My boyfriend and I like it, love their selection of organic products. Sure it’s more expensive but I haven’t personally bought anything that was double the price at another store. In fact their organic grass fed beef was significantly less expensive than you’d find elsewhere.

New owners… double the price. Yes, as expected the prices are higher because it is a convenience store, however… you don’t expect to pay Double. I shop here on my way home or if I forgot something it is about 5 blocks closer than Smith’s, however one(1) small can of dogfood was exactly the same price as one(1) large can at the grocery store, which equals out to be double. IMHO that spells… RipOff and the off-brand was only 4 cents less. Realistically, the previous owners did have a reasonable increase, they also had large cans for only about 50 cents higher than Smith’s, new owners have no large cans. For what I paid for 2 small cans of dogfood I could have bought 4 similar cans at Smith’s or 2 large cans. Can’t afford to check out their other prices. I am just going to have to ‘drive on by’ next time, go 5 more blocks and spend 20 cents on gas to get over to Smith’s. Not worth stopping at Island Market, Especially when you leave feeling ripped off, that feeling alone is enough reason not to shop there.

The Island Market is great for what it is – a convenience store. I would guess that the majority of its regular customers live within a three block radius. If I’m cooking dinner and find that I neglected to pick up some requisite ingredient, The Island Market is sure to have it on hand. I was even able to pick up some canned pumpkin for a soup I made this September, way before canned pumpkin is seasonally popular. The Island Market also carries an interesting selection of local produce and baked goods. They brew coffee from Café Ibis and always have an assortment of bread from Crumb Brothers. Of course, with such limited shelf space, groceries at The Island Market are a little more expensive than they might be at larger stores, but if you’re lazy or forgetful like me, you’ll just be thankful for the abbreviated trip.
