Grocery Stores in Brewster, NY

“Nice well stocked Latin market. Great selection of meats and I'm sure you can find most authentic ingredients here. Sorry I haven't checked it out sooner!”

“I love this place, it is well organized and clean, they make sure that their products have a good expiration date, the truth is that I always find everything I need and the service they provide is excellent, they are very friendly and attentive.”

“An update to my last review after bringing home an incredible haul of holiday goodies. The quality of the roast beef from the deli department was worth the price. And the price was high. The man who was stocking the dairy/butter section needed a mention because he went back and retrieved another container of Kerry Gold when he saw that I was disappointed that there were none left. (shout out to him). I'm removing the video of the beer expert upon his request. I had his permission to post it but he's become camera shy so I will be obliging here. A few more days before Christmas and there's still time to grab some of those special brews for the beer drinker in your life.remember, if you lose your BEERings- turn left for the biggest wall of imported and micro brewery offerings for miles.”

“(Translated by Google) It went from store to little by little to be a place of good appetizers, fried chicken, toast of all kinds and beautiful and rich fruit and lemon hail.”

“You wouldn't expect it from a quick look at the consumer entrance, but Ace Endico is a foodie's paradise. It looks a bit rough, but my oh my, it's oh so tasty.... Ace prepares and packages and distributes over 15,000 food products to restaurants, country clubs, grocery stores, and neighborhood bodegas, stretching from Maine to Pennsylvania. They own many of the companies in their supply chain, produce many of the products on their shelves, and train chefs to incorporate their foods in creating new recopies. The retail outlet is located in one corner of its own massive food center in Brewster. They're currently expanding their footprint and seem almost ready to move into a far larger retail space. Depending on whom I ask, the new space will be up and running "in a month at most", "maybe two or three", or "pretty soon".... If you're mostly indifferent to food, this is not your store and odds are high you'll hate it. But if cooking and eating make your heart & soul sing, you are about to meet your newest best friend. The current entrance is humble at best. Tucked into a corner of their vast lot, it passes through industrial racks of soda cases, big boxes of heavy-duty cleaners, and lines of paper towels. Not auspicious, but trust me, keep walking. The good stuff is ahead. Behind its checkout lanes are shelves and racks jammed to the rafters with pastas, rows of sauces, lines of syrups, stacks of spices and more than eyes can possibly grasp in a single visit. There are no signs, no markings, no clue to move right (toward industrial-sized bags of pastas) or left (to coffee and cookies for peckish customers). I usually start with a bit of coffee and a cookie. Or maybe two if Alicia's not looking. There's a section of fresh fruit and veggies, most (but not all) priced well below retail. On a recent visit, large plump avocados were $1.25 and heirloom tomatoes sold for $3.25/pound, about half what I pay at my local store. I've never gotten better-priced, fresher, firmer mushrooms anywhere. Except my own back yard. There are rows of imported olive oils and a wide variety of coffees from Italy. I don't know these brands (yet), but if they're most everything here, I expect it'll be a wonderful learning experience. Fresh fish is to the left, arrayed on crushed ice, changing with the daily catch. A small shelf holds about a dozen imported jars (not cans) of tuna that I'll save for my next time. This trip I got a piece of wild-caught Atlantic salmon and a dozen jumbo shrimp. The mussels were tempting but have been so over-harvested they're far too small for the bother. The fish monger behind the counter seemed to know seafood well and was wonderfully direct about what was good that day, what was not, and what's likely due tomorrow. Just past the seafood are racks of cakes and imported cookies in what seemed to be almost endless variations. Among them were (at least) two dozen varieties of Loacker Quadratini (bite-sized, layered wafers) selling for about a third the price on Amazon. (Yes, they are amazing.) Beyond that, jammed into another corner, are pots and pans and baking sheets, pizza peels, kitchen knives, storage bins, and mountains of take-out containers. Ahead is a wide array of consumer-size salamis, prosciutto, soppressata, mortadella, and pancetta, many uncured and unprocessed. And gigantic loaves suited for commercial delis or once-a-hundred-year family reunions. Don't be surprised if standing next to folks from your local bodega buying the same foods you are, at the same price you're about to pay. Here. Definitely not there... There is one long aisle of frozen goods stacked with massive bags of prepared frozen chicken and fish and fries and dumplings of all sorts. Plus many in consumer-size (though still pretty large) bags. Across the narrow aisle, more floor to ceiling freezers are jammed with an array of restaurant-quality deserts in both feed-an-army size and just-for-me cups. My single-serve chocolate ”

“What a joy to find a great food spot along Main street in Brewster. More than just a small restaurant, it's sited between a namesake Mini-Mart to the east and the bakery/cafe on its west flank. This trip I was only in the restaurant but it was more than good enough to warrant repeat visits.... The menu is simple but wonderfully extensive. So many choices and based on our simple lunch, my oh my, we will be back for more. There are Mexican dasayuno platos (breakfast dishes), a slew of tasty looking appetizers, the usual tacos and tamales and tortas, plus full meals that I'll save for dinner when we're back. Today we had tacos. And OH BOY I didn't want to stop. Not only plentiful, but surprisingly tasty, backed up with two or three freshly made salsas, a bit of appropriate heat, but nothing too biting for the feint of heart. Our three-taco lunch had one each of Carne Asada, Al Pastor, and Chorizo. There were at least a half-dozen other options, presumably at least as good as ours. The tacos came with unusually flavorful rice and perfectly seasoned beans. Today was only lunch, no more. Definitely our bad. But we'll make up for that; this is going to be one of our essential foodie stops in the area.”

“At this acme market, I found myself having a surreal journey of shopping carts, shelves playing hide-and-seek, and talking produce. I might have taken something but my acmelicious heart was ready for a laugh-out-loud shopping experience like no other!”
