Know your Grocer, know your Community. The Dolores Food Market / Unexpected Gourmet ® is a community based grocery store that is a great resource for touring the Four Corners, Mesa Verde and the San Juan Mountains. Come see our selection of fresh produce, custom cut meat, ready-to-eat deli meals and home-made baked goodies, including our wonderful made from scratch homemade pies. We cater to locals who are looking for faster service than the big-box stores and to tourists who are looking for "real food". Located on the highway between Telluride and Durango, Colorado, the Dolores Food Market is the perfect place to stock up on all those supplies you'll need for outdoor and indoor activities in the area.
