Food 4 Less

I usually come in shortly before closing.I always enjoy the very short lines, if any, and a great assortment of food that costs less than most grocery stores.The store is always kept very clean and I feel comfortable shopping there until closing time every time I come in.I find the staff is always friendly & Go out of their way to keep the customer always happy.In all, one of my favorite grocery stores in the area. For not having specialty items generally, it is great.There is a Trader Joe's right next door to it for the higher end items if desired.

Good selection of produce and other groceries. Meats are hit and miss. Nice alternative to the other grocery chains format.

Very good prices compared to most grocery stores in SLO. Produce could be better. Sometimes long lines. Update- Bad milk bought last night - watch out for old dates. Skeptical from now on.

Prices are good, cashier was short tempered. Yelled at nearly every customer in line. Also yelled at other employees to "pick it up". Not a pleasant shopping experience. My impression is they are understaffed and overworked.

They used to be open 24 hours but now close at midnight. Staff is decent but it's kind of hit & miss when it comes to niceness.

I bought Daisy sour cream and Producers Heavy Whip cream on April 28th. These two items were spoiled when we opened them to use them on April 29th. The expiration date was May 6th.Very dissatisfied with the quality of produce Food Less has. This isn't the first time either.Unsatisfied

Friendly staff and they try to be helpful. Can find pretty much everything you want that is at a big store market but with more reasonable pricing.Produce is usually really good, a variety of meats that you can't often find at regular supermarkets around here.Lots of parking but can be crowded and tight as it's near a Trader Joe's.

Sunday night September 17 at 9:40 PM, allows 2 young men (children) to use the electric handicap carts to drive around the store, even acting childish, while doing so

I like food for less it's the only place I can get my eziekial bread and my frozen dinner entries Smart Ones with the best variety in town their clean associates are helpful and friendly mask are required and you don't have to pay for a grocery cart. Also they have wipes to sanitize their baskets check out is fast and easy even though you have to do your own bagging

Carries the "basics", nothing unusual or out of the ordinary. The store is always clean, the produce is always fresh. The prices are lower than anyone else in town. It is conveniently located, plus it is next door to Trader Joe's that carries most of the things they dont. Can be busy just after 5pm for an hour or so on weekdays.

I enjoy shopping here. Usually just to grab something for lunch. It's not too crowded and can get around and grab what you need fairly quickly. Checking out is the only real short coming. There's no express or self checkout and lines get backed up with grocery cart shoppers. When they open additional checkouts the other customers can be pretty rude and back it up with more cart shoppers.

These folks have a huge selection and the greatest prices around!! I was astounded at how low some of their products are (and no, they were not close to expiring). Their fruits a d veggies are the best I've ever seen...huge selection and super fresh. I HIGHLY recommend this supermarket, even if you have to drive out of your way to go there. They're the best in the entire area!!!!

Not a bad place to shop. Good prices, some good brands, and few good meat and produces. You don't find everything there but you don't find everything in any single grocery store. You usually have to visit different stores to buy all the brands and products the family like and if you keep good prices in mind. And last but not least, that's really weird to see birds flying around inside the store. Birds get into the store and you can easily see them over the floor or flying all over the place which makes you doubt about the sanitary conditions of the products on the shelves and open freezers.

I usually go here when in the area. Really clean & prices are good. They aren't cleaning grocery carts & signage indicated they were out of sanitary wipes. All workers worn masks. Haven't seen handicapped riding carts but they may have them. Plenty of parking.

Lots of options!always has what I need. This is also the best place to buy meats in town. And they have really good deals on stuff sometimes like I just got a whole case of monsters for about 50 cents a piece.

I did my shopping in the morning about 9 am and it went fast.from finding my needs to checking out . Could of used 10 minutes give or take, in the whole process . Everyone of the employees that morning was friendly. When I went through the checkout, the cashier was as friendly as one of the congregation of a church I used to go to . ( victory outreach Lompoc ) The prices are very fair ,the stock was plentiful, and quality of produce and product didn't leave me wondering if it might be tainted due to substantial machinery in the supplier of product or produce . Plenty of parking is also a plus at the foods 4 less in the area.I definitely recommend this place to shop at in the mornings if you need to get your groceries or whatever you may need at the time . I will return and will let my close friends know about this store

Now THAT'S customer service! A warehouse full of food at great prices! The greatest selection of produce and meat. ( If that's your thing). Tons of daily needs like laundry soap. Associates are great and helpful.

We fly out of SLO quite frequently and I made a stop at Food 4 Less on my way home after dropping my husband off at the airport. What a great market. Everything is displayed so nicely. Fruit and vegetables looked like they just were freshly picked. Yes, I am very impressed with Food 4 Less and I will stop there on my next visit to the airport.

Great prices. Good food. And they have some stuff you can't find anywhere else. Shop here for what you can't find at Trader Joe's right next door.

Food 4 Less has always been, and continues to be, a great place to shop for any sized grocery needs. The food is fresh and the prices can't be beat. This particular store is open 24/7. Now that's convenient! I wholeheartedly recommend Food 4 Less.

It's a pretty typical grocery store. This one is clean, seems well stocked, employees are visible if you need to ask for anything. Overall pleasant to shop here.

NOT "Food 4 Less" anymore. Example, $3.99 for whole broccoli at Food 4 less; $3.09 for trimmed heads at Trader Joe's next door.

Terrible shift manager. I had to go through hoops just to get a .50 cents coupon refunded to me . Never had problem with Ralph's their sister company. Will never go back to that store again. She kept on telling me to calm down when I have to wait when she's just in front of me. She should be fired! Customer is always right!

The prices beat Von's certainly but the staff (especially at night) need people skills training asap. I live in SLO... not homeless yet I'm treated like I'm under their eyes I mean literally followed around the store and questioned "may I help you find anything?" More than once tonight alone I was under their thumb. Part of this shopping experience is the not needing a clerk to help and allow me to decide if and when I do. It would be the more experienced employees whom ask and ask.Give me a brake....The store itself is clean and stocked.Keep a restroom always open.I don't steal but if I have to use one by all means frisk me down.I give this store barly three stars.Because people get hungry and sometimes they have to pee between 9pm and 8am and not only when a manager is on duty.

I like our SLO Food 4 Less. It's good for basics... Meat, dairy, produce, rice, beans, pasta, canned goods, cereals, cleaning stuff. Beer, wine, liquor. That's about it. Good prices for big families and people on a budget.

I love going to Food 4 Less. They have loads of vegetables and fruits, and sometimes amazing deals on them. It is kind of a discount supermarket of sorts. They have system of taking you around the store by the way the aisles are set up and rooting you out through the registers with you bagging your own groceries. There are few employees and no baggers. They have a butcher area so the meets are very nice. The first time I came here I felt put off by the way that it was set up but over time I have come to really appreciate this store. I enjoy going here and the prices are exceptional. They also have quite a few Hispanic type foods like tomatillos.

The food might be cheaper? But when they have 12 check stands and only 2 or three cashier's checking . The lines are long and the cashier's are slow it makes it not worth shopping there.Best to go after 10 pm. And they need a face lift a color change that borring yellow black and warehouse look the same o same o it doesn't seem like a great place to work black uniforms windbreaker? Ice cold ownership!

I've only gone to Food 4 Less a few times. From my limited experience, it has been an okay place to get groceries. It has a wide selection of items so I could get my entire list from there.Someone had given me the impression that groceries would be cheaper here. From what I had noticed, some items were a few cents cheaper than what they would have been from Ralph's. I haven't gone through the trouble to do an exact comparison.

Many of the prices here are higher than Trader Joe's next door, or other markets in town, and you have to bag your own. They do have good produce, which is why they get three stars instead of two.
