Baba’s

Baba's Marketplace is a life saver for late night geeks. The shop is 24*7 and the staff are friendly. Nayef in the Cash is always pleasant and helps everyone.

Disappointing Experience at Babas Marketplace I had a frustrating experience at Babas Marketplace, largely due to the unprofessional demeanor of the man behind the deli counter. A couple of times when I called in an order, it wasn’t communicated properly to him. Instead of owning up to the issue collectively as a business, he threw his colleague under the bus. I even asked him a simple question about adding a common ingredient, and he went off on a rant instead of addressing my request. Not only is that unacceptable in a food service environment, but it also creates a tense atmosphere. It's hard to feel good about eating food prepared by someone radiating such negative energy and this person seems to have that aura every time I see him. Because of this, I returned my sandwich and left even though it was already paid for. Just lost trust in this person handling my food moving forward. I work for a large organization which operates 24/7 and I will be informing my colleagues of my experience there so that they may make a fair decision about whether they’d like to order from there. If you’re looking for quality service and a positive vibe, I strongly recommend not going there during the day. 3 stars for cleanliness, presentation, and other staff members who are actually professional and helpful.

Baba’s has been my north star for the past two years. Where would we be without him?

They always charge more than the listed price, even when paying with cash. $10 panini with card = around $11.50, which is higher than any bodega I’ve been to. Prices are regularly wrong, such as $5 for a breakfast bar (really 5.44 even with cash) when the listed price is $4.

So far, so good. Sandwiches at the deli are delicious, but you may want to check what they are charging you with the menu. Clearly because this place is brand new, they are getting staff from other bodegas further downtown, who charge what they expect the sandwich to cost rather than what it says in the menu. All good if you’re looking for it, though, because your charges come up on a screen as they ring you up, so everything is transparent, a rarity at bodegas around here. Either way, I’m ecstatic to have this 24-hour option nearby. Columbia deli’s monopoly is no more.

Sign out front said BYO pasta for $5 and 10% off on Mondays. Board inside said they start at $5 and $.75/topping. They tried to charge me $8 for a pasta with one topping, and it was a Monday but they didn't take off 10%. Only stopped in because of the price point, so I left empty handed.

we have going to baba's since it opened and it never disappoints. The food is always good and fresh. Great selection of drinks. The cashier in the morning is so sweet and always greets us with a nice smile :)

This place called me at 3am and would not stop calling for 30 mins. I don't even live in new york and I've never been lol.

I stumbled on Baba's Market Place after looking for anything that would be open at 4a on Uber eats that wasn't McDonald's or White Castle. I was very hungry after a night of partying so I figured I'd give it a try. I saw chicken over rice as the most popular item so I went with that. I didn't have really any expectation but thankfully it was pretty good. It was prepared and delivered in a good amount of time too. I didn't realize chop cheese was even in the menu. Next time I'll try that! Overall I'd recommend!

Super vegan friendly the sandwiches and burritos I've tried are bomb and the staff is really nice and accommodating

Baba's Marketplace is a new deli/bodega/convenience store that opened up in the Morningside Heights/Soha area this past fall or so. In terms of things available, they don't have as many things as say Apple Tree Market or C-town nearby. But it's got a good assortment of items you can get as well as an assortment of lunch menu items. I got the burger and fries, which processed fairly quickly and comparable to price and quality as Hamilton Deli in the area. The register also displayed the credit card price and the cash price, which I thought was interesting as I had not seen that before. But good for them, credit card companies nickel and dime the little guys might as well push back. The space itself is smaller than Hamilton Deli, Appletree, and even Subconscious. But they do have a small space outside to dine, which those establishments don't really (excluding Apple Tree and their table tops). The space itself is fairly clean as it is new compared to the other places nearby.

Can't complain, everything is solid... the food, the service, the prices are good for the area, 10/10.

Good food and quick service! The store was very orderly and clean. No other comments at this time!

Go to appletree it's way better. Never happy whenever I get a sandwich here. Appletree isn't perfect but it's a pretty sweet spot with nicer staff as well.
