NetCost Market

An enormous selection of delicious eastern european deli meats. Tons of different types of smoked sausages and fish. I get my lox and kielbasa from here. Although it has been a while since I’ve had head cheese. So thats next on my agenda. I would get the veal tongue as the taste is delicious but the method of getting veal disturbs me.

Fascinating place. I stopped in to grab some veal tongues for a friend. Was amazed by what all they had in there. You will absolutely feel like you are in a foreign country walking around inside this supermarket. Their selection of sausages, breads, and pastries were impressive. A lot of the staff really don’t speak a lick of English; which just adds to the ambience of being in a foreign country.

great store mass variety of vegetables fruits and cold cuts (love the smoked fish and caviar section)

Always fresh and clean love to shopping here.

My family has been coming here for as long as I can remember and its such a well-​stocked gem of a supermarket. When I say that every section of the supermarket is extensive, it really is. You can find just about any type of produce, Russian candy, dry good, etc. you can imagine. My personal favorite is the bakery section — it’s filled with all types of yummy looking treats and my mom and I always get sucked in because hello, sweet tooth and bread heaven! Some things are a little pricier than usual (i.e. fruits and veggies), but others are also cheaper (candy and dried fruits). Whatever you buy though, it’s definitely going to be quality and fresh. The people who work there are also really nice. However, do expect to run into crowds of people no matter when you go because it’s just always that popular!

I came here because I just wanted to buy some grocery for my place without knowing its a russian super market. And when I went in I saw all different type of russian food and everything looks really good. I ended up buying some russian food to try and everything is yummy! I bought cake too, very tasty. Its like a thin layer of crepes with crème inside. All in all this supermarket is great! Love it! For sure I’ll come back more often.

I remember coming here with my parents as a child and I always hated now. Now, it’s actually a pretty good store. Maybe I grew up or maybe it improved. They have a lot of interesting options, including harder to find fruits and vegetables. I’ve purchased their meat a few times and I’ve never been disappointed. Overall it’s a good one-​stop-​shop. The workers are really nice, but occasionally you’ll run into a snappy Russian person. I guess it’s part of the charm.

Cashiers are not professional at all, very slow service, not friendly. You need to wait on line for 20 min even in express line. Mr. Muzaffar K. definitely not in the right place plus talks back in rude way.

This store is a one stop shopping for me — when I make it here I buy all the groceries, deli, fruits and vegetables. They have a great selection of deli meats and cheeses, freshly baked bread, variety of smoked fish, pickled vegetables, olives, and very decent ready to eat food. There is a nice selection of organic dairy products. There is an abundance of teas, coffee, honey (including organic), etc.
I have never had an issue with spoiled or expired items. Store staff is mostly helpful and sufficiently polite. Deliveries are timely and I have never had items missing or damaged.

Terrible service! People who work there are cold, unfriendly and DO NOT SPEAK ANY ENGLISH! How can you have a major super in Brooklyn without anyone who speaks English in the store? Lines are always long prices are high and quality is crap.

Huge assortment, fresh cooked food. My husband loves Russian candies and this store has a lot to choose from:) I usually stop by the store every time when i’m in that neigbourhood after i do my nails every 3 weeks for 4 years and since that time not a single complaint!

I’m willing to be the random idiot American girl who knows little/​no Russian at Netcost if it means I can have a beautiful single-​girl dinner of crepes and caviar while watching Netflix…
Net Cost has some fantastic fish, caviar, hot food, and dairy products. The prices are definitely decent. Mostly Russian food with American brands mixed in. It is definitely helpful to know a few polite words/​phrases in Russian at the deli counter.

This place is pretty cool. It’s right by the q train and you can’t miss it.
It sells almost anything you can imagine from Russian to Italian to Polish. So many things! There’s a hot food bar and a bread bar and a meat bar and oh my gosh, so much stuff.
I love it here, you can certainly get lost here. Some of the stuff is pricey, like the fruits, but they are really good quality so you get what you pay for. Other stuff is much cheaper like dairy and cheese.
It kind of irks me that their deli (meat station) is kind of unsanitary, like how they don’t cover their meats after cutting it but that’s just my pet peeve. Speaking of which, how clean is their hot food anyway…
Also this place is always very crowded! I’ve never not waited in line. It’s always a wait. Also, don’t even bother coming here by car. I’ve seen people triple park here and everyone just honks the crap out of their horns. My family included. Taking the road between avenue neck road and avenue v on 16 street is a call for death. If you’re a local, walk here. It’s the place for you. Or train.

Now this is a pretty cool ethnic market.
Referred by a friend so I could purchase some European red and black currants (frozen), and I mean currants, not mini grapes from California called currants, I found myself in a completely different world. As soon as I walked in, I was going to eat the entire store… the bread and pastries aroma was mesmerizing… take me to your leader!
I couldn’t believe all the unique grocery items in Net Cost. This market caters to Russians, and boy do they have it good.
I found my frozen currants in the freezer along with other very unusual, rare frozen fruits.
I’ll be back to explore!

This place is dope! I have to admit that living so close to this market, I’ve never gave it much thought to check it out, I’m glad i finally did after a few years. LOL!
Net Cost is a Russian market which also has a few aisle dedicated to American Products. Everything from the veggies to the meats look super fresh. Considering the location, I’m a fan! There are tons of Asian markets on my side of town but I don’t like getting up early, so usually by the time i get to the market, the good produce has been already ravaged by elderly Asian ladies.
Who knows, maybe i’ll start incorporating some Russian cuisine in my cooking. Chinese/​Russian fusion anyone?

Really nice market close to my apartment. From the outside it doesn’t like seem that great but the inside is very clean and they have a huge variety of groceries. They also have a huge deli and meats sections and everything is fresh. The prices are pretty good as well. I would recommend this place if you live in the neighborhood.

Fresh baked bread and excellent sausage. Plus, a great selection of meats, cheeses, produce, and beer — and speaking of which, you can even refill a personal jug from their beer tap.

Good selection. Get the the freshly baked breads and pickles.
Good luck if you don’t speak Russian.

So Im an American-​born Russian-​speaking New Yorker who tends to lean towards English more often than Russian. For many of you who relate, you’ll understand where I’ll be going with this. In many Russian-​speaking communities, it is common to get mistreated or not served because you either dont speak the language, or at least look like you dont. Many of these stores hire rude staff that will often skip you for someone who speaks their language because English is their 3^rd language, not even their second.
I have finally arrived to a Russian store that not only treats everyone with equal respect, but everyone speaks English. Smiling, courteous staff, eager to help. I feel, for once, welcomed by the Russian community.
The selection they offer is more than tremendous. And they dont only carry Russian products. The deli stretches far beyond Eastern Europe, but Italian and American products are offered as well. The prices are incredibly low too!!!
I hate writing surveys. HATE IT… but this place is truly a gem in Brooklyn. Thank you and keep it up. I am forever your customer!

Here’s my dirty little secret. I pretend to speak Russian so I can navigate this place without hassle. It’s that worth it.
Honestly, this is the most hidden find ever. The market is based in a warehouse that once housed an off-​price clothing store and a sweat shop. These days it’s a supermarket specializing in Russian products. You’d never know about it unless you’re either Russian or from the immediate area.
Out of all the Russian supermarkets I’ve visited, this is probably my favorite. It’s fairly low key, less expensive than the others (probably because of the relatively low rent they pay here) and has an absolutely huge selection.
My family and I have been shopping here basically since it opened, and while it used to be better and quieter, now they’ve expanded and offer a much bigger selection. Selection of what? Well, pickled items, fish, meat, teas, russian candies, russian beers, fruit and soft drinks and just about any other Russian edible item you can think of.
The employees don’t really speak English so it can be a process if you need something. For the most part I’ve done ok. It’s just at the counters where you’ll encounter a bit of trouble. I like to buy smoked fish there. I usually point at what I want and then do a half-​assed sign language letting them know I want more or that it’s enough. For the prices, though, it’s worth it.
