Come for the great produce at unbeatable prices. Stay for the collectivism and PA questions about “bone broth for cats”.

Sam Gil

Best cult ever!

Sean Brody

One does not simply walk into the food coop.

Get the app, leave your member card at home. #walletminimalism

Worth the monthly work shift . Produce, cheese , bulk grains/nuts, and beer are the best deals. If you can't find something, look up. They take advantage of vertical space

Courtney Klein

The produce selection here is simply amazing. I've never had so much variety that I've felt obligated to try food that looked poisonous. Of course, those fruits were the best.

Produce is ace, everything is seasonal and a lot is local. Cheese and bulk is great. Meat so-so. Lines and crowds painful. All worth the cheap prices and great quality! Oh and the beers are great

Sarah F. Parsons

Don't shop on Fridays or Saturday afternoons!

Sarah F. Parsons

Love the organic strawberries and Honeycrisp Apples here as well as the fresh radishes and golden beets and fresh peas ! Xx

Paul M

Come for the produce and cheese , stay for the pages on the loudspeaker .

Shelly

21% above wholesale prices, amazing produce, fun and connecting community shopping experience unlike any other food store!

Steven Bone

The key to shopping here is understanding that there's never a good place to stand, and you're always in somebody's way.

Charlie Meredith

Almond chocolate croissants ....it’ll change your life.

Leah Kopperman

Best time to shop: Friday evenings after 8:00 pm. The shelves are fully stocked for the weekend and there are very few shoppers.

Sarah F. Parsons

Try the Steve's caramel salt vanilla ice cream .. and the Mary's original glutenfree crackers made out of myriads of seeds

Sarah L????

Wait times exceed @foodcoop’s estimation. 1:40pm Fri 10 April 2h45m originally lined up on President under scaffolding!

Northern Spy Food Co

Produce is fantastic, cheese shelf is meh, people are mostly pleasant, and the prices are stunning. Worth every minute of the monthly shift .

Ryan K

Think it's too crowded here? Come help start the new Greene Hill Food Coop in Clinton Hill ! (Google "Greene Hill " for more info.)

Nawkole Jackson-Fleming

One of my favorite places to be...Quality healthy food choices. Nice diverse community...

Ami Pak

Didn't realize that they DO have most things you need here (veggie peelers, electric toothbrush head refills, razors for ladies, etc)...when in doubt, look up above the aisles.

Susan Pinsky

The almond croissants are amazing!

Leo Kim

Revolutionaries pay cash, though debit is accepted as well .

Benjamin Healy

Work your shift , tolerate the craziness, skip the drama and stock up on the best produce.

Shelly

Legendary coop, amazing prices, community spirit, accessible.

Try the vegan Tamarind Curry . It's soooo amazing with fresh veggies and tofu !

Ravish Momin

Don't listen to the naysayers! It's the best deal in town for local produce , gmo-free foods, veggie products & more!!

Natalia Quintero

Definitely a must-join if you're looking for fresh food and a chance to be a part of the Park Slope community.

Shayla N.

Inventory squad is a good way to find out what's in the store without the crowd.

Maria Vazquez

The produce is always fresh!!!

Cameron Ketcham

So much good fresh produce , cheese , and many other things

Alissa Green

Go to the Coop but make sure to look up -- there are tons of food items above your head! Skip the express line and bring 5-6 non-weighable items to the cashiers as they are always free.

ieatpants

Stay away at 6pm weekdays... you may want to shoot yourself.

E Hershey

I keep forgetting how long the lines are on Saturday afternoons. They are crazy long.

Alix Gerber

Cheap , good food. Community feeling.

Jennifer Henry

Leave your kids in childcare upstairs (to feast on unlimited bagels ) while you shop.

Erica Grigg @EricaGrigg

Almond croissant . They're to die for.

Arabella Hutter

The new Quorn products: cutlets . They're made with a fungi protein which is very healthy.

The lines can be long and crowds frustrating, but the cheap prices and quality make it all worth it.
