The Amish Market

I recently moved to the area and was told by neighbors that its a must on the block. The wood fired pizza here is fantastic– and my favorite thing about the Amish Market (which warrants the 4 stars). I highly recommend one of their specials: «Pollo alla Griglia», topped with grilled chicken, caramelized onions & pine nuts. Aside from the pizza, I thought they had a large selection of prepared foods, however, depending on the time of day it can appear better or worse. In the future, I’d like to try something from the deli, as I hear their wraps/​sandwiches are good.

Thanks goodness for this upscale fresh-​food market. I’ve been going there at least three times a week for the last 15 years. They have great, reasonably priced produce, a beautiful bakery, an awesome selection of cheeses (feta from at least 4 countries), bottled fresh-​squeazed OJ, and a well-​stocked olive bar. Some of the basic grocery items — like cereal and soy milk — are more expensive than what you can get around the corner at Health Nuts (also recommended), but overall they do a great job. The checkout lines move fairly quickly and the cashiers have grace under fire.

I’ve been coming here fairly regularly for the last few years. Here are some things that I have noticed: Produce is fresh. Cold-​cuts (turkey specifically) often dried out. Nice selection of olive oils from around the world. Bought rolls the other day and realized they were still frozen when I got home. I’ve been over-​charged many times, so check your receipts. The ladies that run the cash register are pretty miserable. I come here out of convenience, that’s all.

Don’t buy their pre-​prepared chicken breasts in the deli section. Got two, went home, opened the bag and almost fell over because it smelled so bad. I threw them away at once. In addition, they were slimy on the outside. So much for being so «gourmet.»

I moved to NYC 6 months ago and cannot believe it took me this long to find this gem. Forget Gristedes! This is my new food shopping place! Love.

My low review refers to amish market in world trade center area. Not this location. I have never been to this 45^th st location sorry to leave poor review about different location.

Super fresh, healthy and reasonably priced! One of my favorites in the area. Only wish they had a few more fresh veggies on the buffet! Several salad options but not much else.

Great cup of coffee as they steam their milk. It’s almost latte like and at $ 1.75 for a large a bargain for such a great cup of coffee. Blows away Starbucks regular coffee. The pastries are pretty good too.

I am so glad this place is nearby to where I live. There are not great options for grocery shopping east of 3^rd in the low 40s, but even if there were I think The Amish Market would stand out.
They have:
–Very fresh, well priced, seasonal produce and fruit
–Cheap, house brand pickles that are crisp and amazing
–The best Cheese aisle East of Murray’s in GCT
–An awesome yogurt selection with my favorite brand, Liberte
–Cheap, fresh pasta and sauces
–An olive bar with a huge selection
–A nice butcher case
–Great chocolate selection
–A very nice, fresh, and delicious hot/​cold food bar
–Delicious thin crust pizza!
In other words, this is a good spot to stop if you’re buying groceries or want a carry out prepared dinner or lunch. I don’t come here to buy paper towels, or Diet Coke, but they probably have household staples too if you need, though you will probably pay more.
I have only ordered a sandwich once, but it too was well prepared and tasty.
If I could ask for a few more things to make it perfect: bring back the fresh fish counter (Wild Edibles), and sell cheaper coffee and granola bars. But these are nits. This is my local gourmet grocery spot — no need to walk down to Fairway unless I really need a specialty item.
Thanks Amish Market — keep it up!

Ditch the Whole Foods food bar and go to the Amish Market. It is truly amazing and cheap considering the options of dishes you have. You can never get a good quality and just cooked piece of salmon at Whole Foods food bar, at the Amish Market you can. I really felt that I was having a fancy lunch without the exuberant lunch prices you find in midtown east.
Thanks amish market for your quality food and good prices!

Had their fresh tossed salad which is at the front right next to the top floor cashier — not a good location to place a salad bar, but the salad was good. There’s no «chopping» board since most of the ingredients are already chopped, or they’ll just smoosh the e.g., avocado and large chunks of cheese, into the salad for you.
I paid $ 9 for a huge salad with almost everything in it and they give you plenty meat — I got turkey and I don’t get this much turkey added in anywhere else around my office!
Their hot/​cold food buffet stations are great — very clean and the variety is good. I opted for the cold food buffet today, and the avocado kale salad was refreshingly good. I wish they’d go easy on the cilantro additions to most of the cold foods but that’s just me — it tastes like soap to me, so that’s just personal preference.
They also have oven-​bake ready sandwiches ready, and tons of customers during the lunch rush. Will be back for more.

Produce and cheese fresh, prepared food (especially the pizza) very good — fresh ingredients, hot and crispy. Given the dearth of good grocery stores in that part of town, Amish market provides a good service to the locals.
The reason for the average rating is their delivery service. It is awful and slow. It takes 2 – 3 hours, when they give a time window of 45 – 60 minutes. No rain delay, no nothing– just slow. Amish market should just not offer it, if they cannot execute it well — it tarnishes their otherwise good reputation.

It is for sure my work lunch destination of choice.
Not only is it one little block away from my office, which is just convenient, but their hot/​cold buffet is also one of the freshest/​tastiest and most reasonably priced in the area.
My go to:
salmon (always super moist, fresh and seasoned well… grab those omegas, folks!)
kale salad
avocado salad
meat of the day (love the brisket)
I do use the actual grocery store part to grab some office snacks I can keep in the fridge. It’s obviously not trader joe’s cheap, but doable.

This one smörgåsbord of a market. I usually come for the ready to order sandwich or an occasional hot bar or salad selection. The ingredients and the preparation are always spot on. On a rare exception the meats in the hot bar werent quite as fall apart as they could be, but thats an exception. Most of the time its a glutton’s paradise and a gut buster cornucopia of choices for a hot, medium or cold meal. I always tend to walk away with a small fruit salad which would be considered large by many take away resto’s in the area, that are mediocre in comparison. Best part is the ingredients always taste fresh and the staff is eager to help. True Amish or not, i dont care as long as they keep up the value to quality rating which is riding high.

This is another great place to grab a quick bite to eat. While this is really a grocery store they do offer hot food and sandwiches for the lunch going crowd. The Cape Cod sandwich is literally thanksgiving in your mouth. It’s a little bit of a hike from my office, but when I feel like treating myself I make my way on down the Amish market.

One of my favorite places to shop in NY. The food is generally always fresh, they have great selections of sushi, desserts, a hot buffet, a deli counter; they have everything!
The people are really nice, so helpful and nice. I just really love every experience I’ve ever had here. I’m happy to be back in NY, this is one place I really missed.
Don’t forget to try their delicious cheeses, and their decadent breads and pastries or their huge selection of chocolate!

I am surprised I haven’t written a review of Amish Market yet! When I lived in NYC, I stumbled across this really nice market in Tribeca. It feels «neighborhoody», like a Bodega, but is large enough to have a pretty decent selection of grocery choices. They have a pretty awesome hot food area… and their sandwiches are better than most. They have a small bakery as well with some tasty treats waiting for you in the display case. If you are looking for an alternative place to pick up something for dinner… you should stop in.

A wonderful lunch place in midtown! All the food is super fresh, and I am a huge fan of the omega sandwich, with baked salmon, sprouts, lemon dressing and avocado– thanks to a recommendation from my coworker Michael J! I also love their hommuses which are 2.99 each– the best are the dill, lemon, and baba ghanoughe. They have an absurd amount of flavors of hommus so you are guaranteed to find something interesting. Their pizzas are also great– the one with eggplant is my fave and it only costs 9 $ and will last me two meals! WOAH. I am only taking off 1* because the lunch buffet is absurdly expensive, especially compared to the breakfast buffet. Not sure why they would make one so much more than the other…

Go-​to midtown lunch destination.
One of the best hot bars I’ve had in the area. They have a great kale salad out everyday with avocado and onions. Arrive early for this or you’ll find everyone’s taken the avocado chunks out and left only kale.
Solid soups, great sandwiches, awesome pizzas.
Every time someone in the office has a birthday we pick up one of their cakes. Carrot, chocolate, mousse cake just to name a few. All priced around $ 35.
I’m a big snacker for lunch, so come here at the beginning of the week and pick up some supplies. They have a great cheese aisle, an expansive hummus selection (all for $ 3 too!.. try the olive hummus ohmygod) and nyc made PICKLES. you can get a whole jar of pickles for like 3 $. crazy talk, right? Also, try the «Baked in Brooklyn» made pita chips they have, currently harboring an «everything thin crisp» addiction.

This place is right next door where I work. So I came here based on convenience. It’s a little small grocery/​deli with hot and cold food. Unfortunately, during this day, I couldn’t decide what I was craving for, so it took me awhile to decide. The hot food looked pretty good, but nothing I really wanted. (oh, there’s also a salad bar). Everything looked pretty fresh. There’s also the deli counter where you can get some sandwiches.
After going in circles for a good 3 minutes, I decided to get some pesto chicken and some fresh fruit. The pesto chicken with sun dried tomatoes was okay. A bit bland in my opinion. But I think I should’ve eaten it with something else. I felt like there was an abundance of sun dried tomatoes as well. They were also sweeter than expected. The fruit was nice and juicy.
My problem about this was that it was expensive. Yes, I know, I’m in midtown manhattan and everything is expensive. But what i got was not worth the price I paid.
I think in this area, there are limited options, so it’s not a bad choice for a lunch. I haven’t tried any of the sandwiches, so i can’t comment on those.

Uno de mis Delis favoritos, por su variedad de productos y la calidad y el sabor de la comida.
The Amish Market no solo convence por su oferta, sino también por la presentación. La decoración de la tienda es mucho más acogedora que en otros Delis, todo muy cuidado… te entra hambre sólo por ver las cosas ricas en las estanterías y cestas.
Es una tienda de alimentación (fruta y verdura así como pescado y carne fresa, conservas, etc.), panadería, pizzería (para llevar) y un típico Deli con sandwiches deliciosos, café, mostradores para elegir y mezclar tu ensalada a tu gusto, platos calientes… todo buenísimo.
Si hubiera un poco más de sitio para sentarse y comer allí daría 5 estrellas.
Aún así, es un sitio ideal para llevarse alguna cosita, pequeña o grande, para comer a cualquier hora del día.

Auf der Suche nach einem Supermarkt sind wir auf den Amish Markt gestoßen.
Zum einen kann man da alles mögliche kaufen, aber es ist vieles Bio oder qualitativ hochwertig oder es gibt auch ausgefallene Dinge, für Vegetarieer, Veganer, Alllergiker und allgemein ist es etwas teurer. Aber schöner Laden, freundliches Personal.
Außerdem gibt es morgens eine Frühstücksbuffet, und mittage /​Abends ein Salatbuffet und auch etwas warmes, Also man holt sich ein Plastikbehälter, füllt ihn und bezahlt dann ca. 7,50 Dollar per lb, Essen kann man dort, sofern man einen SItzplatz bekommt oder mit nach Hause nehmen.
Die Salatbar ist erstklassig, super lecker, nicht versalzen, täglich etwas anderes und gesund!
Es ist nicht verwunderlich, dass der Amish Market immer voll war!
Im oberen Bereich gibt es noch Pizza, die auf BEstellung frisch zubereitet wurde, nicht so mein Geschmack, aber auch gute Qualität.
FAZIT:
Ausgefallen, gesund, nicht bilig
