Five Markets

I live about 3 blocks away from Five Markets. While they are a small shop and can’t fit everything in, they do have the basics and more. At first, I was worried that they’d be another overpriced organic food shop, but I have found that they have pretty good prices on a lot of organic items, particularly dairy, as compared to some of the other local food stores in the area and stores like Gus’s, Rainbow and Whole Foods. I like to buy my Brown Cow yogurt and granola here and I like that they have a small selection of meat that I can peruse when I’m in a pinch and haven’t had time to buy groceries for the week. They also have a large selections of teas which is nice.

Love that there’s an organic, vegetarian-​friendly option in my neighborhood. The produce looked a little sad, so I haven’t tried it yet, but everything else there is amazing (love that they have Strauss organic whole greek yogurt — and for cheaper than Rainbow too I think!). Definitely check this place out for organic healthy options!

This is a ten star review! Great selection, great produce (gets better & better), clean food. And wonderful people!!!

Excellent small ‘healthy’ natural/​organic/​whatever neighborhood grocery store. All products appear to be selected with considerable care. Prices are very fair. I’m here 1−2x per week.

Love this little local market! The ladies are fantastic and very responsive to what people want them to carry. I love having a neighborhood store that carries real food and beverages!

I checked out this store and it is very awesome. I love the healthier and local options of food and other items that is available here.
The people are very friendly and helpful!
Price is about right, slightly higher than the normal stuff.

Awesome market with some great choices. The staff is super helpful too.

This place just gets better and better! More vitamins, herbs and tinctures. Great customer service. Thank you Evelyn and Martha for opening this store up. One Happy Customer.

Love it. Great market run by wonderful, friendly people! Ben K. is right when he says «It’s a mini-​Rainbow with meat».

Excellent local grocery. A little cheaper than Rainbow item by item but without some of the bulk selection. Super nice people. I am a regular here.

It’s a mini-​Rainbow with meat!
Bonus for the neighborhood.

Although there is much to love about the Mexican grocery stores in my neighbourhood, there are definitely things they lack. High quality organic meats for example. Or hippie cereals for glutards, and all that artisanal granola bullshit. You know: stuff I want. That’s where Five Markets fills an important void in my neck of the Mission.
Despite its diminutive size, they have a wide selection. I generally skip the produce (there’s not much anyway), but it’s a respectable spot for the aforementioned grainy stuff, organic soaps and cleaning products, healthy frozen vittles, preserves, hummuses, kombuchas, dairy and dairy substitutes, local meats, and even a bulk section in the back.
The staff here is very friendly and even gave me a free tote bag! What sweethearts. Welcome to the neighbourhood.
Obligatory Title Pun: HIGH FIVE!
Menu Readability: That logo was for sure designed by a relative.
Need to mention: It’s a bit pricy but the quality is good.
What this place teaches me about myself: Yeah, I like me some hippie bullshit.

I live in the neighborhood and I couldn’t be happier with this addition! It is an awesome place! I am an avid organic and all natural foods person, so now I finally have access in my hood’ within easy walking distance. It’s a great place for the neighborhood locals to get into. If you have any requests, they will definitely take your suggestion seriously. I asked for a special coffee creamer made with coconut and they were on it! They have excellent hours and a great selection. Since I go there often, I already see the additions that have been made since they opened. They continue to improve and expand selection. They really listen to their customers! It’s great to see such an ethical business operating for their community.

A welcome addition to the neighborhood! So glad to see these business owners were able to open a new, much needed business after closing World Pioneer Video. Five Markets is still refining what they stock, but in the short time they’ve been open they’ve managed to become my staple for weekly groceries. Love this place!

They just opened, and I’m IN LOVE. This is precisely what the neighborhood needs, a local organic grocer that stocks a little of everything based on the wants and needs of the residents in the area. It’s a block away from where I live, that helps, but honestly, I would pick this place over other places even if it’s further. It’s the one stop shop for organic groceries, not to mention that the owners are SUPER NICE.

It’s great to have a health food-​focused store in the neighborhood. Five Markets carries a lot of the brands I prefer. Even better: Evelyn and Marta have started stocking some particular products, like St. Benoit yogurt and Santa Cruz Berry Blend juice, at my request. I can get great produce at nearby Casa Lucas and my specialty brands at Five Markets, and I don’t have to use a car to pick up groceries! Plus, Evelyn and Marta and their cashiers are unfailingly sweet.

So glad I found this the other day. I live next to Philz and I constantly wished there was a «Whole Foods» close by to buy specialty food. And then one day I was walking around and stumbled upon this 24^th street gem!
Evelyn and Marta are wonderful! Will be seeing more of me!

Disclaimer: I love Evelyn and Marta (the proprietors)!
I am happy that despite closing the video rental business next door they are back and developing a business that our family will definitely frequent.
Great selection of healthy foods and a post office?! What a treat. I’m confident with community feedback they’ll stock it with all the stuff we want and need.

Just noticed this new natural and organic grocery store in the mission — great selection of organic specialty items and bulk goods (huge selection of lentils)!
