They had a lot of Indian goodies, from candy and juices and jarred goods, along with samosas in a mini oven, ready to eat. We also found loads of Asian candies, and a million flavors of Oreo products. Pricing was reasonable. I went with a friend, who bought a bunch of goodies that felt nostalgic. It's a simple place, decorated in a funky way, with a lot of fun products to try.

Delight Corner is a little tiny store took down in the basement on a side street in Boston's…read more Chinatown. I'm not sure how they make money because there's not a lot of things there but it has been there for quite a while they do have a few rare herbs and dried items which I believe is what keeps them in business. They do have miscellaneous fruits and the standard corner store items. Usually when I walk in there's a very pleasant woman sitting at the counter always says hello whether I purchase something or I don't. It's wonderful to see a shopkeeper that actually takes pride in her store. Kudos to the delight corner store. I Give a Solid 4 Stars.

After leaving Wai Wai restaurant a few doors down we passed by this tiny grocery store located in a…read morebasement on Oxford Street. This tiny store wasn't very appealing when we first wandered by, but what caught our eye was the lychees for sale on the street level outside the store. When we wandered into the shop they had a ton of frozen and vacuum sealed items with little fresh groceries. The cashier was present physically but barely made a peep when we said hello. We ended up buying a bag of lychees which were amazing. Beyond these, the store was fairly bland and there are plenty of other shops in the area selling similar items. Final thought, if you enter the store with items from a different store be prepared to be vigorously questioned about paying for them here. We had this experience with a few bottles of water we brought in.

Homebest Market in Allston is a small Asian snack store that punches well above its size. We walked…read moreinto a compact but well organized space, with shelves lined with snacks, drinks, and pantry staples from across Asia. The selection is genuinely impressive for a shop of this footprint, covering a range that you would otherwise have to travel further for. The layout is easy to navigate and the store feels well stocked without being cluttered. The snack aisles are the main draw. We noticed the Chinese matcha options in particular stand out, with a variety that goes beyond what most spots in the area carry. Prices are affordable across the board, which makes it easy to stock up without thinking too hard about it. The ice cream in the back freezer bin is worth knowing about, especially during warmer months when a cold snack on the way out makes the stop feel complete. Service is welcoming and the kind of place where regulars are clearly appreciated. We felt a genuine warmth from the staff, and when we spent a little more than usual, the experience was pleasant in a way that feels like a neighborhood shop rather than a transactional convenience stop. Overall, Homebest Market is the spot to know in Allston for anyone with an interest in Asian snacks and drinks. We would come back for the matcha options and the ice cream, and we appreciate that we can find so much in such a small space without breaking the bank.

That said, ebo groceries is a small corner shop that I think is quite cool. Pricey, yes, but it's because it's a specialty shop. Oysters, bougie cheeses, kombucha, fruit, basically a bunch of stuff for charcuterie boards, and on weekends they have croissants. In addition to food, they have records, retro/contemp-style posters, and small (some might call raw or controversial) art. Personally, I like it. Downstairs there is a cookbook speakeasy. It's a vibe! Like a low-key lounge. You won't realize it's there, and no one seems to advertise it. Great for gifts!
