Local supermarkets offering delivery
Local grocery chains been providing free or inexpensive grocery delivery service within their neighborhoods for decades, usually with hand carts pushed from the store to your apartment.
Many still do, and some now even deliver beer with the rest of your order.

Bushwick Met Fresh
The Brooklyn market is doing free delivery on orders that can be placed online; and Eater reports most orders arrive within two hours of ordering.
The orders show up on your doorstep. Some basic items like bananas and limes aren’t searchable on the website so you have to add those manually.
This long-time Hell’s Kitchen grocery offers organic produce and other natural foods and non-food items for delivery.
Orders are taken only by email. If delivery is in Hell’s Kitchen and adjacent areas, it will be done by the store; anywhere else in the city, the delivery will be UPS, so don’t order frozen food or anything requiring refrigeration.
H Mart:
With five stores in eastern Queens and two in Manhattan, it stocks a beguiling range of Asian groceries.
H Mart offers a delivery service too, the drawback being that it only delivers to zip codes in Manhattan and northern New Jersey.
Delays currently run nine to 11 business days, so ordering any fresh food is out of the question.
THEY MUST TAKE SNAP BY PHONE LIKE CREDIT AND DEBIT, IN NYC
What about Westside Market, whats their home delivery cost ?
I did not include them because there is no way to contact them by phone or email. I just phoned three locations – no answer at any of them. Since several locations are open 24/7, best suggestion is to go very early in the day or very late in the evening, and ask at the location what delivery policy is.
