I won't shop here any more.. even though there's inflation.. this store has tripled their prices , compared to other local supermarkets. For instance, Fancy Feast cat food.. other supermarkets raised it from 99 cents to $1.09.. Keyfood raised the same tiny canned cat food to $1.59!! All their food products are now expensive.. not good for this small community. Aside from this current inflation .. they want us to pay for their store renovation. SMH‍ read more

If I could issue a zero I would you have retards as Career Cashiers Vanessa and Kimberly should standing around gossiping about every customer negatively and get their orders correct this clearly isn't neurosurgery, 4 times the bird brains forgot to place my 6 cases of water on my delivery which resulted in me waiting another 2 hours for the delivery guy to come back to my residence it's no wonder this is their career have fun ladies lolo read more

Plus: location but no parking lot. Good selection considering the size. Instead of throwing stuff out when it gets to the sell-by date like major chain supermarkets, they often put fluorescent pink stickers on at 1/2 or 1/3 price - eggs, dairy, sausages etc. Bargains, and ecological. Minus: VERY UNPROFESSIONALLY RUN. I bought a cottage cheese pint with the sticker. Got home, opened it, and there was blue mold on top. A sealed one should be good for weeks after the sell by date - obviously contaminated at packing. It all tasted moldy. Next time at the store I brought the empty container with the big 1.99 sticker back, obviously from that store. They had to call the manager, who interrogated me about why I didn't call the store (like I would think that would make any difference or they would want to be bothered and besides it was closed) and where was my receipt (couldn't find it in the recycling) and when did I buy it (obviously, a couple days before or on the sell-by date). She wasn't going to give me a refund of $2 effing bucks. I argued and wasn't going to give in so eventually she did, with a loud argumentative lecture. Clearly no way to treat a customer. The cashiers all try to do a good job but change over CONSTANTLY - clearly they are underpaid, poorly treated, or both. The last semi-remodeling was a year or two ago. They stopped before replacing the flooring, which is broken up linoleum of various kinds with big bare spots like a ghetto bodega. read more

Terrible service. Mediocre selection. Ridiculously high prices. Sadly, this is the supermarket closest to my home. I use it as seldom as possible, because I always leave feeling like I've been abused and ripped-off. Don't even stop at the produce! It is always low-end, nearly rotting, and priced as if you are at an organic market in Beverly Hills. The cashiers have never been pleasant. If you can shop elsewhere, do it! read more

Are you a salad lover? Then you must try the Tri-Color Pasta Salad!!! It is very fresh 'n delicious. No wonder I keep on coming back for more! The groceries price is right at this Key Food, much better than some of the nearby supermarkets. read more

See all

Renovated not too long ago. This branch needed it and I am super pleased. They have a nice selection. Several cashiers are super nice and welcoming. Warning. Never go on a Tuesday. Big mistake. New inventory comes in and even though the aisles are wider it's a tight squeeze. Majority of the gents are nice and have manners but there are several that are nasty and mumble in a foreign language. Not respectful. We are there to shop which keeps them employed so patience is required. Especially during these high priced days. read more

I never encountered a cashier with an attitude here, but I'm not saying there aren't any. They're not all cheery but the act professionally and do their job efficiently. The store is well stocked and is very clean. I usually come for their salads, fruits or other staple items. It's usually not very crowded whenever I visit, but the aisles are pretty tight. If it gets crowded there, it would be some kind of gridlock. read more

If I can give your customer service zero stars, I would. Someone needs to train those nasty cashiers some customer service skills. It's not one cashier, it's all of them. No hello, no thank you when you get to their register. I can literally say hello and thank you and get ignored. They throw my groceries in the bag and smash everything together. Who puts raw meat in the same bag with fruits and veggies? Who throws a crap load of cans in one bag? Is that how you allow them to treat your customers when we spend our hard working money there? This effin store is a joke! read more

One of the cleaner Keyfoods in the Brooklyn area. Most of them are old and dirty with bad management. This location however had clean aisles, nice staff and pretty good tunes (yes the music playing in the supermarket helps me shop better). Just no parking, which can suck if you have a lot of bags to carry to the car. read more

This place gets two stars ...the people that work there are unprofessional ...when I I ask for something they would say go look for it yourself ...ok if you hate helping customers why work at a supermarket I don't understand... Across the street is met food another supermarket which is like competition... They keep lowering the prices while the key food always stays the same ...only reason I even step inside this store cause my family comes here just for the hell of it ...I for one do not find food-shopping fun when I'm here... read more

It's the only choice in the area for supermarket shopping unless you feel like trekking to the Shop Rite on McDonald Avenue (which you'd be better off sometimes). Prices are okay here. If you need to do some moderate shopping for food then come here. If you live in the neighborhood, you know to visit the nearby produce markets for any veggies or fruits cause they're much cheaper most of the time. Do keep note of their sale items though as most of them will expire soon. If the meat's on sale, and ready to expire, pop it in the freezer and you should be fine. read more

This place never disappointed me, so I will leave a good review. They always have kombucha drinks available in an abundance of flavors! It's very hard finding kombucha around my neighborhood and I'm so glad it's within a walking distance! (When it comes close to the expiration date, they have sales). Usually one bottle of JT's kombucha is around 3.75 or 3.95. On sale I bought 2/$7! Also the store itself is pretty large and well kept from what I have seen! read more

Key Food - This place has kombucha teas!! (So many different kinds, even with chia seeds!) love you guys. - Grocery Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I really think this store takes advantage of being one of the only choices nearby. The produce is not the greatest. It is quite frequently on its last leg or completely rotted. They are always out of stock of MANY products, especially the sale items. Since the renovations began, it's gotten worse, and it always smells like cat urine. And, for some stupid reason, they stopped making their bread & bagels on premises, instead bringing in horrible tasting products from Newark, of all places. These new baked goods actually make my family sick to their stomachs. Their only saving grace is the morning cashiers - they are always polite and cheerful, especially Lyn. I may start going to Foodtown or C-town if there are no improvements. read more

Before I went grocery shopping at Key Food, I skimmed through their weekly circular and saw that the San Pellegrino Water is on sale, 2 (25.3 oz) for $3. Also, there is a sales slip taped on the shelf. So the SPWs are clearly on sale 2 for $3. The cashier rang up all my items and I saw that the SPWs showed up as $2.50 per a bottles, I spoke up, and another key food worker went to do a price check. She came back and said, "The 2 for $3 is for the smaller bottles and I think it's all sold out." I then said, "Not according to the circular and the sales sip taped on the shelf." I ended up not buying it and from now on I will be using my money at a different supermarket. Y'all have no integrity. read more

On a scale of 2 out of two, with two being the highest, I gave them TWO STARS for the food. That's tops. Evey thing else is not so good. I been shopping here on and off for about 10 years. I drive. Parking is both a nightmare and you never know how much to feed the meter, because you don't know how long you'll be hung up inside the store... And you will. It's inevitable in this place. OK - so I go here mostly for some very specific items and I only buy them here when they are on sale. Tropicana TWISTER 1/2 gallon drink in a container in the cooler section is .99 .... you're not seeing that any place else for that price. Watch for good sales on good quality butter(s), too. EGGS can some times be a good buy at this place. Deli counter cheeses too can be a great buy. When I'm not shopping for on sale items, I come here every so often for the deli counter and bagels, croissants, etc. from their hot n crusty style bakery. Here's the problem for me with this place - the Deli. If you go there in the morning while they are still setting up, yet the store is open, you'll stand there aimmlessly until you open your mouth. Then they will say to you, 'give me a moment' which turns out to be 3 moments or more! When someone finally does help you, the next problem you'll encounter is that all these behind the counter people simply don't shut up while they are helping you and are chatting away with co workers, almost making you feel you can't tell them your next item, or how you'd like the item they are about to slice, sliced.... If there is more than one customer at the counter, you are dead. Hardly ever will a second person come over to help you and if one does, the person then usually has problems slicing, weighing,pricing, etc. which just further slows down the process while they ask the more experienced co worker. Sometimes the food at the deli counter is very good, other times, mediocre. Once in a while I go there when I see FINLANDIA American Cheese is on sale. Though on sale and in stock together can also be frustrating at this store. Deli meats either prepared in the store or by manufacturer for slicing are all at very good prices, if you watch the sales circular. I'm going to stay away from this store now for a while though because the whole experience there today was not a great one! read more

I prefer this Keyfood compare to the one on 18th Avenue. They have varieties of yogurt. I found Noosa yoghurt for 2 for $3. There is also a bakery inside. The one near me only have a deli section. I would make a trek to the King Highway location for the yogurt alone. read more

This Key Food used to be decent and an ok option if you couldn't get to Shoprite. Since the renovation, the place is a dump. The deli is nasty and quite possibly dangerous. I purchased turkey and roast beef today, when I got home I found the turkey was orange and slimy and the roast beef was tinged green. Even their bread, which used to be decent and baked on premises is now like soggy cardboard. Won't be returning, if I can't get to Shoprite, I'll be going to Foodtown read more

This is a very well run Key Food. The ice cream and dairy selection is great. The deli guys are super cool and friendly. read more

the worst fruits and vegies around,last weekend all potatoes had mold.i told the manager and nothing.they always out of stock on saturday.the sales start friday so why out of stock 2nd day?the meat dept never ready when they open,youd think they get it ready night before.alex the dairy mgr the best thing in that store.juan is also good guy. the 20 percent off during holidays has been discontinued though,thats sucks read more

I have been shopping here for more than 5 years, never no real complaints. Then last night while coming back from being sick in the hospital (and being a black person wearing a hoodie, with my hands in my pockets, because I am recovering from a fever) I was abruptly stopped after purchasing my items and told to empty out my pockets. Apparently one of the workers "saw" me stealing and decided the best way to handle the situation was to stop me like some petty criminal and embarrass me in front of everyone there. Of course I had no items on me because I am not a thief, nor have I ever been a thief. Then to add insult to injury, my roommate, who was with me at the time, went to speak to the manager the following day on my behalf since I am still recovering and was basically shooed away. So apparently they condone this kind unprofessional and overall rude behavior to long time customers. I will no longer give my money to an establishment that labels me automatically guilty based on the color of my skin. I will not be back. read more

This store is a joke. If I could give it less than half a star, I would. The staff have no people skills whatsoever, the cashiers ignore you to talk to their co-worker besties, they don't listen to you when you make simple requests, over-charge you despite the coupons THEY PUT UP. I'm never going back in there again. They get a big huge F - for FUCK-UPS! read more

Holy smokes, IDK if it was because it was pre-NYE, but this place was overwhelmingly packed on a Saturday morning. Actually, I know that's what it was, regardless, it's tight in there and it was so hard to move around. NYC grocery shopping tetris style, the employees were far more friendlier than other reviews would have you believe, but I don't mean to dispute their reviews and experience. They have all you would expect from a Key Food in Brooklyn, but in half the space. read more

I give this Key Food 1 star because frankly, it has been going downhill more and more since I've been going there. I've been going there for 12 years. When you're car-less and don't have any other choice but to go to this Key Food, it really sucks!! Every single day I go there around 5, which is the time a lot of people go since it's after work. You would think they would have more registers open, right? Wrong. I've seen them close registers, when there's lines a mile long. Every single day I go there, there's guys in all the aisles stocking shelves. Ok, the store is open like 15 hours a day. You would think they would do the stocking during the quiet hours. So when you go for an item you want and say excuse me to the stock boy, you get a dirty look and muttering in Spanish. That's another thing. If you need help finding something, maybe 2 of the stock boys speak any kind of English. The rest look at you with that stupid blank stare, because they work there and can't help a customer. TERRIBLE. The "sales" they consider to deals, are terrible. They need to take notes from other stores that have real sales. I've seen many many items on the shelves that are expired. I once saw one of those meat and cheese platters 2 months expired. Unnnnnnreal. Now the end of this review is about the cashiers. A few of them are nice and very helpful. However, there's many that are plain rude and completely unprofessional. I once had to literally wait 2 1/2 minutes for the girl at the register to finish texting. Didn't even acknowledge me until she was done. I was just standing there staring at her, with my groceries on the belt. Not a glance or a word! A lot of them stand there and talk to each other and gossip and curse like crazy. All I have to say is, I am so disgusted by this store and I wish someone would open a store somewhere close. HATE this store so much!!! STEP IT UP AND READ YOUR REVIEWS!! Upset customers here!!! read more

There was a woman who worked there, she had a bandana on and was the cashier in the aisle that i was checking out in. I placed my basket on the moving belt and when it got to me, she was taking things out and said this goes on the floor. I said okay. Then she took the basket and FLIPPED all my groceries out-- not caring about any of the foods' conditions. When i said that that was very unprofessional she said you can feel free to get new ones. She also had the audacity to respond back saying that i can just put everything upright again and it'll be fine. Note: she said this with extreme attitude. At the end i just left everything at the cashier and walked away. She must have hated her job or something happened to her today because she had the nastiest attitude ever. I come here for cheap prices, but based on my experience this evening, i will never ever be shopping at this supermarket past 6:00 pm because I'd never want to see that woman ever again. read more

Key food is your average supermarket that has anything from flowers to groceries. The place makes deliveries which is good on those bad rainy/snowy days. The place has fresh meat which guarantees the good quality you will receive. The place can get crowded at times which is kinda of a disadvantage. This is due to the small idles between different sections. Either than that, I see no other problems. There are a lot of staff to keep things moving quick and smoothly. The staff helps you find products you might be looking for... All for your satisfaction. The prices are pretty much the same as any other place so don't expect big discounts like huge supermarkets such as BJ's. Not a bad place to check out. read more

They offer free delivery. I was in the store today morning, did the shopping and left at 9.07am, but get delivery only at 3pm after a few calls. All food was more than five hours without a refrigerator, and I refused to take meats and milk products, and had to go back to the store for refund and pay for the bus, they didn't even apologize. read more

I come here almost everyday. High points relatively clean, on site bread bakery, good prices, fresh products. Low points absolutely no parking, the deli has only two guys that are hygienic, stop talking when your cuting cold cuts your spitting on my cold cuts, I will leave them in your store. The meat dept is good but the butchers need to use the bone scraper a little more and scrape the bone dust off the cuts on both sides of the meat not just the side I can see while it's in the meat case, that's just laziness. The produce section is mediocre to good. I really wanted to do 4 stars but it didn't make the cut. read more

The best grocery in brooklyn.id rather travel here and walk an hour then go to the supermarkets in my neighborhood. I wish I knew about this key food earlier. It's clean and the staff are friendly . I would spend the whole afternoon walking around they have amazing foods at reasonable prices. Did I forget to say how clean the store is? read more

This location is well stocked with a variety of produce, bevarages, etc. The supermarket is clean and well organized. I was able to find everything I needed and the prices were reasonable. You can even purchase a nice bouquet of flowers for your home from just outside the entrance of the store. My only complaint is that the supermarket employees are not fully aware of the products the store carries. For instance, I asked the person at the customer service counter if the store sold knives and he said it didn't. When I got to the yogurt section guess what I found?... Knives. Other than that one issue, I have no complaints so far. The store employees are polite and helpful. Even the person who didn't know the store sold knives was very nice. I will definitely visit this location again. read more

Price gouges. Meat and cheese is consistently $2 more than any other supermarket. They definitely take advantage of this neighborhood having few options. Will be going to shop rite from now on. read more
