Save your valuable time and your hard earned cash! I purchased a Living Social for this place. I thought I would give it a try. I found out that I arrived a few short hours after my Living Social coupon expired and they would not honor it. They were more concerned about saving their $10 then my repeated busines. As I walked around the tiny store, I noticed that most of their items you could buy at Wegmans for considerably less! (Example a dollar more for a 1/2 gallon of milk!) AND the staff at Wegmans is friendly and accomodating. Dont bother to patronize this coop - they wont appreciate it!

The CoOp is a great place. It is a bit like walking into a health food store of the early 70s. They have a nice selection of organic local produce, many wholesome food items as well as ready to eat fresh sandwiches, wraps soup etc. There guacomole is made right there and is excellent. I am not a beer drinker but i see that recently they have an interesting selection of alternative beers to Budweiser etc. The staff is always helpful and the place has a nice atmosphere to it. A great local business and organization to support.

They arent handicap accessible and have made no attempt to become so in the entire time theyve been in operation. I understand the problems with retrofitting a pre-ADA store, but they havent even installed grab bars for the disabled. Instead of them they have a display on their stairs that makes attempting entrance impossible. Its hilarious how fast notions of diversity fall away when its inconvenient. So much for "community".

The best place in the Syracuse area to get bulk foods, the coop also has fantastic produce and a small set of packaged groceries. While they may not have everything for every dish it is easy to eat a full and satisfying menu with the coops offerings. In addition, the coop has recently added a beer cooler that carries a great rotating set of craft beer (and PBR).

Love having a food store in walking distance in a residential neighborhood. I wish the prices werent so high but the products are great quality. If you have never been definitely check it out. Its a cute place and the staff are always friendly. Also the hours are great, 8am to 9pm everyday!

Very friendly staff and for a small place a wide selection. The produce is well set up and looks delicious. The deli offers a wonderful assortment of sandwiches including my favorite Cobras Caprase! Also can I say beer! awesome craft beer selection for the space they have.

Best little coop, just down the road from me. Always great staff and lots of selection for the size of the building. Best beer selection Ive found in town of funky stuff, in the summer awesome produce. Great all around for quick shop and quality!

I have been part of the Co-op since I was born, my parents were part of the founding crew. The food is all organic and it is mostly local and fair-trade. Nowhere else can you buy organic grains and and spices in bulk like you can at the Co-op!

The co-op is the perfect place to buy local and organic goods thats just around the corner! The deli cooler is stocked with great choices for all types of eaters and the co-op deals really make shopping for good, healthy food affordable.

It is not handicapped accessible. The prices are a little high on some things and reasonable on others. They do have a restroom however, it is hard to get in. The staff changes a lot because its a Co op. Overall I like it.

Convenient and with a decent diversity of shelf goods. Produce can be hit or miss, and is usually pricier than Wegmans. However, they can have some organic produce difficult to find elsewhere. Great bulk food section.

This is the only place I shop for my groceries. The staff is so helpful and friendly. The selection of local and organic produce is the best in town and the beer selection is fabulous.

This is your friendly neighborhood grocery store. Non pretentious and convenient. They stock Recess Coffee and Daily Bread and are open all the time. Just go. Its great.

Staff always has a good attitude and are very helpful. This market has a great vibe to it; it feels very homey. Also the ceiling has cool decorations; check it out!

The co-op is one of my favorite places in Syracuse. The friendliest staff and healthy/interesting products that are hard to find anywhere else in town :-)

If Organic is UR thing, and dont mind paying a bit more, then its for U, this place has been around for at least 26 years I have been here!

Great local co-op. Only draw back is the lack of parking. Usually not an issue.
