I always love their teak furniture set ups & selection of garden pots.

The garden center is one of, if not the best of its kind in the area.

Another thing I love about Adams is that they're a plant nursery. They sell beautiful flowers, trees, shrubs, vegetable seeds, gardener's merchandise like soil and tools are carried in the store.

We certainly have been to all of the bulk yards in the area and none compares to yours! Most bulk yards have impatient drivers on their loaders that are not very nice but your guys are friendly and also considerate of our nice work trucks. I have personally used Adams Landscaping to install a stone walkway at our home. The design and workmanship was outstanding and it truly was a great experience.

The attention to detail and painstaking cuts and curves to make it all just look perfect and like it has been there all along show the pride you all take in your work. Not to mention the immaculate clean up job done each day you worked here and when you were done.

Also, I got my mom the tea gift basket from their gifting center and she loved it! They do a good job curating baskets based on different themes. Works well for special events or even in-a-pinch gift giving.

As usual Adam's passes with flying colors. When my son saw the gift basket his eye lit up like Christmas morning. Thank you, we're very happy

So happy with fruit basket delivery! I highly recommend Adams!

Bought the Lemon Meringue pie Sunday, it is delicious. Firm and light meringue sweet and tart filling, as good as the best homemade. We love that store especially the bakery!

Their bakery is amazing. I even had a custom cake made for my boss that was decorated with half sunshine and rainbows and other half dark and gloomy and it was so cute.

Best store to go to for any of your fresh food & veggie needs. Great outdoor selection with a beautiful nursery as well. So many handmade options. Can't forget to mention the amazing bakery there as well. Picked up two cakes yesterday for a party that were FABULOUS and less than $60 for both!!

Their bakery is a delicious addition too. The Apple Crisp pie was to die for. Breads, rolls and bagels are terrific. Irish soda bread for St. Pats is awesome.

I ordered two of the mini-Italian pastry trays for a family event, and had them delivered to the restaurant. There was a vast selection of pastries, something for everyone, they were delicious, and the delivery was on time. Thank you, Adams Fairacre Farms and Bakery staff!

Recently I ordered a Wedding cake! Cake tasted amazing and the decoration was exactly as I asked! They did a beautiful job! I am very pleased with the outcome! I highly recommend this place! Thanks to K and her team at Dutchess Turnpike!

Fresh and Flavorful Seafood at Adams

Our seafood is so fresh because it’s so popular… and it’s so popular because it’s so fresh

It’s not bragging to say that Adams Seafood is good because it is so fresh. Every day, except Sunday, we receive deliveries from The Fulton Fish Market in New York City, the Boston Fish Pier, Portland’s Fish Exchange, the New Bedford Landing and many more. Another reason our fish is fresher is because we bring in much of our fish whole and cut it in our stores, so it is exposed to the air for as short a time as possible. When you look at our whole fish, you can see how fresh they are by the firm glossy color and texture, and eyes that are bright and not sunken. It should smell fresh, maybe sweet, or a little briny.

Understanding Seafood Terms

Ever wonder about the differences in seafood terms? What is farm-raised, what is wild-caught? Learn more about the various types of seafood and what makes each unique. Then check in with Joe Longendyke on how to pick, and prepare, the best pieces.

Our Commitment to Quality

Adams fishmongers have years of experience buying and selling and their skills allow us to offer our customers healthy, flavorful, competitively priced, high-quality seafood. We are your neighborhood fish market with personal service, but we’re unlike most because we have a massive daily turnover, so our fish is always fresh. Our fishmongers ensure that each product meets our high standards before it reaches you.

Our Fish Chefs Help You be More Creative

Each Adams Seafood Department is a little different because we cater to our customers’ requests. Our staff is knowledgeable and helpful, and since some are also chefs, they create tempting combinations and store-prepared, take-home fish dishes that will please your palate and delight your family. The selection changes often, so this week’s Alaskan sole stuffed with crabmeat may be Tilapia with shrimp stuffing the next time you come in. Check back frequently to discover new, delicious options.

Whether we prepare your seafood, or you prepare it yourself, Adams Seafood is the freshest you can get and will gratify your guests and your family with its quality.

Order Seafood Platters for Your Next Event

Order shrimp platters, salmon platters and lobster and shrimp macaroni and cheese for your next gathering. Order in-store or Online for pick-up or delivery.

Fabulous selection, polite and knowledgeable staff in all departments (especially seafood), clean organized store! I love it!

Great place to buy fruit and produce from growers in the local area. Meats, and seafood are also fresh. No matter how busy they are you can always seem to walk right up to a register with a friendly cashier.

An excellent variety of groceries from their fresh seafood (you have to try the stuffed sole) to their garden center and everything in between.

Deli FAQs

Can I special order a product or line of products that are not currently available at your Deli?
If the product is available from our distributors, we can usually get what you’re looking for.

Does Adams have their own brand of deli products?
Yes! We have our own line of deli products, Adams Farmstand Fresh. Click HERE to see Adams Farmstand Fresh nutritional information.

Are your cold cuts gluten-free?
Yes, we only slice the highest quality cold cuts available on the market. Some lesser quality companies will use fillers as a substitute of real meat to cut the processing cost and those fillers may contain gluten.

What is a processed cheese?
Processed cheese is a food product made from a normal cheese (and sometimes other unfermented, dairy by-product ingredients), plus emulsifiers, saturated vegetable oils, extra salt, food colorings, and/or whey and sugar. As a result, many flavors, colors, and textures of processed cheese exist. The most naturally made, unprocessed cheeses are Swiss, Brie, Parmesan and Mozzarella.

What’s the difference between “Organic” and “All Natural” cold cuts?
Organic 
Organic is a strictly regulated term by the USDA. For meats to qualify for the organic label, farmers follow non-chemical practices such as not using pesticides in the feeds their animals consume. Rotational grazing, balanced diet and clean housing may all be used to maximize the health of the animals without chemical interventions. The organic label is used voluntarily, but to be able to use it, a farm must meet the USDA’s regulations.

Natural
According to the USDA, meats may be labeled as “natural” if they are minimally processed and contain no added color or artificial ingredients. The label must explain why the food is considered natural. “Naturally raised” is a voluntary term, not USDA-sanctioned, that refers to a farmer’s practices. This means livestock have been raised without growth-promoting substances such as added hormones or antibiotics and have never been fed animal or aquatic byproducts from slaughter.

Does Adams slice organic cold cuts?
No. USDA regulations prevent us from using the same equipment and refrigerated cases that non-organic products use. Some products that we slice contain nitrates/nitrites and other common additives to cured meats that would be picked up by the organic products, hence diminishing organic value.

So, do you have any organic selection?
Yes, we do offer a selection of Applegate pre-sliced and packaged cold cuts in our self-serve case.

I have a question not listed here.
Please speak with any of our Deli staff. They will be happy to help you.
