The staff were incredibly friendly and, even though we arrived a few minutes after the kitchen had closed, they kindly accommodated us and made us a pesto chicken sandwich. The sandwich was one of the best pesto chicken sandwiches we've ever had--so flavorful and delicious! We also had the pasta verde with pesto sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, carrots, and peas, and it was just as delicious. I definitely wouldn't have expected food this good from a market! Highly recommend this place for the food and great customer service!

They offer anything you can possibly need from groceries, sundries, produce, and wine to fishing supplies. To top it off you can come in and order a sandwich, a burger or a pizza. Service is friendly and helpful. We came here a couple times while visiting Bodega Bay for items we had forgot to bring. We tried the burgers and the pizza and all of it was tasty. What I loved was the parking lot that had a great view of the ocean. They offer long hours of 7:00am - 9:00pm. Whether you want a quick bite, heading out for a day at the beach (picnic), or heading out of town be sure to stop here.

This smart looking store has a lot of choices for wine, a nice well-stocked veggie section, all the stuff you'd find as a small corner store, a deli where fresh sandwiches and food are made, and best of all, a small ice cream counter. I suppose I admit that I'm an ice cream lover and they serve the Rainbow brand, a San Francisco product. It is a great joint, clean and everything is nicely presented. It's a great place should you need a place to take a break from your drive, stretch your legs and at the very least, a bathroom stop.

Overall I could not tell you if they were good but the food environment was less than proper customer service.

I bet he gets a lot of compliments from customers. If the Safeway at Guerneville see this I hope they let him know and recognize how wonderful it is to have such employee. The store itself was nice, clean, they have a Starbucks inside, & a big parking lot right outside:)

There's only two islands and three pumps. Space is limited, so lines form as drivers must wait. Gas is pricey at this 76 station. The independent place across the street is only slightly lower.

I was impressed by the well organized coolers on the back wall stocked with beer, sodas, and a variety of other drinks. Nice gas station, limited parking

We need more of these small independently owned market/grocery stores in every town across the US…read more Certainly Safeway, Albertsons and so many other large chains have fit the needs for grocery shopping, but in smaller towns this type of establishment should exist and thrive. What a delightful market this is, a must stop during any road trip up this way. You can get nearly anything you'd ever need from toothpaste, milk, cheese, chips, detergent, on and on... they even have two gas pumps. They sell ice too. There's a small cafe serving incredibly good things, including hand made sandwiches (we had a 'Rocketman' and an 'Architect'... being an Architect I loved being so honored!). Both sandwiches were utterly fresh, delicious and tasty. They have several specialty type sandwiches, as were these two, or you may customize one. They sell coffees and other drinks too. There's a bar type set up and a cozy back area for sitting to eat, plus some outdoor places too. The store is simple, rustic but ever so comfortable, organized and clean. The people working here are upbeat and friendly and you feel so welcomed, and utterly pleased you came in to get something. Great place for a drink, snack or basic groceries and product. Do stop in and check it out!

In addition to a few inside tables, they also offer some outdoor seating with ocean views. Their portions are generous and a simple veggie sandwich is stacked with fresh produce.

It's a popular and convenient stop along the coast just north of Fort Ross State Park, before you hit Timber Cove and Salt Point. I always make a point to stop here when traveling this lovely stretch of Hwy 1.
