New Cafe in Jackson Heights

Found this café that just had a soft opening in Jackson heights, coffee was pretty good and the interior is amazing, they’re way better than Qahwah Valley imo

I want a physical copy of the New York Post

I hate the New York Post they’re a right wing rag. Any article they post online is useless pro Trump bs, but as a fan of the Mets the back cover they use for sports is going to be delicious after the Yankees loss. I can normally get it from a 7-11 near my office in Manhattan, but I am working from home tomorrow. Where could I buy a copy of the evil New York Post, I feel like I mostly see Hispanic news papers in this neighborhood.

Park Slope grocery price check, from this week's store circulars (Lidl, Whole Foods, C-Town, Foodtown, Stop & Shop)

Disclosure first: I built the free site linked at the end, no signup and no ads, and this post is mostly data.

Park Slope is the one neighborhood where a lot of people do their real shopping at the Food Coop, so a circular roundup feels a little beside the point. But if you are not doing a Coop shift this week, or you just want to know where the regular supermarkets are cheap right now, I read every Park Slope store's weekly ad each morning and this is what they are leading with.

A timing note: the C-Town, Foodtown, and Stop & Shop ads below run through tonight (Thursday 7/16) and flip to a new week tomorrow, while the Lidl and Whole Foods ads are the current 7/15 to 7/21 week.

Lidl (120 5th Ave), week of 7/15 to 7/21:

  • Tomatoes on the vine, $1.49
  • Bellarom ground coffee, $4.79

Whole Foods (214 3rd St), week of 7/15 to 7/21 (Prime price in parentheses):

  • Strawberries, 16 oz, 2 for $7.78 ($7 for 2 with Prime)
  • Yellow peaches, $2.77/lb ($2.49/lb with Prime)
  • Large Hass avocados, 2 for $5.56 ($5 for 2 with Prime)

C-Town (329 9th St), through tonight 7/16:

  • Seedless watermelon, quarter cuts, 79 cents
  • Slicing tomatoes, $1.49
  • Yellow nectarines and southern peaches, $1.49
  • Red seedless grapes, $3.99

Foodtown (409 5th Ave), through tonight 7/16:

  • Land O Lakes cage free large white eggs, $3.49
  • La Yogurt, 10 for $8 (80 cents each)
  • Land O Lakes whipped butter, $2.99

Stop & Shop (Atlantic Terminal, 625 Atlantic Ave), through tonight 7/16:

  • Red seedless grapes, $2.69
  • Tomatoes on the vine, $1.88
  • 90% lean ground beef, $5.99/lb

A couple of head to head notes: on tomatoes on the vine, Lidl ($1.49, and good through next Monday) beats Stop & Shop ($1.88). On red seedless grapes, Stop & Shop ($2.69) beats C-Town ($3.99), but both of those ads end tonight.

Prices are from the stores' published circulars, verify in store.

Need Help w/ Hit & Run on 10/5/2026

Looking for any info on a hit and run incident on Queens Blvd near Elmhurst early Monday morning on 10/5.

A friend of mine who works at the local hospital there was WALKING to work when he was hit by an unknown vehicle and the driver fled the scene. Thankfully paramedics were called and my friend was brought to the same hospital he works at for treatment. Shattered shoulder and severely bruised face and right side of his body. Can thankfully walk and no brain damage or major head trauma.

If anyone thinks that they might have info that could help the authorities in their investigation, please share here or call the 110th police precinct: (718) 476-9311
