Lo and behold, an indie market with a myriad of snacks, sundries, ingredients for cooking a fine meal and surprising wonderful things in store. I found this corner grocer by happenstance. Waiting for hours on a nearby medical appointment for family, I was starving for a snack and drink so I asked the front staff of the waiting room for suggestions. General directions were given about the best options, and here's where I ended up. Green Apple Market occupies a corner and isn't seedy looking, like the smokes and liquor store is directly across the street. Writings and designs on the shop windows indicated specialty on many halal items -- perfect for people striving adherence to such food codes. You'll see popular salty snacks and chocolate and candy bars throughout the store, but also, multiple shelves of imported (European, Mediterranean and beyond) goods. Including a big line of stuff from Italian snack manufacturer Balconi, which now that I've tasted it, they're possibly my fav mass produced mini sponge cake bakers. Plethora of beverages in the refrigerated shelving. Towards the rear, find a nifty counter showcasing the halal meats, a little area of produce, a fridge/frozen section in front, other shelves hold bags of grains, rice, spices... the variety of goods is intriguing and impressive for a neighbor grocery. The nice cashier was busy stocking shelves when not helping customers. Incidentally, two pizza pie spots seem to be in this same street intersection, and they appear to meet the definition of "hole(s) in the wall". Had I been waiting much longer at the medical office, I probably would have wandered down to seek some pizza sustenance. Meantime, if you're ever passing through or in this Nob Hill adjacent district and need a quick snack and beverage, you'll be wise to check out the Green Apple Market. read more

I went to this market and walked around. I saw the beloved yogurt drink. I had two pieces of baklava. It was fun to visit the store because it had some other items. Corner kick. read more

Green Apple Market - a sandwich wrapped in plastic - Grocery Near Me - San Francisco, California

I had another store in mind before I gave Yelp a quick consult: I needed halal meat for tacos I was planning to make for little one's birthday party. The name of this market was familiar though it's not the old Green Apple supermarket that used to be located 10-12 blocks farther up Polk in Russian Hill (I really liked that market, too). When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by Mohammed. The market is small but well-stocked. While I was very directional in my purchase, I noticed the meat case looked very clean - and the ground beef I ordered was fresh (and tasted great after I prepared it). Prices were reasonable. I grabbed a couple of cucumbers and a bagged a good number of Roma tomatoes. Green Apple is a gem of a market- a great place to buy freshly butchered halal meat. It's centrally located in a semi-scruffy block and parking is best on the small alley (Cedar) that's immediately adjacent, off Polk. Bring quarters for meters. read more

i dont know abput you but while i can afford it, i will not pay 5.00 thats right five dollars for a head of lettuce. was in a hurry and on the way to a friend and i needed the lettuce. only grocery in sight so stopped for my lettuce almost fainted where told the price. its in the tenderloin and i do wonder if anybody in neighhood shops there. not only will i never shop there again but i will tell everone i know. for 5.00 i expect more. someone mention the friendly clerk. when i queried the price he was downright rude to me. apparently he gets asked about his prices frequently. read a 1918 review that mentioned prices are reasonable. that was 1918. this is 2024 and prices are ridiculous. im still in shock. 5.00 for a head of lettuce. safeway, cala, trada joes. none of those stores would dare charge that. read more

Excellent butcher counter and friendly staff. Great selection of middle eastern spices and pantry items.

This market is my neighborhood corner store (as in almost right across the street from my house) but I don't think that I'm biased in loving to shop here. Green Apple has all the essentials, they're perfect for a quick grocery run or when you realize you're missing one ingredient in the middle of cooking dinner or baking cookies. They have a pretty good variety of products too. The guys that work there are all really nice and pleasant to interact with and they even take suggestions for items to stock. I asked for a certain brand of almond milk one time and they told me they would have it next time. I thought they might be joking, but lo and behold the next time I went they had the exact almond milk I wanted! Tips and Tricks -They have a lot of halal products and even halal meats -Was able to find flour here even after quarantine! read more

First, went to one store, then another, and then finally to GAM. I asked if they had capers. I described them. The gentleman said no. So, I thanked him (because he was very courteous and had a great smile). I walked out. A police car was right in front of me waiting for the green light as I walked a few feet from the front door. Then, I heard the worker yelling for me to wait. I thought the police were going to think I was a thief escaping. Nope. But the worker had a bottle of very fine Spanish capers in his hand. I went back. Paid for the capers. Thanked him and left so gratified that I would have the last ingredient for my evening meal. The best place around. read more

Excellent, clean market, even for those who don't necessarily eat halal. Good meat at low prices, a wide selection of interesting meat and yogurt products, a nice range of bottled sodas, They're open really late, often until 2AM (or maybe it's just Ramadan?) and the best part--It's a family-owned business that really cleans up a rather dirty corner of the city that was once occupied by a liquor store on a street with too many to begin with. I give this place 5 stars, and will continue patronising for the forseeable future. The combination of the friendly atmosphere and cheap prices on a variety of products will keep it a staple on my neighborhood outings. Just note: they don't sell pork. read more

People are nice. I went to this shop to buy some Hallal meat. Not too much choices about the meat but a lot of grocery products

Amazing meat choices, fresh and comes from a local source. I can't believe we just found this today.

You go in, buy 2 tomatoes and a cucumber your total somehow ends up $36.50. Complete scam-artists.

I was walking on Polk street one night with my friends and we were thirsty so we stopped here to buy something to drink really quick. The guy that was working there offered me and my friends a sandwich and we had the munchies so why not? This guy made me an amazing sandwich and I could tell that everything he put in my sandwich (turkey, cheese, jalapeños, lettuce etc) is fresh! I noticed that this place is super clean and the meat that they have here is fresh and at a good price! This is family owned and I can tell that they take great care of this place! By the way the sandwiches here are better than subway! Not only because my sandwich tasted fresh but also because the guy that made me this sandwich has a good taste and knows how to make a damn sandwich! (; read more

I was kinda lost in this neighborhood and i was hungry so i decided to stop by and get me some fruit or something but I ended up getting a garlic turkey sandwich and i have to say it was delicious.

Local butchers are super rare, and butchers open late even more so. Prices are decent and selection pretty solid considering the square footage of the store. A few things I particularly recommend are home-made hummus, the big soft pitas, nice yogurts and cheeses. They almost always have whole birds and chicken leg quarters, so not much else you could ask for. The beef selection seems to change on a day-to-day basis, but there is usually something decent there. Supplement this place with the civic center farmers market (or golden veggie market), and you're good to go read more

HERE-HERE!! TEN cheers for Green Apple Market!!!!!!!! They certainly cleaned up this once TERRIBLE, LIQUOR RIDDEN, DRUG INFESTED, DUMP!! NO LONGER!! Having this business here has cleaned up the corner-- CONSIDERABLY!! AND--They are friendly, cordial, and the produce is FRESH!! They have REASONABLE prices. The meat is SPOTLESS CLEAN and DEEEEE-LICIOUS!! I ADORE the flavor of the (halal) chicken. Cooks up juicy and tender!! HALAL just means the way it is raised/slaughtered in a "compassionate" manner in tune w/ their faith. You know--The Jewish faith has KOSHER-- The Islamic faith- HALAL. It's the laws concerning diet in their faith. FRANKLY--I think it's a heck of a lot BETTER than that pre-packaged stuff at your local grocer!! You've Gotta' try it!! CLEAN--CLEAN---CLEAN!!!!!!!! read more
