I'm a big fan of Gus's! This location in the Haight doesn't have good parking, but it's convenient and accessible for me by Muni. I mainly come for the deli, which is eligible for SNAP/EBT (as well as the cafe). My go-to's are the 1906 (The Quake) and the Gus's Special on Dutch Crunch. I'm intrigued by their daily and seasonal specials, like the crab sandwich, but haven't actually tried any yet. I love that they have a sandwich stamp card with double stamps on Tuesday's and a free 9th sandwich. I wouldn't recommend the matcha latte from the cafe though. You'll sometimes find fruit and cheese samples throughout the tight aisles. For other things I've tried, their sushi rolls are better than most grocery stores, but I'd recommend the poke bowls over the sushi. Their mini dessert cakes are pretty and nice, especially the mango mousse. They carry Coconut Cult, La Fermiere yogurt, and many of my favorite ice creams (Uji Time at one point, Marianne's, Humphrey Slocombe, and McConnell's). I don't buy my regular produce here though because it's a bit pricier. Gus's is an SF staple! read more

They charge Organic price for Non-organic produce. They send someone to spy on people if a person stays too long at a shelf. The customer doesn't come back. and they overcharge some items to pay him. Walgreen did the same and lost most of their stores in SF. Traders Joe's is the best food store: best reasonable prices for organic produce, no spying on people and happy customer experience. This store was a happy place to shop 40 years ago when the owner was alive. His sister and children are not even around now. Pluses: they make the best Decaf coffee, they is an outdoor seating, and I saw they donate some bags of food at the park to some people. Not sure if it is discounted or donated. They have a good selection of food on some items. read more

I love this store. However, I've been disappointed by the lack of refrigeration at the café over the past three months or so. I haven't been able to purchase my favorite veggie bagel. I was wondering if it might be possible to use the deli area in the mornings so that items requiring refrigeration could still be offered. I hope this gets resolved soon. read more

I wasn't expecting much for a small market right on Haight. The fresh reasonably-priced produce is what drew me in initially. I picked up some mangos, blackberries and apricots. Once inside, I saw that there was a pretty stocked up deli section and an impressive sushi section! I ended up buying a sushi meal for about $15 - the fish was fresh but I would have preferred thicker cuts. (Don't we all?) Needless to say, for a small market like Gus's, it had a good selection. The line may look long but it moves quickly. For a neighborhood market, it's worth a stop. read more

Where did one of the greatest if not greatest guitarist to ever live lived in San Francisco? The late Jimi Hendrix lived what is today is on top of a pet grooming store called Grooming and More and nextdoor there is the former Haight Street Market also known as Gus's Market on Haight street. Back on a Summer of Love strolling through the Haight there is a place which has lots of natural foods and lots of goods and a good place to grab drinks if you are headed to the Buena Vista Park, Panhandle or Golden Gate Park. At Gus's Market shop for groceries and you can grab take out foods like sandwiches called the " Valencia " ( can't escape it) , Hippie Hill, and Banh Mi . You can also build your own sandwiches and even add salad like, chicken, egg, and tuna salad. You may also add sauces like with 1000 Island sauce and Basil Pesto. They also sell bottled sauces like Fish sauce and Ranch dressing ( if it's from a Farm is it still considered Ranch ?) You will also find the other sauce with a good selection of wines like the Pinot Noir. Come take a Summer of Love stroll on Haight which is very "sedating "starting from the cross street of Clayton passing by people on their board "skating " across the street there is a Buffalo Exchange where used clothes be "trading "while on the same block one of the best pizza in the USA at Tony Gemignani's Slice House pizza is being prepared and the cheese is "grating "while people inside who are looking for a table are still "waiting " Inside Gus's people examine the mangoes and berries some are looking at imported goods and are price "evaluating "because the tariffs on some import goods have the prices "inflating" but people be coming back because they find the Haight street shopping experience is "fascinating "and that's why this place on Yelp for years has over a 4 star "rating" read more

Such a cute deli, they have everything you need and the store is clearly super popular as it was completely packed inside! They had tons of sandwich options as well as a poke bar and sushi. They have both premade and made to order sandwiches, and lots of other ready made food options. My only qualm was that they got my sandwich order completely wrong. I did the build your own sandwich option and the woman taking my order definitely had a hard time with it. She only repeated back the meat to me after taking my order and said the wrong thing but I corrected her. When I got my sandwich I was missing 3 of the items I asked for (one of which I paid extra for) and the sandwich had mustard on it which I really do not like. Unfortunately I did not enjoy my sandwich and couldn't even get through half. They really layered on the mustard so even after I scraped off what I could, it was still very strong. It would definitely be better if they had a paper where you could select the boxes for what ingredients you want on your sandwich, that way there's far less room for error. My sandwich looked delicious, and if you like mustard, I'm sure you would've loved it. read more

Gus's Market - Grocery Near Me - San Francisco, California

Food and coffee were exceptional. Service was friendly and efficient. Very much a nieghborhood vibe, as a tourist I felt welcome.

Get on the bus, Gus! This neighborhood market is super cool! Really, it's like two markets in one. On one side, they have the butcher and checkout. On the other is dry goods, produce and alcohol! They have beautiful bouquets of fresh flowers on display, which is super attractive. The fresh produce all looked nice, and they even had some samples! They stressed how their produce was locally grown. They have a wine selection! With a wine steward on site, who was super helpful and they were able to steer us to some nice bubbly California and Spanish wines. Nom! Checkout was super easy. They accept all credit cards. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but where isn't that true in San Francisco? Now this isn't where I'd go for staple goods, like TP or trash bags, but they certainly have all the freshest foods that I'd even need! read more

Its a good place for fresh meat and fresh. However, I try to buy local produce etc this stores fruits etc majority as are from Mexico and Central America. I will not purchase any imported "fresh" products. I want to support our local farmers. Ive been for decades long before it was a trend. Most of the produce and overpriced too. read more

As far as their customer service goes everyone there is nice, attentive and problem solving. When it comes to their produce, it really has gone downhill. Yes, you do find some decent items fairly price but then most of them are almost on the expiring side. Their "organic" products are with-in the "non organic" ones. I understand that the workers have re-stock items but this happens too often, on weekends and on their most busy times for business. It is hard to get around, since the space is very limited. Take a look the picture which to this date I cannot understand why a difference in color of a bell pepper would increase its price dramatically. Also, what kind of "deal" do you actually get when the deal is the same price? Lastly, if I was the manager, I would ask the employees that smoke/use vape to go to the corner so the smell does not persist near the store, this obviously includes asking people not to smoke in the park-let because the smell of cig's ends up inside the store and no one seems to care. read more

Love this market, for a "smaller" market it really has so much! The produce and fruit section is so fresh and so much available. They always have staff cleaning and restocking. The meat and deli is also amazing. And the cheese, oh the cheese so many choices! The sandwiches are large and delicious. They have a great sushi selection too! The aisles are narrow but the place is clean and well stocked. read more

Got a banh mi and it didn't taste like one at all. I could barely taste the pickled carrots and the mayo just looks like regular mayo which is not authentic. The sandwich is big and filling but it just taste like a ham sandwich with mayo. It came out fast and in a timely manner. I would recommend not getting this if you're looking to want a good banh mi. They have many other options! read more

Gus's is great people who work here friendly and helpful it has great selection and super happy it's in my hood

All around a great market for the Haight. Produce, Meat, Beer and Wine...Gus's delivers.

Expensive but a great little market! They have so much stuff here for such a small place. Tons of produce, an amazing food counter with all sorts of options, fresh baked breads, etc. never wanted needed anything they didn't have. Mostly friendly service as well! read more

They have a lot of great stuff, BUT the produce really has gone downhill, it is frustrating when you buy a $10 bag of cherries, and throw it out the next day because of mold. Same thing for other fruits and veggies. I don't have this problem with other stores. If your a local, you will notice it is a hassle shopping because of the constant stocking of goods. Be prepared to make way for carts of goods to roll past you. Don't trip over boxes left in the aisles. You may have to wait for employees to restock items while you wait your turn to shop Overall, the prices are steep. If an item is on sale, it's about to expire. Nowadays, I only shop there when I have a craving for sushi. read more

Awesome Sandwich Roast Turkey Avocado on Dutch Crunch , Staff was Quick and Personable

Their deli sandwiches are HUGE, yummy, and great price point. They also have sandwich punchcards.

This place has fantastic sandwiches. I'm such a sandwich snob and let me tell you, if you haven't tried their sandwiches, you're missing out!!! They do take about 15 minutes to make but it is so so worth it. Pro tip: grab a sando on a Tuesday for double stamps. And if you're not punching your card to secure the free sandwich bag, wyd??? This pace is 12/10!! Also staff here is super nice :) read more

BEST BANH MI SANDWICH EVER!!!!! Huge sandwich, so def worth the price in my opinion. I would ask for extra veggies as well

This is my favorite local grocery near me! I get all my produce from here- friendly staff! They are more affordable than Whole Foods, and have a lot of vegan/veg healthy options. I also sometimes get sushi from there. Pretty decent sushi- the spicy salmon roll wasn't spicy at all but still a delicious meal. read more

Consistently Gus'- now called Haight Street Market- has been excellent for so many of my grocery needs. They have phenomenal fresh produce, tons of good beverages, tasty sandwiches, amazing sushi, and homemade soups, salad and entrees- and things like salsas, hummus, guacamole made in house! They also feature an impressive cheese selection, wine, a butcher. I did not give them 5 stars because they only have some vegan & vegetarian options, but when they expand, if they include more I will be over the moon- and it can be one stop shopping. I love the staff and the experience of going there, except on busy summer weekends. read more

We had severe food poisoning with the sliced Diestel Turkey from the deli. It was so painful. Stay away from deli meat!

I absolutely love this cute neighborhood market!I'm here at least a couple times a week. The workers and produce are a gem :)

The selection is pretty good, but overpriced. The store's floor plan is annoying, as the produce leads to three long aisles of product. You can't get to the check out register without taking a detour through overpriced stuff. Worst of all, the blond check out girl is rude as heck. Always unfriendly, I wonder if she hates her job? read more

Love this market! The fruits taste so fresh and sweet I loved the peaches. I tried the lunch sandwhiches at the deli and they were awesome. I would come again read more

Usually love this market. I got some scallops from the seafood counter, when I got home I realized while they gave me scallops, they charged me for different more expensive product. The difference was just a few dollars and I should have been more careful and look over all my items I guess, but it's still a bummer. read more

Great pre-made lunches available for pick up including sushi and poke bowls. The rest of the grocery store is much larger than it appears from the outside and includes your normal staples in addition to things like coffee beans and pies. I've never had to wait in line here and overall the store is very clean. read more

I must admit, I only come here for 2 things the deli and produce. But with that said, I'm sure you'll be happy with the entire store. Great sandwiches! Fresh & Delicious produce! I'm a little late to the party in learning that the owner (Gus) was killed in a tragic hit & run accident. So sad and RIP, Gus! My ex girlfriend lived around the corner and I remember coming here early in the mornings before work and chatting with Gus. Super nice guy who took pride in a locally owned market. read more

I used to really love going to Gus's as a nice local neighborhood spot I could support (so I'm giving 2 stars for my previous positive experiences) but I really hope Gus's addresses their recent customer issues with the deli. The last three times I went to the deli my order had been wrong in some capacity (sandwich missing toppings, regular mayo being used instead of veganaise, advertised hot sandwich not even toasted, etc). The deli is usually pretty busy when I go so I always let it slide because it's not a huge deal to me but this time I opened my sandwich in the car before getting home and there was a hair in the wrapping and a dead fly squished into the top. I used my sandwich card to redeem the fly sandwich so I just popped back in to show them that there was a bug on my food and request that they give me back a full punch card so i could redeem the sandwich later since I didn't have time to wait for the deli to make another. The cashier (Karen I think) made me totally regret walking back in made a whole scene out of me just asking for a punchcard when the store was already crowded and the line was long. She asked who checked me out and I told her who, but that seemed irrelevant since all I was asking for was a full punchcard so that I could get the same sandwich later. She then involved another employee (still not the person who checked me out) and then got mad at him for punching my card. As I walked out, she went behind the deli counter and showed them my sandwich and said "that's not a fly!" It was not only unprofessional but embarrassing and untrue--see picture below. I'm not writing this review to get anyone in trouble, I'm just hoping management gets the deli to be functional again. I felt compelled to write a review because every time I go to Gus's, all the employees are really stressed and whenever there's a problem, it seems like whatever protocol is in place isn't very effective. I'm just hoping Gus's shows their employees appreciation and considers what they need to succeed on the job so I can support my neighborhood spot again. I also want to note the person picking up their sandwich immediately before mine had three sandwiches incorrect and had to wait for the deli to remake them-- so I know I'm not the only one who's had problems there! I'll update my review if the issues are addressed since I don't like to leave negative reviews! read more

Gus's Market - fly squished onto my tofu sandwich - Grocery Near Me - San Francisco, California

Today 4/6/2024 I visited this really cute store . They have a great selection of fresh vegetables, fruits, and pretty much everything you need for your grocery shopping. They even make sandwiches at the counter if you feel like having lunch outside. It was my first time there, and I absolutely loved it. I did not have any grocery shopping but I picked up a box of chocolate macaron bites, and they taste amazing! Unfortunately I ate half of the box before I take a picture. lol read more

My partner and I moved to Haight Ashbury at the beginning of 2020 and have been so grateful to have such an excellent grocery store nearby. It is truly a gem that can be overlooked if you're just visiting Haight St for retail shopping, etc. The thing I probably enjoy most about HSM (aka, Gus') is the diversity of options. For a relatively small store, they always seem to have everything I'm looking for, whether it's a certain produce item, plant-based/vegan option, or delicious beer. Speaking of produce, the quality is so on point. For those of you tired of TJ produce that goes bad instantaneously, go to Gus. The veggies and fruit taste and look great. And while the prices are certainly not in the TJ range they are definitely reasonable. Ultimately, you get what you pay for and hands down I would rather support Gus vs the corporate WF nonsense down the street. Also, I would be remiss not to mention the giant deli section they have on the left side of the store. While I haven't had any food from here yet I am looking forward to it. read more

I love visiting this grocery store! They have such fresh produce and super friendly staff. I also love getting their deli sandwiches, which are great value for the price. One sandwich will easily last me two lunches and they have a loyalty punch card so when you get 8 sandwiches, you get a free one. They also have "double punch tuesdays" so you can make great progress on your sandwich card if you go then. read more

My go to grocery store in the city. The options for vegetables and fruits are really fresh. Never have I gotten any fruits or vegetables from here that are bad or sour or too ripe. They always have good product quality products. The poke is another good option from here. You can customized your poke bowl it to whatever you want like adding avocado, cucumber, crab salad (for no extra charge). The sushi is also another option. It's made fresh in the store. The tiger roll is my favorite one. I also like the build your own sandwiches from the store one sandwich and reticular that I always get is the is the Gus a special which is a turkey pesto Apple sandwich. The apples really complement the turkey slices and pesto. Lastly, the employees working at the store are super nice they're really sweet and so open to have a conversation with you while they are bagging up your groceries. Finding this store was like finding a gem in the city! read more

Great selection of fresh food and wine. The staff is friendly and the store is cute and welcoming.

WHOA! I was on Haight St. on my way to an art store nearby and did a double take when I peered into Gus's market. There was something so bright and fresh about it. I popped in...just to see what was going on since I've never noticed this place. I shop every single day since I cook for a living and love finding great produce. This store is just amazing. The produce is absolutely amazing. The deli and meat department is one of the best I've seen in the city and I am loyal to my current butcher but I would buy anything here. Well, I did the next day actually. The problem for me is parking since well, you know how Haight St. is. I don't want to walk 4 blocks with heavy bags to find my car. So I just wandered around wide eyed checking out their great prices and upscale products. I bought a few things and one of their great shopping bags and spent the rest of the day thinking about Gus's. The next day I drove out to the store in the outer Sunset where there is plenty of parking and again, was just amazed at what a fantastic store this is. 43rd Ave. and Noriega is such a trek for me but worth it! I can't wait to go back and try their ice cream bar. Wish I had photos. Next time... read more

I've been coming in here for over 20years, i see that only time helps this place. if Gus was alive, he would've put himself unground. Can someone teach/show ,WYATT, how to care for groceries specially if he check/ring the customers? Please. He really does care, no Hello,hi, nothing, back to the person he checks. The self entitlement is so high that irks anyone read more

Love the market and all of the employees, but the establishment needs to fix the floors, which are uneven and UNSAFE.

Nice products, though overpriced. Super cold and unhelpful staff who seem so annoyed constantly. I notice they are nicer to regular (white) customers who they've gotten to know, but otherwise are really unwelcoming. I usually will greet the cashiers and instead of saying hello back, they go straight for "you need a bag?"... idk, there must be something in the air these days read more
