Street Tacos at Lagunitas Grocery Store! These tacos are as good as the ones we had from a taco stand on the zocalo in the tiny town of Santa Cruz, Mexico (north of Puerto Vallarta). An unlikely place for great food, the long-standing Lagunitas Grocery store serves up fresh food, and the best chocolate milk shake in the county! Be sure to stop in here on your way west, along Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, for a snack or a meal. You'll be glad you did. The owner, Loring, is friendly and cares about his customers, and his food. Say hi to him! read more

My lord, I cannot stop ordering that Rueben sandwich. And I never will. Took home half of it last night, and after my husband ate it he said, "I want you to get that every time you are in the area." Oh I will. RIP waistline. You guys are great. Someday I might even try something else. read more

Rare venture out to the coast. Saw the sign and popped in to see what they had. Wow. Sign said best Mexican food in West Marin. They weren't kidding even though the friendly good natured owner Loring said they might be the only Mexican place in W Marin. ! Funny guy, nice staff and a really good burrito! Very impressed by the options and can't wait to go back. Highly recommended ! read more

Lagunitas General Store - Grocery Near Me - Lagunitas, California

This store/deli is my local and I come here for staples but I have discovered that they probably have one of the best burritos in the county and I would put their burrito up with even some of the better places in San Francisco lots of flavorful meat with all the usual accompaniments and for a decent price and the bonus is that they even make their own hot sauce to go with it read more

Super cute local west marin grocery with a nice variety of the type of things you're looking for when you want nourishment right away. Great staff. read more

Love Love Love this stop on our way out or back to Samual P or the coast. It has been a favorite of my family for as long as I can remember, and the New ownership doesn't disappoint either. Friendly service and conversation along with great food you can't go wrong.. Thank you owners and staff of Lagunitas Groceries and Deli for sticking around for another generation to enjoy stopping off for that ice cream on the way back from the beach or that box of wood for our campfire at Sam P, or my sons favorite dish your meatloaf. Thank you ! Thank you ! read more

I have to say goodbye to a once great place. This is an update to my previous review: I don't think Loring and Jules own this place anymore. It has gone downhill. The pastrami sandwich, tabouleh and potato salad were terrible. We always get these items and they are not the same quality or count. The pastrami was not of the high quality (and two small slices), rye bread was more like balloon bread. We asked for everything on it including swiss cheese. No cheese, only mayo no mustard, a thin slice of tomato and a small piece of lettuce. No onions, pickles or anything else they normally put on the sandwich. The tabouleh had no bulgar, mostly herbs, and the potato salad was mostly mayo. There was an older woman who I believe now owns the place. She was a bit cranky, not friendly. If she thinks she is going to do well by lowering the quality and standards - she is wrong! After years of going here on our way to Pt. Reyes, we will no longer be going back. I will be sure to tell everyone I know to not bother to stop in unless they want a cup of coffee. The coffee is good, but don't think of getting anything else unless you want to be disappointed! read more

"Last stop before the park" is right. This quaint, eclectic store and deli has no lack of charm. It has a lot of the things you might find at any other convenience store but it also has a good deli and sells a lot of local artisanal goods, such as soap and coffee. It also has a few small places you can sit down and eat, both indoors and outdoors. The people were all friendly. The prices are a little high, but as to he expected. I look forward to returning. read more

I had an excellent sandwich and their delicious homemade chili. Service was great, prices are good, food is great, location is great, and the owner is a really nice guy. I live close by and have been meaning to go in for a while. I'm glad I did and I will definitely return. read more

This is a true gem mountain stop before you enter the state parks. The staff here is beyond friendly. Very nice people that make you feel like you are at home. I was impressed with the inventory as some places in mountain towns can be a bit lackluster. They have a deli and some really nice meats, pasta salads and even taquitos! I was also happy to find some candles that were my souvenir scents to bring the mountains back to the city, along with other goodies. They even have some eclectic, hard to find sodas. I am looking forward to my next trip to Lagunitas and this store. You will not be disappointed! read more

I am sorry to have to write this review, but it's been a long time coming. For 12-1/2 years I have lived in the neighborhood of this grocery store/deli, I was there when it first opened under the new owner, have purchased items there and have frequently bought food at the deli. I have two major complaints, and after today I am certain I will never go back. For one thing, the last time I ordered their special "taco" specialty on the menu (which I obviously liked because I ordered it often), the owner went off on me big time, accusing me of being "picky" about the food and then he went on to cite all these other times in the past that I have complained which were not true. I think he was just having a bad day and decided to take it out on me by sandbagging and making up stories. I told him as he followed me out to my car and continued ranting and accusing me, that "I don't have to come here any more, you know". He said nothing. I never went there after that, but today (many months later), I HAD to buy something there because I have no car today and I needed to buy a bag of cat litter and I can walk to the store from my house. I noticed he had a whole new, state of the art electronic cashier system I was shocked to see that he had charged me a debit card surcharge fee of .28 cents. Not a lot, granted, BUT, does he realize that charging surcharge fees for the use of debit/credit cards is ILLEGAL in California?!! Please note: In this article online: https://www.ncsl.org/research/financial-services-and-commerce/credit-or-debit-card-surcharges-statutes.aspx#:~:text=Surcharge%20prohibited.,cash%2C%20check%20or%20similar%20means., it clearly states "Ten states prohibit credit card surcharges and convenience fees: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Oklahoma and Texas." Not only that, but the total price of said bag of cat litter was TWICE AS MUCH as what it would normally cost in a regular supermarket. Surely, that's more of a markup than is actually necessary and fair. I paid $7.85 for a small bag of cat litter!! I am sorry to have to post this, Loring, because I really wanted to be a friendly neighbor, but I don't like the way you treat me, and I don't like some of your business practices. The one I mention here is illegal. What else going on in the store is also illegal, I wonder? I really don't care if you hate me at this point, or if you talk to all the neighbors about me. There is something in this place that is not right and doesn't feel very "Valley neighborly". Surcharging fees for debit/credit cards is illegal, and I don't ever want to be criticized and ranted on ever again as a customer and patron. As a senior in the community, I feel very uncomfortable going in that store. read more

Before you start reading, this is more a reminder than it a review. That said, total date idea. Went to hike pioneer Tree Trail not too far from here (peep my AllTrails account). It was an easy 2 mile loop but had tons of picnic tables and I don't think would get too busy considering it's proximity to mt tam and Stinson beach. Went and grabbed a sandwich afterwards...smarterest thing to do would to get it before the hike ‍. Anyway, a good amount of food options for a mom and pop grocery store - burgers burritos and sandos. I want with a turkey on Dutch with some added bacon. The bread was a bit tough but the amount of turkey made up for it. Also got a bag of chips and soda for $14 which was a good price since I saved the other half of the sando. Anyway, they sell wine and such - grab a bottle, a sando, hike picnic then total make out sesh. FYI it's dumb ideas like this that I'm single. Anyway, go try it and let me know how it goes. Standard catch phrase -ant read more

Lagunitas General Store - a sandwich and a can of diet coke - Grocery Near Me - Lagunitas, California

This place has had its up and downs over the past 20 years and today (May 31, 2021) they nailed it. Great sandwiches and thoughtful service. It was super busy and there was some confusion on whether or not one of our cheese steak sandwiches had been completed or not. The guy (probably an owner because he cared like an owner) jumped on it and said he's fix a fresh one right away, and comp a dose of extra meat for it. He ran to the back room to get it going, but in the mean time one of their employees found the missing sandwich and handed it to us. While we were eating, the owner guy came dashing out only to realize we had already been satisfied. He said "Oh, well, I guess this is my lunch." Everything was delicious. Ample serving sizes. Great time. Definitely back on the map as a must do on trips to Point Reyes. Looking forward to our next visit! read more

they need to clarify what they have when. called and was told no breakfast but went anyway thinking i would eat tacos. guess what? no tacos or mexican food or anything beyond a few items in deli case. those big photos of menus youre seeing on yelp? those are movable chalkboards. we showed up for sunday breakfast lunch food at 12:42 and there was nothing i wanted to eat among the few items available. really wish i had gone somewhere else since your choices in the town are limited during the many times the store is not serving hot food. read more

Wonderful place to grab a bite or drink. The lady in the counter recommended tacos, falafel wrap and a few side items. All items were delicious and tasty. Need to swing by again. The place is taking all necessary precautions to keep everyone safe. read more

I can't say enough lovely things about this place! It is always such a delight to visit, the staff is always friendly & available, they have a lot of my favorite drinks & snacks at the ready when I'm on my way thru, with plenty of parking! There aren't other options along Sir Francis Drake that even come close to the selection & convenience of the Lagunitas Grocery & Deli, & Loring the new owner is the nicest guy, fully dedicated to serving his customers & community, I have gone out of my way to visit this deli many times, with many more times to come soon!! Thank You! read more

Great, friendly and hardworking local staff have really revitalized this funky grocery store and deli since they bought it earlier this year. They have a very good selection of homemade foods, plus the usual items you expect to find in a smaller convenience store, including beer and ice. read more

These guys have killer tacos! If you're heading to West Marin or heading back this is the place to stop to get you taco fix. Awesome people, fresh ingredients and delicious. You won't be disappointed! read more

This place is everything I love about California under one roof: delicious food, great wine and beer selection (with some obscure locals-only deep cuts), plus anything and everything you could want just after a bike ride (which is why we were there today). The sandwiches are varsity-level DELICIOUS and new owner Loring Jones (who is a total delight) tells me they're doing some new things with the menu: more Mexican food, more breakfast items, more reasons to go back again and again. Never been there? Get your butt over to Lagunitas Groceries & Deli. The whole experience today made me want to sign up for a daylong at Spirit Rock and stop there on the way. read more

Awesome place! Always greeted with a smile and great customer service! The owner and staff are more than accommodating with special request, as in making great lettuce wraps! They're now making cheeseburgers, which my husband claims to be one of the best he ever had! Tacos, ceviche, Caesar salad, deviled eggs, etc. are all delicious! Love this place and we are so lucky to have this gem in the valley! read more

Great place for a sandwich and chips! Changed ownership this year and it has been an improvement in the menu and service. The new owner Lori is an awesome human being and does his best to greet and get to know every customer who walks through the door. His staff are great too, especially his right hand Erin who is a literal queen read more

The service here is unmatched. The owners of the deli recognized our faces from the first time we came and asked us how we were doing! The food feels like it came straight from an at home kitchen. read more

I stopped in for a bite on my way to the beach. New owner is fabulous and the burrito was delish! Definitely be back. Great customer service, great selection, and such a neat location. read more

The perfect supply stop while heading into Samuel P Taylor National Park. It is literally the last place you can pick up supplies while heading into the park from the Forest Knolls side. Wide variety of items available and the deli is to die for. Both ownership and staff really put their hearts into the business and it is reflect in the food and ambiance. Not just sandwiches, a wide variety of gourmet foods with a Central American flair. It really is a must stop before going into the park or heading out to the beach! read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!! Great food, beautiful atmosphere and fantastic service!! They have such an amazing selection of food and really treat their customers well!! I cannot recommend this place enough!! Please go and experience the magic!!! read more

We ate our lunches at this place several times in last few years as it was conveniently located on our bike route. The persons at the counter were courteous. Not so this time. I went in today. I wanted to first use their rest room and think about buying some snack as it was too early for lunch. The previous guys were gone and new folks were behind the counter. Both looked at me and gave not welcome look. Told me that the bathroom is for employees and occasionally customers may use it. But you are not welcome. Felt so disgusted that I walked out. I don't need to give them my business. In future, won't patronize their shop. read more

Great little local spot for me. Good food and I like supporting local businesses. Living here in the valley we have to go over the hill to Fairfax to get anything so it's really convenient to have a tasty Little Delhi at the bottom of the Hill read more

West Marin and on the way to Point Reyes and beyond. I found this store to be excellent. Why? This store makes very good food, out of its DELI. It is all fresh and very tasty! They also, have Free Internet which comes in handy for us travelers, via Bike or Car! The store is stocked with most the needs for a house and for campers at Samuel P Taylor Camp. The prices you see here, albeit some protests here on YELP are normal for West Marin and Stinson Beach or Bolinas, and even Point Reyes Station. Bike Riders, this a neat spot to stop get some food, drink and rest. You can as well upload your photos and journeys. Remember there is a table behind the store that is often missed and nice to eat at. In all things, this store is run by a local person(s) and is where the locals come to be and get their food and needs if, getting to town is out of the question and ---Just because it nice to come and hang out here and have coffee and see the local people going about their business. read more

Don't come here for odds and ends. They are too expensive. DO come here for the food in the deli case or their sandwiches. The range of delicacies in this deli spans turkey burgers, crab cakes, meat loaf, smoked salmon, Italian sausages, chicken and tuna salads, and more. All fresh and fabulous. DO come here for the outdoor seating in the sun, and WIFI. Just plain terrific. read more

I would never have found this little roadside gem had I not had the luxury of dating a local. Sweet mother of god, the milk shakes--ahem "Creamy Dreamy Shakes"-- are ridiculous. Usually a traditional chocolate or vanilla shake girl myself, we went off the beaten path and opted to share the coffee. It took a little bit for my friend behind the counter there to hand it over, but I imagine it took so long because he had to wait for the northern californian faeries (creatures, not gays) to churn this stuff up in the trunk of a redwood out back. A few seconds after the WHOOOZing of the blender stopped, we were presented twenty ounces of pure magic in a humble plastic cup. Not too thick, but far from runny, this smooth, cold, sweet treat was far surpassed my expectations of the offerings of a modest country store. I can't speak for any other aspect of the store, I honeslty didn't even look around while I was waiting for my shake because I was fascinated by all the photographs of chickens that were taped to the cash register. But, if you want to sip pure magic, check it out. read more

I've lived in San Geronimo Valley my entire life and know how it is sometimes inconvenient to make a trip "over the hill" when you're in a pinch and need something in a hurry--Or just don't feel like making the trip. Lagunitas Market & Deli are one of my go-to's in these times of need. Friendly service, clean grounds and a vast array of items for quick snacks or entire meals! It's a great place to stop on your way to or from the coast. Thank you Lagunitas Market!! read more

I went here while working the election Tuesday Nov 3rd in San Geronimo. I got the burrito supreme. It was great and huge! I ate half for lunch and took the rest home for dinner the next night. I've been here before and they are very nice. This was my first burrito there and they get an A+ read more
