Different selection from the one closest to our home. But its a lot smaller than ours too. So they didnt carry a lot of the things we are used to getting here. But still nice place to shop. They employees were all kind, courteous and helpful.

Just stopped today to see if the bakery made any gluten free cakes or cupcakes. They only had one that was tiny & not very attractive. However I did purchase some cookies called the kitchen sink & they were fresh & AWSOME. Found a new favorite!

They have premium meats, vegetables, seafood, bakery and deli items. Also a good wine selection, seasonal items like holiday special foods, bulk nuts/snacks/spices, sushi and floral displays. The antipasto and seafood bar is good. Quick meals to go. Fresh-squeezed juices.

Rude treatment. Store was not open yet and I am not from the area. I started walking to the door and a man on his way into work or on break was wearing an apron outside and yelled at me. Not sanitary to wear apron for preparing foods outside of the kitchen

Excellent shopping environment. Fresh is an appropriate part of their store name. I love the specials they run on Tuesday in the Meat department and sushi specials on Thursday. Their meals kits for 4 are a quick meal option. Well run store with helpful and friendly staff.

The store was a little scary. Very dimly lit. Not many staffers around. Felt uncomfortable to me but I found a few things to take home.

I tried their mini loaves of bread (banana nut, zucchini, cranberry orange walnut and raspberry peach). I am in awe of how excellent the cranberry orange walnut loaf taste. I love the others as well; but, the use of cranberries in this particular loaf is awesome

Store has great sales. Went in today and bone in chicken breast $1.99 per pound. Every Tuesday boneless chicken breast $2.99 per pound. I get all of my chicken breast from them. Wish they put a store in trussville

Usually good service and happy employees. Food is always good. However tonight I went in about 30 minutes to close and asked for help with the coffee from the deli personnel. Every time I thought someone was coming to help they just walked past me. Tried to solve my question myself but with no luck so I left.I understand the employees were tired. I work in customer service and stand on my feet all day. I get it. I didn’t need someone to be happy to help me, just to plain help me. Was not impressed.

Its a beautiful store but Im afraid it has gone down hill. It needs to be better managed. Last time we went a couple months ago, we bought candied pecans and a spiced nut mixture from the self-serve bins. Both turned out so stale they were inedible. Today I went and a bunch of flowers and plants were wilted just sitting there, an artichoke dip I wanted expired a week ago, some of the lettuce was old, the bakery selection was really sad (but the lady was great), I tried to get two employees to help me and they ignored me (the lady at the cheese counter was wonderful though) and their cold cuts selection is almost non-existent. For the prices this store charges, quality should be much better.

Review №39

Salmon cakes were warm and disgusting. Manager said their policy is too not exchange food per owner but to allow customer to purchase another meal for half off. So customer should pay for food they did not eat. I ask to exchange for something else. Owner never came out to talk only the cook.However the waitress was prompt and very nice.If you are from out of town go somewhere else because kitchen manager said they cook their food based on local tastes.

Fresh Market is wonderful. I felt like I was in the midst of an Organic Garden....such health and a large variety. The coffee section out of this world. I bought the dark chocolate espresso beans! I plan to return soon even if Fresh Market is a 45 min drive from where I live.

Ms.Rebecca was very friendly and made sure the coffee was hot in the coffee Holds cause the original coffee was stone cold and 1 out of 3 were empty and cold.... She was very helpful.... Over all great customer service and the guy in the Deli asked me if I need any help he use the 10 foot rule witch is If you can see a customer you always hi can I help you in any way and he did. Great customer service...

Love the Fresh Market!! I come every Tuesday to get the specials on Chuck and chicken for 2.99 lb. The butchers are so helpful and will fix any size packages for you. Plus the quality is the best of ANY market.

Really great place for specialty items, especially if youre looking for organic produce and their meat department is outstanding as is their seafood. the only downside is that if you are shopping for fresh breads they tend to run out later in the day so you better go early rather than later.

Good food at the deli and the meal deals are great. Some stuff can be expensive but as long as you pay attention its no worries. The instructions they provide for cooking food from the deli are very helpful and have options for different cooking methods.

There is no grocery store I adore more than the fresh market. So why am I not giving this 5 stars? Because I cant afford you and youre about 2 and 1/2 hours from where I live. I wish their prices were better especially given the fine selection of food

Review №58

I enjoy shopping here occasionally. They frequently have sale prices on certain items but overall prices are high. The groceries are generally of a very high quality and they do carry some exotic items not available in your typical grocery.

Store was neat and clean but the deli selections were sparse and just thrown together. I was hoping to grab something fresh and delicious for lunch on my way to work, but couldnt find anything that looked decent.

Review №64

The Fresh Market is okay when you want to run in for lunch, dinner that day or a specific item. They are over to priced for what you get. Always check the dates on your products on the Shelf. Produce is pretty much up to par but like I said very pricey.

We get party desserts almost every week and are always pleased. Occasionally we get meals from the deli--always delicious and appropriate in size. Little big meals feed two of us at least three meals.

Review №68

Its a little weird to me how much of this store is dedicated to the candy aisle, but if you need specialty ingredients and dont want to support Amazon owned Whole Foods, this is a pretty good way to go. Friendly staff, good selection, decent prices.

Review №69

This place has all the main stuff I like without the fake hipster/hippie want to be vibes & weird smells. I prefer going here over the other highend stories but they typically never have everything I need. So, I usually end up having to make an extra stop somewhere else.

Cashier very nice. Came all the way from Logan Martin Lake. Arrived at 9am. I felt I was interrupting deli personel. No veal, only 3 lamb chops cut. Would have taken 15 minutes for additional chops. Bakery nice. Overall I think Ill stick to Publix.

The name definitely fits! Everything I’ve bought from The Fresh Market is fresh and delicious! If it didn’t come from The Fresh Market, it’s nowhere near the high quality or freshness. I’m truly spoiled!Sure the prices are a bit higher, but ohhhh so WORTH it❣️😊

Popped in for some Steaks, local Publics didnt have anything good looking in the case. Needed 5 bone-in Ribeyes, had 2 in case but were glad to cut 3 more to order @1.5, plus trim down the extra fat, something other stores never offer. When it comes to special occasions, Fresh Mkt is the place.

This is the only supermarket in town where I have been able to find New York cheddar cheese! Was so happy to finally find some. If youve never had it, it is far superior to Wisconsin cheese, btw. Worth checking out, for sure.Also they sell lots of other healthier brands, such as Paqui tortilla chips, Vuka energy drinks, and Essentia water. The produce is also very good here, most of the time. They also have specialty breads, which I think they make in-house, but dont quote me on that.They usually have a couple of cashiers, and theyre friendly enough.
