I really enjoy visiting Peacock Market, a longtime Oldtown Clovis staple that has been serving the community since 1960. Blending historic charm with a modern touch, it is far more than just a convenience store--it is a neighborhood institution.
Inside, the market houses a bodega-style setup featuring a thoughtfully curated selection of local vendors, including Miguel's Salsa and Taqueria, one of my favorite local eateries. Having access to high-quality, artisanal, and locally sourced food in such a convenient and accessible location makes it a standout in Oldtown Clovis.
Beyond its specialty food vendors, Peacock Market also excels in its everyday offerings. I can usually find my favorite chips, candies, and king-sized chocolate bars, along with an impressive variety of Asian candies and snacks that are often hard to come by elsewhere in the area.
Their beverage program is equally notable. The market carries a unique and curated selection of spirits and drinks, including craft beers and hard-to-find whiskeys and tequilas, making it a go-to spot for discovering something special.
What I appreciate most, though, is the atmosphere. As a local, veteran-owned business, Peacock Market serves as a welcoming community hub--especially for local veterans. It is clean, well-lit, and inviting, with a friendly, neighborhood feel that keeps people coming back. read more
