Good News Restaurant Supply

Just bought my second True brand commercial cooler, ice merchandiser from Isaiah at good news. Good product. MADE IN THE USA. Sold by locals to local small businesses.
It cost (literally) a couple hundred more dollars than buying from the internet, but well worth it. Best local/​over the hill price AND They delivered on our schedule, set it up, hauled away the old one for $ 50.
The old unit had a handy built in shelf, New one did not, but they sold & set up a self supporting single shelf and it works great.
Nothing fancy, but it’s a great place to buy new commercial products for your small business.

I own a restaurant on the Westside of Santa Cruz and find this place to be an excellent source of items on a frequent basis. Purchased water sprayers for dishwashing, parts for the ice machine, water filters and other things that we suddenly need!
They have a helpful person (Luke) who seems to be able to find whatever you want in some dark corner of the store… and the prices are very fair
a useful place to know

This place is filthy and disorganized like some of the reviewers have already stated. Don’t go when it’s warm out cuz there’s no AC or breeze. First and last time I go there. Quality and selection of the products are not great either. I’m surprised the store can stay in business. Don’t waste your time, drive over the hill to San Jose to a real restaurant supply store.

Stoked I stopped in Good News! I have been looking for kitchen basics and wasn’t finding them anywhere else in town. I found what I was looking for at good prices. I also saw things that I’ve used in restaurants and really wished I had. Like those long ice tea spoons. They’re perfect for so many things! John, who helped me was very pleasant and attentive. He helped me find the stuff I needed. I’ll be going back for sure…

Don’t go here… no customer service, very shady, totally disorganized, no clear policies on sales or consignment. I never post reviews on Unilocal,yet my experience with Good News has compelled me to warn you all. They should be called Bad News Restaurant Supply.

I agree with Bill. I own a small business and the 2 – 3 times I’ve gone into the store, the help lacked any knowledge of the products the sold and they were not helpful at all. I drive to Seaside for my supplies now!

Good news? More like bad news! Probably the most unprofessional rude people I have ever met. I went in looking for a mixer and other kitchen supplies. Ended up barely getting helped and almost scammed. The supplies I saw were not only overpriced but many were incredibly dirty and in bad condition. The helpers in the back had to be on drugs and the whole vibe was disorganized. Id reccomend going to a good supply store in san jose and skipping out on this cess-​pool!

I was looking to buy some large quantities of glassware to use for an upcoming party I’m having. Good News is not a real big business but it has all the basics of glasses, plates, cookware, utensils, etc. There was a mom and son working the afternoon I went in that were SO helpful. They weren’t the usual salesmen but they were so conscientious and tried to see if they could find what I was looking for. The inventory is limited so we had to use the catalogs. They spent a lot of time with me and I was very appreciative. I decided to wait until I have the exact # of guests coming so I know how many items to purchase. Super customer service, just limited quantity of items. On a side note, a great place to go and get some super bargains of limited items. If I was going away to college and needed to supply my dorm, this would be the place to go! Good News is a Restaurant Supply store, not a party place but I couldn’t find the right category to put it in on Unilocal
