A neighbourhood Latin grocery on East 14th Street in San Leandro, owned by Alfredo Esquivel.
Acerca de
Pericos is Spanish for parakeets, and Los Pericos Market is a neighbourhood grocery at 375 East 14th Street in San Leandro, on the commercial corridor that carries buses between downtown San Leandro and East Oakland. Alfredo Esquivel is named as the owner in the chamber's records. The details on this page were assembled from public listings and have not yet been confirmed by the store.
What is usually on the shelves
Directory and delivery listings describe the store as a grocery with a Mexican food counter. A market of this kind usually stocks fresh produce, including the chiles, tomatillos and herbs that big supermarkets carry in small amounts; a meat counter that cuts carne asada, al pastor and other marinated cuts to order; dried beans, spices, tortillas and pan dulce; and imported snacks, sodas and pantry goods from Mexico and Central America. Many also sell prepared food such as tacos and tortas, and offer money transfer and bill payment at the register.
Some listings suggest a second San Leandro location on Marina Boulevard, and Taqueria Los Pericos in the Pelton Center is listed as a separate business. Neither connection has been confirmed.
Shopping and ordering
For a birthday, a quinceañera or a family gathering, call a few days ahead to order meat by the pound or trays of prepared food, and ask whether the counter will marinate to order. Ask which forms of payment the store takes, including EBT, and whether it delivers through an app; at least one delivery platform lists it. If you want something specific, such as a brand of queso fresco or a particular dried chile, a quick call saves a wasted trip. Parking along East 14th can be tight at busy times, so ask whether there is a lot behind or beside the building.
The neighbourhood and beyond
Most shoppers come from San Leandro itself and from next-door San Lorenzo, Castro Valley and East Oakland. Hayward, Alameda, Emeryville and Piedmont are a short drive away for anyone hunting a particular cut or ingredient, and the store sits close to Interstate 580 for drivers coming down from the hills.
Call 510-430-9500 for hours and orders. If you run Los Pericos Market, the chamber can help you claim this listing and fill in what the public records leave out.
