R-I-P O-F-F Catering to the lazy is one thing, but try walking two more blocks and you'll get the same stuff for half the price. read more

EXTREMELY OVERPRICED. They have a decent selection of goods. I've been going here for years because it's the only place in the neighborhood for certain items, but give me a break. $33 for coffee, cream, toothpaste and juice. read more

So over priced. The fact is they are the closest late hours grocery type place within miles. So yeah, I shop there but I don't like it. More expensive then whole foods? Get out of here. read more

This place is so insultingly bad. Please don't shop here! Don't encourage the owners who are now spreading their capitalist garbage by opening other shops nearby. Their food is incredibly overpriced, many times old and expired and not fit for human consumption. The bodegas on Flushing are only a few blocks away and they have normal stuff for normal prices. read more

The Million Dollar Bodega. Makes Whole Foods seem like a bargain. Furthermore, on the Morgan stop? Como say whaaaa? This isn't Manhattan, or the Bedford stop for that matter. On top of that, last time there was a line 20 deep snaked to the back of the store next to the ATM. After 10 mins, I dropped my parsley and made for the exit. The Million Dollar Bodega. Just sayin'. read more

I love this place, the service is outstanding, and food is good. As others have said, it's slightly overpriced but nothing crazy. Honestly I really like coming here. The only downfall is that its a bit more expensive, especially when you have food story across the street. read more

I really can't understand all the negative reviews of this place. It's a small, premium storefront that's open 24/7. So, don't go in expecting cheap prices; but don't go in expecting to see rats running around and grime here and there and stale produce either. Do go in expecting to find things you can't find anywhere else within walking distance, (or within short driving or biking distance) and at a price point that's not ludicrously out of step with, say, Whole Foods. And, if I'm being honest, those little Snickers ice cream bars that are so delicious? They cost $1.75 at most Bodegas, and you can snag them for $1.50 here. There are items here that are cheaper than Bodega items, there are items that are expensiver, there are items that are between. It's our job as consumers to know the price, to have a limit on how much we're paying, and, when it's 4:00 AM and ain't no other place open, shell out the cash to get the damn goods. I've had nothing but stellar customer service from this place, and even though it's small, they've never, never not had anything I needed. read more

I loved this place back in 2009, and I'm glad it's stuck around. Not quite 5 stars because it's a little too pricey.

This is a good place to go for beer. There is a placenta of other food options in close proximity. Eat the placenta.

Ok ill start off by saying its very pricy. It's an organic place so hence the prices. They have a lot of different types of wraps & they added a salad bar. Everything I have tried thus far is very good. The cooks there are super nice. Food is always fresh & they have everything you can possibly want. You need a toothbrush or shampoo? They got it. Icecream and fresh fruit? Yep,they got. Lol I go there at least 2xs a day when im at work. Try the yogurt w the fresh fruit and granola & an iced coffee. read more

Brooklyn Natural - a display case of baked goods - Grocery Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

See all

This is about the closest thing to a real grocery store around the Morgan L train, so my boyfriend and I ending up coming in here a lot. It usually has what I need, except that one time I needed condensed milk for a pie recipe and they didn't have any! The one downside is that it's definitely expensive, especially because a lot of their products are organic and such. They also don't have meat like a normal store would. Their prepared foods are pricey as well. The produce is always fresh and in good condition. The sandwiches are great! The guys behind the counter are friendly and quick. I've gotten lots of bacon, egg, and cheeses, and roast beef sandwiches here! The store is clean and bright, and the cashiers are very friendly and service is great. Everything is always super organized and it's never too crowded. The line moves fast! read more

Upscale swanky deli for swanky artists out East... hey nothing wrong with that, somehow I'm part of the woodwork here. LOL I was on a hunt for Mate, that hipster beverage of choice, what with my friend and very temporary roomate returning from Uruguay, Yerba Mate Gourd in hand. Having tried the stuff once at Burning Man, I meant to taste the stuff again. I found they carried the Guayaki branded mate here, but at no small dime. We're talking $17 for a pound of the stuff. Even more expensive than some primo single origin. Alas it solved my quest, so I grabbed it anyway. Mission accomplished. read more

I would rate this higher, but as a thrifty gal, I just can't. Had to pick up some almond butter for a new recipe I was trying, and it was $14 for a jar! OMFG! How about my first born next time? Even the girl ringing me up was surprised at the price, I didn't know whether I should look at her with a, "yeah, for real" or look down in shame for feeling like the biggest schmuck for buying $14 jars of almond butter. Regardless, great for specialty items and hard to find ingredients that my supermarket just doesn't carry, but I can't shake the feeling of lookin' like a total tool for walking in there. read more

The service is terrible. If you ask for green peas in a can they treat you like they don't know what you are talking about. After 8 years of bringing my money money to you, you should value us. This is not a cheap store, so you should be able to give the right service. And green peas in a can are nothing special, that you need to pretend you never hear off it. Actually pretty rude. And this is not the first time. read more

If it was their sandwiches I was reviewing, I would give them three stars. And if it were their grocery/convenience store I'd give them two. The groceries are hipster-esq (wide variety of frozen veggie made nugget oddities, and a bunch of indie beers) and therefore expensive. It would be nice if this was what its name purports; a place to get fresh natural food and good reasonably priced produce. Their decent sandwiches are the only things that are reasonably priced. So walk in, turn right for the sandwiches counter, menu up top, and tip that bad ass behind the counter a buck will ya? He's been slaving at it all day! read more

Over priced and the produce is often subpar. Yeah they are open late yeah you can get glutton free organic fair trade glutton (i know your itching to buy some) but I'm not impressed read more

Yes, it's expensive. Yes, you will come in for some simple ingredient and end up leaving with some gluten-free/cruelty-free/all-organic version of said ingredient for probably 3x the normal retail price in an average grocery store... HOWEVER! If you live literally right across the street like I do, or really anywhere close enough by, you will realize how badass this place is. It's open 24 hours a day. They make amazing sandwiches (get "The Apple" - trust me), even at an obscenely late hour when your only alternatives are low-quality pizza or burritos. Everything is fresh and delicious. The cashiers are the sweetest guys who have seen me drag myself to the sandwich counter at 5 a.m. after a long night at work and ask how my shift was. I wouldn't necessarily recommend coming here for things like toilet paper or dish soap because of the prices, but I'm not lying when I'm telling you that those sandwiches and a lot of other goodies they carry are worth the extra few $$. read more

Boujwick market with Boujwick prices. Not only that but they enforce a minimum charge on credit cards. Beers are overpriced. They charge a premium on everything. Convenience at a cost. read more

Staff is cranky, unhelpful. Sandwiches are bland, boring. Selection is terrible, they only carry one or two brands for any given item. They often run out of a certain food item as a result. They are WAY OVERPRICED, everything is just-as or more expensive than the Bedford ave area. They basically think they can take advantage of all the new hipster kids moving into the area. I have chosen to boycott this place as the Morgan stop area is in desperate need of a better organic grocery store. Sidenote: the associated grocer nearby has observed that the new crowd rolling into the neighborhood likes organic products, and is starting to stock shelves accordingly. read more

Not bad for what it is, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Though it's the closest store to me, I try to do all my shopping elsewhere because items here tend to be about 50 cents to a dollar more; but I know that it's hard to compete with bigger places that can buy more from the suppliers. You can't really complain about open 42 hours though. The two top things to get here: 1. Avocados - almost always ripe, and usually an ok price if they're in season. 2. Soymilk - the half gallons of Silk are $3.99, a pretty average price and cheaper than alot of other places. read more

I go here all the time to eat sandwiches and lunch. They can prepare pretty much any type of sandwich and they are delicious in my opinion. However, the rest of the store is a bit too expensive for my taste! read more

I live off the Morgan stop and while I agree that most of the grocery items are overpriced, I'm glad we have it. I only have one thing to add that I don't think has been said: Most days, they offer a $5.99 special for a hot entree, rice, and a salad. This comes in a little rectangular aluminum container about 8" x 6" x 2" with a plastic lid. What they don't tell you is that you can pretty much ask them to fill the container with whatever you want. Tonight for example, I got grilled chicken marinated in Italian dressing, corn, and macaroni and cheese, all for six bucks. This is an absolute steal. read more

Great deli, I go in and get food here all the time because this right by my brib, I'll tell you I like to get the hot food they have during the day a lot, best when they have mashed potatoes or Mac and chee, but beans and rice a lot, with some chicken cutlet, it used to be 5.99 and it was amazing, they raised it to 6.99 and got me fucked up but I still buy it because ITS GOOD!!! read more

Brooklyn Natural - Grocery Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I ask for a "roast beef and turkey", which is a sandwich with that title that has more than roast beef and turkey on it here, and get a "roast beef" sandwich, which is a different sandwich with very different ingredients. Until today I didn't know if the deli counter guy is hard of hearing, or there's something about the acoustics of the place interacting with my voice that makes it sound like I'm clearly asking for something different, or if he just doesn't give a shit, but this kind of thing has happened several times here. (I really wish he'd ask me to speak up or something! Spend two seconds confirming instead of two minutes doing the wrong thing! It's such a useful habit!) I go home, notice it's wrong, decide I'm going to try hard to get the right sandwich this time instead of tolerate the wrong thing, *write down the order for him* on a piece of paper and go back, wait for him to remake my sandwich after he got another customer's order wrong and had to redo it (because he didn't confirm what they wanted), and receive a sandwich with only roast beef and turkey on it, none of the other stuff. This is technically what I ordered, I guess, but they also technically have a sandwich with other stuff on it entitled "roast beef and turkey", and disambiguating the two could be hard if you refuse to use context clues, common sense, or confirmation to figure out what the order actually is. Clearly I do not think like deli counter guy. So, hopefully this is a mistake he's used to (since he never confirms what people are ordering) and he says "ah sorry, one second" and finally makes the thing I ordered? Nope. He *tries to argue with me*. "It says roast beef and turkey!". He argues with me about the sandwich I ordered, after I made the mistake of preemptively tipping him the first time, in the hope it might convince him to care a little more about getting it right. Instead of just making the damn sandwich. I gave up at this point; deli counter guy should find a different line of work. Something that doesn't involve following instructions or communication, ideally, whatever that might be. The groceries are overpriced SWPL bullshit, don't bother with them. The sandwiches here are pretty good, as long as you don't care *which* sandwich you get. If you do care, and you either 1. don't think exactly like deli counter guy or 2. believe that getting a sandwich need not require any conflict, you'll have a bad time. read more

There are several things at Brooklyn Natural that I get as my staples and aren't too-too expensive. Organic carrots, Kale, rice cakes, hummus, hard chickpeas, red lentils, brown rice, organic blue corn chips, tofu, miso, and avacodo's. Fruit and peanut butters and any of their packaged food like pilofs or organic canned beans are all too expensive. I've bought sourcrout that had gone bad and I really had to push them to replace it, the other one had gone bad too. So they can't totally be trusted. My hope is that a new organic health food store emerges down the street out of that place called Flushing Farms. I wish really that we had a bushwick farmers market. Or east williamsburg or what ever. Or somehow got a bunch of people to go in on a bunch of CSA shares that then got split up each week and picked up. Good food is good, but good cheap food is better. read more

This used to be my absolute favorite place until the last time I went. They got my order wrong once and when I corrected them they got angry. Then they redid it and when I noticed it was wrong again they insisted it was right and it was what I asked for. Needless to say it was wrong and I am pissed. read more

expensive? duh. convenient? HAIL mUtHaF&ckiN ch'yeAh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! overpriced, organic, small, fresh, hipster-riden, nice employees, etc. i feel half excited about BK Natural and the other half of myself says, "meh". OK- i love the fact that it's right next to the subway. it's easy to find and it's open at all times of the day. the produce is the cleanest i've ever seen in the entire neighborhood- including Khim's. the asparagus, kale, carrots, lettuce, etc. is NEVER dirty or rotting... i always buy quick veggies here- even though it's crazy expensive. the meat selection is TEENY TINY. buttttttttt... it's organic and/or grass-fed beef or organic chicken. no seafood whatsoever. the cheese section is small, but big for a little store. everything else from soups, salad dressings, drinks, beer, frozen stuff, etc. i don't really buy here unless it's a brand i never see at other grocery joints in my hood. they have a great selection of Brianna's salad dressing and Ichiban Ramyun (my favorite)... but other essentials like bath stuff, snacks/cookies, etc.- i just shop at Khim's or Trader Joe's. however, we're talking about convenience and laziness here. i'm totes guilty of this. their sandwiches are pretty yums. i've had the Pollo Loco (spicy! yummmm) and the Morgan Avenue sandwiches and a few wraps. it's been fresh, delicious and decently priced. $5.50-$6.99 at the most. i like their cold foods section the most. takeaway salads, juices, sandwiches, etc. all made in house. sometimes i'm too lazy to make my lunch for the next day and this is my first resort. read more

I live about two blocks from here, so B.N. is a great and reliable grocery store in my neighborhood. Ya, its alittle pricey, but its convenient, always fresh, clean, and always has a good selection. The beer selection is great, and I usually stop in a couple times a week to pick up a new six pack. BYOB to Robertas around the corner, and try their pizza, frickin amazing. Its fun to hang out outside to read and people watch. As Rachel A. said, convenience is priceless, and thats what I'm stickin' to. read more

Great little shop has everything I need but no reason whyt they charge the prices they do for certain items! They are the same price as most wanna-be organic shops in NYC... Why is this you ask, cause they can this hood is full of rich hipster kids and dumb artists(not saying artists are dumb). I complain once a week when I stop in for things I forget to buy elsewhere, however I don't think just my voice will help hahaha. read more

Yes, the prices don't allow for real grocery shopping, but I still find myself stopping in here nearly every day for one or two items so I don't starve. Without B-Nat or Gringo Grocery (as it's sometimes called by the locals), we would all starve. Well, by the looks of everyone in the area, everyone kind of is starving... but even the cigarettes-and-diet-Coke set would have nowhere else to get their cigarettes and diet Coke. read more

It's small but mighty. If you've been to the part of Williamsburg that everyone keeps calling Bushwick, but is actually called, East Williamsburg Industrial Park, then you know you've entered a waste land of "Boar's Head Meat" (aka Cowschwitz), cement factories, metal shops, and the occasional apartment building. But there is a buzz about this part of town, and Brooklyn Natural Foods fits right in. It's expensive, but offers a selection of natural and organic foods that would rival Big Brother "whole foods" for the quick grab and for those of us that live in the 'hood, it's a reprise from the corner delis that offer Pepsi and cigarettes and little else. The best thing about Brooklyn's Natural, is the sandwich shop, that makes oh so delicious sandwiches for about $5-6 bucks, and they taste better than kissing a toothless smoker. read more

I am now boycotting this place (except for that food platter, best deal in town). I've been going here for ten years and they've come a long way in making me hate them more and more. Just yesterday they tried to charge me $.75 for switching to cheddar over American on a sandwich I've been ordering for 8 years. Where do they get off? Never seemed to be an issue until out of the blue, let's piss off another loyal customer with some dumb price policy. I remember when this used to be a small sandwich shop with a line out the door and I wanted to tip those guys. Oh wait, they no longer work there! read more

They have almost everything you could ever want, and in an oh so cool hipster way, but it sure as hell is going to cost you.

I had to go here this morning because I forgot my lunch and I needed the essentials for my day of work like coffee and lunch so I bought tuna fish which was overpriced it cost $7.99 a pound. I also bought rice cakes and fruit. When I was checking out my instant coffee came up to $8.49 but meanwhile on the jar it said $3.49 so I picked that one . I was shocked with the price that came up I went back and got another one to show then and the other one said $3.49 too. I spoke to the girl that check me out and said that that was the price not $3.49. I said that they should honor the the price on the jar and they said that was the price that came up not $8.49. I think it is horrible customer service not to give me the price it was on every single jar on the shelf. The manager said he would not honor the price on the jar. Horrible over price place. read more

I usually pick up sandwiches from this place. Pollo Loco is definitely my favorite. Be advised because of this "trendy" neighborhood this place is pricey. The guys who make the sandwiches are rude and look miserable. Don't take It personal lol read more

People complaining about the prices here have clearly never been to any other health food store in their lives. EVERY health food bodega in Brooklyn has comparable prices and they are obviously going to be more expensive than your 'neighborhood corner store'. FFS. I like it here. Though I can't comment on the deli, the staff is (usually) friendly, and they have everything I need. Good for the "shit I forgot to buy this at the store" moment. read more

This place is a joke. They were out of hero rolls so i ordered my regular sandwich on a roll. I think its common knowledge that if your sandwich is on a roll its a price drop, however, the owners were completely disrespectful when I asked if the price was lowered and said not only was it the same peice but that I should leave the establishment and called me an asshole for even asking for a price drop. Everything at their store can be bought at another bodega for less money and their crew is a bunch of jerks for insulting me because I asked for a legitimate price decrease. I wont be shopping at their overpriced and overhyped store any longer after this experience. What a bunch of delinquents. read more

This place is awesome and has these really great paintings on the outside that I like to look at as I walk past on the way to the train. And you know that you're being socially responsible shopping here. Oh if ONLY it were cheaper I would actually go grocery shopping here all the time rather than just going occasionally when i need something in semi-desperation. Still I do go here a fair bit. It's 24-hours and a sight for sore eyes if I get a crazy hunger pane at some weird hour. I like the staff too. read more

i like their 'raisin nut mix' cuz it's kinda cheap and i'm a sqwerl. their crap's got good morals, but their prices need some ethical cleansing. read more

They have a good selection of natural foods, fresh produce, prepared foods to go, beer, natural household products and their made to order counter has a decent selection of options however, they are EXTREMELY OVERPRICED. It is definitely the best natural food store in the area but its unfortunate that their prices are so ridiculous. read more
