His prices were very reasonable to me. I had a great time walking around . Picking up so many new food items. I loved the honey bun donuts. Customer service A1! Thank you for being so kind!

Great spot, once I couldn't afford Pine Sol and some pet cleanup spray at the same time so the guy…read moreat the front was kind enough to let me pay him back another day, since I'm a regular. Open REAL late, usually 1am sometimes, nice spot, good for the quick needed baking supplies, late night munchies, or if you just want a cheap drink and dessert to go with your food from next door. Some items are more pricey than the CVS down the road, but then again if you don't have a car and don't wanna walk, then this place and two dollars extra beats an additional 5 minutes walk to a CVS that might not even be open at the right times listed online, right :) And, small businesses are much nicer. I dig that they remember me when I come in, it's nice. Plus the guys working the front are nice and friendly, very chivalrous and maybe even flirty. (Especially the old man, maybe too flirty but lol sometimes i come in looking busted so i take it as a compliment usually.) Excluding Abdul, but he's got manners, usually. On another note, Abdul the young one used to piss me off in middle school, if you're reading this, I still don't like you, man. :) But everything else about the store is great, so I'm not gonna be petty and rate it lower.

This Newsstand is Iconic !!!!!…read more It's been in this location for over 60 or more years !!!! It is the Mecca for Anything in News Media and Print!!! In this Digital Age Of The Internet this is a Rarity!! I remember as a Teenager stopping in and Picking Up a Copy of The Wall Street Journal in my old E Trade and Charles Schwab Days!!!

Horrible customer service. I spent more than $80 at this place and you would expect them to try to…read moremake things right when they fuck up by selling broken sealed liquor, but nope! I didn't notice until I got home and gave them a call right away and all they said was they would check the cameras and get back to me (we all know what this means). Lo and behold! They get back to me and fantastically, their cameras are so crisp and high tech that they can see that the seal was not broken when we left. Since the seal was already broken, we opened it to see and that shit was so fucking chunky it was disgusting. It was the moonshine orangesicle. What a load of bullshit this shitty establishment is. Fuck these cheapskates and fuck this place. Don't go here unless you like getting fucked over.

Sometimes the clientle of a place can severly affect the rating of the location. This liquor store…read moreis the latest open in the area and shares a wall with The Ruby Room so of course there are always more than a few drunks "shopping" there. And last night was no exception. As my puppy and I approached along 14th street I could see 3 extremely drunk thuggish types urinating in unison on the wall and sidewalk with no attempt to hide their jewels. I slowed my walk to a tip toe hoping they'd hurry up and finish so I wouldn't have to deal with it as I walked past. 2 of the 3 finished but one of them was a marathon pisser and no matter how slow I moved I was getting closer. At long last he finished and began zipping up just as I walked past him into the entrance of the store. He stopped buttoning up, grabbed my arm and said "yo look, come here and talk to me for a min" YUCK!!!! I've now been pulled cloese enough that both my dog and my feet are in a piss puddle. WTF!!! I freaked, told him how nasty he was much to the delighted humor of his friends, glared at the employee who was outside smoking, watching the whole thing happen without making any attempt to stop it, I gave them 2 stars for their late night hours and for the nice super young cashier that works late most nights. He's always nice and polite to me. But they need to get the people that hang out there under some control because some variation of this event happens every time I go there, whether or not my boyfriend is with me.

I have been here many times. Excellent products, and an excellent family owned business!!…read more The owner of this business is a very courageous man. He came to the aid and protected a woman who was being robbed in front of this business in February 2021. The owner was arrested by the Oakland Police Department for that act of heroism. The incompetent Oakland Police Department should be ashamed to have arrested and caged a hero. Arresting that store owner was an act of injustice! Unless responding to an emergency in an affluent neighborhood, when seconds count, OPD is always hours away. OPD's main office is actually just a few blocks away from this location. Criminals apparently are not deterred by OPD. Yet, they shamefully arrest this man? Sir, the community and people stand by you and will support you. God bless you and your business!!
