Steves Hardware has never failed in having what we needed. We don’t go there for the highly agricultural or construction needs(drip irrigation or lumber, though they do have things like nails, nuts and bolts, screws, etc) but any household or garden needs, they almost always have it! The staff is extremely helpful and won’t leave you wandering around searching like most stores. Part of the store is now dedicated to kitchen/culinary products and has amazing tools for chefs as well as aspiring foodies. I’ve brought friends and family there just to snoop through the one of a kind items. So many times Steves has«saved the day» by having just the thing we needed– saving a trip to Napa. This store is a long time treasure to our town!

As far as hardware stores go this is one of my favorites. They don’t always have everything I need but they have a really good variety. Pretty cool to see ammo and guns in the back as well. Next door is a housewares store with all kinds of stuff for the kitchen and house. I will continue to support this local hardware store.

Steves is a fabulous Hardware Store! It’s not a Lumber Yard or a Home Center, but a good old American Hardware Store where you can get the parts to fix darn near anything at home or work. You can also buy guns, ammo, bait & tackle plus an exceptional selection of home wares for the Kitchen. The staff is cheery, always helpful and quite knowledgable.

I should have written this review sooner.. . But a particularly good customer service experience today prompted me to finally do it. Steves rocks! Great customer service from the friendly and knowledgeable staff, and an impressive and well-chosen selections of items(especially for a store this size). I’m pleased to be able to support a locally-owned store — I hate the chains! It seems like I have to run in to Steves for *something* at least once a week, but it’s always a pleasant shopping experience!

This hardware store has it all. You wouldn’t think that for such a tiny hardware store in St. Helena they have the depth of product selection they do. The store is well laid out, and I was quickly in and quickly out, amazing for such a smaller store. Staff was readily available to help me, although on this trip I knew exactly what I needed. They had a really nice kitchen and cookware store next door– good thing my wife wasn’t with me. What do they say? ACEISTHEPLACE(esp. in St. Helena)!

Awesome place. They have everything you could possibly want or need. This started off as my go-to spot for having keys made(super fast) but now I get everything from cleaning supplies to chicken feed here. Very friendly & helpful. They never«talk down» to me when it’s pretty obvious I’m clueless about some tool or something, which makes me like them even more! They are a tiny bit more expensive than a bigger chain store– but it’s absolutely worth a few more pennies when you get such great customer service & quality of products. I like supporting local businesses, and actually look forward to going here when I run my errands. I have to stay out of the other side, the«Homeware» section because it is just TOOCUTE! I end up spending $$$$ on all the fabulous kitchen stuff. Don’t expect to walk out of that store without something wonderful you never even knew you HAD to have.

Is it pathetic that the bf and I spent more time and money in this store on our recent vacation than any other? Sort of. But that’s how much this place rocks. Full-service hardware store with everything you need to outfit a stylish kitchen with appliances and gadgets and everything. We LOVED it. I’d never seen so many mandolines on display in one place. I think they had 5. Maybe 6. Crazy. Also super-kind, helpful staff. If every Ace were like this Home Depot would be out of business – at least I’d like to think!

We ended up here when a friend saw a beehive like wasp catcher in the window… it does double duty. both pretty and functional. The owner was super friendly and answered questions we had about how the contraption worked.

This is the best store ever! You can find everything that you need. Very classy and affordable. The new housewares stores is great! Quality brands that last a lifetime. If you are visiting Saint Helena you should stop in and then you will understand what I am talking about!!!

you need it? steve’s has it! steve’s hardware has come to the rescue on many occasions. they have all the basics, and they have them in surplus. i could live without the homewares, but i’m sure many locals appreciate the wind-chimes and decorative egg timers. to each his own.
