I recently visited Hoboken for the first time (no, really) and it was a rather hot day and I needed…read moreto hydrate and thankfully I ran across Natural and Plus. The outside looked like an old fashioned deli/grocery with tables/stands outside for fruit and flowers. However, once you step inside you see a deli that looks like one of the nicer ones you'd come across in Manhattan's West Village. Based on the other reviews I've read below, it seems like this space has been renovated recently. The buffet table I've seen mentioned is no longer there. The shelves look new(ish) and the items on shelves are very organized. On top of that, the selection is impressive. There was an entire section of hot sauces including Siracha. On another shelf were some fancy low sugar bags of granola (that cost $13.99 *each*). It is a bit cramped when you navigate the aisles, but it I didn't knock anything over by accident so it's not bad. I snagged a bottle of water and was thrilled when the cashier told me it was only $1. I'm so used to going to Target or Shop Rite and having to pay $2 something for a water. It was cool to see even if Natural and Plus sells fancier stuff, not all their prices are high. I'd happily go back to Natural and Plus to grab a drink (and maybe some fresh cut fruit). Check it out if you're in the area!

My wife wanted mangos so off I went. This place was near the nail salon we were patrons of so I took the short work across the square.

A few steps from journal square, is my favorite grocery store within a 2 mile radius (yes, they just built a target- but still a lot of the prices are still in the same range anyway!). I'm always greeted by the friendly tall guy- who is either playing security or just running the floor to make sure things go smoothly- and making his staff laugh. The cashiers are always very patient and friendly. The produce section prices are what I would compare to Walmart prices essentially- which is great for being so local to a big transportation hub, while still being a smaller business. I usually get my sparking water here (bottles, specially Saratoga springs, because they don't have it at a ridiculous price!). They have a lot of Mediterranean import products, so if you're an olive lover stop in. 5/5 I'm here 1-3x a week

Sub-Hub is a relatively new mini-supermarket Journal Square. Although it is a bit on the small…read moreside, with just 4 long aisles, they have a sufficient variety of produce, meats and fish, and even a frozen foods section. So far, I have found most of their produce to be fresh and well-priced. Otherwise, ost of their groceries are a bit pricey and on par with Shop rite in many cases. However, they often have very good sales - you can find them list on a digital display in front or by the price tags inside. Note that the best sale items typically sell out fast and they won't restock it. Overall, sub-hub is one of the better grocers in the area, especially if you prefer a modern and clean market to shop.

Haas Avocados are usually $1 each. Great fruit being sold for far cheaper prices than supermarkets. Things are on sale daily and everything is great!! They also have a location on West Side Avenue (a few blocks south of Communipaw Ave.) that is managed by the same group. If you live in J-Square or in the West Side neighborhood then check them out!!

I'm gonna back what DJH says about this place…read more They have very cheap fresh farm goods for an unbeatable price. Apples, oranges, bananas, bok choy, scallions, mushrooms, avocados, rolls of bread, etc. Mira gets surplus produce that is in season. You get really good prices but this is not the type of roughage you keep in the house for more than a few days. When you buy from Mira, be prepared to consume within 1-2 days. On a similar note, be sure to inspect the produce for mold. Again they get produce at their peak and they try very hard to keep their stock fresh, but things happen. So check the produce for any signs of spoilage. (In the winter, I get frustrated with the lack of fresh produce. I got to Shoprite in this season. But spring and fall are great seasons to shop at Mira!). All in all great local place for produce!

I love this local, family owned produce store in the Central Ave. Shopping area of the Heights…read moreneighborhood. It is small but has everything you need such as fruits, vegetables, some bread like Portuguese rolls, canned goods, eggs, milk, even cheeses and packaged cured meats like sausages and hams. No fresh meat or seafood but I go to Pampita Meat Shop (great Argentine and Americans cuts) and the seafood shop across the street for those. The price is great - I would buy 2-3 bags full of fresh groceries to feed two people for the entire week and more and the total still usually comes out under $50. When I was living on the other side of JSQ, I used to frequent another similar produce shop called "Mira Fruit & Farm" on JFK Blvd (I wonder if it's owned by the same person?) We are talking 4 grapefruits for $1, a package of blueberries for $1, a bag of 3 bell peppers for $1, 6 limes for $1 price range. Some things are pricier here, like bananas, which usually cost 69 cents or even 79 cents per pound when I can get it for 49 cents per pound at Shop Rite in downtown. Regardless, I like supporting small mom and pop businesses so I will continue to be a regular here! I like to juice at home often so this is a great place to source celery, cucumber, carrots, apples, ginger, lemons, beets at very affordable prices since I go through them quickly in large quantity. I have no doubt the owner of Young's Farm is Korean or at least Asian because they have a limited but good selection of Asian goods too like Korean Shin Ramyun and Vietnamese vermicelli noodles, fish sauce, sriracha, and jarred kimchi in the refrigerated section, etc. My tip would be to go there early on Saturday (before 9 am) because by the afternoon on Sat and Sun, all the freshest pickings will be gone. Also, while the prices are super cheap, look and pick carefully to make sure your box of berries doesn't have mold growing in it and try to pick the freshest one. Many of the packaged goods like berries, cherries, tomatoes that are outside the shop on the stall as "specials" are already in advanced ripe stage so eat within 2-3 days max. They are perfectly find to eat, just shorter shelf life. My guess is the store operates in a very similar way as some of these new delivery companies like Imperfect Foods and Misfits Markets do in terms of sourcing their products, by taking less "perfect" produce directly from farms and producers and resell at the store at cheaper costs. I always have good fun poking around what's available here at least every other weekend.

Like most places on Central Avenue it has a Latin flair…read more Young's Farm is known for their fruits and vegetables in Latin cooking such as plantains, mangos, guavas, yucca and I even saw Aloe. My wife had to explain to me that Aloe is also used in cooking. I have only known it for treating burns. They also have a lot of Goya products. The woman that waited on me today was very helpful. I had gone in looking for strawberries and blueberries and was unable to find them. She told me they would be back in stock in the next couple of weeks. It is a nice little fruit and vegetable shop for your last minute items if you are on the Avenue. They have a good selection and their prices are reasonable. As for parking, try the Dunkin Donuts parking lot right around the corner or you can go behind Burger King. They have a large parking lot though you do have to feed the meter.

I also went to get pastries from Choc O Pain French bakery's booth and tried their chocopain (of course), financier and tropical cake. Surprise to see they had gluten free and vegan options, not that I have restrictions but great to know. The pastries were also very flavorful in that they taste exactly how you'd expect them to!
