Urban Market is ideally located on Nostrand Avenue between Prospect Place and St. Marks Avenue in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY. Here you can get fresh produce, dairy products and other items at reasonable prices. Accessible via the B44 local and select buses (on New York and Nostrand Avenues respectively) and opens at 7:00 am. Visible by traffic.
Very expensive.always a higher price at the register than advertised.
Very clean. Great choices of food but every thing is very expensive. I used to shop at this former Associated before the huge renovation. Prices were much more reasonable
The deli sucks, the food looks old and undesirable and when food looks undesirable it belongs in the garbage, not sure if they understand that, the supermarket is good but they need desperately to understand that the DELI needs to be revamped but other than that i enjoy shopping there, the manager is so very helpful and handsome which i definitely appreciated
Like the brightest, the cold cut counter , fruit and veggies better than average smaller version of your big chain trade joe type grocery good selection of gluten free close to home
It is overcrowded and some of the staff is not friendly, when you buy food from here, you have to eat it right now because it doesnt last long time.
Great selection wow
Good variety of food. Excellent fruits and veggies. Fast service.
Store is shaping up after the renovations. The girls at the registers have got to stop with the swiping of the store cards!!!!!!
My favorite neighborhood shop. The people who operate, manage and work her are very dedicated and hardworking. It has always been that way but definitely have a new found appreciation since the pandemic.
Overpriced, moldy fruit, flavorless produce, sad meat. Decent beer selection.I feel bad for the community. We need better quality and cheaper prices.
Super expensive
A little pricey but good quality
My spot over 20+ yrs.💪💯
Great items.. great staff.I love the prepared food when i come in fromba hard day.
Great prices. Always sales. Good customer services.
I went to this key foods to buy food with a key food’s gift card and the card kept showing an error when scanned. I recommend to them to enter the card information manually and the system asked for an expiration date. The card doesn’t have one on it.Someone was “helping” but didn’t know how to solve it. That is ok but the person started to walk away and singled to the cashier to ring up another customer on line but didn’t even tell me anything. That was rude. I was a body and left in limbo. At least let me know if I can follow up. This made me feel like I was not valued as a customer.The person that I was interacting with seemed to be a supervisor or manager. He was rude at the end when saying idk, I can’t do anything for you, call the person that gave you the card, just kept walking away from the conversation. I asked for the customer service number and They couldn’t give me the correct one. I asked for his name and he didn’t want to give it to me. I didn’t feel like a valued customer. The cashier called the person that was “helping me” papa, she was nice and tried her best.All I ask is if the person helping me (not the cashier) could have been more communicative with me, thought of other ideas to try (test the card on another machine, enter the card information manually instead of me recommending it), be more pleasant with their tone/eye contact/body language, guide me to customer service and DONT walk away from the customer.From my perception the staff seems unhappy, not only the person who was “helping” me but also some of the other cashiers, and people stocking the shelves.
Recently renovated. Love their new deli & hot food section. Theres also a larger produce selection. Im still familiarizing myself with the location of some items, but the shopping experience is relaxing. Management & employees are all very helpful. Would recommend.
Long lines. Not cool! COVID 19 shouldnt affect the Shopping Ecperience. Urban Market needs to handle customers with care. Not long lines.
Dont order from this location for delivery. A coworker tried to send me a gift, but I was not able to sign for it because the recipient and purchaser had different names. You wouldnt expect this to be an issue in 2021.
Prices are very convenient here and theres a wide variety of food supplies. Give Key Food a check if youre in the vacinity!
Shoppers beware of prices ringing higher at register than listed in store. Prices higher than other neighborhood stores. This is not be a place I would shop regularly.
Love the new look of my old Key Food Store. Always a pleasure to shop here.
This place is a step up from your basic KeyFoods. This feels like Key Foods answer to Lincoln Market, with its expanded fresh/ organic area with a Deli and prepared food area by the entrance.
Great store very clean and the people who work there are friendly
Not a lot of options overpriced
Has improved alot. The meat station is excellent and kept very well. Some items can be a little pricy
Very friendly staff. Great veg selection. I go out of my way to come here.
Friendly staff, massive selection, reasonable prices, convenient location. Cant ask for more in Brooklyn!
Busy but much improved now that the neighborhood gentrified. No social distancing though
Prices are really high since the big renovations. Supermarket still feels cramped. It more like a glorified corner store. I still prefer Stop n Shop at Atlantic Terminal.
Its AMAZING !! Ive lived in the neighborhood for over 20 yrs raised my son here and KeyFood has NEVER been so diversified. Keep up the great look youre almost a one stop shop with fresh food in your new Deli, you cant go wrong
The store is actually one of the more decent Key Foods that I have been to. Lets be really honest-that isnt saying very much as most Key Foods are pretty bad.Good in the store:-Its cleaner than most Key Foods-Self check out so you dont have to deal with their lazy unfriendly employees.-The meat department looks decent-even though I dont eat meat.-They have your very very basic grocery needs...very...basic.-Prices are decent.Issues with the store:-VERY VERY small aisles especially by the produce and forget about the employees that work there moving out of the way or being even remotely friendly.-The bags for the produce are so ungodly high I can barely reach them. I am 54 and I literally am on my tip toes in order to get a stupid bag to put my produce in.-The produce is disgusting-mushy and rotting-you have to dig for anything acceptable. Going to whole foods is worth not touching the yucky produce.-Rude and inconsiderate employees.I come here for very basic needs and go to Whole Foods for better produce and healthier options.
A little overpriced and often out of stock but still convenient overall. line can get long but usually moves quickly.
Ive lived in my neighborhood for 19 years, where Ive shopped in this store which is finally undergoing a constructive transformation. The store has always been clean for the most part and well stocked. I love the new look of the supermarket and the management has never changed and their doing a great job! They could do better with their meat dept. Theres always a a weird odor coming from there even in the new design...
It was terrible when it was a Keyfood but since it changed hands it a much needed addition to the neighborhood but the prices are too high for my taste for staple items like a tub of Crock margarine for $7.39 REALLY!!
Missing a few of the things I needed but great place overall.
For a densely populated area of the City, this super market shines. Abundant fresh produce, fresh meats and chicken, wide variety of cheeses. Theres no bakery so the bread choices are slim. Maybe the most important thing is that this store functions more like a large grocery store than a neighborhood store. All kinds of cleaning products and household goods are happily afforded along with canned and boxed foods that suit the needs of customers. I bought an excellent pumpernickel bread loaf to make roasted turkey sandwiches and a salad mix to have alongside. Try this place if you want to cook or even if you dont..it wont disappoint.
This location is fairly small. 9 out of 10 the bananas are old. However the aisles and shelves are always full. Best location to just grab a few things and go. Never really saw long lines in here.
I find this place clean, orderly and staffed with friendly people.Im a big fan of their fresh-baked goods section; I seldom buy anything, I just enjoy their display.
Pretty clean for Key Foods store. They have nice deals. The pharmacy section is in the front. If you have a large family or a recurring event you can take advantage of their bulk sales. I just wish they were open later and gave free sample tastings some times.
This Key Food is one of the cleanest and they have good sales & a Very Good variety of Baby food for my 7 month old baby, much more than the Met with baby food on sale as well. The only thing I dont like is you have to buy the 2 for whatever sale in order to get the marked down price. Otherwise this is where I will be getting my babys food :)
Store newly renovated, however as a result things are hard to find, either out of stock or just misplaced. Ive been going to this supermarket for many years. The short Spanish lady in the most department is the sweetest and always willing to help.
Quick service and nice people at the registers
They recently did a lot of upgrades and its nice. Now when they open in the morning all departments should be able to work
Newly renovated and beautiful inside. If key foods can glow up like this...there’s hope for all of us.
Good morning, before the renovations &after there were these huge rats running around inside the supermarket even while you were shopping ....still have them. neighbor after all the renovation,the prices are fare but becareful with the poultry dept it smells funny and I eventually caught food poisoning and there social skills are not very nice 👍
The meats And Other Products Are Very fresh, The lady that works in the meat department is A dedicated worker and very friendly. I love shopping at this store. 💯
Store was clean. Shelves were stocked. No line it was pleasant shopping experience. Use your coupons and shop sales
This store has a wide variety of many options. Ive always been able to find what Im looking for.
Always fully stocked, friendly staff and great prices. I love shopping here whenever Im in Brooklyn.
Fresh produce and vegetables deli section, hot foods, fresh coffee. Friendly service.
Clean and a great selection of produce and food!
Well lit (you may need sunglasses) but has that barren Nobodys home. feel to it. Ive never seen more than 7 people in here at one time since 2003. 😆 Like a scene from a Stephen King movie. Prices are moderate but ticking up; you can tell theyve morphed to cater to the new insurgent population. 😕
You have to consider the area that this place is located in...oh...and the area really sucks. Its convenient for snacks but thats about it. It also smells horrific in there, like a bunch of stray cats took a piss in there and no one cleaned it. Ever. And Ive been in there more than enough times to know that it smells like piss in there every single day.
Very clean , friendly staff excellent produce.
Update: better prices, renovated interior due to gentrification. Much better store! Major updates, I’ll Be going here often! High prices, exterior hasnt been updated in a decade and the store has an odd smell
Terrible lines and they run out of food and not good sales but I do like the options
When Im in the area I always make it my business to come and visit the supermarket it is always beautiful and the staff of very friendly always a welcoming feeling
Familiar feeling with reliable owners, over the years. Good customer service and variety of selections.
Good variety of product. Produce fresh
All of my groceries were reasonably priced and everything was fresh and up to date. The store was clean and the staff was very helpful and pleasant.
Great place. Fully stocked
Good service
You can buy lots of foods from here
Its a good supermarket that has almost everything.
It is a very clean market and you can get everything there, very nice
Its okay.
It seems like it has everything you want and need in a supermarket.👍
Local supermarket, convenient and relatively good value. The facilities are being upgraded making it more pleasant to shop there.
Because this is my neighborhood supermarket, I keep trying to give this place chance. However, Im officially done!I stopped buying meat from this key food years ago, but now I cant even pick up a quick healthy snack!I bought rancid grapes from here and when I got home, noticed that there was a second label placed on top of an older label.... so sad. Theyve renovated the store but the owners are the same disrespectful managers of the past 20 years...
Always have good deals but beware most items on sale are expiring or expired. Dealt with too many situations of bring back expired food. Handful of nice cashiers, theyre wat keeps me comin back
Cool & Upscale In The Ever Growing Neighborhood
All new interior; helpful staff & plenty of gourmet items. Also affordable everyday products.
The supermarket is renovating....It is dusty inside.....I noticed a lot of merchandise with dust all over it...!! I feel bad for the employees who have to endure this havocAll day...Customers of course also.....They are Pricey, as well....but they are well stocked....
So the lines will be long no matter what. And its rare that additional lanes are opened. Lines will eventually wrap into aisles and other items.I had originally come in here as staple items are going to be less expensive but even this seems to be less likely.Sadly, with all that I dont know if this gives me a reason to come in here. Ill probably still check them out- but only when I can spare a lot of time.
Place is like an icebox and way to cold/comfortable to shop. Staff not friendly.
4 minutes from my house 🏡 I just love it 😍 my favorite supermarket to shop key food
So keyfood changed to urban marketSo upscaleishh.. Umm still sales just not on items youd u want to buy any more. So the store it self is nice . umm items inside not bad but can do better...
Some good deals, but the place could be a lot better. I wonder if they will step it up as the neighborhood gentrifies.
Decent selection after the Reno. Could be organized in a more intuitive way.
Its my favorite neighborhood supermarket. Its under going renovation right now but its looking good.
The special offers in here and special because they are never markdown on purchase ! So frustrating...time consuming as you then have to walk the person to the spot show them the sign .
I was amazed with the changes..store looks great..its really worth shopping there
Great sales fresh products.
I love keyfood its my favourite supermarket for over 15yrs. I love the renovations its about time.
Spacious , clean ,great customer service and have all that I need when shopping.
Ramen for some tail photos of pretty fresh and they remodel the whole supermarket.
Very Clear
This place is where I normally get my groceries, small selection but it works. Although minus one star for an odd exchange at the cash register, I brought my own bags so the store doesnt have to use up more plastic bags, but I cant tell if it was that or if its because I look Asian but no one helped me. The bagger and cashier helped the person before me and the person after me, but did not help me. Im Asian not invisible...
Its awesome you could always find what youre looking for
The food is very clean& fresh. The store is lovely too.
Ive been shopping at this Key Food store for over 20 years. Its in my neighborhood and very convient to get to. The store is very clean, always fully stocked and the staff is very helpful and polite. I give a big thumbs up to my neighborhood KeyFood store.👍
The renovation has improved the shopping experience. Customer service still leaves much to be desired.
A strange smell that you could only smell from the meat section a few years ago has now taken over the whole store. A very unpleasant and possibly unhealthy smell accompanies you as you buy old vegtables and dusty cans and bottles.There are other places worth doing your shopping not far from here.
After 60 years Key Food on Norstand Ave, finally did a make over??? But the prices are still too high ??? Food Town & Stop&Shop u can get good buys from them. Catchup Key Food, Ure still behind the Big Boys.
Key Food has really stepped its game up in the past 10 years. Key Food, now with stuff youd actually want to buy. This one has a decent beer selection.
Just because you put lipstick on a pig doesnt make it better. This supermarket is still selling bad meat. Gentrification forced them to beautify the store but the same nonsense is going on. I took back spoiled meat recently and no one cared nor apologized. I stick to the basics with this place and do my real food shopping else where
Love the prices and had everything I needed and more!
Sliding door makes cool haunted house noise
Its still getting renovated but today in paticular, 60% of the store smelled like cat food.
Being renovated. The change is good.
Very convenient and good priced items. Qualified and healthy products are available.
They have some good deals at times. And all GOYA products, which I dont see everywhere.
Its a good place to shop for food.. I recommend, exposed to home very convenient and most of the time the people that are nice.
Most items on sales are gone off the shelves. Very long low moving lines. Chasers are not helpful, does not used the point especially when you asked them to. No one is friendly and helpful. Abit expensive.
Great supermarket best kept secret in the neighborhood
As an island girl I loved that they carried a good selection of Jamaican products
Service was excellent cashier was friendly everything was quick fast and easy.
Overpriced groceries. Cold/non heated store. Unwelcome atmosphere
Great place for grocery shopping in bedstuy. Small but good selection.
Assalamualaikum! The supermarket is clean, and seemingly stocked with items. The checkout process may have been quicker with an additional cashier or two...however, i have no complaints! Assalamualaikum. 😎 ✌️
My local supermarket. Clean and well stocked.
The staff doesnt really know what theyre doing .. sometimes youre able to buy single beers and the next day you can only buy them as six packs.
Good local food mart. Well stocked, good sales.
Sales are decent.. Location is very convenient..
There all the time for most of what I need and the prices are reasonable, sometimes the sales surprise me.
Loves their renovations made, well stock, but not the fact (has none of those sm tropicana juices that R on sale for $1 this wk 4.24.18
Great clean space with friendly staff
Close to my house. Hours are reasonable.
It is close to my home
Pleasant staff and an okay selection; good enough for most food runs since its so close to home.
I only buy milk and bread from there. The few times I brought chicken from there it was spoiled, and their ground beef always look gross. Also I would stay away from the freezer section because the one time I brought Nathan fries from there it had freezer burn.
Quality products reasonably priced
Prices are ok, but be careful and avoid the meats section. Chicken tastes old, pork smells funny and beef usually spoils on your way to the cashier.
Its bigger now & have good sales!
Excellent service plus i got almost all i wanted
Ok for the basics.I have learned the hard and painful way ( it took two seperate instances to learn this) not to buy raw meats from this location. I was also over charged last visit. We bought two avocados but were charged for 9!!! Stupidly I did not look at the receipt until I got home.
Great supermarket, good selection.
Good for a quick visit but might not have everything you need
Changed its inside appearance but still great
Affordable prices with great customer service .
Okay prices and decent selection but the store isnt kept clean or organized.
The selling bread that will expire in 2 weeks basically because they know they can pull the no return policy and also price gouging On their products it just a shame I shop in this store for over 9year plus and now the changing price and making people uncomfortable to shop from them.
Dirty dirty Ive seen Sunday morning at 8:30 am 2times Rats running around wear the fruits are n thy bite the bg.of rice..I told the owner he says O thy come from the street mean while they cleaning up the rat shist..I didnt call health department because I thought the owner would keep his word!!- take care of it but I was wrong.
Great Friendly Cashier and very clean
Prices are higher than other stores in the area. Tomatoes and avocados are not good. I can tell they buy the cheapest ones they can find rather than quality
Great shopping and variety of products
Need to provide more Caribbean products
Fast and clean fresh foods fruits and veggies
Fixxing up the store, starting to look nice.
Good prices. I dont buy their ice cream anymore theres something wrong with their freezer
Good amount of food a good organic section
Its near by. Good location
Great deals great service and great prices
This place is cheaper than Foodtown, but some items are expensive also.
They didnt accept plastic bottle returns...even though theyre still selling water. Doesnt seem fair SMH
Great and inexpensive supermarket.
Itll do for a quick store run
Dirty, you must be very visual when buying fresh produce, everything is going bad. Its as though they purchase second hand food.
Store is clean and shelves are stocked. Weekly ads are available.
Its fine. Limited selection and decent, v but not great, prices.
Lovely staff and wide variety of products.. must visit
My neighborhood store. Great products at affordable rates.
Decent produce ,good discounts and fresh meat .
They have some great sales
Fresh food good sales
Is convenient and inexpensive!.. and very friendly staff
Its close by so its convenient and the cashiers is very plight
New Renovations and great store associates
Well stocked, clean local chain supermarket
In and out is what I do mostly. I. Know what I want to buy and most of the time they have it
I was impressed, a place I would shop at
Great place very helpful manager
Well stocked and reasonably priced.
Really really expensive...esp for the neighborhood. And its very disorganized
Has a good food selection
I left my bike there one day. For 10min. Walked.
They are doing renovations at this store and it has been going on for quite a long time very cold inside store
Price is too high with there meat department going too the butcher iis cheaper
Good variety of products.
I can get groceries on the fly but the prices really arent great. I primarily shop at Trader Joes because of the bad prices.
Healthy place to buy vitamins
.They are remodeling the store. There are no aisle signs yet, so its hard to find what you need. Hopefully things will when its done.
Flatbush cashiers a hot mess
Overall attitude of employees is peaceful
Poor variety and men always cat call me in here. Very cheap though.
Very nice people, good food
Great supermarket, friendly cashiers.
Good sales and friendly staff
Them cashiers are so rude probably because they get paid 10 cents a hour
Great owners, managers, and employees!
Affordable and accessible
Brands are welcome
Impressive drink and beer selection
Good selection and prices for area
Cashier and staff are very courteous
Its really nice now !!
Nice people been there for years but be weary of thier sometimes expired food or drinks

Review №1
2022-03-23Idk what’s going on but I will no longer purchase my salmon (or any other meat) from there. I just purchased today to cook (I clean my meats very well) and it smells terrible, even after seasoning and cooking. This isn’t the first time I’ve purchased meat from here that is seemingly bad or off. It’s such a hit or miss, it’s sad. And the “butcher” area is almost always vacant. Other than that, everything else is fine.

2021-05-27The prices are attractive the places are clean and not too crowded
Review №3
2022-02-08Although prices have gone up, this market has better deals on some items than at food town.
Review №4
2021-08-25Fresh meats, fruits and vegetables. Seems very clean. I visited the deli section on 3 separate occasions, but did not purchase anything because the workers either did not have on face masks or wore them under their noses or under their chins. All of the other workers I saw throughout the store wore masks and had them on properly.

2021-09-04Big improvement from what it use to be but still has a long way to go. They need a better bakery with more fresh baked goods. Artisans breads etc. It would be nice if the meat department did customer cuts by request.
Review №8
2021-07-30Urban Market is always well stocked and well kept. I was able to buy a Chocolate Eclair Pie for only .50 cents and 2 Romaine Lettuce for only $7.00. They always have great deals. The store is never crowded and open up early at 7:00am.
