Grocery Shopping “in-town” 1. May of 2018 witnessed the opening of Philly’s first large-scale all-kosher supermarket House of Kosher—no more checking labels over here, folks; it’s truly liberating! Equally awesome is placating your active children with the convenient drink-as-you-shop slushies for around a buck each. And did I mention freshly-made pizza and sushi-to-go? You can easily find everything you need — and more — to take care of the household during the week — and for Shabbos, be sure to check out the oodles of take-out options! (Mommies, be warned: the candy section is right at the entrance, repeat: right at the entrance. :) 9806 Bustleton Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19115 215-677-8100 www.houseofkosher.com 2. ShopRite on the Boulevard (McMenamin ShopRite): ShopRite has everything you need. Rotisserie chickens, deli counter, side-dishes, pareve breads, pita, rolls, and desserts for Shabbos. ShopRite also carries pre-checked romaine lettuce, arugula, spinach, broccoli, and fresh strawberries in the produce section (Joe, the manager, goes out of his way to listen to the kosher consumer!) . Helpful hint: if you’re really in a pinch for a birthday present ShopRite carries a ton of “extras” outside of simple groceries. For instance, there are a ton of (strategically placed, I’m sure) toys everywhere you turn — helpful for picking up last-minute presents, but not so helpful for the budget! ShopRite has even been known to carry bed-sheets. So now, with the newly added wine and beer section, one can honestly say that ShopRite now carries virtually everything you might need! 11000 Roosevelt Blvd Philadelphia, PA 19116 215-673-1200 3. Giant Food in Rockledge: Giant Food has a smaller kosher section than ShopRite, but it’s definitely worth a stop in. They also have a deli-counter, rotisserie chickens, challah, and yummy baked goods (both prepackaged from NY bakeries and some yummy Giant-brand pareve treats. Be sure to try the snicker-doodles.) You can also order pareve decorated cakes and cupcakes. Bonus: You can avoid that pesky tax on sugary drinks – grape juice does fall into this category!— because this Giant is located outside the City of Philadelphia. So the saavy kosher consumer in you might want to stock up here. Giant Food on Grant Avenue also has a refrigerated and frozen kosher section. 737 Huntingdon Pike, Huntingdon Valley, PA 215-379-6900 2550 Grant Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19114 215-464-8280 4. Bells Market: A Russian-owned grocery store in Bustleton Corner. The produce there is often cheaper and there is a really small kosher section located in the produce section. This can be super helpful if you run out of cheese and don’t want to shlep to Giant or ShopRite. If you’re into olives and other related condiments, you can find a plethora of such items at Bells. (Bells is also close to a Dollar Tree (where I usually stock up on hand-soap and tissues). 8330 Bustleton Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19152 215-342-6016 5. Net Cost: Similar in style to Bells Market you can also find great deals on produce, as well as many interesting and exotic brands of foods. 2417 Welsh Rd, Philadelphia, PA 19114 (closest location) 215-795-3773 6. Trader Joes: Easily the most fun store around. Jolly employees and unique, kosher food options! Plus, you can’t help picking out a beautiful bouquet of flowers for Shabbos (or any other day of the week for that matter). 933 Old York Rd, Jenkintown, PA 19046 215-885-5240 7. You can always count on Aldi to brighten your day (and your shopping cart!) with some unique kosher finds—from an unexpectedly found pareve babka to an extensive gluten-free dessert section, it’s definitely worth a stop in! 7900 Roosevelt Blvd, Phila, PA 19152 855-955-2534 The Frum Ladies Guide to Northeast Philadelphia 3
