Essentials
Western Beef Supermarket
1203 E New York AveGood for all your basic grocery needs, with a growing organic section.
Trader Joe's
130 Court StI love this store, but don't go during rush hour.
Sahadi's
187 Atlantic AveThe store is renown for their bulk grains and nuts.
If you DO go to Trader Joes and there's a line outside, this Key Food down the block is a decent alternative. It's a tad pricier, but they have a diverse selection of food and a wonderful produce section.
