I stopped in here quickly this morning for coffee and a newspaper. Thought about eating breakfast too, especially after hearing another patron express how much he enjoyed his breakfast burrito, but my husband wanted to check out Harriet’s breakfast café down the road. We did end up coming back for lunch though and both ordered sandwiches. The guys working were friendly on both trips. The lunch sandwich was custom made to my liking, with toasted sourdough slices and cheese & all the veggies they had. They also offered spicy mustard when I said I love mustard. It was very good! Casey had ham and cheese on sourdough. The sandwiches came with a pickle slice and were just under $ 10 each. A little on the pricey side, but they were fresh & tasty, and service was exceptional.

Was in the Minden area and wanted to see something off the main highway. Rode to Genoa and the Country Store and got more than I expected. Beautiful town and Country Store. Went inside and ordered one of the best tuna sandwiches ever. Even better were the two persons working there. They were 100% customer oriented, something I don’t see much of. Enjoyed the sandwich and a bottle of water in the shade of the trees next to a slow street. I will return when I have more time to enjoy Genoa and the Country Store.

What a gem this place is. The whole town is worth the trip but sad we missed the museums. They closed in October. The country store has a fantastic deli and a cute gift shop to walk through while you are waiting for sandwiches. The deer walk right into town. We live close so we will be back often.

First time trip here and the lady working behind the counter didn’t want to do anything. She acted busy but was just wandering around. And I’m sorry, $ 5 for a hot dog? $ 7 for a plain burger? $ 6 for a brat? If you’re going to charge that much it better be gourmet. If this was the only place we stopped in «Historic Genoa,» we would never return.

My veggie sandwich was packed with fresh ingredients. Add the extra avocado-it’s worth it. Even the dill pickle was de’lish and crunchy. I received excellent service from a kind and friendly young lady who is a fellow vegan.

What a nice charming little country store! They have a deli, homemade ice cream, a full bar, and all kinds of knick knacks and souvenirs. They have lots of local food products which is always a cool thing. If you’re passing through Genoa make sure you stop off here and it’s not too touristy if you go there during the week.

Amazing panini’s, homemade ice cream, gifts and more! And; who would expect a full bar?!? I had the #1. A Turkey, pesto, spinach panini with two cookies and a drink. It was better than any spinach turkey panini I’ve ever had! I would recommend this small country store to anyone passing through town or traveling past Carson city into Lake Tahoe!

Great little all purpose store in one of the oldest towns in Nevada. I have a feeling this country store is a little more touristy than it would have been back in the day(lots of souvenirs for purchase), but otherwise, it is a great stop for travel size toiletries, basic food items(the produce was a bit shriveled), snacks, or coffee or an ice cream cone. They serve locally produced ice cream. I have to say I was impressed with the mint chocolate chip. We didn’t try the food counter, but it looks like they have some lunch offerings if you’re hungry for something more than ice cream. The clerks were friendly, and the atmosphere was nice. I’m glad we stopped in!

You must fill out an order sheet even if you are ordering one of the panini specials on the menu. The panini was no different than a regular tuna melt. It did not have special panini bread. I have no idea why it was more expensive than ordering a tuna melt. Tourist special? Service was rushed and unfriendly.(It was very busy.) After waiting 10 minutes, we were asked pointedly«Can I help you?» in a way that implied we were occupying a table for no reason. I said we were still waiting for our order. No apology — just walks away to get it ready. I don’t think the employees here are very happy. We planned to get ice cream, but service seemed so put out that we skipped it. Just as well since I lost my lunch on the glider ride afterward.

Need a hand-made sandwich and some great soup for lunch? THIS is the place. I have eaten here many times both eat-in and take-away. Of the many people I know who have eaten here, I have never heard of a problem such as Russ e.(12÷2÷2012) experienced — — but I’ve had tainted egg products at 5-star hotels so it can certainly happen anywhere. With the New Genoa Trail open, this is a great spot to enjoy that post-hike cool-down. There’s even a library adjacent.

Have eaten there before and food was good. Ate there yesterday and friend got horrible food poisoning with in about three hours from egg salad and tuna salad mix. Called next morning to advise them of possible risk and they got hostile on the phone with me saying that it could not have been their problem. Will never eat there again and will be reporting them to the Health Dept to have their food inspected.

Excellent sandwiches and some of the kindest staff I have ever seen.

The customer service was friendly, nice and really helpful. As for the food, the chicken soup was awesome. The cup was pretty big and a sandwich. I wonder what a bowl would look like… My sister in law stated the chilli soup was great. All our sandwiches was good and enough to keep our stomach full for awhile.(panini sandwiches was what we got)

There is something eerily comforting about sitting at an outside table with the new owner of the Genoa Country Store, smoking cigars, sipping on some Wild Turkey, half-listening to the 30’s music gently wafting from the outside speaker, watching a car go by every twenty minutes or so, as the sun slips behind Genoa Peak. Was that Baby Face Nelson that just drove by, looking for a place to hole up for a while? Well whatever you do, don’t call him«Baby Face» to his face, if you know what’s good for you. He’s just here to use the WiFi connection and then he’s outta here. But I can see why he’d want to stop here. Pastries as big as your head. Cowboy hats and shirts. A decent selection of wine and liquor. A can of chili. Diapers. Cigars. Handi wipes and kleenex. Sandwiches. Beer. Detergent. Mayonnaise. It really is a country store, with just enough of what you need to get you by. Great hand-made sandwiches and pastries. Tahoe Creamery Ice Cream scooped into a cone for you. Hey, even an open mic night on Friday. New owner Ron Benedetti has plans to make the Store a little more of a center for Genoa than it already is. Maybe a Cigar/Fight night outside, where you can watch the fights and smoke cigars and maybe even curse a little. All the gentlemen at the store when I was there thought it was a splendid idea. What was really strange– for a city dweller– is how even the lowliest peon coming in for a six pack was welcomed like he was a long lost cousin. People seem to *like* coming here, not just because they don’t feel like driving ten miles for beer. Before Super Wal Marts, your Country Store was where you went for your one stop shopping. Take a break here on your next trip to Genoa. But keep an eye on the website for special events.

Perhaps other general stores in the eastern sierra have more panache but I’ve been to most and Genoa is a crown jewel. Stopped in during Superbowl while activity in town was deadish. The staff recommended mac n chili which made my day. I was also privy to some bomb carrot cake. The food is clearly made with TLC. The staff helped me locate some interesting Genoa landmarks. Their service went beyond the call. I recommend GCS to all. Heard about good times at the side-bar but haven’t experienced this function to date.

I usually manage to wander in here when I come to Genoa with Gayle. It has an interesting and funky feel as a market, deli, and even a bar. It also has a nice little outdoor seating area. This area is also offers a welcome rest(and shade) during Candy Dance. Newspapers are also available here. The sandwiches that I have ordered here from the deli have been surprisingly tasty and fresh. I too wouldn’t recommend a special trip, but it doesn’t get much better than a nice sandwich and a beer either here or across the street at the Genoa Bar on a nice day in this very charming town.

We stopped here for sandwiches after a day at the hot springs nearby on someone’s recommendation and they were awesome. I have a thing for Reubens — a sandwich filled with stuff that by itself, I hate, but all together, is serious warm delicious goodness. Everything was insanely fresh and toasted to perfection. My friend had a plain old turkey sandwich on sourdough and the lettuce was crisp, colorful and also tasty. If you are bumming around Genoa, which is not very large, I would recommend sitting on the porch for lunch. I wouldn’t, however, drive here all the way just to eat.
