Health Markets in Albany, NY

“Huge selection. Like another reviewer said, the bulk bins are spectacular. They are a throwback to old markets where you would buy your beans and grains and other dry goods out of big containers. Something I used to see occasionally as a child. I bought navy beans here, which I actually had a hard time finding in my local supermarkets. They have a bunch of nifty sections if you want to make your own... Well pretty much anything. There's yeast and kombucha and all kinds of raw and fermented stuff. Huge selection in a small store Now the bad part: if you were looking to spend $200 on groceries that you can carry out in one hand, this is certainly your place, you will have no problem doing that, and a huge selection to choose from. It seems like most of the food quality is a cut above, especially for cheeses and specialty items. However, I can't imagine people shopping here for their daily needs We had a lovely cashier named Val, I am sure we could be good friends! She asked me if we were members of the co-op, and when I asked her what was involved with that, it was a $100 yearly fee and a three hour orientation to become a member. I really admire the people who are committed to such things, but it's just a bit much for me. Happy to go there sometimes to get some specialty items though. One more thing: quite nice and interesting plant selection. Surprising in a little market, but they had all sorts of little cactus and succulents and other plans, really nice little stuff.”

“I work down the street and always place my order on the app just before leaving and my smoothie is always ready when I get there, always tastes great and the staff is very nice.Parking: Plenty of parking in the rear.”

“Faithful customer for nearly 20yrs. Mary is amazing! Thoughtful selection at a great value. I come here for all my health needs and advice. Thank you for everything!”

“This place is awesome! From produce to a buffet of food for take out. Yet there is a seating area where you can sit and have your lunch. Everything is organic (mostly) and the staff are all friendly.”

“Excellent experience, as usual. Very easy to order the products. I love that products from priororders are displayed to reorder, everything ship very timely, and arrives well packed and nodamage. Keep up the good work!”
