  I like Oceana Market. One of the reasons being the proximity from home, but also because they have products that can't be found in a Safeway (or probably Walmart). The store is located in a medium sized shopping area that hosts one (or two?) bar(s), a dry cleaner, a place that sells tasty bubble teas and more. Parking is always easy. When entering the shop for the first time it might take a bit to get around. The vegetable and fruit area is well maintained and carries a wide variety of produce. They also are fresh and presented in an inviting way. The deli section is a bit cramped, but that doesn't mean the products don't meet expectations. The Wine and Beer selection is bigger than I would expect in such a store. I'm always overwhelmed when I want to buy something there. Generally the products and shelf can be hard to find. I must have missed the orientation or just don't understand the concept. The staff is very friendly and always ready to help me when I ask for something. They support Apple Pay and Android Pay, which is very convenient for someone like me who forgets his wallet at home on occasion. The reason I don't give 5 stars (and lean to 3) is the disappointing coffee corner. The lack of hygiene (often there are flies) in this corner and uninviting setup is a shame. It could be so nice to sit down for a coffee. The operator of the coffee corner doesn't meet the standard set by the rest of the store.

  Pros: Very good selection of gluten-free foods. Despite, the small space, the gluten-free selection rivals Whole Foods. Cons: The produce section could use a bit more lighting, it is rather dark. I have purchased expensive food here and later realized it was expired - so make sure to check expiration dates!
