Community Foods Market

Wow! I love this spot. Feels good to spend dollars on a community focused business rather than greedy corporate grocery stores.

So. Much. Veggie/Vegan. Options. That selection alone blows Safeway out of the water. I'm ashamed it took me so long to give it a shot, but I'll be coming back here a lot.

Great people, good food available, great prices, wonderful pew part of the neighborhood and community.

The store is nice and clean. The employees were very welcoming, polite and professional. The produce was fresh and organic and reasonably priced. This is a store that was greatly needed in the neighborhood, I suggest that anyone and everyone that can to please go and patronize this grocery store it would help our community!!

Clean, friendly staff, well knowledgeable of products available. Love the locally grown options and the deli area was open, clean and did not require you to pay before you finished shopping. There is an ample amount of parking and overall a great place to shop. The selections are not as extensive as Safeway which is up the block; but the food appears fresher and local.

Stopped by to check this place out for lunch. The deli person was super helpful. $7.00 for an entree and two sides which I would consider a good deal for hot food. I was greeted at the door. I felt welcomed. Everything is new and clean looking. They just opened June so they’re fresh. I recommend this place.

Really friendly staff, clean and spacious, well stocked inventory during these crazy times, and good social distancing practice. Produces are fresh. They even have my favorite healthy Swiss cereal! Prices are reasonable. Parking is convenient. Come support your community instead of Costco’s!

Love this market! The Cafe has great hot food at a good value and I have purchased great produce, meat, and more in the grocery store. There is also a small variety of classic and artisan sodas, which may be more regionally known in other states or rare to find in most stores. I also love that folks are friendly and I am able to quickly get what I need.

This place is everything. The deli staff are beyond helpful, sweet and respectful, along with the little African American lady that work the registers, and a few other men I seen putting in work as well. The food is GOOD GOOD, and surprisingly AFFORDABLE!!! They have $3 $5 and $7 plates of REAL food. Jerk chicken, shrimp & grits, fish, greens , yams, and way more. Truly proud of this place, we need more community stores like this one!!!

Amazing owner and staff. Now if only I could get the one single security guard to honor the fact that I'm an epileptic with a registered service animal it would be perfect. Besides the one single security guard everything else is incredible. They support the community and have excellent prices. A breath of fresh air in Oakland without the gentrification.

So great to have this store in the neighborhood! Nice selection of all essential foods (no alcohol) and great food in the deli. I happened to visit on a day they were having a bbq and that food was great too. Very clean store, super kind staff, and a decently sized parking lot. Love it!

This place is ammaazzzinggg.

I was finally close enough to shop at this store, and I'll admit I was a little scared the prices would be higher for an independent grocery store, and that's a big nope!
I got all of my taco ingredients, canned goods, produce, fresh salsa, locally made tortillas, ALL for the same price I would at any other grocery store. Was impressed to see a wide variety of everything, a meat counter, vegan products, etc. There might not be 10 brands of every product, but every product you should need is there with the best value and quality products.

5 stars for food accessibility and a great store!!!

Love supporting my local West Oakland grocer. Groceries are cheap, good quality, and they have a solid selection of organic and non-organic product and meats. Really love shopping here. I would give it a knock for sometimes not carrying everything I need, but I still manage to do 90% of my shopping here. Go team!

This is a great community store that pretty much have everything you need from good produce to fresh meat in the meat dept. To a great deli who has a great local chef that knows how to cook! I rarely go to whole foods anymore because pretty much they have everything you need.

It was a great experience shopping here. Let’s keep this grocery store around by shopping here. The produce was fresh and there were all the essential pantry items you’d find elsewhere. Looking forward to my next trip there. Parking was easy too.

Great first experience! I miss the garlic Mac n cheese. I got some things for the house and picked up for a friend and I felt I got a good bang for my buck. Location is great, you can take the free shuttle from MacArthur Bart and walk fro 40th(it’s not that far a walk). I like that they had hard to find stuff and VEGETARIAN AND VEGAN OPTIONS. Very fresh food: there is a full service cafe and a deli and meat/seafood. My partner also agrees: This place is where it’s at! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽👌🏽😎💰🔥

Great for basics and pretty good looking produce. They had a good looking meat and seafood, as well as prepared foods. They are clearly still figuring what things to stock but are a welcome addition to the neighborhood and everyone was very friendly.

Beautiful store, great prices, beautiful atmosphere, fresh produce, and then the employees, great staff and plenty of parking, I was shop there all the time. All in the deli we must not forget the deli great food loved it. My experience was awesome.

Clean, safe, cheap, parking. Its also the first time I’ve been to a grocery store that everyone seems really happy to work at. Lots of cool vegetable variety- normally I’d have to go to Monterey market and pay way more. Definitely my new grocery store of choice.

I went shopping here for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was warm and the selection was very good. I was especially impressed by the price and variety of fresh produce. The prepared foods are also quite good.

This place is so awesome. I love how you can find organic healthy products in West Oakland, the stuff might be a little more expensive then a corporate grocery store. However the staff is always so sweet and you can find everything you are looking for!
