 2 pieces there was a piece of hair stuck on both of them. I was saddened and couldn't finish it. It's not a restaurant so I wasn't sure if they'd care but I thought I'd tell a cashier in case they wanted to go check the other sushi. They actually refunded me for the whole sushi. Appreciate the service but guess that's what I get for trying grocery store sushi

You have to check the produce very very carefully and never buy anything in the bag…read more I almost never shop here because the produce gets mishandled. I know some of the people that work there they're super people. The produce is just below average.

A couple of things to unpack at this store. First, in the past I have not been greeted or…read moreacknowledged for my visit at the check out. Secondly, the employees in the past, were going through the motions of their daily work. Not truly engaging with their customers throughout the store. Today, that all changed. I walked up to the front entrance as the manager was walking out and greeted me with a smile and a hello as he was showing a team member there was a spill in the grocery cart area that needed to be cleaned up. The manager asked for the employees' idea of the best way to handle the clean up. The employee immediately became engaged and quickly responded to getting the task done. The manger walked away and left the employee to deal with the task. Throughout the store employees were smiling and saying hello. At check out there was a line of four people. The manager immediately jumped on a register and took on customers with a pleasant greeting, asked if I found everything I was looking for. The bagger made mention of the great Bromolaid plant I had chosen. As I was leaving both the manager and the bagger said to have a great day. The contrast of today's visit versus any other I have had in the past was like night and day. The leadership qualities this manager displayed, the response of the employees, tells me how well he is being an authentic leader. It was truly refreshing to see.

I had such a wonderful experience at the deli thanks to Rhys! From the moment I walked up to the…read morecounter, he was friendly, personable, and truly focused on providing exceptional customer service. He took the time to answer my questions, offered helpful suggestions, and made sure our order was exactly right. What impressed me most was that Rhys was working the deli department by himself, yet he remained patient, attentive, and genuinely kind throughout the entire interaction. Despite being busy, he never made me feel rushed and treated every customer with professionalism and care. It's clear that Rhys takes great pride in his work and understands the importance of creating a positive customer experience. Employees like him are the reason customers return and recommend a business to others. Thank you, Rhys, for making our visit such a pleasant one!

This is a nice local market with an awesome deli and a few tables and chairs outside. They are…read moresimilar to Whole Foods, but a little smaller and more heavily leaning in the natural/organic direction. As you enter, you'll see the produce section, which is neat and very fresh looking. I bought a pack of avocados and each one was perfect. There are the usual market items (like meats, seafoods, chips, etc.), but few (if any) national brands. They also have some dinnerware, like bowls and such, made by local artisans. They looked really nice, and I was tempted to buy some but resisted. The star, though, is their deli. There's a good selection of premade sandwiches, salads, sushi, baked goods, and some hot food items. You can also have sandwiches made to order. They have a few "signature" sandwiches, but you can also build your own. My only small complaint is they only have vegan mayo. It's not bad, and not very noticeable, but it lacks the creaminess and flavor of real mayo. What we ordered: + Roaring Camp signature sandwich - this is turkey with cranberry relish on your choice of bread (I chose sliced sourdough). It was excellent. + Custom sandwich on sourdough roll - the roll was fantastic; slightly soft and chewy. Sandwich was excellent. + Potato salad - this was very dill heavy and a little runny (vegan mayo?), but after a few bites, it really grew on us. By the end, we were loving it. Everyone we encountered was very chill and friendly.

Outstanding local market in tiny Felton…read more This has a great crunchy vibe. Natural and healthy foods and loads of craft beer ( if you are feeling crafty). Organic all the way for many products here. I got a sandwich for a picnic. What a wonderful experience. The service was friendly and efficient. They don't add a lot of salt and pepper on the same, so feel free to pick up some packets if you are feeling particularly salty.

I guess because it's tucked away in the back of the shopping center and not in line of site. The folks in the shop were really nice and they seemed to know a lot of the locals.
