Rancho Market

This place is awesome!!!
The fruits and veggies are always fresh and it’s impossible to find one that’s not in good condition.
Whenever I need help I just ask any of the workers and they are super friendly and helpful. A few of them are actually trilingual.
There is no parking but I’m sure there is no harm in parking in the empty Walgreens parking lot ;]
Fresh produce at great prices is what I’m all about!

rancho market is on the corner of foothill and fruitvale i remember for many years this was a drug store back in the 80s and early 90s now it, s rancho market it, s a cool market the only thing is it, s always crowded because the bus stop is right in front also it, s very hard to find parking they also have a cool carneceria in the back…

Decent little shop. No parking, just street. Fairly Friendly staff here.
Open Daily 8am-​9pm.
Has a small meat market ran separately (i.e. you pay at the meat counter for meat, and other items at the front). I got some boneless skinless chicken breasts for under $ 2.50/pound last weeek. It was fresh and the other meat at the counter looked pretty good as well.
They have an entire long isle for produce. Pretty decent selection. As seems to be the case for many small produce shops, they have an entire space filled with near rotting (well, definitely over ripe, wrinkly, soft) bell peppers. This is a giant pet peeve for me! Just get rid of them! I think it’s better to have a slightly smaller selection of produce choices than to have some that are compost ready! Other than this bit of unacceptability, the produce section was pretty good, not just picked from my garden fresh by any means, but the farmers market near me hasn’t opened for the season yet, so I’ll just have to tough it out a few more weeks.
Also have lots of other canned and bottled foods, lots of Mexican grocery choices. Bread choices were not great for me, but there is a small! bakery section of the typical mexican breads and pastries. Packaged loaves were the wonder bread white types. No pita, no «real bread» but, I can do without.
They man at the front even spoke to me in Spanish, I’m impressed I could understand and function! :)
