The Willows Market - Menlo Park, California

Went there on a Sunday after picking my wife up at the airport in the early afternoon. Figured she hadn't eaten anything good in awhile so I had in mind Willows Market cause i remembered that they make a great tri-tip sandwich. After driving 20 minutes or so, we get in the place and the deli was closed. Ah bummer, my hopes and dreams of a savory treat for the wife crushed. So we opted to leave but on the way out noticed some blue berry biscuits in a package by the register and g4abbed them as to not walk away empty handed.

Got outside and tried to find another deli. Turns out they were all closed, and was not just my luck. What's up with this area I thought to myself.

Later that afternoon back home, we try out the biscuits with some good coffee. To my surprise and our pleasure, they were awesome. Buttery and satisfyingly rich blueberry flavor with a nice texture to it. Was perfect with the coffee.

BEST STORE!!! We come here all the time. They always seem to have what we need, and if not, they make sure to keep it in stock (or order it) for us. Friendly neighborhood place to come with a very large selection of foods and drinks (including top of the line alcohol) and more!!!

Fantastic local grocery store with higher end quality goods and a good selection of local and international food products. Nice and friendly people as well.

A very well-stocked neighborhood market, with plenty of hard-to-find food items, very high-quality meat, and a great selection of liquor. They also have a hot bar where they sell meat smoked onsite, and it's delicious. It's not a cheap market by any means, but it's still definitely well worth a visit or three.

Curly Pumptickler said if I set up a Freestanding gas powered Wishwagger for his wife he'd buy me lunch at The Willows Market! So....I said ..well, let's run the numbers, it 75 miles from Napa to Menlo Park, so that's 150 miles round trip, and my truck gets 10 mpg and fuel is 5 bucks a gallon...So...I tell him "You want me to spend $75 on fuel and spend 6 hours of my time working and driving for a $9.00 sandwich" Then he says...But it's The Willows Market Deli...the best deli in the south bay!
Well, what are friends for...and besides, he was right, the sandwiches were Amazing! ☆☆☆☆☆

My Son wanted to try this place for the first time. Extremely disappointed. Wanted to order a BBQ combo but for $27 opted for the brisket alone with two sides. The choices for the combo’s are very limited. For $19 we ordered the brisket. It came w/ a Disproportionately huge side of potato and macaroni salad with just about 3 ounces of brisket! I felt sick after having two spoons of the side dishes. A waste of $19 bucks! Called the Willow market, only to hear the person over the phone tell me that the food in the kitchen or whats on display looked ok and that it was prepared today.

Nice little grocery store packed to the rafters with groceries, supplies, a deli, and a wide selection of craft beer, good wine, and high-end liquor. I was definitely impressed by the scotch and whiskey selection. I got a sandwich from the board and it was done well, super fast. Staff were friendly locals and the Grateful Dead was playing when I walked in...
