Supermarkets, Delis, Bodegas, and Retail Food Stores

Offering Delivery

This list below includes all retail food stores within the neighborhood from the New York State Retail Food Store Open Data and a Google Maps Places API search with keyword search terms "bakery, convenience store, deli, food, grocery, supermarket."

For delivery services such as DoorDash, Instacart, FreshDirect, GrubHub, Peapod, Postmates, Shipt, delivery.com, Seamless, Yelp and UberEats, an email address and credit card is required for registration.
The listed apps do not accept SNAP (EBT) payments for delivery but many retailers do in store.
The SNAP Retailer Locator allows anyone to locate nearby SNAP-authorized retailers by entering a street address, city, and state, or zip code. Enter your starting location and select a retailer or map point to get details and directions.
Delivery fees range from around $0.99 to $10, but most fees are waived if you spend over $10 or $15 in the app (for independent grocers, this may be higher)
Many delivery services are flooded and there may be extra long wait times, unavailable products and/or no delivery possible.

The Food Policy Center team is in the process of verifying the status of any retail food store listed without a phone number.
