Going Bananas is a neighborhood market and hidden gem sandwich shop in the North End. It is a cute, unassuming corner store with a great selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, good produce, and a large selection of fresh foods, cheeses, non-perishables, snacks, and juices. The juices are amazing, made with care, and there is a great selection of drinks and smoothies. A large deli in the back makes subs where meats are cut fresh right in front of you; sandwiches like the bacon, egg, and cheese are loaded up and made really good. The atmosphere is kind and the staff is incredibly friendly, though some interactions can be less talkative. The market also offers a solid array of standard dry goods, baking supplies, and party snacks. As a boutique grocer, prices are a bit higher. Some customers report inconsistency with posted business hours, having found the store closed early. Overall, it is a lovely local shop that is helpful to the neighborhood.
