Wegmans

Wow! We got a Wegman’s — right on my way to Whole Paycheck and just past the Fresh Market.
Love Weggie’s — but very crowded and you can easily over buy/​over spend here. Don’t shop hungry! The cheese department is terrific. Also a «Pub» and dine-​in prepared foods (and mediocre sushi).
Cute little coffee bar in the front of the store, too.

I just happened to come across the Wegman’s in Glen Mills, and I could not believe how clean and big the store is. The employees were great and very knowledgeable.

Love wegmans! I’m from nj and couldn’t wait until they opened a location close to me! Great meat, seafood, produce, as well as a large gluten free and organic section!

So many choices, the place is incredible… Gourmet, ready to cook, ready to eat! Organics galore! Some of the prices are comparable to my local stores, but the produce was really nice. I brought home some hot Asian food, and that was really good. Great place, and the customer service rocks… They walked me to my car in the rain! Definitely worth the ride from my home!

From the time you step in until the time you step out its very clean and well organized. The don’t have that annoying staff that Ask to Check your bag like Walmart ect… The prices are normal for whole food selection fresh Never Frozen. They have a pharmacy so don’t forget to pick up Your medication cause I know their READY.

Wayyy too busy and way too overpriced for me, but still, pretty much a food lover’s paradise. Will check it out again sometime, after some of the excitement has died down.

I recently placed an order of a round two layer vanilla butter cream birthday cake for my children. The butter cream was super sweet and thick, just like icing. The cake itself tasted just like one of those that were made from the cake mix that you get from the shelf. My family and I were very disappointed.

I was pretty excited to have a Wegmans opening so close to home, but after quite a few visits to this location I’ve become disenchanted.
The prices aren’t really all that great, and the selection is just okay. I’ve gotten fish from here and it was pretty good, and they also have a great hot/​cold food bar, along with a good beer selection.
I doubt I’d do my usual grocery shopping here, but it’s a good spot to stop for lunch if you just want to make yourself a quick salad, or if you’re just in the area.

Love, love, love this store. I was so happy when they opened. Selection, price, and staff can’t be beat. I just have to avoid the prepared foods, bakery, and cheese sections so i don’t go broke. Their selection of organic produce is excellent. I had bought moldy raspberries and customer service issued a refund, no questions asked. Between the lobster tanks, train, donuts, and rooster, my kids beg me to take them food shopping. My twin three year olds even asked to have their fourth birthday party here!

I’ve reached a verdict with this Wegman’s location: three thumbs down. In fact, they ought to be put through a random inspection to ensure the safety and quality of their perishable goods.
I have altogether stopped buying meats from this Wegman’s and have returned to Whole Foods for this food item. The prices are higher, but I’m willing to make the sacrifice because I don’t feel comfortable serving Wegman’s butchered goods to my family. It is entirely a safety concern, as profuse bone shards and cartilage present choking and dental hazards.
Their dairy department is also in bad shape. About a month ago, I purchased a 16-​ounce container of Wegman’s brand sour cream that was well within the expiration date. I got it home and put a big old plop of it in my homemade chili. I had to dump out the entire bowl, however, as the sour cream was rancid.
I immediately called the dairy department to let them know. Although the manager was pleasant and apologetic, he was nonplussed. I told him my motive was not to receive a refund, but rather to let them know so they could pull the items to prevent food borne illness. Two weeks later, I purchased another container of the store brand sour cream. Like it’s predecessor, it, too, was rancid. I had to throw out the entire carton. I no longer purchase sour cream from this store regardless of the brand.
I also check expiration dates religiously at this store, because I have found multiple, interdepartmental occurrences of perishables being sold beyond their sell-​by and best-​if-​used-​by dates. That’s understandable if the store wants to sell these items, but they need to offer those items at a discount in a clearly marked location, so that customers can make an informed decision. Right now they are banking on busy consumers who might not have the time to inspect for freshness when and where freshness is both implied and expected. But if the sour cream is any indication of the reliability of expiration dates, then the discerning customer must take even unexpired goods with a grain of salt.
The bakery isn’t much better either. About a week ago, I went to do my early bird shopping. Since I’ve grown accustomed to this location not shelving its freshly baked goods until almost noon, I didn’t balk too much when I saw a sum total of 10 – 15 loaves of French baguettes on display. I picked one up and was about to chuck it into the cart. But if my experience with this Wegman’s location has taught me anything, it is to verify the expiration date on each and every perishable item I place in my cart. I’m glad I did, because this particular baguette had a best-​if-​used-​by date of three days prior. Although it would have been reasonable had the bread been baked the day prior, it is baldly unethical to push a days’ old loaf of bread (or loaves, since my baguette wasn’t the only out-​of-​date loaf being hawked that fateful Friday morning) when a consumer has a reasonable expectation of freshness from a department in which freshly baked goods are prepared on a daily basis.
While I’m not impressed with the management staff at all — they clearly don’t reach back to the customer when things have gone awry, which is usually the hallmark of defective management and, quite likely why reflections of shoddy management manifest in other departments, I still find the rest of the staff friendly, helpful, and courteous. If only store management would take a cue from their own employees. If only…

The food by the pound in the buffet tables is OK if you are in a hurry and hungry but nothing to write home about… kinda cafeteria like flavors. Bland.
I love the grocery part, great variety.
I have not tried the cooked food cases, for example 1 protein and 2 sides specials, and when I do I will update this review.

We were rather excited when we heard Wegmans was coming. We’ve been several times now, and we’ve reached a consensus that it’s just not that great.
1. Much of what they sell is their store brand. The items we have tried are pretty poor. Canned tomatoes taste like a can. Seriously those were the worse canned tomatoes I’ve ever had and they ruined our soup.
2. They have a large produce section, but not much organic and quality is lacking. Seems like everything we buy goes bad after 3 days whereas stuff from Acme lasts almost a week. For example, mushrooms went bad after 2 days. How’s that even possible?
3. Large bakery is nice, but none of it compares to homemade stuff from a basic recipe from the internet. It’s not bad, just uninspired.
4. The hot food bar looks awesome, but everything I’ve tried is either forgettable or downright gross. I don’t think any of the Chinese food is edible: gloppy, way too salty, mushy, etc. They clearly don’t taste anything. The fried rice is decent, actually.
5. Cheese shop is nice, but a bit limited. Deli has mostly their brand stuff, which is low quality.
6. Got a made-​to-​order sandwich, but the meats were low quality cheap stuff (pressed ham loaf, etc.) Cheese was decent. Bread was forgettable. I’m sure it had bread, I just can’t recall it.
7. Store layout is very strange. I just don’t get it. Duplicate items all over the store. You can’t just go to one spot for product X, you have to look in several places. Not sure the reasoning there.
The employees are friendly, which is a welcome change around here, but otherwise it definitely doesn’t live up to the hype. I hope they get better over time. In my other review, the Pub is pretty terrible, too. It is hard to do good pub food, but they clearly aren’t even trying.

This review is from a week after their Grand Opening.
The staff is amazing and knowledgeable! Store is big, bright, and clean. I was lured in by the Mediterranean Olive bar! Prices are reasonable. Devote an hour or more to check it out, walk the store, and talk to the friendly staff. Rosie was giving out samples of Wegman’s freshly squeezed juices. She was a delight to talk to. Josie from the New York store was wonderful checking me out and bagging my groceries. And then to my delight, upon exiting the store, Kyle offered to walk me out with a giant umbrella. It was pouring. And while I don’t mind the rain, it was nice that he walked me to my car, and loaded my groceries into my trunk! When the employees are this great, you know their employer is taking terrific care of them. Another bonus is if you transfer your prescription to Wegman’s, you get $ 20 towards groceries (5 per household). What a great place for one stop shopping! I have been a fan of Wegman’s since 2011 and am totally welcoming them to Concordville with open arms!

I refrained from visiting Wegman’s during the opening week because I knew they would be busy but a month later, the parking lot is still a nightmare and everyone is still blocking everyone else. Maybe the lanes in the parking lot need to be a bit wider. Anyway, as soon as I stepped into Wegman’s, it was instantly familiar because I’d been to other Wegman’s in Malvern, Warrington, and Collegeville. It’s basically the same thing — a supermarket, a prepared foods area, and a dining area. At lunchtime, the checkout line was a bit slow but the dining area was comfortable. Only minor issue is I wish they’d installed another drinking water dispenser in the dining area. Also, as with the other Wegman’s locations, I think the hot foods bar, at $ 8.99/lb, is rather pricey.

I have been to this store 2 times, and both times I experienced poor customer service. This surprised me, because being a newbie Wegman’s shopper, I was told that customer service is their forte.
My first visit– came in to pick up a few things for Thanksgiving dinner. There was a nice selection of freshly baked pies so I picked one up along with a couple of odds and ends. Store was nicely stocked late in the day, for what I imagine was a busy shopping day for many. My cashier had the worst attitude. She couldn’t focus on checking me out because she was complaining to her co-​worker the WHOLE time that she was going to lose it of they assigned her to the checkout lines again after the break. Ok, I understand you’re a 17 year old high school kid who’s probably grumpy after working all day, but put on a happy face ok? It’s a joyous holiday season… pretend you’re happy! Am I supposed to feel great about you checking out my items with a crappy attitude?
Second visit– needed to order a birthday cake. Tons of people at the bakery counter, but EVERYONE decided to play the let’s-not-make-eye-contact-maybe-she’ll-go-away game. Haha, not funny at all. Finally flagged someone down for help and he says you have to order through that person. I explained my difficulty in getting their attention to help me. So he walks me over directly to the responsible person, so kudos to him for doing that. I also needed to order a sandwich platter, but I had to go to the catering desk for that and they were closed for the night at 8pm. Wegman’s is NOT making this easy.
I did have dinner at their pub on my first visit and the food was great, but the food was very slow in coming out. We had an order with 2 burgers, fish tacos and their lobster Mac and cheese.
I’m impressed with the layout of the store, selection, prepared food offerings, and the prices. If they could bring their customer service level up a few notches, I might come here more often.

I am a HUGE Wegmans fan. The first time I ever stepped food into a Wegmans, I was overwhelmed to say the least, but in the vest best way! Soooo, when the opened this one right by my work, I was extremely excited!
Being the first in the area, the first couple weeks were crazy. A bunch of spectators wondering what Wegmans is all about. They even had a parking attendant in the parking lot! When I went to this location for the first time, I was not disappointed. The biggest and best Wegmans I have ever stepped foot in!
Produce is always, always fresh. Prices are reasonable and quality is top notch! I love that they have everything you would want from a «regular» grocery store, as well everything you would want from whole foods (gluten free galore!).
Just a FEW qualms. For some reason, I’m not a fan of the self serve food bars at this location. I don’t know if they arent as busy in that area, therefore the food is just sitting out for a while or what. I usually love the hot bar food, but theirs is just meh. Get the sushi or the pizza– you can’t go wrong there. I must also say that the customer service is whatever, which I’m shocked about. I don’t know if it’s because it’s a bunch of 17 year olds behind the registers, but the few times I’ve gone, I’ve left feeling a little confused after, wondering what I did wrong to offend my cashier.
I’ll keep coming back of course, but I hope these few things get ironed out with age.

I mean honestly, whats not to like? I am not from this area and where I come from, there is no Wegmans. Since I moved here, though, I have heard nothing but high praise for this grocery store. Well, now I get it. the place is kind of amazing… Its a good thing I don’t live closer. Friendly staff, selection like whoa, and ready-​made fresh food availability comparably only to the big Whole Foods locations that do that sort of thing. Plus, the pub and beer section. really impressive. Its big though, give yourself some time to get lost and found.

Another great Wegmans. What makes this one so special? It’s a lot closer to Delaware! So close it’s practically in Delaware. Finally the wait is over!
It has all the great things you love and expect from Wegmans. During this new opening period they’ve had a lot of great demonstrations in the seafood department. The seafood department is fairly large and consistently fresh. And the sushi bar is really good, especially for grocery store sushi. The pretty awesome deli bar is present and stocked with hot and cold items. There’s the huge produce section we’ve come to love, though I believe this stores organic selection is smaller than other Wegmans. As usual lots of great options for vegetarians and vegans.
If you already know Wegmans this store has it all, even the Wegmans Pub (with a pretty wide craft beer selection). If you don’t know Wegmans, what are you waiting for? Your new grocery store is right here! Think Whole Foods combined with a standard grocery store all at great prices.
It took a while but it’s great to finally have a Wegmans so much closer to home!

My husband and I have been waiting for a Wegman’s for years. People at work would tell us about their outstanding customer service and incredible selection. And finally we were able to experience Wegman’s for ourselves.
The new store in Concordville, PA opened at 7am on 11÷08÷15. We arrived around 7:30am. Please remember that this review is simply my experience and my personal opinion of the store and restaurant.
We expected it to be crowded and crazy since it was opening day but we grabbed a chart and proceeded to head into the «Land of Wegmans».
First impression is that it is HUGE. Overwhelmingly so in my opinion. Here’s my breakdown by department:
Prepared Foods: Was excited to see such a great variety of sushi being offered. The prepared food ‘bars’ are extensive and broken down by selection (fruit, salad, prepared salads, Italian, Chinese). They offer pizza, breakfast sandwiches and regular sandwiches, all made to order as well as at least 10 different types of soup.
Meat Department: Good pricing and nice selection.
Seafood Department: A bit smaller than I expected.
Bakery: Large with not much in the way of specialty items. Lots of things in the refrigerator cases, cookies packaged up on shelves, ok bread selection that including bagels. Nothing overwhelmingly wonderful about it. Slightly disappointed.
Lunchmeat: HUGE counter and insanely large cheese section.
Produce: They boost over 100 products in their produce department and yes they do have unique offerings (dragon fruit anyone?) but with that being said, not much selection of ‘regular’ produce. Small selection of potatoes and onions for instance. It was just too big of a section of the store for my taste. I don’t want to have to take 20+ steps to get from the bananas to the baby spinach (not cause I’m lazy but because it isn’t the way that I am use to shopping).
Everything else was average. But I did continue to notice that while they offer regular brand names that a store such as Whole Foods doesn’t offer, they may only offer one regular brand name and then everything else is Wegman’s brand. Bread, Eggs, Milk, Butter, etc. And then to go along with the huge sections of cheeses, lunchmeats, bakery, etc, they have the last two isles that are strictly for BIG/​ECONO PACKS of things such as 20+ rolls of toilet paper, etc.
They do not offer a bag refund if you bring your own bags. At least they didn’t for us.
It is like if Trader Joe’s, Acme and Target got together and had a baby then added a restaurant.

As the surrounding counties got their Wegmans over the last 3 to 4 years, Delaware County has been suffering while waiting. The suffering is over and the joy has begun!
This Wegmans employs the same floor plan as the others so if like me you’ve been shopping at one 13 miles away you will happy and at home here.
The norms: organic food reasonably priced. Hot n cold buffet items that are good enough to feed the family. A Pub which I am sure my friends and I will enjoy often during Happy Hour.
As i sit here in heaven eating my breakfast accompanied by an organic pumpkin spice coffee i’ve decided on my way out to purchase the winter lager named after a Revolutionary War Patriot.
Heaven indeed !
