Wegmans

Best grocery store I have ever been to!
I love their pre marinated fish and chicken– it is so convenient– for only around $ 6 – 10 all you have to do is stick it in the oven and bake it according to the instructions and voila! dinner is ready! Perfect for two servings depending on how much one can eat…
Also the grocery store has a wide variety of gluten free and vegan friendly options. The bakery and café are also very nice!
This wegmans is open 24 hrs too which is super convenient for students.
Only complaint is that some items are a bit too expensive– for example i was about to buy a 12 oz freshly made smoothie until i saw that it costs $ 6…

This is hands down the best grocery store in the world! It has everything and more. An amazing food court with delicious dumplings, tons of international products (everything from queso fresco to Jamaican jerk paste), their own private label products like their ready to drink teas from Japan that are unbelievable, they even have a humidifying section for their cheese and fresh truffles, not to mention their fresh lobsters and amazing meats! One of the best things about it: it’s always open!

Being from the west coast, I had no idea what Wegmans even was before I came to school here. It’s hard to just call it a grocery store — it has a huge selection of home items and a wonderful, large section of food made in-​house that you can eat in their seating area or take home for lunch or dinner. The bakery items are amazing and the actual «grocery» part has aisles upon aisles of foreign foods as well as a vegan section. I’ve never failed to fill my cart on each visit. Depending on when you go, it can be very crowded, but all the same I find it enjoyable and practically relaxing, which isn’t something I can say about any other grocery store.

Dear Wegmans,
You are the wind beneath my wings.
Seriously, Wegmans is the best grocery store in the country. I was introduced to them in college and I’ve missed them everyday since graduation. It’s always on my list when I’m back in town for a visit. The dining area is simply fantastic. The hot food, particularly the Chinese food is fresh and delicious. My personal favorite are the amazing subs that are made to order, just how you want. I stopped by twice on my most recent trip and indulged in two subs. I don’t understand why you can’t get subs like this on the West Coast, but you can’t. Oh and be sure to get a homemade chocolate chip cookie with your meal, they are seriously the best cookies around.
It doesn’t stop with the prepared food though, the grocery store itself is amazing, each section is better than the next. The produce is beautiful and the selection can’t be beat. The baked goods are fresh and delicious. The bulk candy section has a little train driving around it. There is a giant beer selection and even a walk in cooler in the back corner.
I’ve really become a grocery store aficionado in my old age and I wish I had a Wegmans in my town. Luckily I have a lot of options, but for some reason none of them compare. There’s just something special about Wegmans. It should be noted that they are also in the top ten on the Forbes best companies to work for list every year, so they treat their employees well too. In a perfect world I would have a Wegmans next to my Trader Joe’s, a girl can dream I guess…

Wegmans is BY FAR the best supermarket in the area. First off they are open 24 hours which is an automatic win in my book because when you really need pizza bagels and ice cream at midnight, Wegmans has your back (the prepared foods area and meat/​fish stands are not open ²⁴⁄₇). They also have a great selection of fresh produce (all your normal goodies plus pre-​cut fruit and veggies, an Asian veggie section, and a tropical fruits section as well as fresh pressed juices– I personally love the tangerine juice as well as orange pineapple). They also have a natural foods section which I love because I can easily find all of my health food in one area. They have the same for foreign foods which makes cooking a particular cuisine super easy. The candy area is insane and they even have candy throwbacks! Clark bars, people! An oldie but a goodie. The prepared foods section offers a variety of soups, pizza, a hot and cold salad bar, an Asian and Indian area, sushi, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, wings, and make your own sandwiches. I personally love their tomato basil and orzo soup (which you can also buy in a plastic container) or I make myself a turkey sandwich.

Wegmans are the best grocery store in America! !! Ive been to similar grocery stores all over US but none of them compares to Wegmans !
Wegmans has almost anything you can think about, from fresh produce to natural organics products. They have an excellent selection of asian groceries too !!
The food court area is totally awesome, theyve got a salad bar, fruit bar, olives bar, chicken wings, pizza, chinese entrees, indian food, fresh made sandwiches, a coffee bar and sushi !
They also do bulk items products for a great price without having to pay a club fee like other bulk item stores !!
Now im living in a city without wegmans, ah how I wish wegmans could be all over US ! I absolutely love Wegmans !!!

I shouldn’t be posting this before my GreenStar review, but I’ve been a Wegman’s customer for about two years longer that I’ve been a GreenStar member, so that’s the logic I’m working with here.
That said, I am new in town, so I’m getting used to this location’s floor plan. But what I appreciate are the one-​page directories in clear hanging wall files made available at the end of certain aisles. I don’t mind asking employees where stuff is, but there’s something empowering, not to mention time-​saving, about not having to find someone to access what I need/​want since most of the information’s already been made available.
Another plus is the self-​check out area, a first for me as a Wegman’s customer, so a small wave a relaxation flowed over my muscles when I discovered it on the other side of the berries during my first visit here. As a former checker/​bagger from the old school, my items absolutely have to be bagged a certain way. I don’t get too p*ssy when they’re not, but I’ve always been happy to organize — of my own volition — what I intend to buy on the conveyer belt for cashiers to simply place in a bag (You’re welcome.). However, when doing my own thing is an option, I go for it.
Because this is new pasture, it’s obviously greener than the one I left (Or should I say «fled»?). I’m sure when the newness will wear off; but after it does, I’ll still want to shop here and not feel as if I have to.

Quite possibly the best grocery store ever created. Amazing selection of healthy food, aisle after aisle of gluten free foods, and friendly fast service. Even better than Publix, and that is saying a lot.

THIS STORE IS MORE CHAOTIC THAN WAL MART! I was surprised at how dead Ithaca’s Wal Mart was (for a Wal Mart). Oh, it’s because everyone and their mom is at WEGMANS.
I recently moved here from out of state and so I’ve never been to a Wegmans. Even before I moved here people told me I’d have to go to this magical place. If you have anxiety (especially social anxiety) this place will be stressful for you. You can’t even stop and look at anything because someone will come barreling right at you with their cart as if they could literally run right through you. It’s like once everyone learns their way around the place they will race through like they’re playing Supermarket Sweep. Maybe I’m too southern (we tend to take our sweet time) but I find myself often thinking «Jeez… chill the f**k out, the food isn’t going anywhere!» Not to mention I’ve had people straight up cut in line ahead of me at places like the deli and the coffee… shop… stand??? Whatever that little coffee place is.
It’s an insanely convenient grocery store I’ll give it that. Although I see right through their ‘super fresh and all natural’ act. It’s just your standard grocery store with A LOT of prepared food options and a bigger than normal organic and international food sections. Good for college students who can’t or don’t have the time to cook.

I love you Wegman’s. I just love you. Its the only thing missing in San Diego; I have to go to 5 grocery stores in addition to farmers markets to even come close.
If you are in any city that has a Wegmans, run, don’t walk to Wegmans.
Fresh sushi, excellent bakery — from doughnuts to cannoli to high-​end chocolate goodness, excellent produce, any and all ethnic foods, I really could go on and on.

Love shopping here. They have a lot of organic products … Fresh food, good prices. My high light of my weeks is when I come here.

Well-​stocked supermarket, but not as unusual or strange as I remember. Maybe it’s because all the «really exotic» beverages I remember are now available at Cost Plus World Market, BevMo, and similar places?
Certainly, it’s a good supermarket with a decent hippie /​organic section, solid produce section, and some excellent to-​go food (great sandwiches, great sushi) — but doesn’t really stand head-​and-​shoulders above something like a Whole Foods.
The checkouts can be a zoo; one of my friends used to come at midnight on Fridays, when they’d stock the shelves for the weekend but it was quiet.
Bonus points for long hours, but not the other-​worldly experience I remember.

Wegman’s — and this goes for every Wegman’s I’ve ever been to — is the only big box western grocery store that I actually like.
Let me qualify that. There’s nothing wrong with most of the places I go to for groceries. The produce is passable, they have what I need, I get in, and I get out.
That’s exactly it, though — I get nothing more than what I needed, and I leave. Whereas, with Wegmans, I actually ENJOY browsing the place, checking out what products that Wegmans actually produces, which are usually better and cheaper than their name brand counterparts, and overall just enjoying that everything in the place is prepared and sold by people who are actually kind of happy to be there.
Wegmans products, if you didn’t get it, kick ass. And they have EVERYTHING. I mean, you might be able to find specialty items more easily in say, an artisan butcher’s shop. But, If you’re looking for anything up to «damned good» quality, they have it.
It’s like Trader Joe’s got married to Whole Foods, had a kid named Wegmans, and Trader Joe’s realized that Whole Foods was a high maintenance whiny cry-​baby, got custody of Wegmans, and raised her to never be bouge, and always be awesome.
I need a Wegmans that isn’t a 45 minute drive from my house. Sigh.

This is the best grocery store, hands down. The staff are friendly and do their jobs 97% of the time (ever place has their negative nancy). The atmosphere is nice on the eyes and gives the impression of expensive shopping, even though the prices are very competitive to those around such as Tops and Walmart. They have just about everything and are great for a one stop shop or a long trip. You can sit in the café with your laptop or speed through the busy aisles for your necessities. Some will say it is too busy. Well, what is a good business supposed to do about that? They are popular because they are a great store, the best, and I have traveled a lot and Whole Foods is the only thing that has come close and the atmosphere is very lacking.
Wegmans for life.

Great food, amazing customer service, wide variety, and surprisingly the prices are overall very reasonable.
After buying a fruit basket, one of the associates generously made it look really nice for my specific occasion.
I’ve never met an unfriendly staff member and always enjoy shopping here. It will be busy, so watch out for that.

Wegman’s has all of Ithaca by the testicles, but only mostly for good reasons.
Wegman’s is unquestionably the best grocery store in Ithaca. The quality and variety is unparalleled. This place has nearly everything — a ridiculously huge meat and prepared foods section, an extensive array of Asian foods that would make some Asian grocery stores blush, etc. It frequently has foods that are, simply put, rare in the U.S. On top of it all, the store is immaculate, the staff are incredibly nice, and the overall ambiance is pleasing.
The problem with Wegman’s is the price. Competitors in the area compete via price, meaning that Wegman’s is frequently the most expensive game in town. If you’re looking for the basics that aren’t likely to vary in quality — for example, specific brands of a prepackaged food — then Wegman’s will generally be more expensive than going somewhere else. The same equally applies to produce where quality is not as easily noticed, like bananas.
Thus, Wegman’s puts you in something of a pickle. If you want to save money, shopping here is generally a bad idea — you can pay as much as 50% more for the same food, albeit at a slightly better quality. Contrariwise, if you want to be cheap, you have to tolerate the absolutely terrible alternatives in the area. Sad, but true.

I have no idea how to rate Wegman’s because there are things that are awesome about it and things that absolutely suck about it.
Awesome: Great food selection. you can find almost any kind of esoteric thing here, from produce to baked goods to meat to dry and international goods. The beer selection is good (although not as good as Ithaca Coffee Company tavern or Finger Lakes Beverage) and I’m not kidding when I say that Wegman’s has yet to be stumped no matter what I’m looking for. I thought I had finally found something they don’t carry when I couldn’t find Devonshire cream in the British aisle. Nope, I was just looking in the wrong place. They have like 3 varieties of it in the cold case by the cheese.
Suckage: Expensive, so expensive. Nothing really is ever on sale, or anything you want anyway. My total here is easily twice what it would be for the same amount of stuff in other cities. Stop in for a few things, $ 100. Shop for the week, $ 200, and that’s just for meats, dairy, and produce.
Also: At pretty much any time of the day, Wegman’s is jam-​packed with all kinds of people, including those who are, shall we say, lacking social graces. I’d recommend going very early or in the middle of the night unless you enjoy being cut off and having carts rammed into your ankles every 5 seconds for a half hour.

I go to grocery stores all over the country and the Wegman’s chain is probably second only to Trader Joe’s in my book. This particular Wegman’s is fairly large and I found that they had a good selection of anything you may need. (In my case, it was TastyKakes, which are rarely seen on the West Coast.) The bakery and hot food sections are always where I spend most of my time, because who wouldn’t want to grab snacks here?
I found the staff here to be very helpful (as I was on a quest, I did have to ask where things were and no one ever seemed to be bothered by customer interruptions.)
Pro-​tips: use self checkout if you can and avoid the breakfast pizza (Corning’s Wegman’s wins over Ithaca’s in this department.)

I’m not a frequent grocery store goer, but I don’t think there is a grocery store like this in the West Coast. They have everything here. Delis for vegetarian, Mediterranean, Asian, and almost all others. Pharmacy, dry cleaners, flower shop, bakery, candy store, and on and on and on! The store is nice and clean. I tried Crab chowder and Cheese plate. The food was delicious and restaurant quality. Will stop by here again before leaving the town.

As it was my first time ever setting foot at Wegmans let alone HEARD of this grocery store, it was understandable that I was quite apprehensive. However, on the drive there at a midnight shopping run with my brother who lived in Ithaca (he went to Cornell University) and my sister who was just as clueless as I was, he told me that it was open ²⁴⁄₇. Wait, what?
That was awesome! :D
When we arrived, my jaw dropped. This place was huge! It reminded me of Whole Foods… but bigger. The size was quite capacious and honestly could have been a warehouse before they redid it. Just the bakery inside alone felt like a room in of itself. I was eyeing their muffins for a good ten minutes.
As my brother and his girlfriend went to buy some needed groceries, my sister and I trekked to the cheese ‘aisle’ –if it was even that. There were islands and walls surrounding us of this abundance! We were literally enclosed in a room of cheese! Okay, both of us stayed in the cheese ‘room’ for a good half hour… or more. She left the area eventually getting a block of parmesan and brie.
Still somewhat stuck near the cheese aisle, one thing stood out to me… QUARK! Oh my goodness. I’ve only seen quark in a few IG posts by some fellow health-​nut IGers. Damn, one pint was a hefty six bucks though.
My sister and I managed to find our brother in this organic, farm-​to-​produce based… labyrinth of sorts. He was inspecting some gigantic bok choy. Whoa, I also saw some supersized veggies myself.

Soon, both my siblings left with their purchases. My sister and I also left as Wegman-​ers! :D As we were driving back home on the highway, we spotted a Wegman truck. Immediately, we pointed at it and shouted, «WEGMANS!!» Yeah. definitely newly devout Wegman-​ers.
