J’s Marketplace

This store is great for its convenience. It’s located right at the Syosset LIRR station, which makes it a very convenient spot to pick up something either on your way to or from work. The store has a very wide selection of organic and healthy specialty items, and the prices are understandably a bit high. My main beef is that I purchased two string cheeses, which were OU-​D certified kosher, and the $ 1.00 price was about right, but the problem was that I purchased this in January 2016 and the expiration date reads NOV 2015! I should have read the date carefully before purchasing. It’s a major turn off for any business to sell food 3 months past its prime. Thankfully, I didn’t get sick after, but this was still very unnerving. I was pleasantly surprised to see them stock some kosher cheeses, from the Schtark brand (cholov yisroel), as well as a diet cheesecake from a cholov yisroel brand (that means a kosher keeper can eat these dairy items in the fullest confidence of their kosher status) that was yummy, and tasted like it was rich, despite only being 95 calories. I also purchased a San Pellegrino pomegranate-​orange drink, as well as a Sabra hummus snack pack with pretzels. I’d definitely come back to spend more time to peruse the grocery offerings. Overall, a nice little market, but they need to be better about expiration dates. Also, the back entrance leading into the LIRR parking lot needs some major sprucing up. It looks like a junkyard.

The place to go if you need exotic groceries and don’t want to schlep all the way to a Fairways. It also has a nice deli with sushi and a regular stock of fresh produce. Especially handy. A small specialty grocery store with enough general stock to suit your needs.

The owner does not understand he is making customers upset with his behavior I can see why he has barely any customers in the store. This is why businesses fail. Customer should be number one priority.

J (owner) is super helpful and if there’s something you would like to have them stock or get for you — he would definitely get it! Great fresh fruit and vegetables! and awesome deli section. What i love the most is the juice and smoothie bar! There isn’t any around the syosset area offering healthy juice options! I am a regular every week stopping at least twice a week for some grocery and my ritual of juice!

While in a completely random location, J’s Marketplace is a pretty cool spot. They have a pretty impressive selection of fruits and veggies for such a tiny store. Add on the fact that you can get Kombucha here (why is it so hard to find) and you knows I love the place. I haven’t tried their PANINI’s yet (I heard a rumor that DD next door said they can’t make ‘sandwiches’), but since everything else in the store is quality, I’m sure they hold some weight. I’ll be back in for sure for a non-​sammie and more veggies soon!
Protip: Park in the back. There are plenty of spots and that seems to be the main entrance anyway.

The freshness of everything at J’s Marketplace is mind boggling! From the produce to the sushi you can count on this place to really be there for you for all of your grocery needs… If I had to describe J’s in one word– DEPENDABLE. Organic, friendly staff, huge variety of food… I cannot rave about this place enough. Try it for yourself!!!

Outstanding God-​send of a store, and great convenience if you can’t make it to Fairway or Whole Foods. Juices, produce, and sushi are all fresh and delicious. Store is beautiful. Staff is helpful and friendly. Prepared foods are varied and excellently made. In a nutshell, everything you could ask for in a local organic market and more. Highest recommendation.

Very good grocery goods and enthusiastic staff, but when I came in, the ventilation was terrible. The grill was going, and you could see the curtain of smoke in the store. I smelled of grease when I got home until I changed my clothes. Not cool, J’s.

Good selection, fresh produce, good looking cold cuts. Veggies/​fruits are pricey and this shop looks and feels like the other fruit market down the road. No parking because of d and d and the train station.

Awesome market in Syosset. This place just opened this month and they have all sorts of goodies. There’s a deli with fresh, made to order sandwiches, and a decent selection of sides, deli meats, handmade burgers and even a fresh juice bar. They have a large selection of produce as well as prepackaged fruit. Made daily salads, sushi, and small dishes like roasted asparagus and rigatoni. They have a good selection of gluten free goodies and snacks as well. Beer, soda, wine, water a little something for everyone. I bought half a dozen white roses the other day and they looked and smelled amazing. The staff is extremely friendly, and always eager to help you with anything you may need. Literally 2 minutes walking distance to the Syosset LIRR station so it’s nice to pop in before your train ride. Let’s hope they keep up the cleanliness and friendliness. This is more convenient for me than whole foods in Hicksville, and will hold me over until the Fresh Market opens in Woodbury. If you’re in the area, definitely check it out.
