Sprouts Farmers Market

I’m incredibly disappointed. I am a frequent customer, in fact I’m there almost twice a week for lunch. Today I came in to order a sandwich, and everything seemed fine. I put my order in, but there was no line and nobody else had put in an order ahead of me so I assumed I’d be helped rather quickly. It took almost half an hour for someone to notice that I had left my sandwich card out, and not only that it took them almost ten minutes to realize they were out of sourdough. Which was the first ingredient. I told her to just put it on a roll, that that would be fine. I just wanted my sandwich at this point.
By the time it was done I had waited a total of 45 minutes, and when I got home I realize she got my order, which was written out very clearly on the sandwich card and returned to me in my sandwich paper for me to even see, incredibly wrong. I probably won’t be back for a very long time. This is incredibly frustrating, I did not get what I paid for and there’s no way for me to get my money back. I wasn’t even able to eat my food so I wasted money I could have used on something I actually could have eaten.

Becoming very unhappy with Sprouts.
Produce quality has been very poor, often spoils within 2 – 3 days of purchase.
Meat department has great products, excellent prices but service deserves a negative 2 score. Staff ignores customers or acts as if your bothering them .
Checkout staff looks unhappy like they hate their jobs. And check out is always slow, expect long lines and only 2 – 3 cashiers and no one looks interested in helping them.

While this store is much larger than the Sacramento store it has about the same level of customer service. The meat counter is pretty good but beyond that, it’s next to nothing. Everyone once in a while you will get a produce person who is there for more than a job but is very passionate about his products. I asked about some apples I’ve never heard of and he not only started describing the variety but was cutting up a sample apple. This went on for three more apples without me asking. He was the only spark in the store on my many visits besides the cashiers. At all their locations, the cashiers always try to get you to leave on a positive note.
Plenty of parking but the egress is just off the front door and makes it very dangerous for pedestrians. Do yourself a favor and park two or three rows in and have a longer but safer walk.
Get their app on your phone for weekly specials and they often run 72 hour sales for holiday weekends. Another plus to their app is you can build your shopping list directly on it.

Love this location and this store. The variety and product is always great! Super fresh veggies and fruit, you can not beat that at the other local grocery stores.

I have shopped at many grocery stores in this area for the last 40 years and Sprouts has a special place in my heart… not generic or typical… Sprouts stores all have ambiance… and great marketing aids that make you want to stay and shop… produce…wonderful and fresh (like i harvested it myself).so many terrific values… it’s definitely worth the drive (or walk if you live close like I do… enjoy…CaptainDan

Well organized and clean. I like to look at the variety of drinks they have. They also are the only place I know that carries raw milk. it is a bit expensive, but it taste so good. Staff is very friendly as well.

Sprouts is the best.
Their produce is always fresh and cheapest around town. Their selection is always expanding. And their staff are friendly.
I always shop here when I’m in the neighborhood for my weekly groceries. They have huge selections of vegan meals and treats. They also have monthly coupons that can save you couple of cents.
Definitely prefer this grocery store to the many others~

This is a great stop after hitting the year round farmer’s market just down the way in the same parking lot. It’s worth taking a look at the weekly ad ahead of time to know what is being heavily promoted in the produce area. My preference is to support our local farmers but the whole farm to fork at times feels like it’s morphing to farm to wallet. It seems every week Sprouts rolls out some amazing produce sales. I have purchased cantaloupe at 3 x $ 1, corn at 5 x $ 1, avocados 3 x $ 1 and all were California grown. The corn was from Brentwood and the cantaloupe was from Westley. The bulk food section is extensive but I find the pricing a little hit and miss in terms of being a deal. I’m also not a fan of the meats or baked goods. There are too many other places that do better in these areas. It summary works real well to supplement the farmer’s market produce and the bulk foods are a nice touch. Also, a word of caution on the parking, it’s horrific when it gets busy. I tend to walk down from the farmer’s market area and walk back to avoid the chaos.

Very attractively laid out store with plenty of beautiful fresh produce, a nice deli/​meat counter, bakery area, vitamins and supplements, lots of craft beers, interesting wines and snack foods galore. I stopped in for some Superfood, bottled water and stuff like that. Finding tasty foods was easy and check out was fast. Location was convenient. What more could I ask for? Not much!

Great place to get nutritious and healthful ingredients for great tasting home cooking. I shop here a lot for the variety of cooking oils, fresh and frozen veggies, vitamins and supplements, and their bi-​hourly rotisserie chickens at $ 7.50 a bird!

Awesome customer service! Everyone there is very friendly and professional! :) Also, the fruit is always perfect.

I’ve been here many times. And whenever I get muffins I ask for the package so I can pick my own variety. The people in the bakery are hardly ever there so it’s quite difficult to get my muffins. And today was the same. I saw an older male employee and asked him to retrieve one for me but he had some words to say and was quite reluctant to get me what I asked for.
Sprouts need to employee more people of higher quality. Their lines are always long and never any staff nearby when you need help. And some of their staff are quite rude

I drive all the way from Lodi to shop here. Great dealsn high quality produce, lots of hard to find options for vegetarians, vegan, gluten free, organic! Highly recommend! Their supplement area employees are very knowledgeable and helpful. Wish we had a store closer. But worth the drive!

Now this is what I would expect when I walk into a grocery store:
— Well-​organized, clean aisles with well-​stocked groceries and meats
— Seasonal, fresh produce with many organic options
— Generic brands with organic options and low prices
— Bulk section where you can pay by weight
— ApplePay accepted (yes, via the Watch or the iPhone)
Please open a Sprouts in SF soon!

Spring and summer are the best times for Sprouts. You can not beat the prices and variety of produce they have on hand. Ever since the BF had to go on a low sodium diet, Sprouts has been our go to place not just for produce but also for bulk items such as whole, unroasted almonds, oats, granolas and raw seeds. The nutritional information for all their bulk items are easily displayed and I will usually take a photo of it for reference later in.
I also like their seafood and meat section. I keep an eye out for when they have a sale on salmon or other seafood. I’ve tried buying in bulk and freezing it, but it just doesn’t taste as good. So, I will buy only what I plan to cook right away.
They also have a nice little selection of cheeses and charcuterie. It’s not the largest selection, but works for me. I will usually pop by and grab some cheese, wine and fruit for an after dinner treat or to bring to a party or get together.
Only drawback to this location is that they often run out of popular bulk items. There will be times when I will go for a specific item and they will be out. I hate wasting a trip to the market. I also find that their staff isn’t as friendly or as knowledgeable as Trader Joe’s staff. They’re not rude or anything, but it just doesn’t feel like they go out of their way.

I love going to my neighborhood Sprouts Market. I can always count on finding fresh Fruits and Vegetables. I may not cook very often at home but when I do decide to I usually go to Sprouts to pick up my fresh ingredients.
Before I shop for groceries, I usually put in an order for a Turkey sandwich at the Deli. I really enjoy their sandwiches. They usually make it pretty quick.
The best thing about Sprouts is not just fresh Fruits and Vegetables but my very favorite Pumpkin Pie! I usually always crave sweets and I feel Sprout’s Pumpkin Pie always satisfies my craving. For the price tag of just $ 4.99, you can get 3 Pies for a price of one from Nugget. I used to purchase my Pumpkin Pies from Nugget for $ 15.99. Now that I’ve tried Sprout’s Pie for $ 4.99, I will no longer have to pay that bigger price tag for a good Pie.

Update: downgrading their star rating to four. This is all due to the way they handle the food/​produce you’re purchasing. I’ve noticed this countless times and was hoping I was just getting them on a bad day, but no, it’s consistent. The cashier throws your items across to the bagger, bruising apples, bananas and papayas. I bring in plenty of bags so that they don’t overstuff the bags, but the bagger makes them so heavy and will place a bag of organic apples in another bag with stuff on top. There is no rhyme or reason in their bagging. A few times I’ve requested to bag the groceries myself. Today the bagger threw the egg carton in sideways and just literally threw the bags into the cart. Shoppers spend time picking out their fruits, veggies and eggs for a reason! Please teach your baggers how to respectfully handle these items and how to bag them properly!

Love Sprouts for their produce. Can’t find a better produce selection anywhere with better prices. Their meat department is excellent to for pork, chicken, fish, and speciality sausage. Not so much for beef.
Back to the produce, last summer they had grapes for .98 cents a pound ! They often have blackberries, strawberries, for .98 a basket during the summer. Fresh pineapple for $ 1.98 each, avocados for .98 cent or the big Haas variety 2 for $ 3 .
Store is clean, well stocked, and easy to get around. Workers are friendly and helpful. The butcher is always ready to give you suggestions on your fresh meat orders.
Love Sprouts !!

Sprouts is a great place for produce. I’ve been meaning to check the place out for a while, because I hear great things about them. I was recently lured in by their ad. I think it was 3/​$ 1 mangos and 2/​$ 1 avocados. Unfortunately, they weren’t ripe! I also got some blueberries which were cheaper than another grocery store I went to. I didn’t look around much, so I’ll have to give the place another chance next time. I guess this is the next best thing to an actual farmer’s market.

I love sprouts! This place always had fresh produce, awesome selection of specialty foods and super friendly staff. I don’t tend to shop at this location often but it is very nice. I recently received a beautiful bouquet of assorted flowers for my birthday from here and they were bought on Sunday and its now Friday and they are still beautiful!

The best butterscotch muffin a girl could find! I am really not a muffin fan… I will eat it if its there but generally would not buy it. I walked by the muffin area and couldn’t help buying a muffin for 0.99/muffin. I was so taken back because i couldn’t set it down until I was done, the muffin was completely devoured! Astonishing for a girl who munchies (It usually takes me 2 – 3 times to finish one). I came back last night and bought 4= bad move… all 4 is gone today!!! ;(Dangerously good! :)
I like sprouts. Super clean. Similar to other places like Natural food co-​op and Nugget market. I like this place because it isn’t so expensive like Nugget market. You’d find deals here… I don’t ever go to one place for all my grocery needs… so this place is perfect for me for the deli (great selection of Boars head meat) fresh bakery and definitely Noosa yogurt (Lemon is my fav!).

I’ve been shopping at Sprout’s since back in the days it was called Boney’s and was just in the San Diego area. I was very pleased when Henry’s opened up here in Elk Grove as I knew it was what had been Boney’s in San Diego with a name change. Now the name has changed to Sprout’s.
Same great produce and bulk foods at very good prices. If those good prices carried over to the rest of the store I would gladly give it 5 stars. But, that isn’t the case and the rest of the store is pretty over priced. Once in a while I will buy meat, but only if on sale at a great price. The rest of the store I pretty much ignore and buy those items at Safeway.

We have gone to Sprouts market a number of times. I guess I owe it to myself to review it, right?
This store is not far from my home though I would not walk here; it’s a bit of a trek. It probably will take an hour!
We came here for a few items: Arctic Zero frozen dessert, Think Thin fiber bars and nuts. They have a huge variety of Arctic Zero, maybe six different flavors and their prices are better than most markets. I wanted some fiber bars after being offered some Herbalife bars the other day that I hope this suffices. My HB wanted nuts as he ran out of his supply of almonds!
I was looking for Asian pears but I didn’t like what they had. I guess I better hit the farmers markets now!
We were checked out rather quickly. The lady checker noticed my purple leopard sunglasses. I told her SF japantown where they sell the purse knockoffs.
It was a painless day of grocery shopping!
