Zabar's is the New York food store at 80th & Broadway, open since 1934, and it ships gourmet gifts, smoked fish, bagels, babka, cheese, deli meats, coffee and housewares around the US.
The money rule here is shipping: UPS charges by weight and address, billed per address, so a gift list spread over many homes adds up fast.
Zabar's remains a family business, and its site quotes Saul and Stanley Zabar on slicing smoked fish by hand, stocking artisanal cheese, baking rugelach and roasting its own coffee blends. Lori Zabar has written a book on the store's history that includes recipes from the store.
Online, the range goes past deli staples to caviar, foie gras and pâtés, cheeses sorted by milk type and country, pantry goods, and a housewares department with knives, bakeware, kitchen electrics and Zabar's-branded gear. Many items, including bagels, babka and coffee, are marked kosher, and there are kosher gift boxes. Gifts are arranged by occasion, from sympathy and get-well baskets to office and housewarming gifts, and the store also runs catering and a cafe.

More about shopping at Zabar's

Orders usually ship in 1-2 business days, with same-day processing before 12 noon EST. Perishables arrive next day, ground in 7-10 business days.
Perishables
Someone needs to be there to accept a perishable order, and claims must be made within 24 hours of receipt.
Where it ships
Delivery is US only, with no shipping to Canada; Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico go by air at extra cost.
Zabar's gives $5 off your first order when you sign up for its emails, so join before you check out and keep that email handy.
Add the code at checkout before you pay, then look at the UPS charge for each address on the order.
Because shipping is billed per address, $5 off stretches furthest on a single-address order.
If the box holds perishables, choose a delivery date when someone can sign for it.
Need to change or cancel?
Do it at least 24 hours before the shipping date.
