Howden Market is a specialty food store in Oakland, California. It is listed at 1630 Webster St, Oakland, CA 94612, which places it among the local businesses of Oakland that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as beer store, convenience store, grocery delivery service, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

Store size varies enormously, from a small corner grocery with a few aisles to a full supermarket chain location in Oakland with a bakery, seafood counter and food court under one roof. Sales and promotions are often posted in-store or in a weekly flyer rather than online, so prices listed on a website may be out of date. Seafood markets sell live and on-ice product and can usually clean or prepare fish on request for a small fee. Specialty food stores in California may focus narrowly on one category, like a butcher, a rice and dry goods shop, or an import store, so calling ahead to confirm stock for a specific item saves a wasted trip.
