    Really high quality hot chocolate and the store sells some nice and healthy groceries. Definitely a bit pricey but you can find good products here. The chocolate croissant looks better than it tastes.

    My friends and I stopped by Mast Market to grab a cup of coffee before our trip to the the Museum of Natural History. The market is spacious and welcoming. It was fun to peruse the shelves of grocery items while waiting for our drinks. There are plenty of snacks, beverages, and household items like soaps or cookbooks. The coffee was good and the space was a nice refuge from the cold weather :)

    A modern coffee shop with a rather interesting layout. The "store" (to buy items) is at the front entrance, while the open-spaced bar to order coffee is placed closer to the rear. Prices are fair and the coffee is good, albeit unspectacular. My one gripe is that while there's an abundance of space, there isn't too many places to sit (1-2 tables, and one window bar area with 4-5 stools).

    Vibe: 3/10 - I know what they're going for, but it didn't feel clean. Service: 2/10 - friendly, but the coffee is self serve so expectations are low here Value: 2/10 - I came here after seeing the coffee was only $2.50, but this was the smallest non-espresso coffee I've ever seen. Coffee: 1/10 - completely self service from a coffee urn and the cashier handed me a carton of oat milk to serve myself as well. The coffee was cold, watery, and acidic. Not even worth the $2.50 Overall: 2/10 (1/5) [To clarify our review system: 10 = we'll never have anything else as good as this in our lives (we use 10 very sparingly!) 9 = extraordinary 8 = great 7 = above average 6 = average Anything below 6 is being critical]

    I love Mast Market and go almost daily. Their organic produce and even books are fantastic, their coffee, lattes and staff is friendly. My favorite staff member however, barista Jamie McDonald, is not there anymore. He brought so much to the place: warmth, great customer care and the BEST LATTES . I have heard from other customers who are regulars as well, how much they miss Jamie! Please bring Jamie back! He makes the difference, if my friends and I frequent Mast.

    I am 71 year old Upper West Sider. I Live around the corner from this place. This is your basic new, stark retail coffee/grocery store staffed by typical "high on life" rural GenZ's who lack any trans generational engagement or connection. A Rikers Island visiting room has more welcoming ambiance than this place. I was on my way home, in the oppressive 94 degree heat when I decided to go to Mast for an iced Chai tea. Before ordering I was told that they couldn't process credit cards, only cash, due to their system being down. The cashier added that I could sit and wait for the system to reset. I asked if I could get my chai because I was hot. He hesitated and agreed. I also explained that I'm a longtime neighbor which really didn't mean anything to him. He didn't engage. Like a wall. I sat down and finished my chai beverage . I got up and headed back to the counter where I told the guy that I was going to an ATM to pay for the chai. At this point let me note that the Upper West side businesses have usually been accommodating and kind to their neighbors when in crisis. Unfortunately, these new generation Utopians are virtueless, and lacking any common sense or discretionary outreach. In their eyes, they are the pillars of social morés because they sell farm food when, in fact, they don't assimilate to our community! Their system was down and it never occurred to any of these wizards to use discretionary thinking and accommodate me, the customer! You remember what a customer is, don't you? Apparently not! Is a $5.44 beverage worth making a disabled senior walk FOUR blocks in oppressive heat? Apparently, $5.44 is their priority! So much for empathy, and community! Real New Yorkers would use discretionary thinking and either comp me the chai (after all, it WAS their system that was broken!) or simply say " don't worry about it. You can pay it the next time you're here" But that would be kind and caring. Both virtues that these farmer zombies lack! So in 94 degree weather, I had to stagger 4 city blocks to an ATM to get the $5.44 for the priceless Chai! This is New York now, friends! We have foreign immigrants and domestic ones. The domestic ones are just as alienated to New Yorkers, and communities, as the foreign ones. When I returned to the store, I paid the $5.44 for the precious Chai! The women behind the counter ignored me. No surprise. Their arrogance was as glowing as the sun outside! This place is the farthest away from "community" than you can imagine! More like "farm girls on parade with New York attitudes!". Morgue freezers have more warmth by far! Ever wonder where the Children of the Corn wound up as adults? ....I know.

    Mast Market is my wife's favorite coffee shop in the city. It's bright, clean, and has very good coffee. The baristas are helpful and supremely patient (I witnessed another customer express profound confusion when her four individually-modified matcha lattes took longer to prepare than my black drip coffee. God bless the baristas for their calm, repeated explanations as to why). The curated decor is cool. It feels a bit like stepping into a influencer's TikTok. But you can actually hang out, sip your flat white, and just vibe. Or peruse the kitchen cookware and buy something to make your own home feel just a little bit cooler. Also, I really appreciate the farm fresh produce for sale. When I visited (October 2022), Mast offered local honeycrisp apples. Fellow apple elitists, rejoice.

    Decent coffee and friendly staff. I ordered a small cold brew ($4 + tax) which was decent. Complimentary almond milk yay! Apparently, the pastries are made fresh at Mount Kisco and delivered daily. Definitely will come back to try the pastries and possibly a gourmet soup (saw that they used grass fed butter).

    I haven't been back since the pandemic, when I lost my mind over Very Fresh Noodles and because we…read morehad to eat outside, I didn't even get to explore much of anything. I visited right after opening, a little after 10 am (many businesses do not open until 11am, like my beloved Seed+Mill). My first impression was that it reminded me of a food hall similar to what I experienced in various cities in Japan. The variety of foods available is impressive and you really can find it all here, from an Italian grocer to Japanese to the various food stands offering everything from BBQ to the best halvah I've ever had. And there's a Pearl River Mart and other places to find gifts and souvenirs. My favorite of this ilk is Muji Market, which has all the Japanese amazing things! Also of note: very clean bathrooms. It reminds me of the bathrooms at Grand Central, a lot of stalls, sinks in the center, only much, much more pleasant. I'll be back as soon as I can. It's silly that I didn't come here when I actually lived in New York.

    Swung by on a Saturday evening at 9pm for about 30 minutes while waiting for a late dinner…read morereservation. The physical location is open to 10pm though most shops and restaurants inside are closed by 8-9pm, only a handful of places like Chote Miya, Miznon, and La Devocione were still open though also wrapping up business for the evening. Wanted to highlight a few more stores here for this review: - Moon Man Foods: a Brooklyn-based company, they have a small stand about a third of the way thru the market (walking east to west), selling southeast Asian kaya jam, which is coconut-based and contain eggs, coconut milk, sugar, starch, and salt. They come in pandan, ube, and Java palm sugar (aka gula melaka) flavors. - Pearl River Mart and Pearl River Mart Foods: back in the day they used to be located in SoHo on Broadway, though rising rents made them relocate, and I'm glad they're still around! They carry all sorts of Asian-inspired decor, serving ware, stationery, and their "Foods" location downstairs is combination of Asian grocery, bubble tea (Milk & Tea), and Korean and Chinese snack/takeout stands (Kimbap Lab and Mao's Bao's). - Muji Market: this is a smaller location that carries a narrower assortment than your average Muji (house wares, basic apparel, accessories, kitchenware, snacks), though they have a full cafe serving coffee and matcha, simple Japanese lunch items like bowls, sandwiches and bento. Cafe prices seem a little higher probably due to the location. - gallery art: there is a small whitewashed hallway gallery of maybe a couple dozen small pieces by local artists, featuring NYC-centric photos, sketches, paintings, multi-media. Found this fun and entertaining!

    Amazing cheesesteak. Best in the city. Rivals the best cheesesteaks in Philly…read more Danny (owner of Philly's Angelos) teaming up with Bradley, the story has been told multiple times this year - but damn does it deserve the recognition. Danny brings back the same identical cheesesteak he perfected at Angelo's. The cooper sharp melts in your mouth, the steak seasoned so well - salty and savory, the onions, the sesame bun. It's incredible. Service was great; even on suboptimal weather days it's busy. Inside the music is loud and no seats available, only a plain narrow shop with counters on the wall. It's hot and humid from the heat of the kitchen, it's compact and simple. The whole shop screams perfection at its core, and I'm listening... you should too.

    Is it worth the hype! Absof*#@ing-lutely! Could it be one of the best sandwiches I've ever…read morehad...yes it's on that list. Is it just a cheesesteak sandwich...maybe BUT...they bake their own bread which pairs perfectly, it's soft, with a perfect chew and the sesame is really toasty. Also from what I can tell, they mix the steak with the cheesesauce before adding to the sandwich, so EVERY bite is cheese-filled. It sounds like a small thing, but it makes every bite amazing! Option of either adding sweet, hot or mixed peppers. Definitely recommend to add one of those as the acidity adds a nice brightness to the sandwich. They open at noon and I went a little after and it was ~10 min wait to order and ~15 min wait for the food, so plan accordingly.

    There are a number of similar names for this small, but mighty, establishment floating around on…read morethe internet: Ninth Avenue International Foods, Ninth Avenue International Market, International Grocery & International Food, Ninth Avenue International Grocery, or just what's written on the sign: International Grocery. Whatever the actual name, it seems that this Mediterranean specialty store has been open since 1947, run first by the Smitsis Family, and then the Karamouzis (including brothers Sotiris, Dinos, and Panayiotis). The Karamouzis moved it a few doors north to its present location in 1983. The neighborhood around the store has evolved a great deal over the years, but inside, old world charm persists. Everywhere you look there are bulk bins, barrels, and sacks brimming with: - Spices: all the staples needed for Mediterranean, Indian and North African cuisines, including za'atar, dried tamarind, cloves, allspice, rock salt, cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, red pepper, black mustard seed, etc... - Dried fruits: pineapple, apricots, raisins, figs, diced orange peel, dates, etc... - Dried nuts: cashews, macadamias, almonds in every form, walnuts, pistachios, etc.. - Grains, beans, lentils, and flours - Coffee I love that International Grocery has stuck with bins and barrels for all these years. Bulk bins were the norm when the store first opened and are so much more environmentally friendly than the ubiquitous single use plastic packaging we see nowadays. Environmentally conscious folks are increasingly coming around to appreciate bulk bins and I wouldn't be surprised if they became the hot "new" trend in coming years. If you stick with something for long enough, it comes back into fashion, right? The wonders don't end with all those glorious bins, however. Far from it. Improbably, all of the following (and more) also neatly fit into a store the size of a suburbanite's two-car garage: - Olives -- about 10-15 kinds by my last count, but I've seen even more varieties at times. I love my crisp, green Castelvetranos and black Kalamatas; the Progeny loves her pimento-stuffed Manzanillas. - Antipasti (mushrooms, artichokes, giardiniera, gigantes plaki) and preserved lemon peel - Feta (Bulgarian, Greek) and other cheeses - Tzatziki and other spreads - A variety of fresh and packaged pastries (baklava, kourabiedes, koulourakia) and halvas - Olive oils, pomegranate molasses, carob molasses - Pita breads and pasta - Rose water - Amardeen (an apricot leather used to make a Syrian drink of the same name) Prices are quite fair and the owners + staff are kind, generous, gentle and gracious. When my 10-year old privately expressed interest in the orange peel to me, one of the owners overheard and offered her some to try. They didn't look at all askance when she delightedly opened various bins to sniff the beautiful aromas within. (I did teach her to waft the smells to her nose by hand a la chemistry lab, instead of sticking her head into each bin.) As much as I detest the areas around Port Authority -- it's one of the dirtiest, smelliest parts of NYC -- I do go out of my way for International Grocery and will for as long as we're both around.

    Absolutely love this place! First found it when looking for some spices I'd never heard of before…read morefor a Palestinian dessert. International Grocery had these and many other spices, grains, nuts, flours, everything you can think of, from multiple cuisines from many cultures around the Mediterranean. They also have fresh halvah, and delicious spanakopita, freshly made! I got into the habit of buying several generous servings-- one for now, several for my freezer. What a great find!
