Center Market

"I love this store. We visit Borrego Springs often and are desert campers, and it always seems we either forget something or just want something when we are out for the weekend. This place has it all and everything is always great quality."

"A lot of love for this quirky little market! They really know their customers and what they want to buy. They will have pretty much whatever you need to make a weekend in Borrego work. It's been around for a long time but I'm old enough to remember when the store was was across from Carlees, so Center Market will always be the "new" store to me."

"Generally, expect to pay higher prices than you're used to. Management is able to keep prices significantly higher throughout the year because they're able to make their profits from snowbirds. They're open till 8:00 p.m. which is actually a credit to the community because apart from the gas stations, there won't be anywhere else to purchase alcohol or groceries at 7:30 pm. Fortunately the restaurants in town offer some decent food and that hooch if you're looking for it. The employees themselves are this store's real redeeming quality, they're friendly, accommodating, and extremely helpful. Plus they're locals, so if you have any questions about the area they'll be happy to share their thoughts."

"Prices are higher than what we’re use too but have a big variety. More than the store on the main road. This is tucked away in the back of the ice cream shop, Mexican restaurant and pharmacy."

"On our way to Joshua Tree NP we were looking for a grocery store to buy some meat and ice, and it came up to be such an interesting place to visit! Not only convenience store with all the house needs but a bunch of souvenirs, western outfits, tshirts, camping and travel related items, here you can find anything you need! Cute little interesting town to visit! Here we saw the advertisement of the Serpent Sculpture, only 5 minutes away, so we came right away to visit! Much better than the grocery store in front of it at “The Mall” plaza. If you’re road tripping in the area this is a good place to stop."
