Frazier Farms Market

Cashiers are always super friendly, especially with my one year old. But the employees who work behind the juice/​coffee bar, and meat dept, could use a little pick me up. One of the girls who gathers the carts actually huffed one day when I was buckling my daughter into a cart, and she was wanting to put carts away. I get it, customer service isn’t the most rewarding job, but at least pretend you want to be there, for the customers sake. I’ve been going less and less because of this issue. I would give five stars if employees were more friendly. Produce is always great and prices aren’t bad at all.

Fresh Natural turkeys that were reserved for Thanksgiving and plump and delicious. Wonderful vegetables and fruits and a varied array of items, all high quality and reasonably priced. Warm and helpful staff made for a coming-​back-​again customer experience.

I am pretty pleased with this compared to Whole Foods and Sprouts. I love supporting a local too!

Seems like just another Henry’s, Sprouts or Trader Joe’s to me. I’m giving FF a 3.5 stars because they do have a clean store, it’s very organized and of course healthier items. Their prices aren’t that bad and some of the employees are nice and helpful.
I’ve been to their deli section a few times and the guys there were very helpful and even offered to give me a sample. Then another time there was some girls one was pretty nice but the other one seemed like she was having a bad day.
To me if the customer service isn’t right I will most likely shop else where like Cream of the Crop. Even though they are a little more expensive they are nice and helpful.

Very glad we found this place. We have traveled to Oceanside and have stayed at condos for the last 3 years for our anniversary and this place has wonderful prepared food in their deli that could be reheated. Their classic potato salad is the best we have ever gotten from a deli anywhere else. Good selection of foods, meat market butchers were helpful in helping us to select cuts and how to cook them. If we go back to the area next year we now know where to shop. Forgot to mention the chicken Christmas Enchiladas in the deli are fabulous!

Great store. Good variety. And good customer service. Very easy to find, and is quality over quantity.

I spend almost $ 200 a week at Frazier farms for my family it’s worth every penny. The food is always fresh I get a lot of pre made meals their deli is top notch and their produce is always fresh. If you’re looking for a healthier alternative than a regular grocery store I highly recommend it.

We visited Frazier Farms Market while on vacation in Oceanside. We rented a house and did the grocery trip here. It’s a nice sized store and things were fairly easy to find. The associates were friendly and helpful. My complaints are mostly with the Frazier Farm store brand foods which I bought because they were a better price and I hoped they were fresher with better quality ingredients. I was wrong.
The whole wheat bagels were doughy and gross. The cream cheese was a strange consistency and didn’t taste like cream cheese, weird. The hummus was literally like vomit. The pre-​sliced cantaloupe was rancid and starting to ferment. The only item we did enjoy was the potato salad we got from the deli, it was delicious.
Prices on many items were absurd, but I guess that’s typical in your «whole foods”-esque grocery store. ($ 15 for a jar of juice. REALLY??!)
Locals may love their little store, but if you’re just stopping by I recommend the Ralphs across the street.

Fantastic. Simply perfect.
Big enough to have everything you could want, without being too big and feeling like a Costco style warehouse. Meat and produce selections are all fresh, cheese selection is bountiful, and the fresh salad bar is perfect for a 1-​off meal or a pre-​made Sunday dinner.
They could probably use a bit of an improved check-​out experience, but it’s a great compromise between the big guys, and the ‘too boutique to have what you need’ groceries.

The new place on Oceanside Bvld. is HUGE!
went in to just get Suja juice and got lost with amazement of what it all has to offer.
Its like the Whole Foods in Encinitas but here in Oceanside. The veggies that were on Sale were Obviously a good price yet the Meat department is a lil pricey. but hey good stuff is never cheap right?
Will try there Deli next time and I did like their Make ur own Salad bar which was cool. I came later in the day so the stocks were a lil low but will try earlier in the morning… They have 99Cent Macrons in their Bakery will try that next time.
Friendly Staff and very attentive.

Lame!!! Security wanted to have my wife arrested when my kids were acting badly. She overlooked some tomatoes in the cart at checkout and called her a thief for less than a dollar.
We’re a upper middle class family in Fire Mountain and even used to travel to the Vista location to buy their food bc we loved the great prices, quality food and selection. Not anymore, will do biz with Sprouts and Trader Joe’s moving forward.
Management should fire this jackass for being so rude to my family. This is no way to treat decent people.

Frazier Farms= Fascist Farms. I walked in last eve with an medicinal oil that was recommended to me by an employee at the vitamin section costing almost $ 30. I was feeling good… I purchased a new vehicle earlier in the day and finally could bring the vitamin bottle in for an exchange. I entered the store and all of the cashiers were busy and I decided to go to the vitamin section. no one was at the counter. I found the replacement bottle on the shelf there was only one left. I looked around for an employee to help me. I turned around and there was a man there but oddly he looked away. I saw his name tag and I asked, «Do you work here?» He said ‚“Yes”. I showed him my vitamin bottle and the fact that the GLASS eye dropper had broken inside of it – a packaging defect. I asked if I could exchange it for a safer, usable one. Then another man – the one who originally recommended and sold it to me, came running up and said he could only give me 25% off without a receipt. I said ok and continued to shop and when I went to the check out line I asked if the manager could be called over to verify the discount… then 5 different men surrounded me. Two of the men looked completely BLOTTO. definitely high on drugs or something. One man’s eyes were completely blood shot. It felt unsafe we were all female… there was a female at the register and a female with me behind me at the checkout stand. The man started booming out loud about some robbery that had happened yesterday or some crap –as if all women should be punished for it. I showed him the broken glass inside the bottle with the packaging and safety seal STILL on it. I just wanted a safe product if I splurged $ 30 on it. Definately not liking the PR in Frazier Farms I hope they fold and get out of my neighborhood. I had just spent $ 30 on veggies while in there too! and I still have to go home and filter glass particles out of my medicinal oil vitamin bottle. Very very depressing.
My name is Robbie Hill and I am the Store Director at the Frazier Farms in Oceanside. I am terribly sorry to hear about your experience here last week. We strive everyday to provide world class customer service, in everything we do. Clearly, in this instance, we have fallen well short of that goal. I’d like to address this with all the parties involved, because this behavior is not something we condone at Frazier Farms. Would you be able to provide me with a little more detail so that I can thoroughly investigate this incident? What time were you in on the 13^th, and do you happen to remember any names. Also, do you remember which register you checked out on? Again, I am truly sorry for the lack of care we showed you last week. I can assure you the next time you are in, you will have a much better shopping experience. Thank you for your feedback and continued support. You have made us a better store because of it.
Sincerely,
Robbie Hill
Store Director
Mr Store Director, I believe you have security cameras at Frazier Farms that should have recorded the incident… I began to clearly describe the employees involved that evening and as this may help you in your management of personnel … it does not change the experience for me. I would feel even less desire to enter Frazier Farms to do any shopping knowing that I had named names of employees — per your request… that likely would still be working there. I am sorry that Frazier Farms fails to provide decent customer service. My chief concern is getting my oregano oil bottle replaced before the glass dropper causes an injury. Asking that I adjudicate further on this incident in my opinion— is NOT demonstrative of «world class customer service».

Comments: Good selection, there is no Whole Foods in Oceanside so this takes its place. Pizza Port cans here were sold at the same price for sale at the brewpub– nice. Hess cans, Two Hearted cans, Big Sky, Caldera, some other oddities. Food here is extensive and high quality. Can get specialty fish, seafood, meats, cooking and cleaning products hard to find elsewhere. Frozen whole octopus, for instance, I’ve never seen for sale anywhere else.

Frazier Farms is legit. It’s definitely the best market we have in our neighborhood. The food is fresh, the staff is nice, and they have a great alcohol selection. My only complaint is this sandwich my roommate received today. There is meat on one side of the bread and cheese on the other. What’s up with that? Who makes a sandwich like this? He also bit into a piece of paper that was inside said sandwich. When hitting up the Deli, make sure you get an experienced sandwich builder, otherwise your lunch will be fucked.

Great market for cheap, fresh, quality produce. A convenient place to buy inexpensive, great tasting wine, specialty cheese and a lot of other delicious food.
Just don’t buy an iced mocha.
I tried to buy an iced mocha today and the person who attempted to make it had no clue how to complete the task. This person was 1.) not trained to perform the duties of specialty coffee drink maker, 2.) fell asleep during the specialty coffee drink training, or 3.) stoned.
I walked up to an empty counter and asked the non-​busy clerk to make me an iced mocha. Fifteen bumbling minutes later I witnessed her pouring hot coffee over a cup of ice before handing me the WARM iced mocha WITH NO ICE.
With the warm iced coffee in hand, I asked «isn’t this supposed to be an iced mocha?» to which the reply was «oh.let me put some ice in there». I replied «you already put ice in it… just before you poured hot coffee over it».
Duh.
Today’s lesson learned: buy specialty coffee drinks at Starbucks.

One of our favorite places to get produce.
Like it more than the Frazier Farms in Vista, and definitely more than Sprouts.

They have so many different varieties of fresh squeezed smoothies, fresh squeezed orange juice and yummy sushi and an amazing salad bar:)

This grocery store is amazing. It’s got a fantastic selection, doesn’t feel cramped like Trader Joes, and their prices for high quality produce, meats, and sundry pantry items are unmatched. It’s like Whole Foods quality and selection without the Whole Paycheck prices *and* it’s the closest thing to a European grocery store that I have found. I was impressed with their selection of cheese, foie gras, pâté, and wines. I love their personal care area — they have difficult to find skin products (like hyaluronic acid), essential oils, health products and vitamins, etc.

I feel like choosing a grocery store is an important decision. Make the wrong choice, and you might end up having to make another stop on the way home, or scrapping your recipes plans mid-​shopping trip.
COOLNESS
Since I like eating healthy (fresh fruits, veggies, coconut stuff) AND have food allergies to deal with, I often need what many people would consider «obscure» ingredients. This place carries more DAIRY-​FREE, GLUTEN-​FREE, VEGAN, and VEGETARIAN options than I need. I find myself exploring new worlds of healthy alternatives and fair-​trade products I feel good about buying.
The produce always looks fresh and there are often good sales. Check out the bulk bins for stuff like nutritional yeast, nuts and spices.
NOT-​AS-​COOLNESS
The other day I needed a bunch of healthified stuff and we were out of tin foil. DO NOT COME HERE TO BUY TIN FOIL First off, I’m pretty sure they only carry 1 kind, which had all been either purchased or stolen by one of the many crackheads in the neighborhood… jk…well, kinda — it’s a pretty bad area.
While they have good specials (pick up an ad on your way in the store), it’s also very easy to walk out of here spending bouquoo bucks if you aren’t careful.

I was very sad to see Earthgrown go, but I do love Frazier Farms. The closest Frazier Farms we had was in Vista prior to this location opening. And since Ralphs closed down the street on Oceanside Blvd, I have been looking for a replacement grocery store.
Frazier Farms is great for produce, bulk items, meats, and deli/​bakery items. If you are looking for name brand foods and snacks, it is best to go to a regular grocery store. However, with that being said, Frazier Farms has top quality foods. I LOVE their deli and bakery departments. They have so many wonderful dips, cheeses, breads, and desserts galore. I stopped in on a whim before Thanksgiving to throw together a nice little appetizer spread, and Frazier Farms had everything I was looking for. The home made dips and sauces are TO DIE for. I will specifically go back just for that reason alone.
I’ve never had a problem with parking and the staff is always very patient and helpful. Frazier Farms is a nice addition to the neighborhood and I sure hope it is here to stay!
