Avon Mkt

Been going here for years but that may change after today. I walked in to buy a few things and the place smelled like cigarette smoke. The worse part is the smoke got worse the further we went into the store. Can’t believe they allow smoking in a business that sells fresh meats

This is one book you can’t judge by its cover — I am telling you right off the bat the place just ain’t pretty. The neighborhood is not what it used to be — but its not that bad either. The beauty of Avon Meatland is found on the inside — of your tummy!
This is not your new «trendy» butcher-​shop where everything has been pre-​cut and pre-​seasoned and priced right out of reach. This is the old skool neighborhood butcher where the best buys come in bulk and the specialty is in the service and the fact that most customers are known by name and their favorite cut. The guys are all totally awesome to shoot the shit with and they take no offense that I have my «faves» when it comes to cutting my meat! I have been coming here since I can remember, and before that my mom was also a weekly regular. I have introduce so many people to Avon it would be impossible to count and I was really shocked (yet honored) to be the first to review on Unilocal.
Like I previously mentioned the appearance is that of a neighborhood store it is nothing fancy, I know the guys are diligent in trying to keep everything as clean and organized as it can be. Let’s face the facts — I come here for quality food at a bargain price I am not expecting it to be sterile or classy, or else I probably couldn’t afford it. This is a convenient place for chefs, restaurant owners, caterers, and home-​cooks like me when you just gotta have something and can’t wait for it, Not only is this one-​stop shopping. This is the go-​to find for many items that you can’t get anywhere else, and it they don’t have it — but can get it for you, they will. You can all thank ME for the giant jars of Melba/​Raspberry Sauce for $ 8 to go with your 3lb bag of battered mozzarella sticks for like $ 10 — restaurant quality baby! For what most restaurants charge for an individual order or two you can get an entire 3−5+lb bag of restaurant quality mozz stix, chicken tenders, nuggets, popcorn chicken, patties, onion rings, poppers, battered mushrooms, and more, plus every kind of french fry/​hash brown you can think of. A plethora of frozen veggies, seafood, and stuff I haven’t even figured out yet. I am told you can even order fresh lobster! There’s industrial size cans of whatever you need a lot of and a spice or seasoning or rub or sauce for everything under the sun. And it’s not at jacked up prices either — so you don’t break the bank because something new caught your eye.
OK I haven’t even mentioned the meat yet… Can I say — the absolute best Ribeye you will ever find anywhere? And it’s usually the cheapest too! — $ 4.99/lb? Yes, this is real Prime Rib — and it’s remarkable… Granted the prices change up and down but even on the high side I don’t think I have ever seen it go above $ 8.99 for the boneless. I am very loyal to the Ribeye, we have steaks or a roast about once a week. But the sirloin, strips, and t-​bones or porterhouses are also right on par, They have a wide assortment of pork, chicken, sausages, bacon, and cases of deli meats and cheeses, and hot dogs and hams and and and — I cannot keep going as this would be the longest review ever. Lets just say if there’s ever a chance for you to stop in — I highly suggest you do yourself the favor. You can tell the guys that Luci sent ya! ;-) ya never know — depending on the day I might already be there getting dinner. They are open early til 6pm every day but Sunday.

I went to this market and found everything I needed, I bought italian sausages ox tails one foot long beef dogs. They have fish too. The service is fast and friendly.
