- SSSamNov 10, 20254.0I really like Pavilions! The bakery samples are always a fun treat, and they used to have amazing M&M cookies — I’m bummed they’re gone now. I also love checking out the 50% off area; there are some great deals if you look around. The drink selection is excellent, with tons of choices. My only complaint is the self-checkout — it feels like it takes an hour for someone to help when there’s an issue. Still, overall a great store and definitely one I’d recommend over Vons!
