I had such good service from Alex today. He was friendly and polite . He showed initiative because he was overseeing the self check out which wasn't busy so he came and offered to help me with self checkout. I appreciate that and he helped make my errand much quicker! Thanks Alex!! read more

Kalani always offers excellent customer support and service - Thank you for the continued support and support

I give 5 stars to the folks at the meat and seafood department. They are friendly and helpful. I give 1 star to Sprouts corporate nitwits (probably some nepotism involved) who decided long ago to have tiny price labels for items stocked in the floor freezers. One can't tell what items are at what price. Therefore I don't even bother looking in those freezers. read more

A great local grocery store that has organic foods as well as vitamins, and ready made items to fix at home , as well as a deli and meat department. Very helpful staff and very fresh produce. read more

Sprouts Farmers Market - My sad deli sandwich. I didn't order a panini but that's what I got this time. - Grocery Near Me - Encinitas, California

Customer service was great. The grocery guy was really helpful and nice. I would recommend sprouts. Thank you ​​​

I love sprouts I come here everyday for food!! Amazing workers it's a great environment!

I am a regular and the selection and customer service is great! very pleasant experience.

They have great customer service and plenty of options. Overall a good and clean store.

I want to love this place because I live within walking distance. I'm never in a rush, so I try to maintain a friendly, relaxed attitude when shopping and checking out. The good: The supplements section is nice and employees in that section are always helpful. The Thanksgiving turkey dinner from the deli was fabulous. I like their vegan chocolate chip cookies. Their bulk coffee selection is nice. There is a good selection of organic products. The not-so-good: Often, there is a weird, uncomfortable vibe with the cashiers. There are a couple of good ones who greet me, look me in the eye, help bag, seem to have a sense of humor, and don't rush me through the checkout process. Others seem rushed, unhappy and preoccupied. Items can be out of stock. Much of the produce is in plastic packaging. Prices can be missing or different from what I'm charged (sometimes I'm actually charged less than expected). This week, there was an on-sale pantry item that was not on the shelf, but the Sprouts app indicated it was in stock. I thought perhaps there was more in a back room. When I asked the (nice) employee by the self-checkout how to find out when it would be available, she directed me to ask a manager in a blue shirt for a rain check. The manager directed me to look in another department, but the item was not there either. I got back in line to talk with the manager and they started to write up a rain check, then seemed to ask me if they should be doing that since the sale was going for a couple of weeks longer. I said I just wanted to know when the item would be back in stock, and the manager said "Hopefully sooner than later." I was speechless. Another reviewer said the employees are not treated very well. I suspect some of the employees are unhappy working there, and perhaps not trained very well. If this store had 75% of the Trader Joe's customer service vibe, I'd be thrilled. read more

Shannon was SO helpful! When no wine bags were available, she creatively wrapped a bottle of wine with thick paper toweling for the person ahead of me and was completely customer centered. Nathaniel was happy to to go get another bottle of Chameleon Organic Coffee I couldn't reach on a high back shelf. Great experience at my favorite Sprouts! read more

Hot Honey Salmon Sushi Roll Special was Delicious! Stopped by to return some unused items & saw the sign. Yum!

Friendly late night customer service in the self check-out. Fresh produce and clean aisles makes for happy customer.

Always good customer service fresh produce and easy to find things favorite store in neighborhood

Great ppl! I like buying groceries here. Great stuff! The staff is all really nice. Self check out is really efficient.

I must say I like it better than Whole Foods and I wish they're were more stores available. I like the selection and I scan most of the stuff with yuka and it was raining very well. I bought a salad and loved it and I bought my granddaughter was 14 months old some healthy snacks. read more

The deli options at this location are great, we stop in most weekends to pick up sandwiches and/or sushi for lunch - both are always fresh and there are gluten free options for both! Staff is friendly although it sometimes takes a while before they notice people are waiting at the deli counter. Beyond the deli, the groceries are generally pricey but I do appreciate the great variety of gluten free options. read more

Great place and very clean. Very helpful workers and was able to find everything that we needed.

Great food, great service, wonderful sandwichs love sushi Wednesdays, front end team is always great and quick

Just had the best sandwich from Sprouts!! And you can't beat their sandwich prices. Had great service from the deli counter.

Whoever prepares the 'ready to go' meals does an absolute fabulous job at this precise location; along with the sushi chef. Cashiers are kind and helpful. read more

I can rarely rely on the fact that I can go to this store and complete even a short grocery list. However they account for stock and whoever is ordering stock, flat out sucks. Inevitably they are out of more than one item on my list. The Carlsbad store isn't any better. It usually takes two stores to complete a list. I'll pay extra to go to Lazy Acres so I can complete a shopping list in one trip. read more

Marcus was very helpful at the butcher. Saw me needing assistance, got me what I needed. Good energy. Very friendly. Plus I like this grocery store because they have a good organic selection and I come for the Carbonaut bread im addicted to. read more

Love this store, great selection, great staff, and even the shoppers are friendly! The only things needing room for improvement are: (1) Poor selection of organic foods. (2) Sprouts is super-duper expensive, some would say gouging. For that reason I do my main shopping at TJ's down the street, then come to Sprouts maybe once/week for one or two health care items such as organic toothpaste, deodorant, or soap. Other than the above room-for-improvement stuff, I love this store! This morning I picked up organic raw pumpkin seeds. (btw among the healthiest foods for ya so check it out!) This section is for Sprouts owners: You can see most shoppers leaving the store with a single item in their hand or a very small bag of groceries. Guessing that's because high prices prevents shoppers from doing their main shopping there. Sprouts owners, if you're listening... TJ's right down the street has "normal" pricing and they're always crazy busy--please consider bringing Sprout's prices down to planet earth, then you too may be packed with shoppers just like TJs : - ) Cool Store Name . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Central Location . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Prices . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 star Produce Selection . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Produce Selection - Organic . . . . 3 stars Deli Selection . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Deli Selection - Organic . . . . . . . . 1 star Grocery Selection . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Grocery Selection - Organic . . . . . 2 stars Health Care Products Selection . . 5 stars Hours (7am-10pm) . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Parking . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 stars Cleanliness . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Cashier Friendliness . . . . . . . . . . . 5 stars Floor Staff Friendliness . . .. . . . . . 5 stars =================================== AVERAGE SCORE . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4.1 stars If you disagree with any category's rating, message me and I'll take a closer look at it the next time I'm at Sprouts.

The store is always warm and inviting. The gentleman in the Butcher department are so helpful. They can help you select anything from quantities of ground beef to cut of fish. read more

One of my favorite grocery stores - I can almost always find what I need at a fair price. The meat and seafood department is a standout, and Marcus was very helpful when I was picking out some fish. He not only gave great advice on how to prepare it but also shared information about other services they offer for parties and special events. I also love their roasted chicken, especially because they offer a no-seasoning option, which is perfect for my preferences. Really like the vitamin/beauty dept. Found some great bar shampoo as well as natural hair dye. Overall one of my go-to stores. read more

So many reasons Always a looooong wait to get checked out, bagged produce instead of single options, out of things often, stop carrying triEd and trues all the time, just ugh. Also heard they don't treat their employees very good. read more

This review is for the cashier Stuart. There was an issue with my coupon not being applied and he called manager Tina who was very rude (I would give her one star). Stuart kept his composure and professionalism. I appreciate the way he treated me where Tina was so angry she had to change the transaction to apply my coupon. If it's such a Big deal to apply the coupons, why does Sprouts offer them? Stuart deserves a raise! read more

don't know but something seems wrong, not only with their weekly ad (2 for one or 50% off. what's that suppose to mean when they don't give the price to begin with.) their employees don't seem content never mind happy. after writing this review I'm feeling more one star then:two, but oh well read more

I think this is a great place - it's well organized, clean, and the staff are kind. I love all the options for organic food. I will say that sometimes the staff don't remember exactly where things are, but they're always kind, so I don't mind if it takes them a few extra minutes. Recommend for a friendly neighborhood market to get healthy food & vitamins! read more

Very poor interaction with Theresa the cashier. Just an overall bad attitude. Short lady, white hair. I get that you may be having a bad day, but don't take it out on others. read more

I stopped in this North County Sprouts for a number of items, including avocados, organic tortilla chips, white russet potatoes, a loaf of sliced multigrain bread, and some broccoli rabe. All the items were available and accessible. The store was well organized and stocked. All the employee were pretty nice and helpful. I liked that the Sprouts always has competitive prices and offers weekly useful sales. Oh yes, although I did not purchase anything from the meat department, I was highly impressed with the quality and organization of the meat counter. read more

Sprouts is great. This 1 is right off the 5 so it is a convenient location on the way to work or home from work. It is clean, well lit, and has very friendly staff. The layout is not as good as some of the other stores with more room. This 1 seems a little packed in, especially up by the registers. The parking lot is a little annoying, and kind of small with all of the other businesses in that strip mall. People are rude pulling out and will cut you off with no warning. So far the staff is always friendly and helpful. They have some outstanding prices, and they have a great selection of everything from fruits and veggies, to cheese, meat, wine, bread, desserts, etc. They have a deli where you can get meat or get sandwiches made to order at reasonable prices. Pretty good price, like $5 for sandwich, drink and side. On weekends they usually have some kind of free sample, and if you want you can sample the candies and other foods in the bulk bins as long as you ask and don't touch it directly with your hands! Around Thanksgiving or the week or 2 before, they usually offer some type of gift card bonus purchase, like spend $90 and get $10 free or something like that. I think the limit is 2 cards or 3 cards. If you do a lot of shopping there, you might as well take advantage of the special deal. Watch the weekly flyer to see when it happens. It changes every year. read more

This is an older Sprouts. We first shopped here 20+ years ago when it was a Henry's. The associates are very helpful, especially in the Produce department. Shared parking lot gets crowded on the weekends. read more

This is a review primarily for the Deli.... For the past two years I've been coming here about once a week during my lunch break to grab one of their amazingly affordable big sandwiches. No longer. There's always a problem with the deli, but this is really the last straw. I went to get a sandwich but they were out of paper and this guy said "oh let me get you a new piece one sec." There's 9 people working in the back of the deli but somehow even when I come back 15 min later there's still no paper. He then gives me this DISGUSTING STAINED PIECE OF SCRAP PAPER w/ with avocado smeared on it to hand write my order. It took me 40 minutes in total from walking in to leaving, meaning I can't even eat my sandwich because I'm 10min late to get back to work. It's disappointing because now all the customers who come here to grab a quick lunch AND buy some groceries while they are on break can't. And to add to that: I was bumped into not once, but TWICE by EMPLOYEES. wtf? Learn to say excuse me than literally push past your patient customers who are spending 40 min trying to get a simple sandwich. NOT how you want to be treated, especially when you are hungry and ready for lunch. Stay away. read more

The management's mistreatment of employees is disheartening. Unfair practices, lack of appreciation, and a hostile atmosphere contribute to low morale. It's a regrettable work environment that fails to prioritize the well-being and development of its staff. read more

Sprouts has been my market of choice for produce for many years. I love the variety of vegetables, fruits and organics and visit all of the locations near my home at least twice a week. This is my least favorite location for many reasons. 1 (Encinitas location) Getting out is a challenge, when the lines are long they do not open new check stands. 2 (Encinitas location) One of the employees who I have not seen in a while had horrible hygiene. He would handle red hamburger meat and then put a bag over his hands to package seafood without washing his hands. I even asked him to wash them and he refused stating that the bag would contain the contamination. Gross. 3 (Corporate issue) They recently moved all of the varieties of chiles including jalapeno, serrano, wax, pasilla and red jalapenos out of the refrigerated section and reduced their inventory of these items. I spoke with produce department employees and it is due to lack of turnover and low profit. Now they sell inferior products that rot quickly. People buying fresh peppers tend to cook at home and also purchase many other products so selling fresh peppers is a cost of doing business folks, suck it up and buy more refrigeration if it is needed. That conversation brings me to 4 (Corporate issue) The employees are scared to voice their opinions or concerns to corporate. I have spoken with at least 7 employees at at least 4 locations about the peppers and other issues and the general response was that corporate does not listen to them or value their opinions and that the decision to sell unrefrigerated and spoiled peppers was a directive from Corporate. I contacted the corporate office online and now I understand how the employees feel. I was aware of who made the decision to demote the peppers therefore I contacted them. Instead of addressing the concern, they pawned my complaint off on a store manager who was not the point person for the decision wasting his time and my time. I was not fooled by their fake concern for the customer. Gone are the days of a friendly farmer's market, sprouts is evolving far from it's humble roots due to corporate greed. Unfortunately there is not a lot of competition for fresh produce so I will continue to shop at sprouts for products that I can not buy at my local produce store. read more
