We are not currently open to the public, but we are fulfilling orders online for front door pickup and shipping.
After you have made your selections and added them to your cart, select “Store Pickup” and choose either Oakland or Albany. Then, select your pickup day and complete your payment. The first pickup day shown will be the earliest we can get your order prepared. Currently the quickest we can have orders ready is 4 days. We will have your order ready on the day you select.
On your scheduled pick-up day, please come between 12pm-5pm. Come to the front door, let us know the first and last name of the person who placed the order and order number, and we will bring your order out to you. For everyone's safety, we require face coverings to be worn and ask those with symptoms of respiratory illness or fever to refrain from picking up orders. If there's a line, please use the markers on the sidewalk to line up at a safe distance from one another. Thanks!
If you would like to order additional spices, please place another pickup order. We will unfortunately not be able to accommodate changes to your original order after it has been placed. As part of our social distancing efforts, we cannot process any in-person payments or issue refunds at the time of pickup.
Please come the following day to pick up. We are open for pickups Monday through Saturday, 12pm to 5pm. If your order is not picked up within a week, we will refund and restock.
Our inventory is a bit limited right now. What we have online is what we currently have available to order. Sizes are more limited than they normally are in our retail shops. Thanks for your understanding.
As long as you select the Oakland or Albany store at checkout, we will know where you plan to pick up. Unfortunately, the address fields are a required part of the checkout process with the system we use. However, don't worry! No matter what you put here, if you selected your store pickup, we will have all the info we need.
Currently, due to high order volume, we are shipping orders about 10 to 12 days after orders are placed. Unforeseen carrier conditions may cause actual delivery dates to vary.
At this time we ship within the United States only.
We primarily ship via USPS Priority Mail, which takes 1-3 business days after we ship. For larger orders we sometimes ship via UPS, which takes up to 7 business days.
Please send us an email at info@oaktownspiceshop.com as soon as possible after placing your order.
We are currently experiencing a high volume of orders and because of this, we are unfortunately unable to take phone orders at this time. Please email us at info@oaktownspiceshop.com with any questions about placing an order online.
If your purchase is a gift, please write a note on the cart page where it says "add a gift note to your order." Your note will be printed on the packing slip, which does not include prices. (Please sign your note, as our packing slips do not include the sender's name!)
We do! Please email us at orders@oaktownspiceshop.com for more information.
All online sales are final. But if your package arrives broken or you aren't completely satisfied, please email info@oaktownspiceshop.com and we will get right back to you.
Gift cards can be used on any item in our online shop. To use a gift card online, just enter your gift card code at checkout. You'll see an option to add "Discount code or gift card" beneath the order summary. If you don't use your whole gift card on one order, the remainder will be kept on the card for you to apply to your next order.
We are keeping our shops closed to the public for the time being to help limit the spread of COVID-19. In addition, we have reinforced our existing training on effective handwashing and using personal protective equipment and we have increased our sanitation procedures in our shops and production areas.
Staff members are working at properly spaced workstations. Also, staff members who are sick will stay home from work. All of our staff members receive sick pay.
