Cacheo Food Market

What’s the simplest way to stock a weekend pantry in the Bronx? Cacheo Food Market on Sheridan Avenue keeps small-business shelves well-stocked with everyday staples and fresh supplies. The unassuming storefront sits a block from busy 161st Street, ready to serve coffee drinkers, home cooks, and anyone grabbing a late-night snack.

It’s an old-school corner shop that has quietly upgraded how it operates; grab a coffee at the hot bar, track down the refrigerated cheese section, or pick up a single-serve yogurt without hunting down bulk cases. The aisles shift with the seasons—root vegetables give way to berries, and bottled drinks shuffle to make room for holiday ciders. Whether you need a half-dozen eggs or a gallon of milk at 9 p.m., the shelves are usually within arm’s reach.

Customers dial (718) 293-3338 when they’re halfway out the door and remember they forgot one item; the line handles quick calls and counter orders alike. Inside, the refrigerated units hum quietly at the back while the high shelves hold canned goods and spices beneath muted fluorescents.

Finding the store is straightforward: walk the Sheridan Avenue stretch between Walton and 165th, or pull up the map listing Cacheo Food Market at 1011 Sheridan Ave, Bronx, NY 10456 for step-by-step directions to the front door. The blue awning sits above the parking-lot side of the block, practically impossible to miss in daylight.
