Market Hall Foods

Today was my first time going in to this gourmet food market, even though I have driven by it numerous times This market carries high quality foods including freshly made pasta (I saw them actually making it, and the prices are less than another store that makes their own). Cheese lovers--if you live in the East Bay you got to see what they have--an impressive bunch of cheeses. I know that they are expensive, but if you are in to gourmet foods, you got to check out what they carry. Mid-January, 2022, we had to wait in line outside the store (which I appreciated). There was hand sanitizer available, and they don't let too many people in at one time. Tip: be sure and take a number if you want to buy any ready made hot dishes to save time.

I ordered online, so have not been to the store. Terrific experience. Easy to find products online, no issues ordering. Stellar customer service. I wanted something that was sold out and they called me to let me know when it would be available. I ordered Mariage Frères Paris Breakfast. it came quickly. I also ordered Russian Breakfast when it was available and it came right away. I would recommend them for a great selection of products and quick service!

A bit pricey but great product. Bread from the bakery was crusty on the outside with a tasty interior as one would expect. Got a quiche from the market which made for a great dinner with a nice green salad. Grilled some delicious lamb chops from the butcher as well. I am rarely disappointed with my purchases from the various vendors.

Incredibly well appointed spot for the Gourmand in all of us including specialty items from all over Europe, the Middle East, and Asia that appealed to the particular palette of the East Bay, a Crossroads of culinary Adventure, the staff that know just about everything about food. Luckily for us they also make some of the best sandwiches in the East bank, and are right next to not only a great pasta shop but also a great Butchery, and great produce store. It was at the store that I learned how to make beef wellington with the help of one of the workers there, and I am in their debt. This place has been here forever, and I hope it stays here forever

Lovely place for a great neighbourhood like Rockridge. I live in Oakland Lake Merritt area but have come across this place couple times while in Rockridge so finally gave it a try. Lots of pasta options and also available by the pound (loose) for approx. 5$ a pound. I honestly found prices to be quite expensive here compared to Wholefoods where you can get organic pasta for less than 2$ per pound. Definitely seemed good quality and like I said, LOTS of different pasta options! I honestly like to support locally made stuff because that's the whole point of being environmentally friendly, right? :P Many things in this store are imported, which is great but I wouldn't come here just to buy stuff and bring it back home to Lake Merritt. Including the 4$ return BART ticket, I would end up paying a lot for groceries so not worth it for me personally on that front. We picked up couple different cheeses, cold cuts salamis (4 different types), couple jams and dark chocolate that had a good price tag on it - happy me :) I was happy to see they had Bulgarian and Greek feta available loose by the pound and not super expensive - these are the stuff that's hard to find and would make me come back for. I wish this store was closer to my house to make it worth the trip here. Definitely recommend for all those around the area - great selections of cheese, meat, cold cuts, wine, pasta etc and a lovely bakery section and coffee and their restaurant.
