12 Costco Foods You Can Only Find at Regional Food Courts
Updated: Aug. 03, 2021Here are a few of the atypical regional Costco foods out there, along with where you can track them down.
Costco food menus
If you’ve ever been to Costco locations in various parts of the world, you may notice that the food court menus are a little different. Depending on where you are, varying regional foods may be present. These change by location and are either themed to local flavors or give customers a taste of other parts of the globe. Check them out.
And, find out more about the secret shopping perks only Costco members know about.
Acai bowls
You can find these in several beach cities in the California area as well as, reportedly, Hawaii. A single order will set you back just $5, much cheaper than the typical acai bowl spot. Don’t miss the secret code behind Costco’s prices.
Cheeseburgers
These were being tested in the SoCal area last year, but it’s unclear if they’ll make a return. In the meantime, the burgers have been spotted at Costcos in Georgia and Chicago.
Vegan Al Pastor Salad
These have been spotted in a few locations in the greater Los Angeles area, and may be a possible test item for Costco. They appear next to Caesar Salads, a rotating item that can be found everywhere from Chicago to South Korea. Costco even has a branch in China!
Clam chowder
You can find cups of chowder on sale at Costco locations in Japan. No New England or SF locations, though, Costco? That’s where chowder is king! You can also buy these other incredibly gourmet foods at Costco, too.
Chicken teriyaki bowls
Although the dish is more native to Japan, you can find this new item in South Korean stores. While on your shopping expedition, be Costco’s most polite customer with these tips.
Sausage and peppers sandwich
In the U.S., you likely either have this sandwich or a bratwurst available. The Sausage and Peppers sandwich is predominant on the East Coast, whereas the Bratwurst can be found more towards the Midwest. If you love spice, pick up these great snacks.
Poutine
Costco’s take on the Canadian classic can be found in… well, Canada. These are things that you can do at Costco without a membership.
Nasi Goreng
Costco’s take on this Indonesian fried rice dish can be found in locations in Seoul.
Meat pies
You can find these meat-stuffed snacks at Costcos in Australia. Of course.
Watch out for these secrets Costco employees don’t want you to know.
