Lowe’s Market — Local services in Del Norte

Jack's Market truly surprised my husband and I. After spending several days camping in the San Juan mountains, we passed through Del Norte and thought we'd stop to stock up on supplies. We were actually impressed with how large the store was and with their selection. Their produce department was really well-stocked. They had organic items, kale, avocados, portobello mushroom and more. They even offered an array of vegan, natural and organic products. We bought some tofu, hummus, Kashi granola, Honest tea and more. They even had vegan sour cream (by Tofutti), vegetarian sausages (Morning Star) and more. Sadly their deli didn't have any vegan items, but that was as expected. We were just surprised to see that they had so many great products there for such a reasonable price. For being as isolated as it is, their selection and customer service was great. Oh, I almost forgot to mention, their salsa selection was rather large! The people were surprisingly friendly and it was refreshing to see diversity among their staff. We will definitely stop in again...

DO NOT SHOP HERE. This place replaced the classic Jacks Market, which was absolutely incredible. And had been for years. And this owner came in, and the quality has slowly been dropping over the past few years. Checking expiration dates on literally everything is a must. And if the meat is 5 or less days from being expired. It has been… For like a week. The entire fridge smells of rotten meat. And the mass amount of cross contamination would make Gordon Ramsey faint. Do not buy meat here. And check all dates.

Update: It’s 4 months later. And quality has dropped even further. I thought I’d give them another chance. But good lord. If anyone is looking for some free cash just go buy some meat from this place and eat it. It’s literally a lawsuit waiting to happen… I cannot believe this place is dumping such a HUGE amount of money into poisoning our community. This company is a awful. I feel horrible for all the poor souls that have to work for them. Dropped to one star. Wish I...

Where to even start... The only thing Lowe's has going for it would be the employees. This store is cashing in on the fact that they are really the only grocery in town. That said, I'm sure most of the residents of Del Norte avoid going here for the poor quality and the ridiculous prices. But Lowe's really wants you to think you're getting a good deal...you're not. Did you know you can buy a pack of Charmin toilet paper for the low price of $20+tax? What a deal! The most disappointing thing is this store is the produce. I rarely see quality produce and have to settle and hope for the best when picking out items. All you can do is find the one that doesn't look too rotten and sad... I hate giving my money to this store and refuse to go here for anything other than a few (overpriced) essentials. But I would much rather drive to another town to get...
