Other Avenues Grocery Cooperative

Love how convenient this grocery store is! It's all vegetarian, and carries lots of food from local providers around the Bay, like Rosalind Bakery and Timeless Coffee. Love the huge vegan selection, and the 5 dollar grab bags of fruits and veggies they have on occasion - in addition to the huge selection of vegan chocolate and ice cream. They also have dry bins with flour, oatmeal, spices, etc. You can weigh out exact quantities of things you need and pay for them by the pound, which is super convenient for obsure, one-off ingredients. You should bring your own containers for this if possible.

They sell a membership that gives you 5 percent off, and I use mine quite a bit ;)

This is the store where you can find an excellent food for vegetarians. For instance, the organic raw buckwheat is sold here. It has 6g of protein. Even though this store's products are relatively expensive, there are a lot of things they do that make it worth to shop. For example, there is a 5% senior discount for shoppers aged 60 and over. Also, according to their website, this store supports many charitable organizations such as the Center for Farmworker Families, Farm Sanctuary, and Natural Resource Defense Council to name a few. I think, it always feels good whenever you overpaid for something, a portion of that money eventually will be donated to charity. Finally, this store is well maintained and the employees are very helpful.
Recommend!

Finally, I found a good organic market. They have a wide range of natural and organic products. They have some fun gifts too. You do have to pay more for clean food but it is worth it. I did notice one of their lines of organic eggs was the same price as safeway. They do what they can to keep prices down. They also offer some discounts for senoirs and a few others. I like them.

There is a good selection of ready to eat food but the shelf isn't full all the time.

Living close by Other Avenues is fortunate. The workers have an ownership stake, and is a model for small grocery stores to co-op. The selection is good, fresh produce and fresh bread from a local baker. Very predictable over the 10 years I have been shopping there. I’m happy to support them even if the prices are a bit higher than the large chain stores.

Long-standing co-op in the Outer Sunset. We’re very lucky to have this fresh produce grocery store in the neighborhood. Worker-owned and run with intention. The beer lineup is FIRE.

One of the last remaining coops (cooperative , collectively-owned businesses) in the nation. Great staff and selection of organic and local food and household products!

I really enjoyed shopping here! Quality selection of groceries, snacks, wine, beer & health/beauty items. Great place to stop before hitting the beach.

Packed tight of unique bulk and other items nestled not far from oceanfront. Street parking was available. Like the cooperative concept. This is how it's instituted long ago. Worker-owned.

so much great produce here, all you need for a healthy and happy life.

I've never eaten healthier since moving to the Outer Sunset. Other Avenues has the variety and freshness that I look for. The staff is laid back yet knowledgeable and helpful. And considering the quality, I find the prices quite reasonable. And best of all, I get to support a worker owned co-op!

I love their bulk section! It's great to fill up on so much stuff (grains, pasta, beans, snacks of all kinds, seasonings), and not need to use a single plastic bag. Staff is helpful and friendly as well.

Well managed small store with lot of stuff. It's like a mini whole earth store with interesting selection of products. Prices are reasonable, and staffs are very friendly. They even have jars of sauces from Peru, not that I recommended those. The store has good vibe that you can feel the care and love from people work there.

Very friendly, organic, genuine and wide range of choice

Has everything you need, even fluoridated toothpaste tabs.

My favorite neighborhood grocery store. Love to support somewhere owned by employees. Yes, it is pricey, but they sell good stuff. Great for (spendy) delicious groceries or for picking up treats on your way to a beach picnic. Small but solid selection of bulk items, local crafts and cuisines, to-go meals, baked goods, and more. Insider tip: on some evenings they have the BEST huge bags of produce for $5. Employees and shoppers are the best kind of people. Love my co-op.

In town visiting and we came here daily for apples, bananas, plums and snacks for our daily adventures. The bulk section was amazing for snacks for the day or a little dessert at night. Gluten free vegan pumpkin muffin was AMAZING. Wished we were here longer to try their bulk teas and more bakery items! Wonderful selection of foods and drinks!

The neatest little grocery store in all of SF, I dare say! An incredible kind and helpful staff, and an amazing selection of ingredients, fresh produce, ready-made foods, bulk items, and toiletries. I absolutely love the spot.

We were in town for a few nights and were grateful that Other Avenues was so close by. Their values and mission around food are awesome and really resonated with us. We bought items from the bulk section numerous times, as well as some delicious gluten free baked goods and fruit. Really great options and very friendly staff.

Always super friendly staff and they have just about everything I could ever want and more! (earthy clothes, personal care, bulk goods, produce, fresh baked goods, tons of yummy chocolate options, etc.) So lovely to have this cute little grocery store all the way out by the beach, I dont know what I would do without it. Even if you don't live near Other Avenues it is a must visit. Forever love this place :)
