Absolutely everything a neighborhood market should be. We should all support our local businesses. They have everything we need, they're easy to get to, efficient service, fresh french bread every day, a nice choice of cheeses, good produce and a very good selection of chocolate. What more could we ask for? Oh, they hire locally and support our community, too.

I really enjoy shopping here. The selection is great and the staff and owners are very nice. Great produce, meats, and cheeses. I do wish there was better parking though.

i'm tempted to tell you not to go to this market...
...because the reality is that it's the best market in noe/bernal hands down. and i already have to fight among enough hipster/yupsters as it is!!

the food is great, with great selections of indie and regular products, the music is great, (while i was in there i heard lucinda williams and johnny cash then otis day and the nights), and the staff are all young and happy and friendly and helpful, ( but not stalky!)
It's always full of yummy smells and pretty fresh flowers and sparking clean...
best of all they have pomme lambic and arrogant b*stard ale!!

...but you don't HAVE to go.
you can totally stick with the safeway or the bell market, no problem, i won't even tell anyone...
:)

Best grocery store ever! Yeah, the prices might be a little high, but it is so convenient and fun. If you are looking for something and they don't have it, they'll try and get it for you. The meat counter people are extremely funny and sweet. Very helpful. The cashiers are always smiling, except for one girl. But I figured she just had a bad day. And the cashiers are also very friendly and helpful. And those roasted chickens are delicious. As well as their Chicken Salad. But overall, I love this place. Between all the crazy 2 year-olds running around and the colorful staff, you are guranteed a good shop with some entertainment. Also, if you are looking for vegan, organic, or all natural...odds are you will find it here.

A grocery store of organic produce and a great place to shop for those who are vegetarians. It is a local favorite on cortland street and has been in this location for many years.
