And I can't believe I didn't think to write this until now, because they are wonderful. On the most recent trip, they had blueberries at $1.99 each container. Now if you know our fam, you know that Bubs loves his fruit. We can't keep it, especially blueberries, in the house long enough for anyone else to enjoy but him. That's why, it's great when I pass here and I can't believe grab some on the way home. The prices are great and the people are quick at the counter. Also the selection is GREAT. All kids of fruits and veggies to choose from. So worth grabbing something from here if you pass by. And you can't beat it for some of their prices!

Pretty awesome spot!!…read more I can speak for the smoothie/juice bar which is an extension of the market area. Based off of first impression this spot is very clean. They have the fruits and veggies ready to go and all of them are bright and fresh. Nothing looked like it had been sitting out. The service was quick and friendly too. They also have free samples of hot apple juice. I tried the one with pomegranate and it was delicious. Literally the most perfect fall treat! What we had: - Yellow Power Smoothie: my husband got this and he says it was really good. It was perfectly balanced and he drank this one pretty quickly! - Build your own Juice: love that they have this option! So helpful when you don't exactly vibe with any of the ones on the menu. I chose one with carrot, orange, and watermelon. The juice was perfectly balanced! I tasted hints of all the components in every sip, not too much of any one ingredient. I would definitely make this my go to spot for juices and smoothies if I lived in the neighborhood. 100% recommend!

Pros: Carries a great variety of imported food from the Mediterranean (i.e. Greek honey and spices,…read moreItalian beans/flour, Turkish pistachio spread). I would come here specifically for those type of items - that's the highlight of this grocery store. Cons: Those 6 parking spots in the front are coveted AF (to quote Dylan from the TV show Severance). I've almost seen a few fights breaks out over those spots, and in my opinion it's not worth it because people don't know how to reverse out of the spot and will end up scraping the side of your car. No trip to Raspberry Farm is complete without honking at someone or getting honked at - it's part of the experience. Also, as other reviewers have said, many of the items on the shelves are expired. Be sure to always check the expiration date of anything you buy.

If you accept going to this international supermarket as a visit to a third world country (in…read moreWhitestone) you can enjoy excellent prices on imported goods and everyday grocery items. Strong representation from Greece in the form of cheeses, oils, grains, olives, and specialty items. Turkish, Moroccan and Spanish/Latin American groceries show up when available. High-quality imported Italian pasta, tomatoes, snacks, crackers, sweets. Entire wall of nuts and dried fruits, good section of hard to find flours like chickpea and potato. Now and then a random item shows up on sale, offering a chance to sample a new olive oil or balsamic vinegar. Very good job bringing seasonal imports in around the holidays - pandoro, panettone, torrone. Caveats are: freshness of produce is hit or miss, and ALWAYS check the expiration dates as sometimes older stuff stays in stock.

I hate to have to write a negative review about the only 24 hr grocery store in the area, as its…read morehours of operation is a positive one cannot overlook, but warning others of a store policy that is posted nowhere publicly is unfortunately a necessity. This store sold me a carton of Stonyfield milk that, upon opening, I discovered was curdled & had a strong, pungent odor. Although they could technically be liable for this, I gave them the benefit of the doubt & didn't return the milk to a small business b/c I didn't want to inconvenience them or deprive them of necessary funds. After all, while they *could* be the reason it was expired based on how the item was stored/refrigerated, it could also have been an issue with the distribution center, the transit from the distribution center to the store, etc. Instead, I contacted the manufacturer, Stonyfield, directly w/ my complaint. Stonyfield proceeded to send me a manufacturer's coupon to replace the spoiled item. Already as a consumer I was inconvenienced, b/c I paid for a product I could not use and that could have gotten me ill had I accidentally consumed it, & I couldn't replace the item I needed in the moment until weeks later when the manufacturer's coupon was mailed to me, but at least i was able to get a replacement *eventually.* Except... I wasn't able to get a replacement ever! So this store basically profited off of selling an expired product & there is no recourse on my end! I brought the manufacturer's coupon back to the store on Sunday, June 14, and a cashier told me the store does not accept coupons. I was aware that some stores do not accept certain coupons and may not issue store coupons themselves, but I was not aware that it was possible for a store that has a relationship with a brand and stocks said brand in their store to not accept legal tender, i.e. a manufacturer's coupon. Especially when the only reason I was in this position was that I purchased a spoiled product from their store. I asked for clarification about how they were able to work w/ a brand whose manufacturer's coupons are not accepted (not even a true coupon- it didn't provide me a discount, it was for a free item to replace what I purchased already). The employee seemed unwilling to engage in any conversation- really forcefully, he just repeated dismissively, "we do not accept ANY coupons." I asked if they made the brand aware of this policy prior to contracting with them to stock their products- it seemed unlikely to me that the brand was aware of this (I called the brand later on and confirmed they hadn't heard of such a case- in fact, the Stonyfield representative I spoke with stated that "I have worked here for 17 years" & has never had a case like this get reported in 17 years). I also asked why this policy wasn't publicly posted anywhere - at the very least, if the policy was listed *somewhere*, consumers could be aware prior to making a trip to this location. It's pretty unfair to have a policy like this & expect customers to telepathically intuit it. The worst part about this is that I discovered, in reaching out to the manufacturer for a second time to let them know, is that a person in my situation basically has no recourse in the matter, which is almost indistinguishable from theft to me. I paid for a product under the assumption I could consume said product- I could not consume said product, so I paid for something I didn't use. The brand *only* sends manufacturer's coupons as compensation. If one cannot use said vouchers, then they're basically out of luck if they happen to live in food desserts (I don't live in a food dessert but the next most local grocery store doesn't stock stonyfield milk products... unsurprising given my experience w/ the brand). If they notify the store, the store of why they find this policy unfair, the store can just refuse, as this one did, to make an exception to their strict coupon policy. If one notifies the store that they should at least disclose this policy, the store can again refuse. So notifying the retailer itself does nothing. With having attempted to communicate with both the store & the brand directly, since I'm basically permanently out of the ~$7 I spent on milk, the only avenue left at my disposal is to write a review, which probably does nothing but at least it serves as a warning for others. After this atrocious experience I have started thinking about some other red flags about this location that I previously glossed over, like the fact that they have illegally added credit card fees every single time I have paid w/ a debit card or prepaid card or gift card. My understanding of New York State Law is that businesses are allowed to add fees to credit card purchases, but are prohibited from charging these fees on forms of payment that aren't credit cards, i.e. debit cards & other prepaid cards.
