LOCAL. INDEPENDENT. FAMILY OWNED.

SINCE 1974

A LOCAL story

For 50 years, Central Market has proudly been part of the Central Coast’s small business community.

Original building from 1974. Built with corrugated steel panels.

the team

Our team of managers, butchers, clerks, cooks, and stockers create a shopping experience that caters to the local community and visiting travelers alike.

Renovated building from 1988. Expanded on both sides to include more than triple the floor space. Building was finished with a more durable stucco exterior. Renovations also include the addition of an adjoining retail space now home to Dune Side Deli an artisan style sandwich shop.

A BEACH TOWN

The market is situated on the Pacific Coast Highway and has become the favorite one-stop shop for those people visiting one of California’s top go-to destinations — the Oceano Dunes SVRA

Current building from 2024. The building structure remains unchanged from the 1988 renovations. Smaller interior renovations include the addition of hot deli kitchen retail space in 2006.
