Vons

Bakery needs a new cook their walnut apple pies $ 10.99 are under baked. This is the second time I returned a pie because it taste like dough. The plus side the return process was quick and simple!

Gave the pharmacy another try, for whatever reason these folks cannot adhere to their posted schedule. 9:04 and gates are still down and not a pharmacist in sight.

They get a star just for their General Tso’s boneless wings at the wing bar. seriously addictive! Very clean store excellent bakery, deli and flower department. Great weekly deals! They also have a Starbucks!

Best grocery store in Palmdale I think. Been shopping here for years and have no complaints. It’s all ways clean and stocked and the staff is great. There is allways a manager or someone available on the floor if you need help or can’t find something and the checkers are all ways friendly and engaging.

Customer service is definitely not what they are known for. Some of the employees are to comfortable with there bad ways. The Managers are not courteous and quite rude. Especially in the customer service department by the cleaners. Very inconsistent with the there times. And very rude.

If you need anything Organic (produce and products) this is your grocery. The fish selection is alright– I’d call first to make sure they have the wild-​caught fish you’re looking for (sometimes Albertsons beats them in the fish dept selection.) Tremendous customer service every time I’ve visited.

so what is with the low voltage lighting in this place, they hiding something? seems all the vons have gone to the old restaurant style light levels… so you couldn’t see what you were eating was their thing, whats Vons’s? also, what is with that flippin augmented «Club» card??? for losers who could never get into a club before?
i THINK this MAY be the best place to shop for groceries, but I cant tell!

This is the best Vons in the AV, it’s laid out thoughtfully and the Starbucks is tucked in a corner away from the middle of the entrance unlike the Vons on Ave L and 40^th St W.
This Vons has fresh in-​store made sushi (which is great!) and a large Lamb selection year-​round. The organic vegetable section is huge, and there’s a large selection of fresh organic herbs.
While the other Vons mentioned has a larger selection of ready-​made foods and is my go-​to for the Olive Bar, this one wins by a decent margin.

Nancy in the pharmacy is the sweetest, most helpful person. She’s always so personable and friendly even if they are busy. It always brightens my day to see that there are still wonderful people out there who can be so helpful, even when it comes to helping choose the correct over the counter medication for your symptoms.
This whole store is amazing with customer service. Everywhere you look there is always someone with a smile asking if you are finding everything ok. Always look forward to doing my weekly shopping here.
Best part is they are close to my house! :)

Not as big of a selection as Stater Bros or Albertson’s nearby. Very clean store & nice Starbucks & floral section though. Prices are so funny here though, how do you charge double the price of items than different grocery store right down the street. Ridiculous! I will stick to other places.

While this Vons location gets the job done when I’m visiting family in Palmdale (the only reason I ever go out to the AV), sometimes the selection and long lines at check out become annoying. Some of the employees are also curt and unfriendly. Others are friendly and provide great customer service. It’s truly a hit or miss!
One other note: This shopping center always has some sketchy activity going on. I couldn’t pinpoint one issue, but there are usually some bizarre people hanging out, and the parking lot can get dirty with trash. It just gives me the «jitters». I know Vons can’t really control this, but still!

Very long lines every Sunday morning. The manager on duty seems to not care about customers or service.

Great grocery store. Very clean, up-​to-​date and their alcohol selection is the best I’ve ever seen in a grocery store.

I love this vons! great workers that have been there for years. they even make great sandwich’s in the deli! the only thing is sometimes they dont have enough cashiers.

If you can walk through the entire store and avoid being asked if you are finding everything ok, then congratulations, you must be a ninja!
The customer service at this Vons surpasses all other Vons that I have ever been to. Everyone from the Butcher, to the florists, to the pharmacy, to the cashiers, are all top notch.
I especially like the music that they play, it always puts me in a good mood and makes my shopping experience more enjoyable.
The most rewarding thing about shopping here is the amount of money I save using my Vons Club Card or whatever it’s called. Every time I get to the check out, my savings is always about 30% and that makes a really big difference to me.
My only complaint is that sometimes its really crowded all of the sudden and it takes a while for them to adapt to the number of cashiers necessary, so it can take a while. Especially if some A55 in front of you has a bunch of food stamps and coupons, which is just a Palmdale problem anywhere you go.

I alwasys come in this store on my way to work I run in to grab a snack or starbucks. Its always very clean, and the staff have been really nice and sweet. They have sushi so thats a plus. Its a really nice store, plain and simple.

Here’s my problem with this Vons: either they don’t know what an express lane is, or they don’t care. Sure, we’re all been in situations where the person ahead of us sneaks in a few extra items (or we’ve been the guilty party). And really, if I was about to complain about Vons letting too many people get in a «15 or under lane» with 17 items, I should probably be kicked off Unilocal for being the world’s biggest Negative Nancy. However, in the month and a half that I’ve been back in the A.V., I’ve had a number of experiences indicating that Vons should just get rid of their express lanes. I like telling stories, so here’s the most egregious express lane violation:
I went in post-​workout to buy a refreshing drink, figuring that I could be in and out in just a few minutes. I took my one item to the express lane, and noticed the lady in front of me had far more than the suggested «15 items or fewer.» I went to the other lane to see that that lady in front of me had quite a few items as well (though less than express lady). Eventually, I hopped into the lane I was avoiding because I thought that it was closed and made a guy work past his shift to ring up my one item. While paying, I noticed that the express lady actually has so many items that the register cannot ring up anymore and the manager had to override the system to allow the cashier to continue ringing things up (if you’ve ever watched Extreme Couponing, I’m sure you’ve seen this happen). I guess this meant the manager was totally cool with someone with over 100 items taking up the express lane.
A grocery store is a grocery store and there isn’t much that could affect the rating of one (or really make one worth rating at all). This Vons is super close to my house and I normally use it, but I don’t think I’ll be dropping in for just a few items again. Unfortunately, that’s pretty much all I do at grocery stores.

I love my local Vons. They always have better prices on Organic fruits and vegetables than TJs or Whole Wheatery. It’s never crowded and I’m usually in and out fast.

This is the best chain grocery store location in the Antelope Valley. When I walk in, I’m transported to a Safeway in the Bay Area. I swear there’s some sort of transporter device or a vortex in the doorway. The only difference is that the sourdough here just isn’t as good.
Their bakery is delish. The cakes are yummo. They bag up the leftover sandwich rolls from the deli and sell them in packs of six — makes perfect garlic bread at home.
The produce is second only to Ben’s Corner (see my other review) for freshness; although Von’s has a wider selection.
Everytime I visit their sushi chef is making up something fresh. I love grabbing a California roll with cool filling, room temp rice and still crisp nori.
The deli has some higher end products.
They have a pretty big selection of German and Jewish food. (I think Best of Europe in Quartz HIll carries more German stuff, but Vons is more convenient when you’re doing the weekly shopping.) The asian section could be a little bigger.
I hope, hope, hope that this place stays open. (The Vons at 10^th and J in Lanscatter just closed.)

This the best grocery store I’ve found since moving to the AV. The service is always great! I don’t even have to wait in line at the deli for 20 minutes (goodbye Ralphs!). Their bakery makes deeeelicious croissants and jalapeño cheese bread. The meat and produce is always fresh, and I don’t feel like I’m getting totally overcharged like I do at the Albertson’s down the street.
My one complaint? They don’t sell udon noodles in the asian food section! what the hell…
