Market of Choice

I love this Market of Choice location for a variety of reasons.
First, the handicap parking is super close to the door, and easy to get in and out of the parking area. When I take my mother shopping with me, this is a huge advantage.
The produce, meat and dairy sections are great. They seem to have more choices in the ice cream department as well. They also carry the peppermint oil I use for my headaches too. They have great sales on Umpqua dairy products fairly often.
The employees are always friendly and helpful. There seems to be a lot more employees at this location versus the one off Franklin Blvd. so you don’t have to walk the entire store to find someone if you have a question.
The fact they have a better selection of products, my peppermint oil, and good employees is what keeps me returning to this location.

Their Pizza by the slice is spendy but good. The crust has a nice crunch, but is very light and thin, but chewy. In my opinion, you are better off getting a whole pie. it only takes about 10 minutes. And is great for making friends.
One of the best pies in town.

I’ve been a Market of Choice fan since I moved here. I used to like all their stores equally until today when this location made my day. I like a great salad bar for lunch. This location has the best one. Lots of fresh, organic components and a chopped kale salad are definitely fantastic, but the salad bar wins for me because of these absolutely amazing Mediterranean beets. I just love them so very much. I looked for them on the shelf with the other jars/​cans of beets but didn’t see them. When I casually asked the very nice person at the register about them, she went out of her way to find out the source of these crazy good beets, after she mimicked my yum face btw. The manager told me that these beets come in giant cans which is why they are not on the shelf. Then he took my name and phone number so he could find out if I could get my hands on reasonably sized portions of these beets. Today, I got a call from the market letting me know that they are still working on this for me. Wow! A few days had gone by and I didn’t really expect them to follow up just because I was already surprised that they would be willing to try at all. The fact that they called me to tell me that the source is closed for 4^th of July and that they will call them again for me on Monday is simply incredible. I never expected any grocery store to go out of their way for such a small request like this. Way to go!
I know people say they are too pricey compared to other chain grocery stores, and while I tend to spend more here than in other grocery stores this size, it’s really about getting your money’s worth. This store (and the others) stock food from your town. You can stock your entire kitchen with local products that may cost a little more but keep your money in your town and in the pockets of your neighbors. Plus, they are willing to go out of their way to get me some damn good beets. Oh happy day.

Not usually my type of grocery store. I mainly come because they have an awesome deli and the beer selection is amazing. Really close to where we live and I don’t have to drive far to a bottle shop.

Oh Market of Choice, why are you so good yet so expensive?
Alrighty, I have some praises and some gripes about this place.
Praise 1: very close to where i live. If i need something on my way home from work I can go in and get it without trekking all the way to Safeway.
Gripe 1: this place has narrow aisles!
Praise 2: Stumptown coffee!
Gripe 2: The restroom is in need of repairs. I went in to use it one time and discovered that the toilet was very close to coming loose from the floor it was supped to be secured to.
Praise 3: Their bakery and deli section are very convenient! I use the deli sometimes when i want to add a pasta to something I’m making.
Gripe 3: No rewards program for those who want to save a buck.

Great selection of Oregon craft brews. I spent nearly 45 minutes looking and deciding. My only issue, was that quite a few of the IPAs I looked at were way out of date, ie more than 6 months old. With IPAs, you want fresh. That way the hop profiles aren’t faded. If you do go here, check the dates on the IPAs.

Yuck. The Sheldon-​area Market of Choice pales in comparison to the South Eugene location, which isn’t exactly my favorite spot in Eugene. It’s about half the size, narrow aisles, wilted produce, and some of the employees seem kinda sketchy.
If I lived near here, I’d consider doing my regular shopping at (shudder) Safeway.

The BEST Market of Choice! Everytime I am in this store I can count on finding what I need…
Customer service is the best! I have not met a cranky person here… I live by the Market of Choice on Greenacres but I would drive to Willakenzie whenever I can… everyone is really helpful and friendly.
The bakery, ah! what can I say? It makes sticking to a diet extremely hard :) today I discovered Pumpkin muffins! Somewhat healthy and to die for!
I recommended this particular Market of choice for all your grocery needs and more.

I’m no devoted fan of natural foods, but I’ve got to hand it to this place for stocking Stumptown Coffee, Sisters Coffee Co., Wandering Goat Coffee, and a couple other good companies. I’m quite pleased.

Hmmm, I feel like chocolate-​covered smores and an icy, cold Santa Cruz organic raspberry lemonade. How ’bout some sushi from the hot deli? Stumptown Coffee, anyone? But wait, I need trash bags, too, and toilet paper. Where can a girl go to get all her unconventional and conventional items at one stop? Enter, Market of Choice, formerly known as Price Chopper, which I used to affectionately refer to with a karate chop of my hand, and stubbornly keep calling by its previous name. Anytime I’m in Oregon, I make it a point to go here and get all the organic and novelty items I’ve never had any luck finding anywhere else. But unlike a lot of organic and all-​natural markets, PC also carries the normal, boring stuff like Lysol Wipes or feminine needs, so you don’t have to make another trip to somewhere else. And the price is right! They have an exquisite beer selection, six-​packs and twenty-​twos and their bulk selection is better than (dare I say it?) Whole Foods. They have everything a girl (or whatever you are) needs…
