Very convenient store located minutes from the beach. A lot of great candy, chips, soda, and alcohol options.

Great craft beer selection Reasonable prices Pliney and pure projects Very close to some of the best beach spots

Great place ,clean ,fully stoked for all your shopping needs . From beer to clothing . Best liquor selection in town .

Our go to place every time we get into town, from bait to something we forgot. Just a few blocks from where we stay.

Friendly little convenience store in a great location. Just a block from our AirBNB stay...came in handy for our munchie and booze needs! Huge liquor, wine, and beer selection. We love this place!

Pricey, yes but with everything going on in the world, it often doesn't even matter (especially if I need toilet paper!). I love supporting small businesses, and this one is no exception. While there is surprisingly a fantastic amount of parking, I tend to walk over (and I'm here several times a week, picking up drinks or random items). This market has a huge selection of stuff- there's local brands as well as stuff from Smart n Final and Costco. Everyone is always super friendly, and this spot is open late (midnight!). If ever I opt to pay for convenience, this is my number one choice in the area.

Fron outside, Pappy's Market is a hoot! Old school sign, funky murals, hard not to spot it! I went in to get some water while on a weekend getaway. Inside, the place is your typical liquor store. Nothing fancy, or unusual, but well stocked with anything you need to grab. Good selection and prices, nice customer service. Solid market, indie store, that's why we picked it to shop at and go!

As a warning, this is a pretty Russian River Brewing exclusive post. Quick backstory: as a resident of Arizona, I am in a constant state of yearning for Pliny the Elder--hi, Russian River, I'm ready for you to distribute to my state!! So every single time I'm anywhere in California, I make it a point to hunt down as much as I can and bring it home. A yelp search/cross-reference against Russian River's website (this isn't a joke, friends) led me straight to Pappy's Market, which was conveniently located exactly one mile from my hotel. Day 1 of vacation: I hit up Pappy's on my walk back from Oceanside Pier. They have THREE bottles of Pliny in stock. I am elated. I confirm with a very nice employee that there isn't a limit (that's right, NO limit!), and then purchase all of them plus a bonus Blind Pig. They also carried bottles of the STS Pils, but I'm personally not a huge fan of that one. After a conversation with my sister, a Russian River worshipper as well, she requests that I go back and "buy out all of their Blind Pig" and bring it back to her. I didn't end up doing that, but I did swing back in and buy 5 more piggies. When I came up to the counter to pay, the cashier (different one from my earlier purchases), noted what I was carrying and asked me if I was interested in Pliny; my answer was obviously a resounding yes. He told me that there was another case in the back and he could offer me two more. Hellz. Yeah. After confirming that I did in fact, still want to purchase all 5 Blind Pigs in conjunction with my two additional Plinys, I paid the very reasonable price ($6.50--pretty common from what I've found in Southern CA) and went merrily along on my way. Pappy's will absolutely be a mandatory stop in the future for beers, anytime I'm in the Oceanside or Carlsbad area. The service, the RRB, and the overall selection was awesome, and the place itself is clean and well organized. I can see why it's a stop for locals and travelers alike.
