Carrot CreativeJanuary 28, 2013Staff review: “Pricey, but the Caprese sandwich on ciabatta is so good and very filling. The salad bar is pretty good and if you are smart with what add-ons you choose - can be moderately priced.“
David SnyderMay 30, 2013The place has a bit of an identity crisis. People go here for the solid (if pricey) sandwiches, salad and smoothie bar, yet 75% of the real estate is taken up with obscure snacks and kitchen wares.
ShahSeptember 2, 2014Great selection of things you can't find anywhere else (or afford). Their made-to-order sandwiches are amazing and the size of your head.
If the Porchetta sandwich is available - do yourself a favor and get it! 😋Also, decent salad bar and good soups 2 daily choices). Sample the soups!- The sandwiches are a little pricy.. but that's what you get in dumbo. The pork shoulder sandwich comes with an awesome tasting sauce. The bread is really tasty too.
Maria Luiza LaraSeptember 28, 2013You can make your own salad: fresh vegetables, very nice extras and delicious sauces! Healthy and tasty option in the area!
Highly recommend the rotisserie chicken sandwich! Great selection at the salad bar too.
Quincy KosterAugust 6, 2014The Chelsea sandwich is out of this world--pickled onions add crunch and tang, and the homemade ciabatta is to die for!
The most underrated sandwich place in the city. Te rotisserie chicken sandwich is out of this world. Order it. Do it.
Diana EvangelistaDecember 5, 2013A lot of people talk about sandwiches but the juices are very good too. The Manhattan street is a perfect mix of sweet and refreshing. Truly addictive!
Brooklyn UnitedMarch 6, 2012Foragers' [fancy] sandwiches are the focus of our Fancy Fridays. Top choices include the capresse (avocado, mozzarella, tomato), sopressata & fresh mozzarella, and the serano ham w/ manchego cheese.
Rotisserie chicken sandwich is absolutely killer. Tender and juicy chicken, lettuce, thinly sliced red onion and a delicious garlic aioli on your bread of choice.
Housemade buttermilk biscuits are my favorite morning treat and set this place apart from the nearby breakfast to go options
Untapped CitiesJuly 18, 2018It’s quickly expanded with a new kiosk at New York City’s newest food hall, Dekalb Market Hall. There, you can also find an old-fashioned, full-service butcher. Read more
Make an honest attempt not to buy any of the expensive chocolate on the table by the check-out line. You won't succeed, but it's worth making an honest attempt.- Cardwell BeachApril 3, 2015The rotisserie chicken sandwich is a must-have....or any of their sandwiches, really.
Anthony PopeoMarch 7, 2017Great packaged and prepared food, juice/coffee bar, and reading material. Nice place to get coffee and read for a little bit.
Rotisserie chicken sandwich is good. Clientele consists exclusively of upwardly mobile white liberals who feel something must be done about global warming.
The rotisserie chicken is the best deal there. Quarter usually comes out to around $3 tops
Hot Bread KitchenJanuary 17, 2012Foragers is not only a specialty grocer. With options for sushi, coffee, juice and salad bar, it also has one of the best lunch selections around.
Figure you have about a 50/50 shot of getting the sandwich you want if you go in with a plan - they're frequently sold out of much of the menu.- My favorite is the Serrano ham, on a baguette. Quince paste and quality manchego cheese make for a good times mouth party.
- Alyssa BereznakMay 23, 2015can easily blow an entire paycheck here. delicious food in well-designed packaging. a hipster's dream.
Sven LenaertsNovember 7, 2015Solid sandwiches, great bread, everything you expect from a deli and more. Can't go wrong.
Jason GelmanDecember 3, 2012Quietly, the deli counter makes some of the best sandwiches in NYC. Must have every time I visit Dumbo.
ShadiApril 28, 2013Supermarket which delivers ethical food by shortening the distance between farm and fork. Try the York street juice and fire cider!
NearSay NYCJuly 25, 2011Hydrate with a bottle of Deluxe Honeydrop.A Brooklyn-based beverage company offering up delicious flavored waters, sweetened with 100% natural organic honey.- Absolutely love the Serrano Ham sandwich ( w/ quince paste, manchego, and watercress on ciabatta). Everything is so fresh and really delicious.
Lunchtime 12:30-2ish has the longest lines here. Everything is slow then. Good food but might want to wait til it's a bit quieter
Mick ManagementOctober 17, 2011On the expensive side, but the freshest salad bar and amazing soups and smoothies! Plus get a delicious sandwich made to order!
If you're going for lunch, go early or ate. Crazy around 12:30.
Charley ToddDecember 8, 2015I love this place. SO MUCH. Rotisserie Chicken Baguette. It changes you.
Overpriced grocery store. Great sandwiches though. Get the rotisserie chicken sandwich
Their Juices are really good, prices are also not bad as well.
- Do yourselves a favor and get the Porchetta sandwich with the garlic aoli sauce bing!
All about the apple and brie with watercress. Ask for whole wheat -- the nuttiness complements the apple and cheese.
Lunch time salad bar is the way to make a healthy salad without the hefty price.
anzu KanetaDecember 26, 2012Better than Whole Foods, if you are self catering grab a few dinner ingredients from here... Not cheap thou.
if you're tired of cold lunch, try the grass-fed meatball sandwich on ciabatta. not cheap, but you can eat the other half later or share with a friend.
Stop by the juice bar for a crystal clear cleanser (with ginger) and beat the post lunch slump.
Get the Caprese on ciabatta and ask for proscuttio. Best extra dollar you can spend.- "salad" bar almost perpetually out of greens, but if you're into large quantities of undressed spinach, you're in luck!
- A good 50% of the times I come in, I just see the giant lines and turn right around.
