Fil-Mart Eatcetera

Fil-Mart Eatcetera brings authentic Filipino flavors to coastal New England, earning an outstanding 4.9-star rating as Newburyport's premier Filipino grocery and eatery. This family-owned establishment uniquely combines a well-stocked Filipino grocery store with weekend food service featuring fresh-cooked Filipino specialties. The market section offers comprehensive selections of Filipino ingredients including frozen goods, canned products, snack foods, and imported items that New England's Filipino community relies on for authentic home cooking. The weekend dining experience showcases traditional Filipino dishes prepared fresh from the kitchen, with meals beautifully presented in banana leaves that honor traditional serving methods. Signature items include perfectly prepared halo-halo served year-round, savory lumpia with crispy wrappers, and weekend specials like pork barbecue that customers plan their visits around. The coffee bar adds another dimension, making the space welcoming for lingering visits. Operating Friday through Sunday allows the small team to focus on quality over quantity, creating an atmosphere that feels more like visiting a Filipino home than shopping. For Filipino families scattered across Massachusetts and New Hampshire, Fil-Mart Eatcetera serves as an essential cultural touchpoint, providing both the ingredients for home cooking and the ready-made Filipino meals that connect the diaspora to island traditions in unexpected New England.
