I had a fantastic experience at this store! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my shopping trip enjoyable. The place was spotless, which really enhanced the overall atmosphere. On top of that, they offer Marianne's Ice Cream, and let me tell you, it is absolutely delicious! If you're looking for a great place to shop and indulge in some scrumptious ice cream, I highly recommend this spot! 10/10 would definitely recommend 😋

My daughter just had a class field trip and the staff was amazing! So kind and professional! And because we got to go into the meat section, the grill area, bakery, and even the Starbucks, I can honestly say how clean everything was! And you can use your Safeway card, Im def. going to start shopping here, thank you to daphney, Richard, meat manager, Stephanie, Starbucks barista etc. !

This supermarket was amazing! I wish I had remembered to take pictures inside. They have a wonderful deli, bakery, and even a Starbucks inside. We chose a quiche to take to our hotel to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. It was one of the best quiches we have had anywhere including Paris! The employees were pleasant and happy to help at Andronico's. We'll be back!

I shop here regularly as my primary market, as this market is the Best on the Monterey Peninsula for High Quality Products and for Value as they have many sales and an "Andronicos for U" program that is helpful in achieving value. The customer service is outstanding and the store is beautifully laid out and kept spotless ( a huge plus as I detest unkempt stores especially grocery stores ). The deli has the freshest salad bar and an excellent selection of hot soups rotated regularly. Their chicken 🐔 is far better than the other markets associated with Safeway. As are their deli choices ~ fresher and appealing presented. Hygiene is a huge focus here and being a Germaphobe, I certainly appreciate that! Plus it's Never Crowded like the other markets in the county. It has such a full range in Price Point that Everyone can be satisfied in getting their necessary groceries. Their 🥗🥗🥗 Salad Selection in both the Produce and Deli section are Top Notch and Beat Elroy's and Trader Joe's. The best customer service in the County!! My service dog is welcomed and treated properly unlike Trader Joe's that violates Federal Law and actually harasses Federally Protected Animal Companions in Service ( crazy!!! ). Andronicos is THE PLACE to shop on every level.
Best Ice Cream section also.

Overpriced! Overpriced! Overpriced!
Ex. A donut that is About two for a dollar, 99 Cents or $1.25 at Safeway is selling for $1.99 here!!! Why?! It's the same unhealthy crap!!!
Same thing for all their other Bakery items.
Here, their Produce is way more expensive than even Lucky (where prices are extremely high as well)!
As long as we dummy up and don't stand up to these supermarkets high prices and buy all their stuff for high prices there is no stopping them! They have their foot on the price increase gas pedal and accelerating sometimes over speeding to higher and higher prices!
if you don't play the price police and stop supporting them they won't stop! If it is not a must-have item or you can purchase it elsewhere cheaper don't buy it at overpriced markets such as this one, make your own Sandwich or salad or pasta at home or buy it at Walmart or somewhere cheaper, let their product such as Bakery and produce expire or Rot on their shelves so they'll bring their prices back down to earth!!

For an Agricultural state the produce is outrageously expensive here and everywhere in Monterey County, one would expect the opposite!!!

There is a cashier named Kim who's been very RUDE to me twice that I went there and I meant to complain about it's rude attitude here!

I wish people would drive a Mile or two further to Safeway or elsewhere and avoid the overpriced places like Andronico's market and Lucky Super Market.
Why not save $$$ at cheaper markets and stretch your dollars when you can?!
Don't be a victim of outrageously high prices, Please!
If it's not a must-have don't buy it at high priced stores buy it elsewhere and don't condone their bad business Practice which is (Ripping you off)! Let their perishable and non-perishable overpriced items get expired and Rot!
The only way I can think of fighting back with high prices!

Maybe... And only maybe then, the overpriced, blood sucking markets will lower their Bakery and the other outrageously priced products.

This covid Disaster was a great excuse for all the rotten retailers, Service providers, businesses, Food industry; Restaurants, Fast foods and Supermarkets.... To all raise their prices for product and services very very unreasonably! Retailers really have no mercy and don't know their limits anymore, got to put a STOP to this s. h. i. t where every business is ripping off the consumer since the COVID EXCUSE!
It all begins with supply and demand so if you don't have to have it don't buy it!

Bought $150+ worth of food here and got a parking ticket (I was NOT over the 90 minute limit). Spoke to the store manager and she said there is nothing they can do, they do not control the parking attendant. I asked the (seemingly not smart) parking attendant and he said that he is allowed to ticket before 90 minutes because "it is very busy."

I then asked the store manager if she would prefer for me to return the $150+ of groceries I purchased, or if she would help me contest the ticket (as I did not feel right about paying both). She told me to return the groceries and pay the ticket. Crazy!

Love this grocery store in Monterey..they have the best bakery stuff and pretty floral items. The meat and produce is always fresh too. There is also a Starbucks here and they have clean restrooms!

Extremely friendly team members, great self serve soup, hot/cold and wing bar. Nice outdoor seating area for a quick stop. I’ve been here 3 times in the last 3 days and team are always impeccably kind and personable.
