I must say that we do enjoy coming to western eagle for their cold box. Many of the reviews state that the food is expired. If it is expired pay attention to what is and do a little research on how long expired can be before actually throwing it away. The vegetables and fruits in the cold box are hit or miss. I tend to go when they post a healthy looking photo on Instagram. The fruits and vegetables need to be eaten first, and within a couple of days or frozen since they will go bad. I have not had a problem with their customer service either. It's a warehouse, and little unorganized. The prices are hit or miss and you have to pay attention to what's actually cheaper, which is fine if you don't mind spending eh extra 10 minutes to do so not everything you will get in the cold box is eatable, but for $15 even if it's half of the box it's worth it if your trying to save a penny or two or 10. read more

Ok, the furniture prices seem a little high. And there is no way that I would buy anything that I can not sit in first. And yes, the food can not be stored for long as it is about to reach it's marked expiration date. But, expiration dates, do not mean that the food has gone bad. You get a ton of food for twenty-five bucks when you purchase a cold box. Again, the fruit and veggies are for immediate use. But, it is still a deal when you have kids that can clear a packed fridge in less then a few days. Yes, I have found things that seem to be marked high considering the store. But, I have also gotten some incredible deals on everything from beauty cream to a weight set. The staff can be hit or miss. But, customer service is VERY important to me, and it has not been so bad that I would not recommend this place, or keep me from returning. read more

This is by far one of the best food banks/thrift stores I have ever visited. The selection is ever changing and you never know what surprises you'll find in the next aisle. The staff is helpful and polite everytime I stop in. I didn't know until today that they help deliver food for almost 10,000 people per month and that's only for the food they send out, not counting the hundreds who walk in everyday. And guess what, there are NO INCOME requirements to qualify for their food box program. Give them a try and they will earn your trust and business!!! read more

Over priced! Not worth the drive anymore... used to be a bargain but not anymore. Who ever is pricing these items needs a reality check, most item can be found a discount stores for similar or better price. Be aware with ALL food item! Go to the Grocery Outlet in Murrieta instead. Just my two cents... read more

This place has always been hit or miss, but in the last 2 years it has really gone downhill. The pricing has always been random, but if you shopped it hard you could find some really good deals. The prices have more than doubled in the last couple of years, often to more than what you would pay at discount stores like W-mart. They used to have a half price weekend that made it worth consideration, but that's been dropped during covid. Most of the non-food merchandise is returns from Costco, Sams, etc and it's in used condition, but the asking price is often more than the new price at Costco. The food is always near or beyond the expiration date, and I've purchased cookies etc that have already turned rancid. Yuck. The staff is not very friendly or helpful, and it surprises me that this outlet is run by a christian foundation. I continue to check it out once or twice a year, but each time have been disappointed and shocked by the high prices for salvage products. I'm surprised that folks continue to shop there, but maybe they are just uninformed. Hemet has some better bargain stores. read more

I love the western eagle it has a great variety of merchandise. A senior day on Tuesdays works as a food bank good quality for furniture good quality staff willing to help you with any of your needs great customer service read more

I cannot believe the products/furniture/every day household items/food/vegetables in this huge facility! It's a hidden gem that once you go once it will be a weekly stop for sure! Incredible pricing on everything! Customer service is impeccable as well! Open 7 days a week..... a must go to!! read more

This store is our favorite! We find great deals on food, bath, body, and even furniture here!

They always have a great selection of organic food items and other items you would normally get at a grocery store. The staff is always super nice and helpful. I have met the owner and he is super down to earth and his daughter works there too. I highly recommend checking it out- especially for their great prices! read more

Always Incredible Finds at Western Eagle! Not only do they have the greatest prices in the area, but they are a NON-PROFIT that feeds over 300 families in our community weekly! Everythi ng you purchase from here supports the organization. Whenever Im struggling with income I head to western eagle to get one of their INCREDIBLE food boxes. No questions asked you write your name down, pay $15, and get a box of pantry and produce items. Some places make you really uncomfortable when you get discounted food, but not here. Everyone is so friendly they make you feel like family when you walk in. If you have food allergies, there always seems to be items that are gluten and dairy free available. If you havent been yet, GO!!! read more

I always enjoy going out to Western Eagle! For me, it's like a trip! 1st Saturdays are cool because pretty much everything is half off. However, you have to be willing to deal with the heat and all the people walking all close to you. Back in the day, it seemed like we were able to get better deals, but now, some of the items are cheaper at Walmart! One thing Walmart can't beat though is their price on chips - $0.10 for a bag of chips... I usually get about $10 worth! I love that mostly all of the workers are volunteers and are always very nice. That makes me happy and makes me want to support the foundation even more! read more

We shop at Western Eagle about once a week, occasionally we purchase the Cold Box which is $15.00. There is an incredible selection of their items in the cold box, high quality groceries....lots of organic items. Then the fresh produce is great...sometimes there are a few items that I would pass over...but basically it's a great deal. There are also frozen meats - beautiful steaks.....and the rest of the canned goods are very good deals....Be sure to check the dates...We love Western Eagle!! read more

Good selection it's very clean and workers are very nice. Has a lot of nice furniture as well.

Prices and food selection is good here the customers service sucks and all the boomers here stare at you like you need to move out their way TERRIBLE customer service The Lady at the register was a B$&):!:! read more

I enjoy coming here...my mom thinks I'm crazy because she doesn't really care for the "dumps" that are probably donated to this store. I have found things that are NOT expired and items from Whole Foods. Why pay more? The store can be a bit distorted but it's a trip I take when I'm out there. read more

I've been shopping here since they were down by the Temecula DMV and it's still great. A little known place Western Eagle is a non-profit organization that acts as a clearinghouse for Ikea, Doc Martin, and other name brand retainers. The best thing is that since the proceeds fund a local ministry everything you buy is tax deductible since they are non-profit. Whether your working on your house or looking for a quick gift it pays to check out Western Eagle. read more

Thank you Russ (Manager ) and staff for truly caring about families that need help with food! I have been coming here for eight years and always recommend it to my friends! A Great Value to our community is Western Eagle Foundation! They not only have food but all kinds of supplies that I use every week! I love this resource! I am so very appreciative of all they offer! read more

You have to be very delegent when looking at dates on food products or you will end up throwing them away when you get home or try returning them. They have really up their prices so paying 2 dollars for something expired is asking to much. They say they are nonprofit but know they are making a profit for sure. My friend owned clothing stores outlets and know the prices they bid on lots of goods and same here and some are donated. read more

Western eagle has been a lifesaver for me and my family. The staff is very caring and goes to great lengths to help.While the selections are sometimes limited due to the humanitary they receive, there are always great deals. I would not have been able to provide Christmas for my family without Western eagle. They are my secret Santas this year.! read more

I've been coming here off and on for 15 years and have shared it with many friends who want to save on food costs. It's always a real Treasure Trove and well worth the $15 for the cold box. What I don't need, I gift to my neighbors. You need to know your prices for the Grocery Store area and there are always great bargains to be had. Everyone but the cashiers are volunteers. I'm always happy to support this great non-profit organization. read more

It was our first visit to Western Eagle today. Lots of bargains here!! If you're on a budget, or just want to save a buck on groceries, this is the place. Also, friendly customer service. read more

Western Eagle Foundation - Food Banks Near Me - Temecula, California

When you walk in, there's a big sign on the left talking about expired medications and how it's still safe to use them. So you should know that you're bound to get expired things or things close to their expiration date. With that said, if you're looking for snacks, this is a good place to come. They have 12 cliff bars for $3, tons of chocolate, trail mix, cereal, chips, etc. They also have baby stuff (car seats, bath stuff), pet food, very limited selection of female hygiene and adult diapers, home decor, limited furniture and stationary, and very, very limited produce--some of which is organic. If you have time to shop and check things carefully, you can save a bit of money by coming here. read more

Western eagle Foundation is an amazing place to shop. All the food is discounted and you can get so much and pay half the price you would at other stores. There also have a foodbox which cost $15 that has basic food items. I recommend this place for all you shopping needs from medicines, beauty products, furniture, and basic food items etc. read more

Cheap goodies, groceries, and household supplies. This is where dented cans, boxes with old logos, and discontinued products spend their final resting place at. Some things are expired, other things are just fine. Keep a keen eye out and you can spot a few deals! read more

I love this place!! So happy and excited to have found it! The staff and all the workers have been so friendly and polite!

So disappointed in this place! EVERYTHING I received in my cold box was expired. Not even by a couple days, try a freaking week! Disgusting! Rotten eggs, cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese. Such a waste. Called to complain and the employee said "ya that's normal or it's usually very close to expiration." Waste of time and money. read more

Fun place! They have all kinds of stuff here. They used to have more furniture when they were over on Jefferson. Like this location because its closer to me but the selection was better in the old place. Prices are always great just check expirations in th food items. read more

They I time good to go to this place is the 1st weekend of the month mostly everything is half off Some stuff very expensive Do not buy the candy very old And stale one young girl that works there very rude they wanted 50 bucks for 3 filters I told her was to much she told me to buy it eles where I'd saw it cheeper . read more

I've been coming to western eagle foundation since they were in their old location. This place is great for those of us on tight budgets. The 15$ food box is a really good deal that you can't pass up. They also have some good finds once in awhile. When it comes to the food here just check the product thoroughly before you purchase because some things are expired or close to expiration. read more

This establishment is seriously a lifesaver. We sometimes get low on $$$ and the western eagle foundation is always there to save the day. Its humbling to know that we are all on the same page, but struggling never has any of the wonderful people who work there look down on you. Everyone has a colorful story to tell and its warming to not only get help when you need it, but when you're doing well financially, I continue to buy the decorative items to help support and fund their exchange and food box programs. read more

Just found this spot after a long while since they moved from their old location by the VFW on Diaz Rd. It's like a Costco set up now and they have everything from food, to housewhole goods, to clothes, to furniture and electronics. I walked in today and everything seemed to be 50% off. I quick scanned and saw $200 coffee/capuccino combo makers for $50. Jeans for $2.50 each (some donated and some new). They have the food box for $25 dollars which will feed a family of 4 for a week (meat, veggies, bread, fruits, pasta and can foods). The staff is awesome for being 80% volunteers. All the money you spend here (or little I should say) goes back into the community to help fund other programs. There is no entrance fee or membership or income verification. I saw everything from 40 year old cars to brand new BMW's in the parking lot so, everybody is welcomed. I walked out today with a 12-pack of Guarana soda, all for the low price of..........$1.00! read more

They say they are decicated to feeding the hungry.. WHAT A JOKE! Most of the food is expired, or very near experation. Its all donated to them and then they charge more than retail, except for the food box, its $15 dollars, and expired junk, nothing to make a meal, old yogurt, sour cream, or cream cheese, and milk... maybe a orange juice, even if it is sometimes organic, its expired 90% of the time. Most of the produce is always rotten. The poor that go there are desparate and that 15 bucks is a lot for them, so sad!!! The whole warehouse stunk like rotten food last time I went. This man that owns this place must be making millions on all this donated crap, and nothing is free for the poor or hungry! People go in tgere and buy thinking its their contributions to helping feed the poor... I get the chips for 10 cents for kids, and sometimes they are even stale! Shame on him.. he will answer one day to God!!! read more

Gotten too big for it's britches! I can get a jar of this or a bottle of that for .79 at the store, here it's marked 1.00 . It should be .50 right. Many items are priced above what you can get in store on a sale or the .99 cent store. The furniture and decorating items are usually 50% off. That's the ONLY WAY they could ever sell this stuff. And once in awhile could someone go thru and take out the damaged stuff and put it in a clearance pile? No they want full price for it and won't take any less. Forget this place. And the food boxes look terrible these days. The produce is sad looking and old. And as for the rest of the shopping, it is too high priced. read more

Scored today on lots of great snacks... Name brand snacks 20 for $1 Each time I've been there its different items. Grab it when you're there because next time it may not be there. Lots of great items for cheap but just keep an eye out for expiration dates read more

This place is awesome. everything you need and use. It has food, health and beauty products, furniture, house hold items, seasonal stuff, and most importantly, clothes. They buy stuff from stores at a discounted rate and sell it at that low price, then turn around and feed families in need. I've been going for years, and it just keeps getting better. If you really want to save money, go there on the first Saturday of the month, because almost everthing is 50% off. The people that work there are very helpful and friendly, and even though it is very busy on that first saturday, they all have a smile on their faces. read more

Today on my way home from Romoland I stopped by the store with a friend who recommended it. Honestly, I cannot believe how much food you get for their $25 box deal. Literally, it would be over $100 at costco or any major grocery store. For this small fee I received two boxes full of brand name milk, juice, rice, beans, salad dressings, yogurt, meat, etc. along with a ridiculous amount of tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, nectarines, green beans- the list goes on! This warehouse isn't the nicest or most organized facility, but their prices and friendly volunteer stuff makes up for it. On top of the box deals they have some nice discounts on furniture, they are mostly products that didn't sell in stores or household items that were returned (irons, coffee pots etc). Everything I saw was in pretty good condition, some of the food on the shelves was expired but probably only 10% of it. Since there aren't membership fees or restrictions, I would definitely go check it out if you're ever in the area! *credit, debit, ebt and cash accepted! read more

I went for the first time today and was pleasantly surprised. The inside looks like a warehouse but the prices are unbelievable. They have a lot of holiday decorations priced almost to nothing. I got a couple of 24" berry wreath for $5 each. I can't even buy a grapevine wreath for that price. I went home with another green wreath for $10, a couple of swags for a $1 each, a box of fruit filler for$4 and 5 flameless candles for $4 each. I didn't really lget the chance to look around because I was pressed for time but I will definitely be back! read more

Used to be a lot better. Now the prices are insane! I can buy this stuff new from a nice store for what they're charging. The bargains are few and far between here now. read more

Looking for a good bargain?!? Western Eagle is the place to go!! They have a lot of good quality items, from canned good to furniture. A lot of the items are expired or near expiration, but that's just the manufacturer's recommendations so it's still good. I send care packages out to those who are deployed and this is a good place to get useful items when deployed. read more

Great deals on Saturdays. Some of their food is at or beyond expiration. But, we were going camping so I wanted to load up on snacks. Paid $30 for a shoppin cart full of stuff! read more
