Petaluma Market Catering made catering our Petaluma-based event incredibly easy. The staff were helpful, clear, responsive, and patient with every question I had. All of the catering platters were delicious, generously portioned, and delivered right on time. I especially appreciated that the fruit was perfectly ripe, which is not always the case with catered trays. I would absolutely use them again for a future event. read more

Love this market! It's my favorite place to shop in Petaluma. I also recently tried their catering trays which were great. Easy to order, they worked with me to ensure it was exactly what I was wanting, and they delivered! read more

One of my favorite things to do on vacation is walk through local grocery stores. Petaluma Market is a really nice one, with a long history in town. The afternoon I went in I was getting pretty tired so I decided to get a bunch of to-go beers and ready made food to relax at the hotel. The store has a cozy character that comes with being loved. They had a lot of ready made food items, plus all the traditional stuff of other grocery stores. Prices were reasonable, especially with how healthy a lot of the selections are. It was a popular spot with many people doing their afternoon shopping. The beer selection was amazing for me, lots of Russian River and other regional staples. The staff was also friendly, both the beer stocker and cashiers. I highly recommend shopping here if you're in Petaluma. read more

This place is expensive, but it's worth the money. My husband wasn't feeling well, and we were staying home all weekend, so we decided to go to Petaluma to get some pastries and some pre-cooked deliciousness. We always know that the Petaluma market delivers, and we get the chicken tacos outside the taco shell. They have melted cheddar cheese, and inside is ample chicken. It's marinated with something I can't tell you what, but it is delicious. Like I said, it is quite a solid bit of chicken. If I want something quick and delicious, I grab these. Stick them in the air fryer for a few minutes, ready to rock. Delicious. We also got the chicken quesadillas again for a couple of minutes in the air fryer. You're ready to go. It was a hot weekend, so I was not interested in turning on the oven. They make these almond Joe cookies delicious, moist, but crispy on the outside, crispy almonds inside, delicious every time I come here, I get at least one bag of those. In fact, they use my picture on the cover of this market. They make a bomb quiche, Lorraine, another perfect choice. You can heat it in the microwave, and again, you can use the air fryer, which works like a dream, making things crispy on the outside, bringing them back to life, and making them delicious. Everybody here is always helpful. Nice big smiles. It has an old-school feel, and there is definitely a lot of wood. It's a little cramped, but it has a ton of great stuff here, and if you want something that's premade and delicious, which is very difficult to find, this is your answer. It delivers every time I've been coming here for a years. You can see all the pictures. Lots of good choices here. Cheers, my friends SYOY. September 1, 2025 read more

I visited Petaluma Market in Petaluma, CA on Saturday, 3/1/25, around 1:30 PM. What stood out to me about this market was the offering of hot & cold food. There were a plethora of options such as prime rib, chicken marsala, ravioli, macaroni & cheese, ribs with barbecue sauce, soups, salad bar, etc. I decided to get a box of salad, prepared with chicken breasts, eggs, shredded cheese, tomatoes, black olives, and cucumbers. I paired it with ranch dressing. The ingredients were delicious and super fresh. I truly enjoyed the salad. Along with the salad, I also opted for soup. I got a bowl of Chili and added shredded cheese on top. It was warm, hearty, cozy, and flavorful. Upon my observations, the price points of most products are on the higher end compared to other stores. Even for my salad and soup, the total came out to nearly $30. That was a bit expensive for just two products. Overall, Petaluma Market is a clean, well-organized store with friendly staff members and tasty hot/cold food. It may be good to shop here for certain things, but not primarily for a huge grocery trip, as things can add up very quickly. read more

As of Nov 2025, the salsa is now 75 cents per container for ~1.5 oz, valuing the salsa at $16/quart. Total rip off. They used to give the salsa away for free. We won't be getting breakfast burritos here anymore. read more

Great store overall. This review is specifically towards the breakfast burritos. They used to be so good just 5 years ago. The chorizo burrito I got had zero flavor and the salsa did not add any assistance at all. read more

We had our large family Christmas party catered by Petaluma Market on 12/20/25. The process was easy, they were very helpful and accommodating to guide us about the final menu and how much we needed to insure we would have plenty of food. Our party was being held in RP so we picked up the food ourselves, they helped load it taking care it would arrive safely...and it did. We choose the Tri-Tip that comes with containers of Demi Glaze & BBQ sauce Balsamic chicken Sausage variety (that they sliced into rings) Pesto Cheese Tortellini Beef Ravioli with red sauce Roasted whole red potatoes Garden salad Caesar salad. Everyone raved about the food. We highly recommend using (or at least getting a quote from) Petaluma Market to cater your next party. I wish I would have remembered to take photos of the food Audrey & Steve Whitbeck. read more

Store is great, food is great - They just don't care if you're an EBT customer. We must be considered "poor" or something, because when my EBT card comes up declined answerni got was very uncaring and "yeah, EBT cards haven't worked since Wednesday" great, is anyone doing anything about it? I feel like a revenue stream for your store not functioning properly should be a big priority instead of telling your staff to inform the customer that "it hasn't worked in a while". Call me crazy. read more

Meat department is so fresh and quality meats. They have an extensive selection of bread. The hot foods, is nice to grab something for a gourmet meal for the moment of a hungry stomach. Pliny the elder at the beer section, was a wonderful find. Local foods one can spot here! Lovely! read more

When I walk into a grocery store and am immediately greeted by the lady cutting the cheese, I know it's going to be a good experience! Stopped in while visiting Petaluma to see what the locals buy to make their meals and ended up walking out with a variety of cheeses, wine, fresh fruit, and veggies. This place is great, a testament to a small town grocery store with lots of specialty items and a lot to look at and think. "How can I use that in a new recipe?" Stop in and get you something to cook up at home.. read more

Hot food selection and quality is top notch. They have different theme cuisines for each day of the week.

I love this market. No lines, polite and quick working cashiers, excellent salad bar, fresh organic produce, deli, gourmet deserts, excellent wine selection, it's the perfect store for this town and thank GOD that it's here and that all who work here appreciate their customers in this community. Thank you to all the hard working polite and helpful folks at the Petaluma Market! Muah! Muah! Muah! read more

To make matters worse They don't even respond. We spend hundres of dollars there every month. They are expensive. apparently uncaring also.

What a treasure! You can depend on Petaluma Market for - Great readymade food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some of my favorites are breakfast burrito, cucumber garbanzo bean salad, sushi, soup, taco salad and had a great vegetarian Tamale casserole recently! - Wonderfully edited packaged food options. They don't have dozens of every item they have a few that are great! Whoever chooses the products great job! - Expertise from cheesemonger, butchers, sushi chefs and florist! - Party ready! You can find gifts and party food easily, cakes, flowers, alcohol - walk in and look like a star when you show up at an event! Well worth the higher prices! read more

Had to tell everyone about the excellent lasagna and penne we had catered at Petaluma Market for a big birthday bash on Friday, June 13 for 60 people! A number of people asked where we got the food catered and EVERYONE was shocked when we told them it was from Petaluma Market and not from one of our better Italian restaurants. In fact, I was sitting with a couple, and the wife said she NEVER has seconds, and she went for a refill of the lasagna for her husband and herself! She owns a major business on the eastside and said she will keep Petaluma Market in mind for catering that she may need later on in the year. Especially since it isn't as expensive as it would be from a fine dining place. High Fives to Phillip Supnet, Petaluma Market's Executive Chef! read more

Poor customer service, the young cashier was standing there laughing and snickering at my mom because she was taking her time writing out a check and my mom has Parkinson's disease so her hand shakes and she has no control over it. The cashier behind my mom turned around and looked at my mom and snickered thinking it made her look cool. My mom left that store feeling so disrespected and degraded. Mind you my mom has been going there for over 20 years but not anymore. read more

Great local speciality grocery store located in Downtown Petaluma. They also have a variety of slices of JM Rosen Cheesecakes available for sale, which I highly recommend! I stopped by on a Monday afternoon, and they had a few different cheesecake slices available: blueberry, mango, fudge, fantasy chocolate (with a layer of chocolate cake), and amaretto. They also sell whole cheesecakes for $29.99. The cheesecakes are located in one of the refrigerated sections next to their deli. I tried the Blueberry Cheesecake ($4.99, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=9I1ivtRmjhOj0C4x31IoiQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg), which was DELICIOUS. The blueberry flavor was very prominent, and the cheesecake was the perfect thickness but still had a smooth consistency. It also wasn't too sweet, and the crust was great- a must try for any cheesecake/dessert lover! In addition to the cheesecake, they also have a variety of baked goods available from both local bakeries and also baked in house. Prices were very reasonable for a speciality grocery store, and their staff was very friendly. I will definitely be back for more cheesecake from JM Rosen! Parking was easy to find in their lot, since plenty of spots were available. read more

Good Food, Burritos to sandos to anything you might need. Friendly staff I have come here for over 25 years. Great Steak selection and meat department. read more

Best fried shrimp I can remember! Deep fried crispy panko bread crumb batter. 9/10 (slightly overcooked). Perfect saltiness. Yum. $6.99 for a full box with some French fries that were added in. read more

From the minute you walk up to this store until you leave you are in another world. The store is clean, filled with items you can't get anywhere else, fresh produce, a huge selection of cheese, amazing meat and a deli that just takes your breath away. If you like chorizo make sure to try theirs, they make it themselves and it is the best I have had. Did I mention that the staff is amazing? They go, routinely, above and beyond to help you, and always with a smile. Yes, this store is expensive, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. While this may not be the place to do your everyday shopping, it is absolutely the place to go when you are having a special event, when you need the absolute best to serve your guests, when you need the perfect loaf of bread (row after row of bread you won't find anywhere else), when you are wanting to treat yourself to the very best that a store should offer. I have been going to this store for over 15 years (as we would be going to Bodega Bay to visit my Dad who just passed in December), and as with a fine wine, they have gotten better with age. Whenever we are in the area we make sure to stop by this store to pick up some of their meat, cheese, desserts and produce. If you are ever in the area make the time to visit this store, especially the meat and deli department. Tell them Leo sent you (the meat department will know exactly what you mean.) read more

What an incredible mess. The parking lot, the inside. It is reasonably very crowded, but I didn't enjoy my experience because of that fact. The filet mignons we got were very nice and we got a couple obscure beers, as well. Find out when it's not crowded and go there during that time. read more

I got a premade sandwich for lunch today it was turkey with cranberry and cream cheese. Okay and it was Turkey because I can see it not so much taste it and I knew it was cranberry and cream cheese because it was written on the label read more

A 5 star market indeed. The flowers right at the entrance are always a temptation. But you'll always find what you're looking for here- if not something better. read more

Don't buy your fish from here. We stopped on our way to pick up salmon fillet. It was expensive and of horrible quality

This place deserves the 5 stars despite many claims to their steep prices. You get what you pay for they always deliver not only in quality groceries, but also in great customer service. A special shout-out to Laura, one of the friendliest and sweetest cashiers you will ever meet. We ordered a thanksgiving meal and I was just impressed on how well everything tasted and how perfect the portions were for 6-8 people. Everything came neatly packed and with heating instructions. This was a tremendous help for my wife and I since we don't have a lot of time and we were able to focus on appetizers. What can I say about their hot food bar? I'm all about the breakfast items, especially their burritos and sausage muffins (now more affordable and extremely better tasting than a McMuffin). Love the bacon. Sometimes I go in there just for a few strips. Salad bar is also phenomenal. Very clean and fresh! To see that there's a grocer that puts this amount of care and commitment to providing quality products for the community is always deserving of recognition. Thank you, Petaluma Market! read more

Taking a short trip to Bodega and Halfmoon Bay. Stopped in after looking at Yelp. This is a jewel. I was looking for some cheese, mortadella, presciotto, , and other munches. Great selections of all I wanted. This market is packed with all kinds of warm dishes, salads, antipasto bar. This market will be in the regular when I head to Bodega in the future. read more

This is one of my favorite markets. Great cheese selection, reasonably priced seafood and meat, great breakfast (best breakfast sausages and the best bacon ever). It's my secret. I get a salad bar box and pile the bacon in there! It's cheaper buying bacon this way. read more

Great little store, has an impressive deli. Wine selection and fresh produce from local farms and your standard fav's.

I evaluate markets primarily on produce quality and selection and Petaluma Market never disappoints. Shelves are always stocked and employees super helpful. read more

This is your old go to home market- butcher/ deli fresh fruits vegetables but the best kept secret is it's got the best breakfast in town daily. read more

The service is very good. Everything is overpriced. You can save a lot by going somewhere else. Their Hot Food bars are $9.99 a pound. Often the food bars are what remains after they have been picked over. I don't want a pasta Alfredo of mostly white sauce. I think people go here for convenience. They don't go to save money. A plus is their butcher. When i want a good steak or chicken this is where I go. read more

Really love this market in some areas and not so much in others. Cheese section and butcher/deli are really great. The "cheese lady" is knowledgeable and so helping when selecting premium cheeses. Bravo. The staff is really nice and helpful and overall the experience is a good one. Whomever manages the produce section should understand that tomatoes should never be refrigerated if you care about the flavor. Anyone in the food industry knows this is a rule however, there are those that overlook it for cost savings as tomatoes degrade more rapidly without refrigeration. Tomatoes are expensive these days and to pay $$$ for tasteless refrigerated maters is not something I will do. I may have to drive to Oliver's or Wholefoods where at least they are considering what's best for the customer rather than their bottom line... read more

Very convenient place to get some food fast, and believe me the food is good! The prices are a little high but I don't mind supporting them

I really like this market - the manager - Tina Shaw is very smart and very nice. The deli and produce and deserts are very good. They lost one star because the bbq in front has not reopened - I hope it does. read more

Love this store so much! Once a month I treat myself to the hot prepared dishes and the salad/vegetable bar. This is my only eat out meal and I find it so special! Food prices are definitely ok if you watch the discounted products and just know how to shop. Petaluma Market is our Westside 15 minute neighborhood store and we are so lucky we have this treasure! read more

It's overpriced - but my main complaint is the sourness and hostility the management puts on display. So unhappy and unhelpful. Is major bad energy just inherent here? It just feels like bad will here. I'm sure it must trickle down to the employees as well. So much turnover - always new faces that seem stressed they can barely communicate. We don't shop much here as it's only gotten worse over the years. All, be sure to check expiry dates on products as I've put way too much trust into purchasing items only to find out that pint of vanilla yogurt expires on tomorrow. Also, we are in a pandemic- please retire the open salad bar. Gross. ‍ Lesson learned. read more

I've lived most of my life in Petaluma on the east side and never went to Petaluma Market and now I go all the time. This store is amazing. They have probably the best sandwiches you can order in town. I ordered another sandwich tonight from a lady name Nikki and she was a sweetheart and I order my sandwich last time and she remembered mostly what I order last time. Everybody that works there is just amazing. They're always very super helpful. Five stars for ,Petaluma market!!! read more
