Gus's Community Market

There’s a few parking spots available at their garage Harrison St. it can be very busy during the weekend. Always very well stocked and clean. Live be also moved fast. They carry acme bread here. The produce and fresh goods are always very fresh. The cafe is now open and there’s plenty of outdoor seating.

Gus’s has the best selection of all foods out of all grocery stores in the city. Local businesses are heavily featured, and the craft beer, niche wine and liquor sections are to die for.

Butcher would not cut to the weight I needed. I asked for 1 lb of skirt steak. One piece weighed 0.75 lb and two pieces weighed 1.25 lb. I asked them if they could cut or select a piece closer to 1 lb and they said “no, can’t cut into smaller pieces”. This is a butcher, not pre-packaged meat. The butcher was curt and unapologetic. Other items like produce and cheese section are okay. Garage is gross with rats and garbage filth.

Love this local market. They have great selection of products in a small space. Wish there were a little more organic options but it’s still good. Try the grilled lemon chicken, mmmm

Pricy, but worth it for the most part. I love goinf to get some sushi because I live close by. I recommend getting meat, fish, and prepared food somewhere else though other than their sandwhiches.

Great little market in the prime part of the City. My only issues were the outrageous prices of everything in the store. In short, convenience has its price. Therefore, enjoy but get your mind right on the cost of things within the store.

Gus's is a really nice grocery store. I come here for quick shopping, snack, lunch pick up. Everything is fresh, they have salad bar, soup counter, sandwiches and poke, sushi bar and more. They have multiple registers open and line moves pretty quickly. People are super friendly and helpful!

Gus's is a great neighborhood market - higher quality than nearby Safeway and less expensive than Whole Paycheck (Foods) It's a little cramped, but you will generally find what you need The extensive fresh produce and a real butcher mean you can source pretty much anything you need if you like to cook

High quality produce, meats and items. I love to shopping here because I find items that sometimes cannot find at other grocery stores. I also searched high and low for a standing rib roast for Father's Day and no store carried it in their store (it was a special order item) except for Gus's!

I had high hopes for this store when it first moved in, but the reality is that I can't shop here, because it's NOT WHEELCHAIR-ACCESSIBLE. It could be really easily if the employees wouldn't clutter the aisles with boxes and superfluous displays, if carts of promoted items weren't destroying reasonable turn-radii, if everything wasn't shoved so close together! I get that it's a neighborhood grocery store that isn't as big as Safeway, Foods Co, Trader Joe's, or Rainbow, but it's the only grocery store in the area I can't access in my mobility-assistance device because I literally can't get down the aisles or turn from one aisle to another! I have an easier time navigating Bi-Rite, which is probably an eighth of the size of this place! Gus's even clutters the front entrance!! And this clutter is haphazard and unnecessary! It's just bad planning on the management's part. When I've mentioned the issue to employees in the past, they seem completely uninterested in helping in any way. Lest you think this is just an issue inside the grocery store, it's also an issue in the parking area: In the evening, the employees start breaking down the displays of produce in front of the store and putting them in the garage...and OF COURSE they put them all in the few ADA-accessible parking spaces!! Talking about insult to injury!! I've completely given up on this store. I can't shop here, and the employees don't seem to have any interest in fixing the issues around wheelchair-accessibility here, so I doubt that will ever change. It's a shame, I'd prefer to give almost anyone my money other than Safeway, but honestly? Gus's Community Market might as well put a sign outside saying "We don't care about the ADA!"

While all snuggled up in my bed watching season 4 of vanderpump in my bed, I kept going back and forth in my head on getting the second half of my seal rock sandwich at 1:12am. The intrusive thoughts won when I waddled from bed to fridge and back again with sandwich in hand. I'm a sucker for olive tapenade and Pepperoncini. The seal rock has that and more- but maybe too much? I ended up removing the cheese from my sando because it was ultimately too salty with the cheddar and pepper jack. And I'm a salty girl!! Overall I'm thankful for this second dinner to chow down on while contemplating the now deceased relationships of tom Sandoval, Arianna, Kristen and of course, James Kennedy.

Rating is just for the high-value sandwich shop. When I lived walking distance to a different location, I got a Gus's sandwich maybe 4-5 days a week. I usually got the Gus's special on Dutch Crunch, served hot, and replace the turkey with pastrami. If I wanted to change it up, I'd also order the Chelsea, Mission Creek, 1906, and meatball sub; all of which are just as good! Today I got my usual order for old times sake and remembered why I went so often. The Dutch Crunch is the perfect amount of light crunch followed by a light chew. They don't skimp on the ingredients, giving a perfect fusion of meat, avocado, veggies, and sauce. While other shops may be selling smaller sandwiches for over $15, Gus's offers their very generous sandwiches for a modest $12. Combined with their buy 8 get 1 free sandwich card, the value is unbeatable! The grocery store is great for convenience with a good selection of locally-sourced products. I do find their other ready to eat options such as the Poké, sushi, and rice/noodle bowls a little lackluster. In the end, I keep coming back for the sandwiches, which I highly recommend!

One of my favorite grocery stores ever! Prices are on the higher side but the quality is the best for just about everything there. Friendly staff too!

What really sets this Gus's apart (and don't get me wrong, I love the Haight Street location too) is their management and care for their customers. They persevered through the pandemic with poise and grace and (figuratively) bend over backwards to assist customers. Whether it be popular items running low or handling the sudden return of the "lunch rush" on weekdays now that so many of us are back to the office, this team really excels. A special shout out to Holt who really went the extra mile for a crazy sandwich order. And to the deli counter sandwich gurus, and the early morning coffee crew for being so locked in and consistent with our favorite orders (The Quake, The Meatball Sub and the Tofu Sando "Hot" on Dutch Crunch, plus a perfectly balanced double cap to-go). Gus's reminds you of the neighborhood markets you grew up with (their Haight Street location actually was one of our childhood markets that we would walk to with my Mom before we stopped by the old Real Food Co on Stanyan). PS: Bless your hearts for coffee and sandwich cards and Two Stamp Tuesday's (hug)

Five Star Grocery Store. Checks all the boxes for a grocery store and what they should have. I have been going here for about 7 years and it's about time I do a review on my favorite grocery store in SF. 1. Amazing Kind knowledgeable staff, if they don't know the answer they will find a staff person and get u the answer 2. Love the Citrus samples here. Must try these 3. They cater to the Kiddos, they have mini grocery carts for little kids to push around and give out free lollipops at the end near the end of the register for not just little kids but the big adult kids too 4. How are the Poké bowls here the best I have ever ate in SF? Sooo good! I have ate at least 60 Poké bowls here and they serve it everyday only from 11am-3pm. 5. Everything I swear can be customized for vegan or vegetarians or a gluten free diet. They will make it happen just ask, they are so helpful 6. Their sushi is amazing and tastes better than many restaurants I have gone too. Helen works in the sushi area and has the highest standards I have ever seen of sushi sold in a grocery store and they even do sushi catering and When I served it at a party no one thought the sushi or poke' bowls came from a grocery store 7. They do amazing catering and u can pick up on a Sunday and their prices are affordable and cheaper than like places for the same quality of catering (like Bi-rite) 8. The chips many times are on sale and cheaper than many other places. Also they are always on top of their chip game and always have the newest chips. I recently got Air fried chips from there! Nom! 9. They have a happy hour here for all the beer drinkers. 10. There is a cafe on site and have indoor and outdoor eating! This place is amazing! Just go! It's way more than a grocery store!

Raf, Bo, Kai, Lucie, Muna, Millie to name a few of the awesome workers who make Haight street a community. The people who work on deli and fish are amazing and hardworking. The sushi and sandwiches are fresh every day

What an amazing grocery store! Loved the vibe. Lots of organic and vegan options to choose from, both top brands and brands that might surprise you from your hometown (we found an old Indian soap called Chandrika at this store!), yet feels like a homely grocery store. I was surprised to find they were selling 5 hass avocados for $4!!! Store is located conveniently on Haight street and also sells sandwiches, coffees, and prepackaged food, I would definitely come back!

I found this market after a search for the best 'whipped cream' (love it on my coffee). Whole Foods used to have a great whipped cream but they stopped making it awhile ago, along with many foods that I used to love....including the hot bar - which looks good but tastes like garbage! However, i tried Gus hot foot and there is a limited choice but it's a lot fresher than Whole Foods, so it's going to become my 'go to' place for shopping. I'm not going to Whole Foods any longer!!! Time to try their salad stuff!!

It has been just long enough to forget how angry their gluten free sandwich makes me. The bread disintegrated and I had to eat it with a fork and knife because it just kept falling apart into smaller pieces. There are far better breads out there. Even the Costco GF bread is leaps and bounds better. Not asking for the best GF bread, just one that doesn't completely fall apart. So mad!

It was my first time ordering through door dash for lunch. I ordered the Gus's special box lunched. Disappointed in the way they cut my sandwich, who cuts sandwiches like this ? everything was just falling out. It was a good sandwich just wished it was cut better lol.

Got Gus's delivered for the first time and have to say was so impressed! I have been struggling to find my "go-to" sandwich spot and safe to say I found it. We got the Quake and light rail and both were delicious. The light rail is served hot with grilled chicken and peppers, hint add provolone for a delicious treat. The quake is a saucy take on an Italian and very filling. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a good quality sandwich. All ingredients seem fresh and they have organic options as well.

Perfect place for the neighborhood. I work nearby and this is my lunch stop. Think Whole Foods but with a real, full service deli. I recommended the Waller sandwich on Tuesday and the French dip on Thursday. Get a sandwich card. 2 for 1 on Tuesdays.

Tasty sandwiches! My favorite is the BLT sandwich on soft French bread (pictured here), though I haven't had every kind they make. I came around 3pm and there was no line, but I'm sure it gets busier during the lunch rush. I was debating about ordering takeout through DoorDash to save time, but I'm glad I decided to order at the store and wait because it was a couple dollars cheaper.

Went to get a steak and when I asked for the cut that I would like the guy behind the meat counter just said, "we ain't got that" and smirked at me like I was asking for something irregular. I then asked for a t bone steak and he turned to his friend and laughed in my face like I was asking too much of him. This dude had no respect at all and really hurt my feelings.

I have been enjoying the deli sandwiches for years at this particular location, on Harrison, so it pains me to write this. Like anything else I do expect a few misses now and then but this is the third consecutive time that the sandwiches were a total disappointment. Addressing the latest purchase, The Chelsea, which is considered a hot sandwich, was anything but! Also, the sandwiches are put together in such a way it's close to impossible to eat one using your hands; which forced me to use utensils...as with the other times. However, I must say that Gus's has the BEST selection of seasonal fruits and vegetables of any grocery store in San Francisco. Which is why I still recommend Gus's Community Market.

Today I was looking for cheeses for a cheese plate and asked the person behind the cheese counter for recommendations. Unfortunately I didn't get his name but he came out from behind the counter to give me several suggestions, as well as suggesting the bread, grapes, and meat. It was everything I needed for my party! I often shop at Gus's. It is expensive but local and the quality is much better than that of like Whole Foods, which is nearby.

Wait I haven't reviewed this place yet?? Ok so I have no idea if they are any good as a grocery but I've had the Gus's special (Turkey) sandwich about a bajillion times (whatever once a week is for YEARS) and it's probably the tastiest "cold" sando in the city. Get it on Dutch crunch of course. Power tip: if you have olive oil (especially a Greek style koroneiki with woody flavor) and salt, dip this sandwich in that. You can thank me later.

Great little deli/market and very community oriented. The sandwiches were so delicious that nobody took pictures prior to finishing them. We ordered meatball sub, Delores, the quake, and a few gus' specials and the Reuben. The favorites were the quake and the gus' special. They were all very tasty and full of ingredients. We ordered side pickles which is a must if you like pickles. The service is superb. I suggest you call ahead especially if you don't like to wait in line and/or have a lot of orders. It was fun to find great food for Christmas lunch. They have a cute little eating area with a big community table and some tables wrapped around the inside of the room so you can look outside the windows while eating. So fun. The prices were very decent. Most of the sandwiches are about $12/ sandwich. Some more or less but it's way worth it. I shared my sandwich because after half I was so full! Add some chips or a drink with it and you have a great meal with friends or solo.

Just got the quake sandwich. Yum! It was huge and hit the spot after a yoga sesh. It had ample amounts of meat which I appreciated. It was $11.95. You get a stamp for every sandwich you get. 9th sandwich is free! I also love the cleanliness and food choices offered at Gus's. Will be back!

The best sandwiches. High quality ingredients. Get their oven roasted turkey and sourdough rolls.

I used to love Gus's- I lived next door and would shop here all the time. But now that I live further away I've had to use services like Instacart and have had a ton of issues with the produce. In my last order nearly every single product item was expired or had bugs or worms. My tomatoes were covered in mold, my broccoli had worms, my bok choy was rotted. Extremely frustrating because when using services like Instacart I can't be there in person to check, and Gus's should absolutely not be letting produce like this sit out for people to buy. It's negligent and frankly unsafe.

I'm done coming here for the time being because the staff acted like jerks. Let's say you have a peanut allergy - I don't, but my guest today does. One thing the staff of a grocery store can do is have a polite, clear yes or no answer for whether or not their prep areas, stuff, whatever, have peanut allergy whatever. I don't know, I'm not a peanut allergy expert, I'm just a guy, I don't have the allergy! Maybe in the popular imagination there's some Rubicon allergy people cross, and they go from not being able to deal with eating out to being able to deal with eating out. But I do not have a peanut allergy, so I will never cross the Rubicon, I will never master someone else's something something about allergies. I just need a decent answer. Instead the guy behind the deli counter was a jerk. He didn't answer the question: he said there's peanuts everywhere, or nowhere, he doesn't know, but he does know, it could be, it's your problem, etc. etc. There's a lot of gesticulation and attitude and get-outta-my-face about a question delivered super politely and succinctly, by maybe one of the nicest people in the world. The guest didn't do anything to deserve a food-service-Subreddit style response. This isn't a restaurant, this is a grocery store. It's not some kind of peanut-based ethnic food. There's nothing holy about the food they make. Like where does Internet Reply Guy draw the line on places that can accommodate people with allergies? In summary, if you're going to read this review and think, "Well allergy people have to worry about their own allergies:" (1) It's a grocery store. If you think grocery stores aren't obligated to deal with food safety questions competently, where exactly do you imagine do people with peanut allergies get food? (2) I do not have the allergy, so I will never master this skill, but I am a payer, so my opinion does matter. (3) Gus's could have been nice about it, and instead they were jerks. Why is the food service guy antagonizing a peanut allergy guy at a grocery store? I don't know.

love getting sandwiches from here. the meat ratio is perfect & i always thoroughly enjoy them. the quake is my favorite & i love the macaroni salad with it!

White guy who was working as a cashier accused me of stealing. When I had a receipt for what I paid for in my pocket. Then proceeds to say he has to deal with it all day as if, that should grant some sort of sympathy. It was an uncomfortable situation that left me dissatisfied with my overall experience. CFC should never profile anyone that comes into the store let alone accuse someone of stealing if they aren't sure of it.

Dear Yelp, this is a wonderful market. They have a really great selection of basically everything and the butcher department is especially phenomenal. Everyone who has helped me with fish and meat has been wonderful but especially Michelle! She is always on top of things and is somehow gracious and warm even when she's working at a breakneck pace (someone give her a raise!). They have done a great job with COVID measures and I have always felt safe going there. I appreciated that they limited the TP and hand sanitizer to 1/person when it was in high demand so there would be some available for everyone. They have done a great job staying stocked up, and i know that's been a challenge in COVID. Like other reviewers I also think their deli menu could be more compelling - but lately I noticed they added a new Brussels sprout salad thing in the prepackaged selection which is a welcome addition. Thanks for being my main squeeze for 5 years now! You (meaning the Gus's employees that make this place run smoothly and remain astonishingly friendly under pressure) rock!

The produce is always so fresh, and the place is so clean. Even after years now of being open. Their deli sandwiches are so yummy.

Good grocery store, and great place to pick up a morning sandwich before a hike or a bike ride!

Stumbled upon this market on a recent trip around San Francisco. My husband was attending the AWS conference in San Francisco and my initial plan was to drop him off and head to the Presidio for some hiking. This plan was thoroughly thwarted by traffic, blocked off streets and barely avoiding lanes that lead one to the Bay Bridge. Since I knew I was going to have to pick him up "in a bit", I found myself sticking closer to that side of town. I was on my way to a different destination ( Omnivore Books) when I spied Gus's Community Market. I decided to check it out and I really wish we had something even *remotely* similar in my neck of the woods!! So many great items packed into this store! I bought the Gus's Midnight Shift blend whole bean coffee-it's delicious & super Happy I thought to buy 2 bags ( already went online to see if I could buy more!) From the deli-the Greek Pastitsio was so good, I did not share. The beet & greens salad, I added to butter lettuce & blood oranges A Blind Pig from Russian River for the hubster A sourdough loaf of bread that was used to make garlic bread, cheesy bread & avocado toast No photos of anything as I was too busy navigating or scarfing :) I hope to visit again soon! And this time I will bring a proper freezer bag or cooler!! Stellar customer service, too!!

Gus's has good quality products but some unusual policies. Today at the store on Harrison and 17th I was told: 1. Have to buy the fish the way it has been cut and is in the case. The person said the manager will not allow you to get a smaller piece. 2. Have to tell the person at the deli everything you want, all at once, or he won't start working on your order. I don't need 3/4 lb of cod for myself and I want my order to be started as I browse the deli section to see what else I might want. For these reasons, I am out. This is not a friendly, neighborhood market.

I tried the Valencia sandwich on a Dutch Crunch bread, soo good! Can't wait to try more stuff next time I go back. I usually shop at trader joe's, so the prices here were a bit high for me, everything did look fresh so maybe next time I'll pick up a few groceries as well. Friendly staff!

Great little neighborhood grocery store. Good selection of organic food. There's not much space between the aisles. You can't avoid bumping into someone. Friendly and efficient staff at checkout.

As part two of my weekly office lunch, I decided to get a salad. (I normally need something green with every meal.) Since I ordered my main from another spot, I decided to try a salad from Gus's Community Market. Our delivery order arrived on Friday, May 11th around 12:45pm via Caviar. I went simple and got Gus's House Salad: Mixed greens, grape tomatoes, red onions, shredded carrots, and house vinaigrette ($5.99). The salad was a pretty good size. Came with a fair amount of tomatoes, onions, and carrots. (Sometimes house salads can be heavy on the greens and not much else.) There was also a lot of dressing for those who like a lot of vinaigrette. I actually ate the salad a few days later and it was still nice and fresh. Says a lot about the quality of their ingredients. Great place to grab a salad. Even if you are not eating it right then and there, it will keep for a few days. Just make sure not to dress it.

I loved their produce section! Chock-freakin-full of tasty-lookin', vibrant, big fruits and vegetables. 10 times better than what Trader Joe's offers. Case in point: the first four avocados I grabbed were all perfectly ready to eat. Never have I ever experienced that. Granted, the prices reflect the quality, but it still felt like a much better deal than Whole Foods! I avoided this place for a long time because I didn't realize they had a garage! It's right there on Harrison next door, so check it out. Note the garage, much like the store, has precious little room to maneuver and you can see that other cars have bumped the pillars and gotten scraped up, so take it slow in there. Next time I stop in, I'm checking out that meat counter. It looked pretty tempting and equally high quality!

Stumbled upon this grocery store after dodging police detours around the corner. These street closures are really getting old, folks! When I saw the name "Community Market", for some reason, I thought it would be an earthy, vegan type of market, but no. It was actually similar to a mini Molly Stones, or maybe even a lower end tiny Draegers (from the Peninsula). Fully stocked shelves in all sections. Plenty of fresh looking produce, seafood, and a fine selection of wines. Even nice E & O products. Who doesn't love E & O liquid hand soaps? Small, but very nice little market with quality products. One downside: Not even a tiny little parking lot in the back. Strictly limited street parking. As I was leaving, I noticed what looked like an over flowing bulletin board. In fact, it was overflowing with post-it notes from neighbors expressing their condolences on the recent death of the owner, Gus Vardakastanis. He was killed in a hit and run accident last year. Upon reading the notes customers left behind, It was clear that he was definitely a beloved member of the community.

His is great. Really nice people. But the cafe needs to allow electronic tipping. Lots of people do not carry cash. Even small business have electric tipping. People in service industry work hard and this seriously cuts into their earning. At this point in modern society - to not allow people to tip electronically is essential disrespectful and harmful to workers.

In the next chapter of my nomadic travels, work life brought me to yet another pocket of SF I've yet to explore - Mission/Potrero Hill! You know, as annoying as it has been to move around so much, it's been just as awesome getting to discover so many new places! Definitely can't argue with having a constant string of new spots to Yelp about, even though that also means my list of reviews to write is even less likely to get any shorter. Oh well...life of a Yelper! Despite how I've reviewed a handful in the past, writing about supermarkets isn't exactly sexy. However, Gus's isn't like just any neighborhood market. While I may not have expected/feared anything bad, it was a pleasant surprised to see how clean and modern this place is! What's more, their array of offerings is pretty legit. Beyond all of the typical staples, they have a terrific selection of local and organic produce, meats, and seafood. Prices are a little higher than the likes of Safeway or Lucky's, but it's still a bit cheaper than Whole Foods. Admittedly though, as great as the market side of Gus's may be, I can't say I've done much grocery shopping here. Rather, every time I've been, it's been to pick up lunch (which probably goes for the vast majority people who come here as well). Made to order sandwiches, DIY salad bar, hot foods, sushi, poke bowls...plenty of options to choose from! There's a small coffee bar as well, in case you're looking for something a bit more...caffeinated. -- FLASHBACK REUBEN - Pastrami Brisket, Sauerkraut, Swiss Cheese, 1000 Island Dressing (Served Hot on Rye Bread) (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/guss-community-market-san-francisco-2?select=Ws-DS0eMh-gyQD2sFwIzkA) Overall, this was fine and did the trick for my pastrami craving, but I probably should've created my own pastrami sandwich. The meat was slightly peppery, moist, and nicely complemented by the Swiss and dressing. The bread was decent as well, but I had my fill of sauerkraut less than halfway through. -- FRENCH DIP - Diestel Farms Roast Beef, Provolone Cheese, House Made Au Jus (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/guss-community-market-san-francisco-2?select=lC3DUujrtCKNlOJ3pdND4g) I thought the meat would be soaked in au jus, but I was so glad to see it on the side! That, as well as how tender and well seasoned the beef. Topped with the melted provolone? Yum. The bread was a little dry on its own, but dipping it into that cup of tasty au jus sure did help! -- 1906 QUAKE - Pepper Turkey, Hot Molinari Salami, Pepper Jack Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Pickle, Pepperoncini, Bell Pepper Mayo (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/guss-community-market-san-francisco-2?select=mgn2Vlh3rgGkSw47onu5LA) Of the sandwiches I tried, this was by far my favorite (and most appealing on their board). Not only was the sandwich pretty large for the money, but it was just really tasty overall. The French roll was soft and crusty, the salami and turkey complemented each other really well, and all of the toppings/veggies were really fresh. Along with the sandwiches (double stamps on Tuesdays!), I've also tried some of the sushi offerings (Rainbow Roll, California Roll) and they're not bad at all. The fish was fresh (which is about all you can ask for), the rice was decently cooked, and the portion/price was rather fair. Clearly, it's not as good as what can get at an actual sushi restaurant, but as far as supermarket sushi goes? Not too shabby. Food aside, Gus's also gets major plus points for the uber friendly staff; whether they're behind the counter or working in the aisles, everyone seems so genuinely nice! Too bad they're so far out of the way from where I live to do my normal sort of grocery shopping. To pick up something fresh and quick for lunch though? Oh I'll definitely be back for that!

I'm a little upset I have to write this review. I have always loved Gus's, and often walk over during my lunch because everything I have purchased from here is great! However, today, I did not have that experience. I went in for their açaí bowl that they make in their cafe. I allowed myself ample time for then to make it (I know sometimes it takes some time to gather and cut the fruit up) and be able to get back to work on time. The girl who took my order was very pleasant. But there was another employee who seemed a little frazzled behind her, she ended up making my bowl. It took over 15 minutes to get my bowl. When I received it, I was pretty upset. Just by looking at it first glance I knew it was not made correctly and it did not look appetizing at all. Because I was already late, I decided to not say anything. But once I opened it, I was even more in shock. There is no strawberries, just blueberries, coconut flakes, in brown mush. I'm so disappointed.

Gus's Community Market is a great place notably for their sandwiches. It is said you shouldn't do your grocery shopping when hungry so at Gus's Community Market you can eat before you shop. There are two vegan sandwiches at the Deli including the tofu sandwich & a spicy sriracha sandwich. I have only had the tofu sandwich yet have had it at least three times. I have a hearty appetite yet this sandwich is amazingly hearty so if you are dining w/ someone split it otherwise have the deli wrap up the other half so you can have it for lunch the next day. I usually pair the sandwich w/ some natural potato chips along w/ a small size of harmless coconut water. On a nice day there is some seating outside that you will most likely share w/ another person or two yet this is alright as it is good to talk to strangers. There is also some seating inside near the juice bar. The juice bar has juices & smoothies. There is also a salad bar along w/ an olive bar if you want to go that route. The tofu sandwich itself is heavy on the tofu. It also has some sprouts & some roasted red peppers. I would like it if it had more veggies yet when in Rome. Gus's Community Market is a great place to shop as there is a nice selection of produce & picked up some organic Tahini here. There is a small bulk section yet nothing like what you will find at Rainbow. I would say Gus's Community Market is a great option to dine & grocery shop in the Mission. If you are looking for speciality items perhaps heading over to Rainbow will be the way to go yet am a fan of Gus's Community Market & will be back!

Small for supermarket standards but it's fully stocked and wide variety of many foods both fresh and packaged. Local and international in sort. They have a fresh meats, seafood section also fresh veggies. Poke and deli made on the spot. Relatively well priced and definitely comparable for the area. And has an outdoor dining area. Not convenient for me because I don't love/work near but it's very walkable. Only found it cause I went thad pG&e. Parking is dreadfully scarce though.

Gus is great, so clean and fresh but my only issue is how they make the gluten free sandwiches. If your going to make gluten free sandwiches you can't have the gluten free bread touch the counter where the other bread is placed because that is called cross contamination. It's like digestion gluten. They need to put something underneath the gluten free bread when they make the sandwich

I like this grocery store a lot. Great wine, meat and cheese selections and everything you need. I just do not like their coffee at all. I spent $14 on 2 drinks and a pastry. I did not like the cold brew or dirty chai latte...it was extremely bitter.

The sandwiches from Gus's market are phenomenal, great meats and quality cheese & bread. These sandwiches are a hearty meal and definitely enough for some delicious leftovers.

I got a Potrero sandwich at the deli for $11. Fine. It has all the veggies, etc., so I get it. But when I asked for another sandwich for my kid - literally just sliced bread and cheese - they wanted me to pay $10! A $1 discount from the regular price of a full deli sandwich?!??!! This place is Safeway food gussied up to look like bi-rite. Their sandwich wrap paper isn't even compostable - it's lined with plastic. Give me a break.

Today will be the last day I ever come to Gus's the new girl at the coffee bar made my plain bagel with cream cheese with the same gloves that she made a lox bagel with. My latte was super cold and flat.

Gus's: my new favorite store and the first place since moving from the East Bay that doesn't make me miss the Berkeley Bowl. Amazing quality, beautiful selection, entirely reasonable prices (Helllloooo Niman Ranch bone in ribeyes for under $20/lb!), super friendly service from people who appear to really like their jobs (in clear contrast to the post-Amazon Whole Foods workers whose looks of resignation and loathing for their newly arranged marriage remind me of Sanza Stark glaring at Ramsey Bolton). If you live in SF and haven't been, do yourself a favor and check it out. And feel free to invite me over for dinner because whatever you make will surely be delicious.

I come by here often for coffee and sometimes the hot lunches since I work around the area. It's similar to any other kind of high end Whole Foods Market - selling products that strut their organic, responsibly raised, non-GMO labels. So expect to pay the prices for those things because this definitely isn't your neighborhood Safeway. I usually go and get the coffee (Chai Iced Latte) at the coffee bar on the side of the store. They have a wide selection of drinks but they aren't super customizable. For example, I wanted a hazelnut latte but they didn't have hazelnut flavor... other than that the service is friendly and quick. They also give out stamp cards - so if you buy 10 you get one free drink! I've also tried some of their hot lunches - which are usually a hit or miss. For a small meal - it's around $5-$7 and it's measured by weight. They have a wide selection of foods - usually ranging from a like 1-2 protein sides, 1-2 different carbs, and a different combination of steamed or stir-fried veggies. Again, it differs everyday. The food is always tasting fresh and for some reason healthy - even though it's sometimes like mac n cheese and fried chicken cutlets... Funny note - this is a pretty healthy super market so don't expect to find any hot cheetos or yummy processed snacks. For example, I asked one of the workers to take me to the fruit snacks aisle cause I was feelin some of those gummy Welch ones.... and he brought me to the DRIED FRUIT aisle... THATS NOT THE SAME THING... LOL but yes, beware it is a healthy place to shop.

Usually amazing, but last Saturday I got some Tuna Salad and it was disgusting. I called and was told the manager would call me back, never did. Paying $7.99 for a small tub of rotten Tuna Salad is not a great experience. Their sandwiches on the other hand are amazing.

New to the area. Been a few months now. Haven't had an issue with customer service or the quality of food. Noticing a theme in these bad Yelp reviews of shitty customer service at the check out counter and an employee yelling a lot and some comments about discrimination. I've talked with a diverse staff. It's not just white employees. I've chatted it up with everyone there. Haven't witnessed any customer discrimination. Everyone has been pleasant and chatted back. I don't think reviewers are being honest about the energy they bring to the check out line. It's not their job to sck yr **** people. That's a work ethos I'm sick of frankly. I strongly doubt these unhappy customers are throwing out kindness at these employees. and I don't believe any employee shoulde be obligated to kiss a** as part of their job. The only employee I've heard about yelling. Was from a friend who's been a very long time regular of Gus's. He yelled at a lady without a mask to get out. Frankly. We're on his side. Frankly. If you're not wearing a mask. I want my checker to abruptly get you out. No I don't think anyone owes people who disregard others safety deserve kindness when being asked to leave. I don't think anyone deserves kindness period if they're not being kind. Want kindness? Be kind then. I don't condone managers screaming at other employees though. If I see that sht. I'm gonna speak up. But otherwise I like all the employees. I like that they get to wear what they want. I like that they're humans. And I like that it isn't a fckng job requirement to kiss the customer'ls ass. I've started friendly conversation with every single checker. Not one has given me attitude. These people sound like entitled rich people taking no accountability for their own attitude. You gotta be positivity if you want it thrown back at you people. I love the checkers. I bring good energy. And the staff has always responded positively. Only request though. Can we get some better soups? There are many good hearty soups with more flavor. Pozole. Cheddar broccoli. You get the idea. The tall checker with the punk patches jacket is our favorite. Specifically because he keeps it real. The world would be better off with more honest authenticity and less butt kissing. Gus's employees are doing fine by me.
