Standard 5 & 10 Ace, also known as Stan's Kitchen, is a well-established store serving the San Francisco community since 1939. As a one-stop variety store, it offers a wide range of affordable products, including hardware, electrical supplies, gardening tools, automotive items, arts and crafts, toys, gifts, cards, gift wrap, shipping boxes, and more. The store is known for its helpful and pleasant staff, who assist customers in finding what they need, even in the narrow aisles. Despite the limited space, the store manages to carry an extensive selection, making it a favorite for many shoppers. Its kitchen section is especially praised, offering everything except the sink, and the crafting and gardening sections are also highly regarded. The store maintains a traditional approach, focusing on quality and friendly service, and recently completed a complete renovation. Customers appreciate the variety and great prices, often choosing it as their first stop for nearly any shopping need.
An excellent well-stocked neighborhood hardware store with a friendly, knowledgeable staff. There is lots of nearby parking.

Ace hardware is my go to hardware store before Home Depot and Lowe's for certain items but for bigger jobs like sheet rock or lumber building materials I'll go to Home Depot but some of the bigger Ace Hardware stores carry everything I would need. I would recommend Ace hardware.

One of the nicest places in the city! They moved ailes in a different direction, and there are a lot more supplies and items to buy. It is also a great store to get greeting cards and toys and cleaners. Great for families!
