Lake Avenue Ralphs to Add Bakery and Deli

The store on Lake Avenue will be adding a deli and a bakery section, according to Chris Marshall, the store manager.

The Lake Avenue Ralphs, which is smaller than the average retail branch, has been the subject of frequent discussion on the site because of complaints over the lack of deli and bakery, and sometimes because of limited selection at the store.

One Altadena resident to ask the store to make improvements.

Marshall said the store will be getting permits to do the work, but she does not know how long it will take to complete the improvements.  She directed those questions to Ralphs public relations - Altadena Patch has left a message with them, and we will let you know if we hear anything back.

Marshall did say that because of the size of the store, the sections won't be as large as they are in some Ralphs stores.

"It will be small, but the fact that we are going to do it is exciting," Marshall said.
