Market Crates has become a must-stop on every trip I make into Midtown. The staff may very well be…read morethe friendliest in New York City and they always greet customers with a smile while keeping things moving quickly and efficiently, even during busy times. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and offers something for everyone, whether you're grabbing breakfast, lunch, or supper. Over multiple visits, I've worked my way through everything from bagels and breakfast sandwiches to grain bowls, salads, and deli sandwiches, and I've never been disappointed. One thing you absolutely shouldn't overlook is their daily soup selection. It's outstanding and worth checking out every visit! Great food, great people, and great service are what keep me coming back whenever work brings me into the city. Keep up the fantastic work!

I use to live in Hell's Kitchen 20 yrs ago they had a larger storefront in the area so I'm glad they are still around. On 9th Ave, close to Moynihan station. Pricing for example: $1.99LB for kale. $1 LB for loose beets. Also a great place if you just want to buy a small quantity if you are a single or in a small household. Also great place if you are a Juicer! Note they close relatively early at 630pm M to Sat. And earlier on Sundays

Found a table in the shade and watched the world walk by. It's a smaller location with a confusing cramped layout but carries all the normal stuff. Seating area and salad bar upstairs.

Grand Central Market is one of the best places inside the terminal to pick up something genuinely…read moregood before a train. It feels more like a compact gourmet market than a typical station food court, with fresh produce, breads, pastries, cheese, seafood, prepared foods, chocolates, teas and specialty groceries all arranged along one long passage. My best tip is to walk through the entire market before buying anything because each counter has something different. Most merchants also have their own register, so leave extra time when purchasing from several places. The passage can become crowded during the weekday commuter rush, and browsing is much easier between the morning and evening peaks. The Lexington Avenue entrance near 43rd Street is particularly convenient. Prices are higher than at an ordinary supermarket, but the location, presentation and quality make it worthwhile, especially for a train snack, hotel-room food or a small New York gift. I paired some fresh fruit from the market with a PROTABAR I had brought along. The unusual combination of egg whites, dates, hazelnuts and cocoa butter, with 15 grams of protein and no added sugar, made me curious enough to look more closely at the brand. Allow around 20 to 30 minutes to explore properly. Clean, colorful, convenient and much more interesting than grabbing the first snack you see near the platforms.

This time around, I stopped for cheese and picked up two blocks for a fun night in including SwissRaqulet, which looks fantastic. Another stop for some turmeric at the spice store. Then over to the bakery for a loaf of rye with sunflower seed and peasant style sourdough. Well, they're a snuck in a pan su chocolate for the train ride home. Can't forget my daughter who took care of things in my absence so a quick stop to the candy shop for pecan clusters, then a race to the finish on Metro North Hudson line.

THANK YOU for opening this place when stiles closed down…read more Why this place is Stiles 2.0 1) Better hours (omg I can come here after work!!) 2) Cleaner (I don't have to be grossed out if someone bumps into me with their shopping basket) and better lighting so it doesn't feel like I'm in a dungeon 3) More selection (there's pickles ~$1.27, roasted peppers, dried pastas, sauces, snacks. while they still have $2 egg cartons, $1 herbs, coffee beans, bread, cheap fruits and veggies based on season) I think the prices are a teeeeeeny bit more expensive than Stiles used to be, but still very very reasonable compared to chain grocery stores around the area. Not sure how packed this place gets on the weekends but weeknights are pretty good!
