I love this grocery store so much that I always ensure we are about to run out of something when we host out-of-town visitors — faces light up when we arrive here! The quality of the produce and the legendary bulk selections are unparalleled in a traditional grocery store. I am not vegetarian, but I choose to shop here anyway as it gives us an excuse to buy meats and fish at our local butcher.

Rainbow Grocery is the best food store in SF, since the 80s! They have an amazing selection of everything, including fresh pastas and nut butters in bulk. It's also reasonably priced for the quality. They have a small, but well-managed parking lot if you need to do a large shop.

Great for bulk items. Great selection of spices and cooking oils. Best if you get your own containers. Good selection of cheese too. Parking is a struggle but was able to park at the office max lot next to it. But it can be pricier than others places. So watch what you get if you are on a budget

Yes this is a very open arms place. Workers are very helpful and if it seems a little overwhelming start w the help desk and say hi. Ask questions maybe a worker will walk you about to see everything. I still find new things and have been w Rainbow since the 80's
