Sun Valley Market

I n this age of big box everything , there are still local family owned businesses which provide an extraordinary level of service and develop a relationship with their customers . Sun Valley Market on Monterey Road in Morgan Hill is just such a place . The last time we were in there , the owner ’ s mother was not only minding the register , but also mending clothes for the grand kids while chatting with customers . Most of the customers who came in where greeted by name and clearly enjoyed know there was a special place for them to get their goodies . Along with the usual selection of convenience store items , lottery tickets , snacks and such , Sun Valley Market offers fantastic collection of craft beers . They even carry Pliny the Elder , an incredibly hard to find beer from the Russian River Brewing Company . If you want some , be sure to get your name on the list in advance , as it sells out the day it comes in !
