Fresh & Easy

I miss this place everyday.
I would usually go in when Franky was there, by far the most helpful young man.
Always answered any questions I had and always kept busy I hope he’s doing well.

Made a trip down just to realize that the store is closing and almost empty! There are just a few yogurts and bakery goods left. I just realized that some people have posted in the «tips» section that it is closing but you have to scroll pretty far down to see tips. So I’m trying to save people from an extra trip just to find no food left!

I would normally give this place 5 stars but since I’m sober I’m giving it 1.
I’ve been in a relationship with fresh and easy for 3 year and tonight was the first night at 11:04 they said «no wine after 11» how have I not known this rule?
I’m extremely upset. And will not be back again.
So yeah cool you’re fresh and affordable but NOT SO EASY.
Bye forever. There’s someone else. his name is RALPHS… And trader JOEs. But joe isn’t a trader.
You’re the trader.

It’s a solidly good mini grocery store with quality prepared foods and staples. While not quite as good as Trader Joe or Sprouts — it’s huge advantage is being open an hour later than those other two.

Came to this store as part of a work assignment. My first impression was I was happy they had their own parking lot available.
Upon walking in, I noticed how small it is. I realized then that this located was smaller because it is an Express Location.
I really liked their prices and selections. It’s a self checkout store so if you prefer a human ringing you up, skip this place.
The attendants were all friendly and helpful. Prices are the selling point if you’re deciding to shop at fresh and easy.

I should start by saying I’ve never supported this company and I’ve been careful to never go to one of their stores. I finally did stop at this location because it was on the way home and we needed some items for dinner.
I had heard prices were good. Not true. In fact I found the prices to be higher than at our local Ralphs.
I dislike this chain because they are non-​union and their automated payment systems are just another way to keep from hiring employees. I believe in having actual humans doing work and being paid for it. And because California law requires that you cannot do «self check-​out» if you are buying alcohol — and of course I picked up wine — they have to have an employee hit a code so you can check out. But their entire system is based on not hiring people. I cannot support that.
I also thought their prices would be low enough to justify their argument that they locate in places that are under-​served by traditional grocery stores. Their prices are NOT lower than traditional grocery stores. In fact, they’re higher and they offer less choices.
This place in fact just proved what I already thought about F&E… a company taking advantage of under-​served communities and trying to find a way to avoid hiring employees and not paying them union wages. I will never ever visit another one of their stores and I regret the $ 13.52 I spent there.

Fairly small and a bit pricey on some items, but works well when in a pinch as there really aren’t many other grocery stores in the neighborhood. Can often find some surprisingly good deals on some products ($ 1 bottles of wine!!! Great for parties!). Place is clean, staff is friendly. Quick to get in and out of!

I like going here it’s near my house I don’t get anxious since there
isn’t much interaction with anybody just a simple ”hello”.
Reason I have given 3 stars is they don’t serve many options for
vegans/​vegetarians sandwich wise I remember buying a caprese
subs but they don’t sell those anymore so I was like okay that’s fine
i’ll just get the other non-​meat sandwich nope no just tuna and chicken
I tried asking around but there wasn’t any employees so I just left with
a Chia pod which by the way is very delicious.
I still come here for quick snacks it’s a great place if you’re on the go.

This review is based mostly towards the closing time of this F&E. I usually come here after the gym to get some high protein food. Customer service is always horrible around 10/​11pm, and I don’t know if the day crew is different, but the night staff sucks. No acknowledgment from any of the employees, they’re all running around carrying boxes and move through the aisles without saying «excuse me,» «pardon me,» «I’m sorry» — really? Sheesh. If it wasn’t open till midnight and didn’t serve quest bars, I’d avoid it.

I used to go here all the time, great location and prices are good, but I can’t stand the lady with the Dreads and attitude that works there. I specifically dont go there because of her. She is RUDE to all of the customers and she has a terrible attitude. She needs to be fired! I’ve heard her yell at 5 people including kids before, I’m not sure how she is still working there. I feel like I’m on an episode of Maury every time she’s working.

It still insults me as to how cheap things here are for organic and fresh compared to back home in Vancouver. I picked up some staples for some DIY meals back out our hostel for my best friend and I to prepare the last time we were in LA.

Considering the size of the store, there’s a surprising variety of food, snacks, ingredients, and prepared meal option… a nice mix of name brand items and Fresh & Easy brand items and the ice cream is always the most tempting… The store is clean and I appreciate the mass self-​checkout

I grab lunch here when I’m super busy and on the go. The prices are great and it’s simple/​fast.

It was pretty easy to get in and out of this place quickly. Good and bad no one acknowledged me, depending on the type of morning person you are, take it as you need.

For being an «Express» version, it has an incredible amount of selection. There’s a lot of stuff packed into this little location. I love that I can walk here easy on my lunch hour, swing by on my way to the office or drop by on my way home. The employees here are always cheerful and greet me with a smile. Store is always kept clean and items are most always kept stocked.

I got a bouquet of roses from Fresh and Easy for $ 18, and 10 hours later it had withered away. See the picture. I was so upset. How could flowers last less than a day? Do not buy flowers from this store. Complete waste of money. This store should be called Old and Expensive.

There’s only a few items I get from here.
Wish there were more organic fruits or foods other than just bananas.
I’m a big fan of the Noors lavash breads that do not contain preservatives. Keep more of that in stock!
The meats aren’t labeled nitrate free which is what I’m looking for.

Great small grocery store!
Visit it often. Always clean and workers are nice:)

There isn’t much to say about this place, other than it’s quick and convenient. The prices here seem a bit pricier than all of the other places in the neighborhood, and the selection is definitely limited. They do make their own generic products of the brand named stuff if you’re looking for alternatives.
I do like that they utilize their space effectively, maximizing product availability (for a small place anyways).
Parking is limited.

I accidentally left $ 50.00 in the checkout register when I went in to make a quick purchase and decided to get extra cash. Left with my purchase and completely forgot about the cash.
Once I realized my blunder, I quickly called and James who works there had realized what I had done and put the money in a safe place for me till I could get back to the store.
So many people could have taken it and not thought twice about it. But I’m so grateful for James who knew exactly what to do!
Fresh and Easy? James needs a raise!
