North Philadelphia · Est. 1957
Fresh bread. Cold cuts. Groceries that actually taste like they did yesterday. Ritas of 2nd and Grange isn't just a market — it's the pantry your block has trusted since before most of us were born.
Our Story
When Rita first opened the doors on North Mascher Street, the block was already humming — corner conversations, kids on bikes, the smell of fresh rolls drifting out the door. Six decades later, that rhythm hasn't changed. Neither have the standards.
What you'll find here isn't arranged for Instagram. It's arranged for you — the mom grabbing ingredients for Sunday dinner, the shift worker needing a quick hot meal, the regular who's been paying cash since the Clinton administration.
Three generations deep, still run with the same attention to the regulars who matter.
Every shelf is stocked with intention — quality over quantity, freshness over turnover.
You walk in, you're greeted. That's not policy — that's just how we do things.
What We Offer
From the bakery case to the deli counter, every section of Ritas is designed to make your weeknight dinner easier and your weekend spread impressive.
Loaves that crack when you tap them. Rolls soft enough to forget about dieting. Made here, sold here, gone by noon.
Ham, turkey, cheese — cut right in front of you. Plus a fully stocked grocery floor with everything from staples to specialty imports.
Tomatoes that taste like summer. Greens that haven't seen a freezer. We rotate our stock daily because wilted food doesn't belong on our shelves.
No time to cook? Neither do we. Hot meals pulled fresh — the kind your grandmother would approve of, and your schedule demands.
Soda, juice, water, beer — the cooler's always stocked and always cold. Because a warm drink is a tragedy we won't tolerate.
Paper goods, cleaning supplies, snacks, school things — the overlooked essentials that make a neighborhood market indispensable.

From the Neighborhood
I've been shopping at Ritas for over twenty years. The bread is always fresh, the people are always friendly, and I've never walked out without finding everything I came for.
Shop local, live local
This is what a real neighborhood market should feel like. You walk in and someone knows your name. The deli sandwich I get here is better than anywhere else in the city, honestly.
Family dinners, every week
Moved to the area five years ago and Ritas became my go-to on day one. Clean, well-stocked, and the kind of place that makes you feel like you actually belong in the community.
