This store has a good selection and good operating hours. But I am sick of price tags consistently being missing or incorrect for a large number of items in the store. Multiple times I've had items ring up at 2-3x their listed price (strawberries and eggs). In these cases you would think a manager would at least acknowledge there had been a mistake. Staff are nice enough but management definitely should step up because otherwise it kinda seems like this place is trying to rip people off. I would love to shop elsewhere but unfortunately there are no better options nearby.

Price gouging on organic groceries. It is nice that they carry organic items, but they are charging nearly 15 dollars for butter that I can buy for 10 dollars anywhere else. They are also shelving the butter they think people will spend 15 dollars for above a tag that says 7.99 (for a different kind of butter), which is just shady. Try Downtown Natural on Church or Lincoln Market on Lincoln road for a better selection of organic items and honest pricing practices. Or if those or are not convenient have you butter delviered to your door, by any on-line delivery service for 10 dollars instead of 15.

They had most the stuff I was looking for but beware the vegetables aisle I was looking for some lettuce and saw bugs all inside the bags disgusting.

The manager Joelle is absolutely rude. I came in with a stale product, and he tried to give me a song and a dance to why he did not want to give me my money back terrible I stayed calm and nice. He probably felt compelled to give me my money back, because I was being the better person but I shouldn't have to go through the nastiness.

IDEAL RACIST SUPERMARKETI have been shopping at this supermarket for years but today I experienced their true colors as a black person and their racism. I was wearing my backpack that I walk with and a shopping bag separately. I was told by the manager that i should leave my backpack home or leave it at the counter. I refuse to leave my bagpack because thats what i walk with instead of i handbag with all my valuables. The manager told me I DON'T HAVE TO SHOP THERE BECAUSE HE DOES NEED MY MONEY. Yet few minutes later i saw i white person there in the store with a backpack on shopping.The neighborhood is changing, so black people in the community are treated as thiefs and our money no longer matter or is of value to the supermarket that we once shopped at.

If you are black and value your hard earned money, please shop at another supermarket. Pioneer and keyfoods are only2 blocks away. I have never been insulted and discriminated against as i was at Ideal supermarket on Bedford ave. Apparently if you are black you cannot shop in the store with a backpack on or any bag they deemed a potential risk. The manager told me that I need to leave my bag home or leave my backpack at the check counter with my computer and all my valuables since I'm not walking with a small handbag. So the manager told me that I can go because "HE DOESN'T NEED MY MONEY" Yet in that same instance I could pointed out to the manager another shopper who was white in the store with her backpack on shopping. i have been shopping here before it even change to Ideal Supermarket but now since gentrification black customers are treated like thieves and we need to strip down nake to shop in the store because you're black and cannot be trusted. Please take your money elsewhere my fellow neighbors.

Pathetically racist on Bedford ave Brooklyn! They had no clue I spoke Spanish! So they tell the darkest worker they have "TALL SKINNY DARKSKIN GUY" to follow me around the store. When he gets close enough to me I tell him what he is doing in English he laughs then I tell him in Spanish. He quickly walks away. Now if I was younger it probably would of been a incident but because I am older and understand retaliation they will be seeing me in court really soon. I video tape everything. Sad part is once they all understood I spoke Spanish then It became your one of us you know they steal. SMH who is they and why does me speaking Spanish make me one of you? Pathetic!!!!!

Worst experience if your playing Lotto. Cashiers don't care about customer experience. More than once waited while they took care of personal business.

This place always has everything I need at a pretty reasonable price, and a good selection of stuff I wouldn’t think to try unless I was able to get it easily. Only reason this is 4 instead of 5 is I’ve only ever been here with one cashier and the line is mad long.

They charge 25 cents for bags and also won’t let you take your bag into the store as if you are going to steal. Poor management and high prices. Produce is usually old.

My daughter shops here's regularly. It's my first time. Really nice store. Excellent variety. Prices good. The little coffee shop was very nice and attended by 2 nice people. Donuts are excellent!
