Great store. Always clean, well stocked, and friendly staff who is willing to help you find things. Meat and Produce always well stocked with fresh product and weekly specials. Quality of product for these departments is great, better than many other stores. Be careful, there is a smaller older female asian clerkagger with glasses; that needs to go back to school on filling bags. She slams everything into the bag such as breads on the bottom, can goods on top, and places all the heavy things in one bag, instead of spreading the load across all the bags, and protecting the delicate items. Yes I can say this because I used to be a cashier and bagged for my customers. When I tried to correct her she argued with me, while the cashier looked in amazement when I loaded the bag without having to looks where everything was being placed, yes the old school method. Faster, better filling of the bag. Next time she comes to blows with me, Im asking for the manager. I dont care if youre in a union or not, do what is right for the customer. Brings back repeat business. Last thing, for some reason the floors have settled, so every aisle has a slope towards the front of the store, so your cart will roll away from you. Hope this helps.

A fairly average supermarket with a byzantine underground parking lot and awkward outdoor lot. The underground lot is entered through poorly marked lanes - which often result in people driving in the exit or out the entrance. The lot is jointly shared with trash service area - so it quite stinky in addition to being dark. Just to add to the unpleasantness there are frequent car break-ins in the underground lot. The above ground lot has a odd layout much like a garden maze - which seems to provoke drivers to pull in and out of spaces impulsively. I recommend the Safeway on Claremont - until the Montclair district drags both of their supermarkets into the current decade - with better lighting; with better selection; with cleanliness.

This is an excellent Lucky Store with good service, a good selection of organics, and fairly well stocked. But, they loose two stars for price gouging the Montclair residents. The prices in this store compared to other nearby markets can be as much as 30% higher. (For example, a pound of ground turkey at Trader Joes is 3.99. Its $5 on sale or $5.99 regularly at Lucky.) Even the local store Garner Joes nearby is easily 25 to 30 percent cheaper on many items. I was told by an employer that the Montclair Lucky Store is the most profitable in their chain. Im not surprised. So we shop their for convenience and speed. But know your grocery bills will be higher here.

The staff is 90% great but the store itself is pretty run down. They have less than ten handbaskets (an employee told me this) so grab a cart if you can find one! And the store often has only one lane open. Ive actually never seen the self checkout open here. Its fine because there isnt another store in the neighborhood, but definitely not my first choice...Ever.

Customer service is lacking. Asked for a coconut sherbet and was told I dont know if we carry that. No assistance whatsoever. And they never have enough lanes open to accommodate the customers. Only go there if I cant find parking at safeway. Every time I go to lucky I remember why I go there as a last resort.

Underwhelming, as a grocery store. Is missing many items (including a liquor section). For its size its surprisingly under stocked. Limited selection on even the basics. Probably fine for last minute grocery runs, but drive to the lucky a few blocks away and get a much better option.

Oh lucky. I wished this place was a bit nicer. They seem to have the necessities but thats about it. Their organic section is up and coming but lacks some basics but could be due to seasonal issues. I want to be a fan of this place but it needs a little help.

Great food, Bad smell right when you walk in. They have a great selection and their staff is really nice but they suck at monitoring the fruits/vegetables. I was sorting through rotten tomatoes while a stock member was standing right next to me.

Great fullsize grocery store. Parking is confusing, but they built it to try and maximize the amount of cars they could hold. I avoid the rat race and just go to the roof where there is usually a lot of parking.

need more organics just not enough local customers buying!? They had great selection for a while then scaled it way back again! Would think being in such an affluent area there would be more demand.

Good Honey Dew melon today and generally good and varied produce. Knudsen low fat cottage cheese and Strauss nonfat Greek yoghurt. Nice market in the Montclair district of Oakland.

Only Two checkers. The 15 items or less lanes are automated and dont allow alcohol purchases. I waited in a twenty minute line to buy a bottle of wine. Wont go back.

Good sized Lucky, considering the small "village" type shopping area its located in. Parking is a little confusing, but go to the roof and theres plenty of space.

Good selection but high prices. Parking always avaliable but always tricky with older drivers and multiple parking levels. Always smells like fish.

Staples. Nothing gourmet. Parking lot is a nightmare. Better than the micro Safeway in Montclair.

Selection of brand names is sometimes limited. Devote a lot of space to in-house brands.

Like safeway, but different. An homage to 90s middle class America.

They need to improve the self checkout process. It is such a pain.
