Guy that works there is angry. Will over charge you if not careful as well. Use to live across the street and I noticed he treats certain people differently (pretty sure based on ethnicity) including different prices for items! Go someone else for a more neighborhood friendly experience After reading other reviews seems to be common be randomly charges more. Maybe he his mad we interrupted his phone time. The lady with dark hair that closes the shop is the nicest woman in the world. Wish she worked there more not the ride and angry man read more

Thick sandos for a cheap price! A sando, drink and chips are $6.99 here. The tuna was fresh and light. The sando was moist throughout. The veggies inside the sando were thick and nicely complemented the creamy interior. I watched the man behind the counter slice up the veggies to put in our food, so I knew the ingredients were fresh. The pastrami was nicely salted. The portions were generous; it was both meaty and full of veggies. However, it was a bit too sour when eaten with the pickled jalapeños; that with the mustard is a combo that is a bit too sour for my taste, so I just took them off. The french bread is quite crumbly and dry, but still a good vehicle for the moist interior. When biting into it, it tears well with the interior of the sando, so it's a satisfying bite (instead of when bread is too hard and you squish out all the insides trying to tear the bread). Overall, a great deal for the amount of food you get! read more

I was hungry and walking from an appointment. I went in because of the sign board out front. SPECIAL. Sandwich with chips and a can of soda..$7.99. What? I was imagining bread with a couple ounces of meat. Wrong. I ordered a simple salami and cheese. A very hearty portion! I have no idea about the ounces but it was plenty and very good. I highly recommend this place for a good Sandwich at a great price. No tables, take out. Oh in case you need liquor they have a good selection and all different size bottles read more

As a kid, the neighborhood corner store was more than just a place to spend money on candy and soda; it was a gathering place, and a beacon for all who lived on our block. We took ownership in it, "defending" it from kids who rode in on bikes from several blocks west of us. The proprietor always watched out for us, and occasionally hooked us up with little freebies for scraped knees or good grades. When it burned down in the L.A. uprising of 1992, we not only lost a reliable source of treats and light groceries; we lost a piece of our childhood. It was rebuilt under new ownership, and was never the same. So many of these stores are long gone... which is why finding a cute little spot like Pacific hit me so close to the heart. Nestled in a busy neighborhood of condos and apartments, Pacific is clean, quaint, and quality all rolled into one. I recently stopped in here on my travels through the city, and finding myself with a little bit of lunch hunger, decided to order up a sandwich. Nothing wrong with the roast beef and Swiss, even in general terms, and the Pacific version was superior even to my expectations. Cold crispy lettuce, fresh vegetables, and just the right amount of condiments to complement a generous amount of meat and cheese... All piled high atop bread with that perfect combination of crispy on the outside, and chewy on the inside. I grabbed a cold drink out of the case, a bag of chips off the shelf, and for the briefest of moments, I was seven years old again, half thinking about if I had enough money to buy a snickers, and half wondering if my bike was still there, left laying on its side on the sidewalk in front of the store. Those days are long gone, but I'm glad to share there are still a few places that perfectly combine nostalgia with personal service in the present. This little store on the corner as one of them. Hope I'm back in this neighborhood soon enough to visit them again. read more

I love this corner store! The staff is SO friendly. I stop in often for snacks and random household needs because I live nearby and work from home. Their dolmas from the counter are great! Also-- their alcohol is reasonably priced compared to other corner stores nearby which seem to mark up a lot higher. Somehow they also sell some Costco brand items? Which is awesome because those are more of a bargain price. read more

everything is overpriced. been here a few times and depending on how the owner is feeling he will increase the price or decrease the price. For instance, I bought some mints for 1.99 and the next week after he charges me 2.49 for the exact same mints and sometimes some obscure prices saying it's a price increase. some bullshit if you ask me. i have questioned him many times about this shady practice as he has done it to me many times and he gives so many excuses. one time he tacked on an extra service charge on top of the taxes. i will not buy anything from here unless there is a clear sticker price tagged which is less than half the store. be very wary he does not give an itemized receipt so he can get away with this! read more

Affordable sandwiches that won't break your bank. Get the salami, ham, or whatever you like.

It would be a toss-up whether Pacific Food Mart or NOPA Corner Market is the cleanest convenience store in the city. Spic and span, no dust settled anywhere; this is my annoying trait of noticing minutia- that and being an equally annoying grammarian. I digress: I dashed in to grab some Pilsner and they had quite a good selection in the refrigerated case. Prices are a dollar or two more than big grocery stores but that's to be expected. I decided to plunk another $6 on lottery tickets because I hadn't yet paid enough self-imposed tax or won anything. Their take-out sandwiches look terrific and the owner was very solicitous and sweet. I could bathe in the kindness of his calling me "dear" several times. Pacific Food Mart has a lock on this neighborhood so it's great residents have a solid convenience store to rely on. A+ read more

The sandwich was unexpectedly good and it's honestly such a good deal for SF. Service was great too, the guy's really friendly. Looking forward to going again! read more

As a neighborhood store, I wanted to support small businesses and hence used to get sandwich here. That was until the owner literally SCREAMED at me today. Told me "DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO READ?" while making hand gestures suggesting I'm mentally challenged, and made me feel extremely unsafe! As a person of color whose first language IS English, Let me tell you this - No, I didn't need your hand gestures as I'm fluent in 5 languages. And even if someone needed help, you can't be an overt racist in 2021 and expect it won't come back to you. I regret buying overpriced stuff at this limited stock convenience store, and tolerating tasteless sandwiches made with stale Orowheat bread. Only suggestion for others, stay safe and avoid this racist store and it's owner. read more

This review is for lottery ticket and snack purchases. The main guy is so nice. Most stores when you buy lotto treat you like a second class citizen for taking up their time, not here. As such, I will buy a treat or encourage a friend to support their shop - plus they have all different flavors of it's it ice cream sandwiches - yum! Deli is busy at lunch time. read more

Pacific Food Mart has only microbrews in sixpacks.(unpried) no big bottes items neatly stacked. eats: sammie special (5,99) -pastrami on dutch crunch bland meat, cheese, lettuce, tomatos, jalepenos, mayo spread -gold fish chip of choice usually like it, not now -soda included, hansen's has 30 grams of sugar there's goes their reputation for healthiness. crumbs: -sammie pedestrian, good only for starving yelpers. took me an hour or more to eat in. (while i was driving) almost chewed into the toothpick -good value and not tasty. read more

The $4.99 sandwich, chips, and soda deal is a steal. I would want to come back here earlier in the day. The boyfriend and I came here during dinner and they only had white and wheat bread and American or pepper jack cheese by the end of the night. The man helping us was super friendly and customized our sandwiches the way we wanted it- the option to add mustard, mayo, lettuce, tomato, white onion, pickles, and sliced jalapeño peppers. The Combo sandwich comes with your choice of two different meats and the Crab sandwich was great. This place gives you a pretty standard sandwich- I wouldn't say it stood out but the deal is definitely worth coming back for. This mart also had a lot of different snack and drink selections, as well as toiletries and travel size necessities. Make sure to bring cash or spend over $10 to use your credit card. read more

My review for pacific food mart goes beyond the expensive items and lame ass sandwiches. It has to do with a lack of civility and respect that one "EMPLOYEE" has exhibited towards a long time customer and neighbor. Rather than go into the details about a situation which civilized people born in the 20th century could have worked out, I call on you, Ali A to contact me. Then after I explain to you what your "EMPLOYEE" did to me, perhaps you could translate to him how people should treat good customers and neighbors they've known for over twenty years. My # is 4154123265. Please call. read more

The menu here is attractive so I decided to try this place out. I am a foodie and I know what I am ordering. So I drive by a d saw a sign Sandwich Special for $6.99 includes chips and drink. I go in and order a Falafel Sandwich, this was the most jacked up Falafel I have ever seen. Guy asks me White or Wheat, I figure cool they have Wheat Pita? So I said white, the way I usually have my Pita. He says everything on it? I say yes please. I asked can I have extra Tahini and Humus? He says no we dont have that. I said ok what does it come with? He says mayo mustard,lettuce,tomato,pickle! I said okay this is gonna be a jacked up Falafel. So he says go pick a drink in door #5 so I picked a sparkling grapefruit water. I asked it comes with chips too right, he says pick a bag of chips and I picked Tim's Sea Salt Chips. He bags everything up a d says $7.00 something, I give home a hundred and he was shocked like never saw one and asked if I had smaller bill I said no. He just froze there silently not knowing what to do. He probably didnt have change so I said I can charge it and he says ok. I get home and open my Falafel expecting a wonderful meal. I get a huge French roll with lots of lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, mayo, mustard, and peppers and half slice of cheese wondering where dafuk is the falafel balls. Get this, it's a 6" French Roll and it had ONE Falafel ball smashed and smeared across 6" of bread. It was basically a lettuce tomato pickle pepper cheese sandwich. I ate all the inside like a salad and made myself some eggs and called it a lunch. read more

The boyfriend and I are moving out soon, and I had to write a review for this apartment complex's saving grace: Pacific Food Mart. The owners are AWESOME. Like other reviewers have said, they're always smiling and helpful. Plus they always have bacon in the back fridge. Saturday morning savior so many times. Thanks for 6 months of awesomeness, PFM!

Tried the $4.99 lunch special today and it was really good! For a neighborhood corner store, the selection is better than most. Clean interior and exterior is always helpful. Super friendly and helpful staff. Hakeem- the owner is the BEST!! :) I heart this corner store. read more

Even though the prices are typical outrageous San Francisco mini mart prices, HAKIM the owner makes up for it with his always friendly smile and super fast and helpful service. I probably shopped there 5 times a week for the past year because I lived in the shitty apts upstairs. When I was a little short on cash, Hakim even let me run a tab and pay him on payday! Now in a big city, that's a miracle! And a smalltown attitude you rarely see-trust and repaying me because I was a frequent customer. The stores is always clean and well stocked. read more

I caught Pacific Food Mart's sandwich maestro sleeping. Literally. The dude was dozing off a bit when I popped in for some eats on the way to the park. All good, I've been there too. He awoke without skipping a beat, and before Iong I had a freshly sliced turkey sandwich. A good one. Bread options are minimal (sliced wheat and white, at least on weekends) and I wasn't offered the much advertised combo deal. Solid option in the hood, but nothing that merits a fourth star. Hope he gets some rest! read more

Your friendly 2000 Post Corner Market Store!! I can't believe no one has reviewed the Pacific Food Market corner store on Sutter and Pierce! This is my favorite place to go to at 6PM after a full week of work! I stock up on: bubble water, vitamin water, gummie snacks, beer and wine. They always have my fav - a 12 pack of stella and a 6 pack of blue moon in glass bottles and carry my super savvy and delicious brand of "BAREFOOT" (haha, SWEAR!) wine. Last week I was a few dollars short, and the friendly owner yelled to the cashier from the back of the store, "MARIAA, she's my neighbor! Give it to her!" That sealed the deal, I had to write a 5-star review. They also make fresh sandwiches......sandwich, chips and a soda for $4.99, my roommate is a big fan. Come visit. read more

My friend/co-worker introduced me to this place!!! I love it! I've ordered the crab sandwich twice now! Both times they both were very fresh! (I have not yet gotten sick from eating here (and that's always a plus!) Definitely will be a regular customer there! Because trying to find a cheap lunch by work is not easy! The $4.99 deal is totally worth the 10 minute walk! I should add that the crab sandwich was very tasty! I am willing to try other things now since I know that was pretty damn good! Very friendly people who work here! Great attitude and fast service. (Which is a plus, since usually I am on my lunch break when I go here!) Only two negatives for me! The only thing I don't like is, about their credit card thing is that you have to spend over $10.00 to get something and then they'll accept your debit/credit card. Oh and I think the guy making the sandwiches should not also be handling the money either!!! (Just one of my little peeves!) Maybe he uses gloves but in any event I at least hope he washes his hands! read more

The $4.99 lunch special is awesome! ($5.46 with tax) You get a pretty big sandwich split in half, a bag of chips, and a can of soda. The owner is super-friendly too. And seriously, $4.99 for lunch is totally worth it. read more

I like this place! It's your typical unassuming neighborhood corner market. It's a lot cleaner than most, however, and the proprietor makes a mean sandwich. There is also a great $4.99 special for sandwich + soda + chips. I didn't personally try any of the sandwiches, but I watched him make to order a turkey sandwich, a falafel sandwich, and a roast beef sandwich. You have a choice of wheat, white, dutch crunch or sweet roll for bread. There are the typical toppings of leafy lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo and mustard, and he also adds pickles and sliced jalapeno peppers as well as your choice of cheese. As for the deli meats, he has the slicer propped up on the corner of the counter and slices your choice up fresh! He then assembles the whole thing, slices it in half, wraps it in paper, and puts in toothpicks to keep the whole rather tall stack from coming apart. I wasn't feeling that hungry so I just got a corn dog which was about as good as you'd expect a microwaved corn dog to taste. However, I think that I will definitely try a sandwich next time I have the stomach space, since this seems like a really good deal. Also, there is a good selection of frozen and refrigerated convenience food as well as a fairly large selection of beers and wines. There are some ready made foods in the glass display cases, as well as an interesting selection of candies and small desserts. All in all, a good place to stop by after work for the essentials or a freshly made-to-order sandwich. One last thing: As I was digging through my wallet to find exact change, the owner was like, "Oh it's okay if you're short" which I found very nice and friendly, sort of unexpected for San Francisco. From reading other reviews, it sounds like this place really is part of the neighborhood, and the owner is a nice guy who wants to keep people coming back. The whole experience left me with a good impression, so I will definitely be back when I'm in the area. Note: This place will accepts credit cards but will add an extra $1 charge for purchase of under $10. read more

over the course of about a year now i've walked past this place like fifty times and have noticed the "fresh sandwich, chips and soda for $3.99" sign. always tempted to go in but fearful of a dissappointing sandwich, i've passed up the opportunity on a great deal day in and day out. the other day i walked in, pleasantly surprised by the super friendly owner whom also made my sandwich. and the sandwich itself was great too. the meat is sliced when you order your sandwich and it comes with all the normal fixings. i'll be back often. i think i'd like to become a regular there. and actually, the two times i've been there so far, they've had regulars come in. the owner says hello to them by name and they seem completely satisfied with the place. read more

The sandwiches are now 6.99 & super sad. The "hot sandwich" is just a cold sandwich popped in the microwave for a minute. Stale bread, stale meat, with cheese unmelted and meat still cold. The guy who owns the store however is very friendly and a great guy. I would support his business, just not his sandwiches. read more

Yikes, a long overdue update to say that the formerly -$3.99 combo deal was indeed resurrected at $4.99. Still a heckuva a deal and a nice, honest sandwich made before your very eyes. read more

I love this Place!!! I am not leaving a review just after 1 visit. I have been to this place many many times and I swear they have the best tuna sandwich I have ever had! The owner is extremely kind and I go there at least 4 times a week to get their tuna sandwich. I can't comp for their other food as I haven't tried it but I am sure it's amazing. I guess I am a regular now because I actually pay up front for two weeks of meals haha. Great service, fresh food and an amazing deal! 4.99 for a sandwich, soda and chips! They also have many different types of Liquor, fresh veggies, sweets, beer, and everyday necessities. Try for yourself! read more

this place is great! it is connected to my building, open semi-late (10pm) and have a great variety of stuff that isnt insanely overpriced. i can walk my dogs and pick up something during our route, they love saying hi to my pups when we come in. yesterday, my dog ate my boyfriend's dinner sooooo i quickly ran down and they had smoked sausage (yay!). thank GOD and a big save for din din. just a great family owned place that remembers their customers! read more

prices are very high about 4 times the price of a supermarket,i am surprised people say the owner is friendly,since he bought the place about 10 years ago he has never been friendly,he is always on the phone,i would like to support a local business but I could not afford too ,here,they took away the two garbage cans outside his store as he filled them and never paid for garbage,now you have to walk two blocks for a garbag can,he stays open late,sems to have good selection, read more
