21227 Foothill LLC

Garden of Eden is at 21227 Foothill Boulevard in unincorporated Cherryland, about 1.1 miles in a straight line from Hayward BART. The operator says Foothill curb parking is off limits 7 to 9am and 4 to 6pm; outside those hours park on Foothill, or use Apple Avenue, Locust Street or Ash Street. Keep clear of driveways and neighboring business lots.

Two AC Transit lines stop close to the store. Line 93 stops at Foothill Blvd & Grove Way, about 0.2 miles in a straight line, on its route from Bay Fair BART through downtown Hayward to Castro Valley BART; its timetable lists a bus about every 40 minutes on weekdays and about hourly on weekends and holidays. Line 9 (E. 14th St. - Mission) stops at Mission Blvd & Cherry Way and Mission Blvd & Blossom Way, both about 0.3 miles away, and its timetable lists departures from Hayward BART about every 15 minutes on weekdays and every 20 minutes on weekends.

Castro Valley BART is the other nearby station: AC Transit's stop there is about 1.1 miles in a straight line, and Line 93 runs from it to Foothill Blvd & Grove Way. Flying into Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport (OAK), the airport says its BART station is across the street from the terminals, trains leave about every 6 minutes for most of the day, and the ride to Coliseum, which connects to all BART destinations, takes about 8 minutes. Capitol Corridor trains stop at Hayward (HAY), 22555 Meekland Avenue, about 1.3 miles away; the station is unstaffed, and AC Transit Line 34 links it with Hayward BART.

Bring a valid government photo ID showing you are 21 or older; the store checks it on every visit. You can order ahead and pay online or at the counter. A prepaid order is held for five days, and the help desk can arrange curbside pickup. The counter takes cash and debit, and there is an ATM on site.

The store lists 9am to 9pm daily, with same-day delivery orders taken until 7pm. Garden of Eden says it opened in Hayward in 2003. Its DCC license, C10-0000295-LIC, lists Alameda County as the local jurisdiction.

At pickup, tell the front desk you have an online order and show your government ID; the name on it has to match the order. Prepaid orders, paid by bank transfer, have their own line. At the door, large bags and backpacks stay with security at the front desk, hoods come down inside, and anyone who comes in with you must also be 21 or over.
