Marlene's Market & Deli

Friendly customer service.

I love this deli! I love buying raw milk from here and other organic fresh products. Their cafe is so good too! I love their smoothies😋
And for those complaining about Marlene’s being closed on Sundays, Womp womp! The world does not revolve around you! Go find other stores to shop at that are open on Sundays and stop whining about this amazing business. They are open 6 days and they deserve to be close on one day if they want to. Grow up!

Been wanting to visit but it's always closed on my only day off (sunday)

Bought seamoss

Marlene’s is closed on Sundays, because apparently they’ve decided that basic convenience is beneath them. I guess the rest of us peasants can just starve or eat gas station snacks while the kale cult takes a day of rest.

It’s giving “we only care about community when it’s convenient for us.” Like cool, thanks for the lavender hand soap and overpriced lentils—I’ll just go cry into a microwaved burrito since you decided to vanish off the face of the Earth every seventh day like some Whole Foods sabbatical ritual.

Great source for raw milk, organic farm eggs, Manuka honey, vitamins, fresh vegetables and kombucha. Great service every time.

Love love love this outfit. When I don’t shop Costco for large quantity and great prices … and I don’t like the high prices of Metro Market … , I shop Marlene’s for organic produce, grains and breads at very reasonable prices. I just discovered they have a Tacoma store and cannot wait to check it out.

This store is one of my favorite WA State places to get organic produce. James provided me with good customer service. Nice person.

Very friendly staff - the milk and raw honey is great from here!

They'll have what you need for natural foods. Friendly people and the best vibe, especially at Christmastime. I love their upstairs deli, where I often order the daily soup, a hot caprese sandwich, wheat grass shot, and a drink and dessert to go from the nearby fridges on the right. The best!

Great deli options! Spendy but a nice treat once in a while. Lots of good options for the supermarket

This place is great but a little pricey. I will say you get what you pay for and this place is a date for me and my fiancée

Marlene's Market & Deli is awesome they have stuff you might be looking for and the people working there know lots about it.

Today, November 15, 2024 I went to Marlene's Market in Federal Way. I went there specifically looking for a vegetable called "BURDOCK ROOT". I never heard of this vegetable before. As soon as I entered the door an amazing employee by the name of Pamela spotted me before I even entered the store with this "BIG MILLION DOLLAR SMILE" that was out of this world. She kept her eyes on me until I finally reached the front counter. As soon as I get there she says:"HI, HOW MAY I HELP YOU". I in return responded back by saying: "I HAVE 2 QUESTIONS. DO YOU WANT THE HARD OR EASY QUESTION 1ST". She sat there and thought about the question and then responded back by saying: "I'LL TAKE HARDEST QUESTION 1ST". I then said: "THERE WASN'T A HARD OR EASY QUESTION. I WAS JUST MESSING WITH YOUR HEAD" (jokingly to get a reaction out of her). I went on and asked her does Marlene sell burdock root and had she ever heard of burdock root because I never heard of it before. She knew exactly what I was talking about. She walked me right over to exactly where it was in the produce section and showed me exactly what it looked like. She even went as far as to explain all the health benefits to taking burdock roots, how to prep before eating it and also why I should purchase my the burdock root from Marlene's because all their fruits and vegetable where organic and she also mentioned that if store owner Marlene was there she would say to me: "IT'S BETTER TO PAY AT THE FARM THAN THE PHARMACY" in reference to how expensive it was but how much more healthier it was. I responded back by sayin: "I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE EXPENSIVE HERE BUT I ALSO KNEW I WOULD BE GETTING THE BEST PRODUCT FROM HERE BECAUSE MY HEALTH IS IMPORTANT TO ME". Long story short, she has a "VERY NICE, WARM & PLEASANT ATTITUDE" when it comes to employees/customer relationships. Her personality really caught my attention to the point that after I got into my car and ready to leave, I turned my car off and went back all the way into the store to ask her her name. Again, she caught eyes on me before I stepped foot into the store. I went up to her and asked her for her name. She replied back instantly by showing me her name tag as well as telling me her name verbally. I then responded and told her the reason I came back in which was to get her name because I was going to do a review about her personality and how much her personality caught my attention. She was so shocked at what I said you could tell how much what I said really meant to her. She even replied back by saying: "YOU JUST MADE MY DAY". Her comment along made my day as well. If you want the best or healthiest fruit or vegetables on top of "GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE". I would highly recommend going to Marlene's Market. Thanks Pamela, I will definitely be coming back and more for that "BIG OOOH MILLION DOLLAR SMILE & PERSONALITY OF YOURS" Again, THANKS 😃 😊 😀

So many uniquely perfect items here, thank you Marlene’s
