All employees are friendly and helpful. The store has a good selection. The only thing I feel it lacks is that there is not a fresh seafood counter. They do carry a small selection of packaged seafood. Their meat selection is quite adequate. I definitely enjoy shopping at Oceana NAS Commissary.

This is the best commissary I've been to so far. It was clean, organized and well stocked. It has a beautiful selection of everything and the prices are very reasonable. I will definitely be coming here more often.

On my checkout I had trouble finding my card and ID But Bless was very patient and helped me . He is a great asset to the store. Great experience

This is one of my favorite commissaries in the VA Beach area. Everything is always well stocked and the prices are excellent. The parking is very easy, and you don't need to go through the gate guard unlike many commissaries in the DC area. This is actually great because you won't have to wait in a really long line to pass through the gate during busy morning hours or get stuck on base because of sudden gate closures. The IDs are checked immediately upon entering the building to verify patron eligibility instead. Every person who works there are very friendly and helpful. Some of the speciality ethnic pantry aisles are really worth peeking through. I've found really good brands of imported Italian San Marzano tomatoes, tomato paste, cans of anchovies perfect for making Caesar salad, Russian caviars, German marzipans, and all kinds of otherwise expensive imported items for less than $7. I thought that was a steal because for someone like me who cooks just about everything from scratch, you get really attuned to the raw ingredients prices and its quality. Both go hand in hand and this commissary location has a REALLY good selection of it. So if you are especially a big fan of pasta anything and really like the kind you can eat in Italy, it might be worth checking this commissary out. And even if you aren't so particular about cooking ingredients, you might still love going there either way due to the vast selections of ready made food, frozen items, and snacks. My husband had a field day getting all his junk food goodies and I had to practically drag him out of the snack aisle. The only thing I wish this location would improve upon is the inadequate lighting in the parking lot and pot holes leading in and out of it. The car lot can be extremely dark at night because of lack of lights and I actually wasn't sure if the place was open at night until I verified by calling. The pot holes are easy to see during the day but harder to even know it's there when it's dark. Anyhow, I look forward to returning again when we're back in the area.

Great shopping here. The team of staff are helpful and make the boring chore of shopping fun Easy location to get in and out and one of my favorite features they do allow a non military guest which helps when traveling or having visitors who want to join the shopping trip Thanks

#32/2020 Wow! It's been yearzzzzzzzzzz-zuh since I've been to any Military commissary and growing up as a military brat and later becoming a military spouse/widow, it used to be my first choice (and sometimes only) for grocery shopping! But having a Neighborhood Walmart built next to my neighborhood has taken me away from trips to the commissary over time, sadly. My favorite memory of the commissary are the baggers who bagged our groceries AND brought them out to our cars. Some of them were nice, some of them didn't know how to hold conversations, but no matter what you had to tip them! We, of course, had our favorites. Rule #1 about the commissary is: DO NOT GO ON THE 1st & 15th OF EVERY MONTH! Don't say I didn't warn ya, LOL! You can't purchase anything unless you have a valid Military ID. You can definitely enter with a Sponsor (aka friend or family member) but there's a sign at the ID check-in counter that reads "Guests Must Remain With Sponsor At All Times." (Insert side-eye emoji) I've noticed that available items vary from store to store depending on city, state, and probably country. I really appreciate the ones in the 757 area because they are mindful and cater to Asian families. I've seen many Asian grocery/produce items that make it convenient for us to prepare and cook native dishes without having to make extra stops elsewhere. If you need a specific type of meat, the butcher will gladly make an order for you! Lastly, the best part of the Commissary is the lower price points! I've missed them and it's totally worth the drive especially if you're making a huge grocery trip. If you're only needing one or two items, not worth the drive for me, I'd rather go next door to Walmart. But ever since my most recent visit the other day, I'm going back to my old habits and shopping my local Military Commissary.

I like this particular commissary even though it's way out of the way for me because it has a lot of variety than the one closest to me. The prices are fairly good and well for obvious reasons there are no taxes. They have a good selection of deli meats, and have lots of gluten free option products. They also carry "so delicious " Ice cream for a good price $4.09? However they stopped selling the "so delicious" whip cream there for some reason. I tend to notice that with some of their really popular items they will all of a sudden stop selling them. They have great meat prices as well for the most part. However, some things are better purchased elsewhere like Dawn dishwashing liquid, toilet paper, paper towels, blueberries, strawberries and bananas I buy from Sam's Club.

I always find better deals here. It's good for organic lovers;) Organic, Carrot $1.05 kiwi 2 for $1 raspberry $2.10blueberry$1.60 The best deal around here. Actually a Trader Joe has carrot for $0.89 I wish I could live near here. Or all commissary has same products and prices. I'll come back here again soon;)
