We live in 70 Green St and used to go to this market every day at the beginning. But the truth is they got very poor quality control of fresh goods. We bought watermelon that had super bad smell and a coconut that was too old and didn’t have any coconut water inside. We tried to communicate with the manager and I was told their policy didn’t allow customer to either have an exchange or refund. If you get something of bad quality from their store, it’s just ironically bad luck and they cannot do anything about it. Just go to WholeFoods if you live nearby.
It's just not what I expected. I am all about supporting local small business, but wow, are the staff rude. The food is also overpriced. Such a disappointment. I would rather walk two blocks and go to Whole Foods. I just moved to the area and thought cool. It's not all that. The ready to eat isn't that fresh and just the staff, geez.

I usually enjoy shopping here, but had a surprisingly uncomfortable encounter with a cashier today that will likely make me hesitate to return.
After I had paid for my order, and was finishing bagging my items, the cashier very audibly leaned over to her colleague next to her and said about my order: “Jesus Christ! $99 for sixteen items!” While I did not respond to her rudeness, it made me quite uncomfortable and starkly embarrassed me. I try to live a conservative lifestyle, and am far from wealthy, but I do like to splurge a bit on cooking ingredients. However, this cashier made me feel as though my choices were foolish, and that is a terrible feeling on my one afternoon off of the week. I do not need to be price-shamed at my grocery store.
I wish I had chosen a different store, and will in the future.

Review is for Deli only. Stopped by to have a quick Coffee with a friend, and they have some decent options for Cold and Hot Beverages. Coffee and Lemonade that we ordered was pretty good. One major drawback is that the Checkout line is same for regular shoppers checking out items from the Market, as well as for those who are just ordering from the Deli. We had to wait in line for along with the other shoppers just to place our orders. I hope they change this.
Such a great neighborhood grocer! Having a membership and gaining points to earn towards $20 off really helps balance the cost of most items, even though prices on many items aren’t as high as you’d think. They have yummy premade food as well! Employees are always kind and speedy during checkout. Highly recommend :)
Great supermarket. I wish hours could be longer. They have mostly everything. They have great cheese and bread options. They also have great plants and funny plants pot. Their cashier and girls who make summer refresher is amazing. I like their violet lemonade summer drink. She made it great!
