I like lazy acres, 6/16/2010
Reviewer: Steve Lord
from Santa Barbara, CA
Ive shopped there for five years for almost all my food. THe produce is fresher and better than any organic food market Ive ever been toa and IVe been to about 25 of them. freshest than Whole food anywhere Ive been in the state including here. Just check the difference in freshness in the romain lettuce at Lazy Acres vs Whole food, you can knock a man out with the Lazy Acres Romaine.
IF there is a difference between Lazy Acres before Supervalue, I dont know what it is, I dont see it. Whole food too has so many non organic items even in produce much higher percent than Lazy. Prices are slightly higher at Whole Food too.

we dont want the albertson's version of lazy acres, 2/13/2010
Reviewer: Sad to lose the real Lazy Acres
from Santa Barbara, CA
Each time I go now since Alberston's (Supervalu)bought it, there are changes for the worst. Don't think we don't notice. As time goes on, those things I need to drive out of my way & pay a little bit extra for, become less and less & I presume as time goes on, there will be nothing special about Lazy Acres. If you want to drive customers away, keep it up. I'm sure the underlying drive is now all about cost cutting. Please just keep Lazy Acres the way it was ORIGINALLY. As for the many people that agree with me, I wish we could plan a boycot just to show them what the Lazy Acres'customers REALLY want. If you keep it up Supervalu (aka cheep a*s crap that is all about having the highest profit margin & is sold at just about every other store), I hope you run the business into the ground. SELL IT TO SOMEONE OTHER THAN A FACELESS NAME DRIVEN ONLY BY THE ALLMIGHTY$$$$$$$$$$$$ SUCH AS YOURSELF.

Disappointing Holiday Meal, 12/26/2009
Reviewer: karolyn
from Santa Barbara, CA
Decided not to cook this year and ordered family meal from Lazy Acres. It was supposed to be dinner for 6 -- turkey, gravy, stuffing, mixed vegetables, sweet and mashed potatoes and cranberry. There was an over abundance of potatoes, and not much of anything else. The turkey was very, very dry and everything was so over-salted!
I knew going in it would not be like freshly cooked at home, but this was very disappointing. A friend got her meal at Gelson's and said it was wonderful (especially the turkey).

What A Fabulous Supermarket
Reviewer: David Wright
from London UK
I love coming here - not tried the sandwiches, but the food looks fantastic - as good as any gourmet butcher we have here in London.

Really gone down hill now that Albertson's owns it
Reviewer: Marla S Wilson
from Santa Barbara, CA
The deli has really gone down hill- flavors are bland often prepared sandwiches are stale- I am really glad they will have some competition from whole foods soon.. When they were locally owned the service was better the food was better. The prices are HIGH which is ok for primo quality- but this is not. Unfortunately for Santa Barbarans there are only a few clean supermarkets here. They need to consider having a chef look at the offerings and clean up the presentation, revamp the recipes.

FLABBAGUMPTUOUS-a made up word meaning the best in all areas
Reviewer: Olivia
from Santa Barbara
Welll, when we moved here, we had to live in a hotel very close to Lazy Acres. All I can say is, it is amazing. They have the best prepared food in Santa Barbara and they're groceries contain such diversity that food for any allergy, need, or craving can very easily be found. They're ginormous section of granola and candy pretty much says it all. They have so many different types to choose from, and each is better than the next! Though I will admit the prices are a bit high for the food here, it is definitely worth it, and for any super savers out there, there's always the savings and deals that can be found with the weekly Lazy Acres steals newspaper.

Best little market
Reviewer: Jill
from Santa Barbara, CA
Lazy Acres is the best little market in town. I won't buy meat or fish anywhere else, as I know it's fresh and not stuffed with hormones or antibiotics. At least once a week I buy their already prepared meatloaf (turkey or beef) with garlic mashed potatoes for a quick and easy meal. They have an excellent selection of prepared meals, side dishes, soups and salads for busy people. And it's a quick in-and-out stop, without the hassle of long supermarket lines.

The Best Grocery Store in SB!
Reviewer: Jason Koivu
from Carpinteria, CA
Lazy Acres is located in such a beautiful area and it reflects that. The prices on just about everything are a little bit higher than average or ridiculous, such as a single bell pepper for $3, but the food is always fresh and looks beautiful! The choise and selection is top notch. The meat is bright red. The produce is fresh and green (or whatever color it's suppose to be). The seafood doesn't stink. The shelves are neat and always well stocked. And there's usually about a half dozen free sample stands with delicious food and beverages just waiting to be consumed with no clerks lording over them to make sure you don't make a pig of yourself. But if you have a question, there's always a ton of employees around willing to help. Their cheese section is definitely a notch above your standard grocer's. The wine and beer isn't priced outrageously, but you can find it for less at numerous other places in town. I come here for the beer sometimes cuz Lazy Acres carries all the relatively local breweries, by which I mean the Pacific Coast. It's a who's who of the more well known names like Stone, Rogue, Anchor, Sierra and Firestone. There's a strong showing of good solid imports like Samuel Smiths, Chimay, Erdinger, Unibroue, and Lindemans. If I had a little more expendable cash and the store was a bit closer, I would probably do my grocery shopping here...unless I wanted bell peppers!

Great Produce
Reviewer: Megan
from SB
Lazy Acres is the best market in town. Organic produce, fresh baked goods, hot food, soup/salad bar. Thursday's is the day to go because it's 10% off with student ID, and after 9pm the food in the Hot case goes 1/2 off!
