Alba's Market

Alba's Market is a neighborhood grocery store, convenience store, and meat market located at 1687 Dewey Avenue in Rochester's Maplewood neighborhood. The store positions itself as a community-focused grocer serving the surrounding residential area along one of Maplewood's main commercial corridors. Open seven days a week from 7 AM to 2 AM, Alba's Market operates on extended hours that make it accessible for early-morning and late-night shopping needs.

Alba's Market carries a broad selection of grocery items alongside its meat market counter. Beyond standard grocery and convenience store staples, the store offers prepared hot food including rice, beans, and empanadas. The market holds a New York State grocery store beer license, issued in November 2021, allowing beer sales on-site. Additional services include order delivery. The store accepts all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.

Alba's Market operates as a bodega-style neighborhood grocery—a format that fills a gap along the Dewey Avenue corridor between larger chain supermarkets. The store combines everyday grocery shopping with a meat market and prepared food counter under one roof, functioning as a one-stop local shop for the Maplewood community. On-site parking and security are available during operating hours.

Alba's Market sits on Dewey Avenue, one of the primary north-south thoroughfares running through Rochester's Maplewood neighborhood on the city's northwest side. The store is a short distance from Maplewood Park, which is known for its rose garden and the annual Maplewood Rose Festival each June. Dewey Avenue Presbyterian Church, a Second Renaissance Revival building at the corner of Dewey and Seneca Parkway, is another nearby landmark. The surrounding area is primarily residential with small businesses lining Dewey Avenue. A parking lot is available on-site for customers driving in from the 14615 ZIP code area and beyond.
