“i’ve been going to this store for probably 40 years. the items they carry are largely geared to the local homeowners, as well as equestrian folks. people who work there are always nice. the prices are a little higher than home depot but considering the convenience i never think twice about it.”
“If you're looking for the perfect New Year's Day vibe, look no further. We stopped by the San Gregorio General Store on January 1st and it was absolutely the place to be. Live band playing, energy was high, and the whole atmosphere just felt like a celebration.
There's something special about this spot. It's got that old-school general store charm but comes alive with music and community. Everyone was in great spirits, the band was fantastic, and it reminded me why these hidden coastal gems are worth the drive.
Can't wait to come back on another weekend with live music. If you haven't been, make the trip.”
“I honestly never take the time to write google reviews, but just left this store and it was such a wonderful experience that I felt compelled to write one. A wonderful woman working helped me find the screws and washers I needed in a matter of minutes, when I expected it to take a lot longer to sift through and find them myself. The customer service is truly notable. Thank you!”
“Nob Hill on CAL Ave. is an excellent hardware store! While small, it is packed with EVERYTHING I've needed. And, they order or bring from the other location if they don't have it at Palo Alto store! :)”
“This is by far the best place to go for purchasing your doors and windows whether it is for a remodel or a new construction. Joseph Harrison and Brian Bauer are real experts: exceptionally knowledgeable about windows and door choices whether you need to fit to energy regulation, detail custom designs, or find cost-effective solutions. Moreover, you can tell they are truly there to help you. Joseph went above and beyond to spec out my window and door design, and understood the tradeoffs across every choice from sill choice to screen selection. Top notch quality and customer service, so rare these days! Deeply appreciative.”
“If you have no other reason to go- this *feels* like a hardware store. I know when I say this I am speaking to a very specific subset of people. However, when I was a kid, my dad would take me with him to the hardware store, and I would get a lollypop while he and whomever from behind the counter would wander around looking for an eyebolt or the right shade of caulk. Giulio- who I assume is the owner, is easily 10 years older than my mom, who lives in the assisted living up the street. My mom can't be bothered to go to the chair yoga we're paying for, but Giulio went to work. He's not totally mobile, but he knows his s#!t. Whenever I come in, he or whoever else is behind the counter is happy to chat through my issue and suggest something. It's not a Home Depot- so they may not have what you're looking for every time- but they have a lot of things, and it makes me happy to know my money is staying local. Also, side story: One day during the summer, it's like 90, and I am behind a contractor who's getting a bunch of stuff - lumber, rocks...I don't know- but he's paying for it, and he grabs some water bottles for him and his crew and puts them on the counter. Giulio totals him up and says a number; the guy says, "Oh, don't forget these waters". Giulio says, "The town where I come from in Italy has the best water in the world, and it flows right off the mountain. If my father knew I was charging people for water, he'd come back from the dead and strike me down. Those are free." C'mon. How can you not go here first?”
“PV Hardware is the general store for Portola Valley. It has a bit of everything and is a reliable place for your hardware needs. The staff is friendly and the prices are good, especially for this town. It’s just a bit small and the selection can be a bit limited.”
“An easy and convenient local store. Prices are a bit higher than at larger retailers, and the selection of materials is more limited, but it’s easy to find what you need and get in and out quickly. The staff are lovely, knowledgeable, and super friendly.”
“Last bastion for the scrap metal yards that used to support Silicon Valley.
Too bad the writing is on the wall.
Real estate = billions, yard full of great materials = 1 million?
Best in the west”

“Lots of cool tools and all sorts of fun stuff for the studio woodworker. I think their wood is expensive but it works for someone without the ability to obtain flat square stock.”
“Great place! It's so much fun going in here and they really do have what you need for most construction needs. Remember to get your ice cream while you're there!”
“I'm just a handy guy who fixes his own stuff and they've helped me out of a jam on a few occasions. They will absolutely help DIYers get parts...IF you do some research before you go there and act like you belong there. That means knowing the model number of whatever you're trying to repair and ideally the mfr part number. If you're looking for a capacitor for your AC, give them the capacitor's spec (and buy a spare!).”

“Was looking for information on gas cylinders and exchange costs for my company. Sammy took care of everything I needed and was not only friendly and highly competent, he was very professional and HONEST which is exceptionally rare today. Thank you for putting up with all of my questions and generously sharing your knowledge and experience - you saved me hours of research.”
“Hassett Ace Hardware provides a reliable selection of hardware and home improvement products. The staff is generally helpful and knowledgeable, though at times assistance can be slow during busy periods. Overall, it's a convenient location option for everyday hardware needs.
Minus one star only for its parking. It's not super convenient to have a hardware store in downtown, especially when you have large units to move. But overall great store.”
“Outstanding customer service! The staff at this hardware store went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I needed. They were knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to explain different product options and how to use them properly. The team made me feel valued as a customer, and their expertise made my project much easier. Highly recommend this store for anyone looking for quality products and exceptional service!”
“We had Oros help us with plumbing questions and he was amazingly helpful. We were able to fix our plumbing issues without paying the outrageous plumber fees. We are so grateful that we have this wonderful neighborhood resource!! Thank you Oris!”
“This store is a gem! Run by a friendly husband & wife, this is an amazing place to get quality machinist tools, tooling, and INFO. Ask them; they're happy to share their knowledge.”
“The team went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I needed. They were patient, professional, and clearly know their products. Fast checkout and a smooth overall experience!”
“Great place to get dry ice for cold capping.
The only central supplier Im aware of where you can just walk in and buy however much you need, assuming its not one of the rare times its out of stock. Just call ahead to be sure <3
Staff have been perfectly friendly as long as Ive known em so Im honestly kinda baffled by the one all caps angry person i noticed in their reviews.”
“I was absolutely dying in the DMV parking lot trying to get my plates off and the employee let me borrow his flathead screw driver. Absolute hero! Thank you CAL-STEAM!”
“Great selection of American and European quality tools. Found some unique items and will return for other stuff I wanna get. I asked for help and asked a few questions. The guys at the store were helpful and kind.”
“I know Global Metrics handles more large industrial clients but went today based on reviews submitted and have to agree that customer service was great with and overwhelming selection. You won't regret going to this establishment.”
“Friendliest paint store on the Peninsula!! Been coming here for years! In addition to providing beautiful, quality paint, they also help you recycle old paint too!!!”

“Ran here as an errand for work. Staff was friendly and responsive. they got me the correct door sweeps for replacement on an older door that has outdated parts. Over all nice places, great to know there's a place with all types of hardware in the area.”
“SO much better than Home Depot. People actually work here, are helpful, knowledgeable, AND have great customer service skills. Something that is very difficult to achieve, apparently. OSH has a great selection of products and services. Great garden area, also. I will be a returning customer.”
“This is literally the BEST Ace Hardware store I've ever been to! Not only are they well stocked, but everyone there is super knowledgeable and helpful. I came in with a damaged powerwashing hose and wanted to get a replacement and didn't think they'd have what I needed, but they had a few different hoses in stock. The connectors were different than what I had, so several people who work there wanted to help me figure it out. One of them (didn't get his name, but super smart and helpful), figured out that a piece needed to be removed from my hose and cleaned up in order to connect the new hose. He took a wrench and had a really hard time removing it because it was rusted, but after multiple attempts and lots of effort, he did it! Amazing service at this particular store!”

“I am so glad I found this store!! I went in looking to see if they had horse related items and they DID!!! I found halters, fly spray, supplements, dewormers, brushes, hoof picks and shavings. I know they also have pellets/grains too. It had everything I needed! And they have Peepers! If you don't know what they are, they are really fun and useful reading glasses. Staff were super helpful and kind. This will be my go-to place for sure!!”
