johanson Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 I just went to Pancho's new and much larger Deli Market. It was fantastic. It is so much better than anything else lakeside. He did say it was a SOFT opening and that means that not all of the shelves are totally stocked. But things are getting closer to totally filled. There were many many clients and the lines were long. But the staff worked as fast as they could. Again, it is so much better than Superlake. You have got to take a look. It is just east and same side of the street as Clinica Maskaras. He is going to do very very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 No, he says. And he will be expanding the current one over time. I'm hoping for a totally new SuperLake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 There's parking behind the building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgates Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lots of parking, in front, side street, back street. Very impressive store. I noticed he has bulk pancetta, something I have looked for around here or Guadalajara for years without success. Nice bakery too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm1mex Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Someone told me it was near Brisis restaurant on the mountain side. Is Pancho's on the lake or mountain side. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 South. Where the courthouse was for a while. Two story huge building. Just a few hundred feet east of Clinica Maskaras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Went to Pancho's today. Looked for the items I get at Superlake and they didn't have any of them. Talked to a nice young lady and she put the names of the items I want on her notepad. Hopefully, they will eventually have them. Checked out the cold cases and looked for Presidente butter. They only have the unsalted variety. The parking situation seems iffy. There was no current parking around the corner, but there is some across the street to the East. It's a very nice store which we will patronize when their shelves are fully stocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennis clark Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 sure would be nice to have an ATM machine there.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 I wouldn't want one there. I use cash, yes, but I get it elsewhere. A machine will only add to the parking issues, and I know Pancho hates them because when they need maintenance, the store gets blamed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerobill Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 They had the salted butter yesterday but apparantly sold out. I really admired their foresight in setting up additional checkout tables to handle the large crowd. Bread section is particular attractive. I’m sure he’ll do well and it will push everyone else to sharpen up thei act. Great for all of us who live on the east side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 It's a great store with lots of growth options, looks like. Very modern. Excellent bakery area, and the produce was super-fresh. I kinda dug the bar attached to the outside in the courtyard, with imported beer and taps. Lots of tables. with luck, price stickers on the shelves soon. Cheese wheels were gigantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgates Posted October 21, 2018 Report Share Posted October 21, 2018 Spoke with Pancho on Friday. Lots of new items coming in the next couple weeks, including Pillsbury refrig biscuits and Tillamook cheese. There is Fortuna beer on tap and a nice patio. He said he went to a big food show in Mexico City and hooked up with a number of new distributers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xena Posted October 21, 2018 Report Share Posted October 21, 2018 The store is not yet fully stocked. Besides, why should it have the same items as Superlake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted October 22, 2018 Report Share Posted October 22, 2018 He's doing an amazing job. Salted butter was there Saturday morning. Most of the prices stickers were up. Lots of parking around back. Looking forward to watching it grow. Don't forget, he opened this place as soon as he could to meet constant demand. And don't forget, the other half of the building on the ground floor is going to be finished to add a whole lot more grocery store products... but it takes time.

Alfa Posted October 22, 2018 Report Share Posted October 22, 2018 Cmon moderator, isn't it about time you cut off all this free advertising for Pancho. I otice the GR also provided more free advertising in the form of an "article". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
