Their vegan treats taste better than you'd think.Order an old-fashioned birthday cake with flowers on the top for a special occasion or try their amazing vegan brownies any day of the week.
Definitely beats the Union Square location, mainly because it's always less crowded, although lines still can be lengthy.
Worth the journey to the Upper East Side for groceries, even if we don't live close by. The quality and variety of products is incredible, and everything is extremely fresh, particularly the fish.
Save a trip to Union Square and hit up this year-round market on Saturday morning. We can't resist picking up some Apple Cider Donuts and fresh loaves of bread.
We love this location not only for the fresh, extensive selection of products, but for the Beer Room and Yuji Ramen upstairs.
Our favorite place to shop for locally grown foods – just be warned, you have to be tolerant of crowds. You must go to the Red Jacked Orchards and Rick’s Picks stands!
In an area that has excellent options for grocery shopping, Fairway has much to compete with. We still come running here for the amazing cheese selection.
Definitely the busiest of the Whole Foods locations in the city, but the selection can't be beat. We love to come to the sushi bar for super fresh fish, but not during peak lunchtime hours.
A really beautiful and small market with a great selection of fruits & veggies. Come for lunch and grab a delicious sandwich. Come after 8pm and it’s half off the prepared foods.
Great old world market is your go to destination for the freshest Italian specialty meats and cheeses. Or the absolutely freshest Brie on this side of the Atlantic.
Try to avoid this location on weekends - can be a total mad house and by Sunday, they're out of stock of a lot of things. Your best bet is coming as early as possible on Monday for prime selection.
Everything at this location is super fresh - we love to pick up dinner from the burger bar or the Dosateria, followed by some gelato.
A cheaper alternative to most Manhattan grocery stores, which are grossly overpriced, but at the sacrifice of quality.
We can't say it enough - we love Fairway! A welcome addition to the Murray Hill area. The fish at this store is incredibly fresh and cheap, and the grilled chicken from the deli area is a must-buy.
Not as crazy as its Union Square brother (and there’s no wine) but you’ll forgive the lines when you get home and enjoy your delicious and inexpensive groceries.
Don’t overlook Ruthy’s Deli – if you want something quick and inexpensive (tuna on a salt bagel). We’re suckers for The Lobster Place and Bowery Kitchen Supply.
One of our favorite markets in the city, but also a great take-out lunch place with yummy sandwiches – try the Fresh Turkey with Brie. Coffee is top notch too!
Go right when they open to avoid the crowds and get the best selection. Otherwise, you’ll be forced to wait in line outside.
If you must grocery shop during the weekends, try to come here first thing in the morning before the crowds form. Great beer and frozen food selection.
Fresh produce delivered daily – and the prices are so low, you’ll be in disbelief. Go early in the day for the best selection. They take credit/debit cards.
