My wife and I love shopping at Lemon Street, it's our favorite small business grocery store here in Lancaster to support. Although the store has a relatively small footprint, there are a lot of selections (even for those who eat organic and/or have food allergies). Our car broke down in front of Lemon Street yesterday, and all of the workers we interacted with were more than kind and understanding. The manager even brought out jumper cables to help us get our car started. I imagine for being a small business with limited parking, and when our car didn't start, it was probably a bummer for one of the few parking spaces to be taken up. It took hours for a mechanic to get to us. But we were never rushed - one of the workers even after their work shift stopped by to check on us and wish us well. It was encouraging to have such a positive experience from a local business we love so much here in Lancaster.

What an incredible hidden gem for anyone seeking healthy, gluten-free and vegan foods. Don't be deceived by the compact storefront with 3 parking spaces in front-- this place has two floors and everything you could wish for. Fresh produce, frozen foods, herbs, skincare, tea, specialty bakery items and grab a latte to go! Check out this wonderful market!

First time in this place and I love it. Great selection of organic food, grains, bread, fresh fruits and vegetables. The staff is friendly and attentive. Definitely I will come back in a future trips to Lancaster.

My go-to market for a large variety of fresh and local produce and local dairy and non-dairy. If cooking and eating organic and healthy, this is your grocery! Also available, in addition to pantry staples, are foods cooked in their kitchen and gluten-free baked goods. Always helpful and courteous staff! Their order-picking with curbside pickup or delivery has been faultless with great communication. Making COV-19 stay-at-home less stressful! Love this market!

Support small business. Plain and simple - small businesses are the heart and soul of any town. I enjoy coming here to get the items that I can't find elsewhere, or just some organic produce. Yes, you will pay for quality. They don't get the deep discounts that the huge mega chain grocery stores get - but they do pass it forward when they can. Some perks - fill your own container cleaning products, fantastic quick grab foods in the cooler, and a large amount of vegan selections. Only downfall - parking can be tricky and I've had some strange interactions with employees that made me uncomfortable. I'll still visit when I can. Thank you Lemon Street Market for existing.

Excellent food. Very pricey though but worth it. Staff is helpful. Awesome culture. Somewhat of a tribe-like following. It's easy to spend $100 in a hand basket here.

I'm kinda amazed by the bad reviews for this market. The food is great, as is the selection - I grant you, the prices are a bit steep, but you're buying organic lemons grown by Norwegians and kept cool by an angel's wings: it's gonna be a few bucks more. What I'm most surprised about is the continual suggestion that the staff is unfriendly and unhelpful. I've only ever found the staff to be kind and forgiving of my ignorance. Whenever I've had a question, they've addressed it and explained why, for instance, I can't just eat 3 pounds of vegan cheese. That was good life advice. I think what makes people think they're being mishandled is simply that the staff treats people like adults: there isn't a coddling of you as a customer. You come in, and you explore the variety of unable-to-find-anywhere-else foods and ingredients. You make your decision, pay, and maybe slip a few extra pieces of extra dark chocolate into your order while your partner is looking wistfully at the organic ginger cookies. That's part of what I enjoy about the place: One isn't assigned a store helper as soon as you walk into the place. You don't have a forced interaction. You're left to discover, learn, and expand your palette. Everyone is welcome here - I've never felt otherwise. But maybe if you're looking for a group of people to stop making sure their product is as perfect as possible for the sake of explaining carrots to you for 15 minutes, you'd do better at a Giant. As for me, I'm thankful that there is someone nearby who can offer my home some really tasty, really healthy (or not, in the case of the 3 pounds of vegan cheese) options without the creepy Whole Foods vibe.

This is by far the best market in Lancaster for fresh, organic produce and those hard to find ingredients. They have a coffee bar, pre-made foods from their cafe, and outdoor seating. This is a hidden gem for any foodie!

This is a fantastic little shop in the heart of Lancaster, PA. It's tucked away on Lemon St., and it is easy to miss. Especially with all the construction going on. I had to circle the block and come back around. From the outside, it's a rather unassuming presence in an obviously hanging neighborhood. As I stepped into the shop, it was initially underwhelming. But thankfully, I never let that deter me! I began to explore. The shop has a distinct Co-op feel, which I love. And considering it's a natural foods store, it seems fitting. Once you really start looking around, you see that size doesn't always matter - it's quality that counts. And Lemon St. Market certainly delivers on high quality goods. They have top selections of nearly everything! And a lot of fun, locally produced items - everything from raw milk and dairy to pastured meats to vegan goodies to handcrafted bath and product products. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The store was clean and bright. And the selection was great! If you find yourself in Lancaster, I highly recommend a stop by this fun little market!
