Wow first time here. Great vibes. Great plants and flowers outside for purchase. Great items for GF . Pizzas to cook at home or have it prepared. Great deli selections and so many more. Customer service was amazing . Great service at the deli counter. I was going to purchase a Cookie for myself. Then the person said we have cheesecake! Omg this was what I needed. Purchased Lemon blueberry cheesecake and a lime cheesecake for another time. Prices are on the higher side- you are paying for good quality! I love this!!!! Treat yourself and body better. You are worth it! read more

We LOVE the ugly Produce section. And the pizzas!!! A long time ago, my mother in law bought a Christmas tree here and it died really quickly and the store wouldn't give her a refund. And it was a family joke that she would never step foot in Harbor Greens again. But then my husband brought her here - for pizza I think - and she gave up her grudge. Seriously best pizza in UP. Plus a VERY interesting liquor selection full of of unusual choices. read more

Why go to Panera when you can have fresh, fully loaded, and delicious sandwiches in the deli! Have pizza if you want. Grab sodas and chips from the market and sit and enjoy. Love the friendly workers here! Indoor seating with 2 sets of 4-seaters. There's an outdoor seating area as well. Nice, quiet, well lit on a Tuesday evening. Wish I had noticed the soup & sandwich combo. read more

This place is awesome! I feel like I forget how awesome it is until I go back. They have both cooked pizzas and take and bake, as well as a full deli, sandwich bar, soups, and breakfast sandwiches. The pizza is phenomenal. They also have a large assortment of fresh fruits and vegetables and other items, including beer, cider, and liquor. read more

I've heard a lot of good things about Harbor Greens over the years so I decided to go a bit out of my way to check it out. I'm really glad I did! The selection of oranges/mandarins is lacking right now and Harbor Greens filled that gap for me! I was able to pick up two different types of mandarins that I've never had before and I really enjoyed them! The produce section is a bit on the smaller size, but it packs a punch! I ended up going down almost every aisle in the store and this is a place I'll definitely come back to. Kinda reminds me of Tacoma Boys with a slightly different flavour. HG has a wide variety of store brand products and the ones I bought have worked out very well for me. I've heard for a lot of people that the sandwiches are really good. I didn't get one this time, but I did take the time to check out the counter and peek over people's shoulders. That entire section smells amazing and the sandwiches and pizza both look fantastic. Add in the fact that parking is easy and the cashier was friendly and efficient? UP is further south than I usually go, but I'm definitely willing to take the extra time to come to Harbor Greens! read more

They have the best produce,the healthiest plants,pizza by the slice and the butcher counter

Nice friendly neighborhood place to pick up lunch or snacks. Pleasant staff, easy access/parking.

John at the deli counter was amazing and so helpful and up beat it was refreshing to see someone so happy the food is always amazing I normally get someone to go to the store for me. I decided to go in and I was not disappointed. read more

Great produce,great meat,great deli salads,awesome soups. And employees are super! And flowers.

Harbor Greens Harbor Greens is a fine foods grocery store with two locations; Gig Harbor and Tacoma. Chad Roy and Scott Teodoro opened their Gig Harbor store in 2007. They opened the Tacoma location at University Place in 2013. I make a point of visiting at least one if not both of these stores every time I visit Gig Harbor, which is at least twice a year. These photos are from my visit to the UP store in September 2022. In addition to carrying high quality, and hard-to-find products, Harbor Greens has the best produce I've ever seen. In the summer, 70% of their fruits and vegetables come from nearby farms. Harbor Greens has a popular deli where you can order hand crafted sandwiches, salads, and soups. The UP location has a larger dining area with seating for 28. Highly Recommended!!! read more

Fresh fruit, nice plants, terrific meat and fish and good wine. Watch the weekly specials for some good deals.

When we first started shopping here it was exciting, fresh produce, unique items, but the last few years it has fallen short of those qualities. 1. We purchased fresh flowers, or so we thought, when we put them in the vase the petals fell off. The management was reluctant to believe this. 2. We have enjoyed the deli sandwiches and salads, but they are very slow. So while waiting, I noticed a nice selection of cookies. I bought 5, costing close to $25.00. I got them home and found them to be stale and hard as a rock. I was not happy! I returned them, the deli manager found one that barely had soft center and said he thought they were fine and didn't off to replace them or compensate us. They have lost a very excellent customer. There are just too many other good places that stand behind their products. And I agree with other reviews their pizza is terrible! read more

The best neighborhood grocery store. Ever. Don't sleep on their pizzas and sandwiches. Joe and Co. know how to hook it up. All the staff are friendly and while the prices are a little higher, you know it's to keep a place like this open. Long live Harbor Greens - But RIP to the self-serve Kombucha keg. read more

Very overpriced and poor quality. Extremely disappointed with seafood and meat quality. Can't understand how these guys ca compete in this market read more

One of my favorite grocery stores in Tacoma. Super cute, farmers market-ish feel with lots of flowers and plants in the entrance. They have a TON of local & organic produce, with pretty great prices. Their butcher shop has great marinaded meats & plenty of fish. I always check the weekly ad to see whats on sale ( get the marinated chicken thighs when you can - so GOOD). Great wine section, pre made salsas, and a pizza's. They also have a cute section with little gifts & a section of hard alcohol. You can find (almost) anything your heart &/or stomach desires at Harbor Greens. read more

Agree with the last post... customer service is TERRIBLE! Not sure if the managers here got the memo that being rude to people is not cool. Fine with me because I won't ever be shopping here again. I truly hope this place goes out of business. Being rude to people who are supporting a small and LOCAL chain... forget it. I'd rather save my $ and go to Gross Out... can get the same stuff there for 1/3 of the price. This place is a rip off and the people who manage it are RUDE. 10 OUT OF 10 DO NOT RECOMMEND. read more

Also, I only drink "fizzy" water. My husband got his choice, a Dr. Pepper, but I can only get a good taste from canned or bottled mineral or sparkling water. Sigh, disappointed again. And cookies were bad, I'd rather had Oreos or Chips Ahoy. NOW, the store itself, is *****. Peop!e, even in Sandwiches, ARE GREAT!**** Also, we bought very good produce***** & found our favourite brand of soup on the shelf!! So, store is WONDERFUL*****! Maybe we're not good judges of Tacoma area sandwich boxes. We do appreciate Harbor Green overall, maybe we don't travel enough! One more thing, the people we stayed with bought meat there & it was 5 stars! read more

I love this hidden grocery store! Great selection of beer and wine, artisan made sandwiches and pizza is always ready for you. Wait... their selection of gifts and plants are great too! read more

A local grocery store with local product! Seriously, this place is a gem and carries many of my favorites that i can not find at the regular grocery store. I discovered this place thanks to my parents! They carry everything from fresh produce to some of the best milk you'll ever have ( glass bottles with jersey cow milk) and they have a great meat and cheese selection as well and wine for days! Harbor Greens cater to the more health orientated customer offering many organic and even some vegan classics. The few times I've been here customer service has been excellent and sometimes you can find some awesome deals here. You can't beat 99/lb for honey crisp apples, best deal ever. They also have a selection of the Bitchin sauce which is hard to find, and the other day I found some of that ellenos yogurt they sell at the Pikes Place market, now it had a pretty little price tag on it but it's so delicious I had to pull a YOLO and get it. Coming here is truly a reward, you never know what goodies you'll leave with. read more

Love shopping here excellent produce!! I have been here at least a dozen times. We also love the beer and cider selection.

Not happy, Employee was very rude to my spouse. He would not help her and directed her to a basket of culled vegetables I stead of getting out of her way and allowing her to reach for the item he was refilling and culling. The employee was a tall white guy with long hair. We have been going to HG ever since it has opened here. Our daughter has had issues with same employee. Too bad! read more

We love this neighborhood grocery store! They have a solid meat, seafood, and cheese selection. They also stock our favorite sparkling wine! Their deli is good and they have some really good produce as well. read more

The deli here is absolutely amazing. I normally get the mikes midday and it's awesome. I highly recommend it.

I love getting j's everyday sandwich minus the sprouts you can get it warmed up or cold love the atmosphere of this place really relaxed and they have a lot of different things to eat read more

What a cute store! They have a nice middle-of-the-road selection for people who might shop at other local produce-heavy markets and natural markets. There's more here than you'll find at a produce-only place and less than a conventional grocery store, hitting the sweet spot for a mid-week pick up to make dinner a little less boring. A nice selection of seasonal produce, a meat counter with a few unusual cuts at a time to go with the standard stuff, and a pretty decent cheese selection. Some later hours might be nice and the area around the registers is a tad crowded. Worth a stop! read more

I haven't done much shopping here but I don't think it's much different than the other higher end markets. What I do love about this place though, are their starter vegetable and herb plants you can buy. I've purchased 3 tomato plants at the start of summer, and all three are doing really well. Bought lettuce, and some herbs and also are healthy and doing well! read more

Today, 9/9/22 6:00pm Beyond poor customer service. A snippy deli pizza girl told me "don't give me attitude...its too busy" because I questioned the base on my gluten free pizza...bacon chicken ranch as it had all red sauce chicken and cheese...no ranch. She offered to add ranch. I only know this to be a white pizza. I never raised my voice...I asked for a manager...I described what she said...he told me to fill out the form they will make it again...but never I'm sorry...he began to walk away. I told him this was poor customer service. I said the first thing one says to a customer is 'I'm sorry'...he wasn't interested and he told me "GET OUT OF MY STORE AND DON'T EVER COME BACK AGAIN!" Wow..never fear...I won't be back. I usually shop in Gig Harbor spending several hundred dollars a month. I usually pre order ahead for gluten free pick up in GH but occasionally call to pick up in UP on short notice. Everyone has always been so nice....not today. Mrs. Gold will not be a Harbor Greens customer ever again. read more

This place is fantastic. The only place I can find alfalfa sprouts! It's down the street from Whole (Paycheck) Foods in UP which I was worried, but I don't think I need to worry. I have seen H. Greens quite busy, their prices are very reasonable, the veggies quality is fantastic, a big selection of beverages and the workers are super friendly and helpful. Got a couple a pizzas there a they are really good. H. Greens will accommodate whatever you want to do with your pie. Very recommended store. read more

HG have absolutely Amazing sandwiches. Next is the Jason Jewel's Pizza and for snacks you have to try their own chips and salsa, you cannot go wrong with either of these. Employees have been friendly and supportive read more

I like this store. It is very nice. It reminds me of the Fresh Market... only much smaller. I was looking for some local honey, and since the local farmers markets are not up and running yet I decided to see if this place had any. I found my honey in there, and picked up a little produce as well. read more

The staff here are so friendly. Great selection of high-quality foods. The butcher said he liked my hat and that made my day!

Harbor Greens is owned and operated by two local families and has two locations: one in Gig Harbor and the other in University Place. This review is for the University Place location. This little gem of a grocery store covers all the basics you might need. The real gem is the meat and sea food department. The butchers are knowledgeable and take a pride in offering ethically raised and harvested products. Produce is fresh and reasonably priced. Customer service is outstanding! read more

They have a really great selection and some cool stuff you can't find many other places! The veggies looked awesome! The staff was really friendly! The isle are really narrow and they had so many employees with restocking at once it's almost like impossible to shop with a shopping cart and get around. I know this is really pathetic but I had to leave in the middle of my shopping because I wasn't able to get down any isle because of all the employees stocking and not giving customers any room kind of gave me an anxiety attack and just had to get out of there! : ( so if anyone is claustrophobic I would avoid this place, i'll probably just stick with Whole Foods in the future read more

This place makes me miss the corner fresh markets of New York City. The local options, personal interactions with employees and overall feel of Harbor Greens is just so quaint. I love that it's so one-stop-shop. Their dinner options are fantastic. Whether you're looking for unique pizzas, fresh made sandwiches, or a protein prepped to take home and cook they have it! I love the sandwiches they come up with, or if you're just looking for a snack while you shop, the premade selections they have in the cooler display are wonderful. The pizzas are enormous and an incredible value. Plus who can beat an old school meat counter? They offer myriad of local items along with items catered to those with unique needs. Their produce selection is fresh and always well priced. I could spend hours traipsing thru their garden selection and planning my future yard. If you're in the area, consider it for your next grocery trip or just stop in for a sandwich! read more

Sandwiches & meats make this place worth a regular stop. Vey fine selection of produce & wines

I went there for the first time today because a friend told me that they have a spot with discounted produce. I'm a huge fan of cutting down food waste. I did a couple of laps around the store to browse and try and find this place of which my friend spoke. I sampled some cheese and thought, eh... this is like any other small fancy shop. If you can afford to shop here I'm sure it's nice. The local eggs were reasonably priced so I picked up a carton. I just so happened to walk back into the produce section when the guy was putting stuff on the "ugly shelf". Cool. So basically everything on these shelves (at the front of the store by the veggies) is a little too ripe or "ugly". I ended up buying five bags of various fruits and veggies and now have a ton of delicious guacamole. I probably wouldn't buy much else in this store because I am pretty frugal and I cook all of my meals. I don't need all the fancy stuff (no judgment). Two thumbs up for their ugly shelf idea and also their plastic bags (my reusable bags were full and in my car at the time) have this neat feature underneath that makes them more durable and if you take the time to investigate, they encourage you to recycle. Very cool. read more

You won't find better sandwiches, pizza, quiche, or a more amazing team of great individuals! Many thanks to all!
