"Another update: They reopened in late 2023 under new management and a complete renovation - it’s a little too upscale and pricey compared to what it was but still a great contribution to the neighborhood and lovely staff! Update: As of May 2022 this store is closed. Love this store and the owners. Miss Pops but his sons and family are doing him proud! I’m there at least 3-4x/ day."

"Love this place. They got buzz balls they got everything! Little pricey, but hey bay area is expensive."

"A neighborhood, not convenience, store - there is a difference! I told proprietor Beverly this morning when I stopped for coffee and some convo, that I was going to write a Google review for her and what would she want me to say? She said (and I quote) "we love our neighborhood, we love our cusomers." Right off the bat with NO thinking about it. It's true. THAT is the difference between the cold bright franchise convenience stores and a neighborhood store: they are invested in the community and care. It shows! Always warm and friendly, Beverly, Toufike and Hesham are people who remember you with a smile. If you're the sort who doesn't care about any of the above, their PRICES are also consistently LOWER than those branded stores too! That have all the basics necessities you forgot elsewhere, a complete line of alcohol down to kombucha tea, cigs and the like. Beverly said they're going carrying organic items soon too. Stop in and say hi and support this heart of our neighborhood!"

"Shaun and Al are literally the nicest guys. They didn't have exactly what I needed on hand and they really went above and beyond to get it ASAP. Talk about customer service! Not ya average corner store. U need liquor and snacks they got it and if they don't they'll get it. 5 stars!"
