Wegmans

this Wegmans is just okay. For some reason they like to move the merchandise around CONSTANTLY… very frustrating. Also the music is WAYYYY tooo loud!

Consider this a 3.5
Wegmans has everything. I love it but the hunt can be time consuming.
The only problem is finding what you are looking for. It would be handy if the stores organized in the same way. Luckily I was with someone who knew the store.
I am sure once you get to know the particular store shopping is a snap.

I’ve heard it asked before and I guess now I have to ask too, how come the $ 6 meal is $ 8? It’s barely worthwhile at $ 6. Fried chicken comes with two pieces and two sides for $ 6. Not bad, not if you like skin, fat and bones. Terrible, no meat on either piece. With the chicken Marsala you get to pay $ 2 more for one piece of chicken but at least it’s boneless and edible. Mostly. Next time I have $ 6 to spend on dinner I’ll go to Mighty Taco. At least I’ll get enough food to get gas.

This is more 3.5 stars but I’ll keep it at 3. The first half of my shopping is always so frustrating (but it usually gets better as I go.) I am an organizational freak. I like straight rows of merchandise from one end of the store to the other. That way you can start at one end and go up and down the aisles til you get to the other end. No fuss, no cart bumping, no crowds, no traffic jams… Unfortunately only half of Wegmans is set up this way.
The part you walk directly into– the produce and bakery departments– is a hodge podge of small stands strewn about the department with baskets and boxes of items, aisles only wide enough for one cart. I get *incredibly* frustrated in the produce department. It takes me so long to get what I need because there is ALWAYS someone where I want to go and I am forever backing the cart up, turning around, going the other way, or getting dirty looks or sighs when I try to squeeze past another shopper in the aisle I’m in… I don’t understand how this concept really works for anyone. It’s a mess and I hate it SO MUCH.
Once you get past the bakery, it opens up more into actual, real aisles. *panic attack decreases*
Once in the aisles, it’s pretty smooth shopping. They’re undergoing construction in the freezer section right now, so getting through there is a little tight right now but I know that will be better soon.
Prices. Prices are decent. Sometimes I can get better deals at Tops (at least they have a weekly ad that I can plan meals around– Wegmans does not give their customers that luxury). I wish Wegmans offered more affordable store-​brand items like Tops does.
I have never eaten the fresh made food in the café, so I have no opinion of that. I have had their rotisserie chicken (only $ 5!) and it was delicious.
The employees here are super friendly and very nice. Checking out is always a nice experience.
My oldest son has used the in-​store child care in the past and really liked it. The associates in the child care always seem really sweet and genuinely like working with kids.
All-​in-​all, the beginning of my shopping trip here is always a terrible, frustrating, panic-​ensuing mess, but the second half is always nice and pleasant.

I stopped by here when I realized I was fairly close by at the Farmers Market. I knew what I was looking for and they had it out front.
I picked up 2 of the large mums they have that I was not able to find anywhere else in town. Only one fit Ito the cart easily so I walked in hoping I could buy two and pick up the second outside. I was able to! So many places would have sent me back it for the second with some sort of comment about «inventory control» or the like. Not here, not today. Made it easy to pull up and load the mums.
I did venture to the bakery to pick up a bagel, but it was right in my path from the door to the cashier so I can’t really review the rest of the store.

Wegmans is by far the best grocery store around. Quality is exceptional and the staff is attentive and very pleasant.

Wegmans is great. I especially like the carryout café as I eat many a meals there. The staff is always friendly and helpful. In general prices are the best around and they are «everyday prices». I secretly judge people who grocery shop anywhere else.

From coming from a place with pretty terribly kept super markets. I love this place. They make great subs and have everything. Well i dont know if they have everything but all i go in there for is subs, small essentials near the pharmacy portion and the never ending beer room.
My girlfriend was more impressed with the amount of food and fresh goods they have here. It is well organized in my opinion and clean. The staff is super helpful and are able to locate anything you may need when you ask them.
They have a food court ranging from subs, sushi, and hot meals. The food court also has wifi, which is a solid place for studying on the upper level if you have to study up there.
This is how i wish all supermarkets would be… or atleast the ones near me would be like…
i miss this place already.

Best Supermarket on the Planet. Great products at some of the lowest prices around, well stocked, very clean, especially for such a busy place; happy, friendly and helpful employees. With the aroma of the food cooking I get hungry the moment I step through the door.

The best grocery store in this area.

Wegmans has the best selection of products around. On par with Whole Foods, and not as expensive– Everything from the hot foods to the bakery is top notch quality. Mind you, do pay attention to what you’re buying, as not everything is cheap. For certain other staples, I recommend completing your shopping at Target. This location ranks up there with the Bridgewater NJ Wegmans as it is not overwhelmingly busy so you can get your shopping done quickly. You can find everything you need in one sweep and leave in a decent amount of time while provide a wonder atmosphere. That’s what a food shopping experience should be. Hands down, Wegmans over Tops or Shoprite any day.

I LOVE WEGMAN’s.
I now live in Boston and I miss the variety and options I had at Wegmans. People always compared it to the TOPs down the street price wise (Even the tops used to price compare). But its worth every penny. What I really love are the Subs, I’ve had them multiple times and dearly miss them. It was a collaboration with the creator of DiBellas Old Fashion Subs, and there sub rolls are really good. And the only two options are white or wheat. My favorite is the Buffalo Chicken Finger sub. They are never stingy with their toppings and load it on.
Their sushi is very good too, and the bakery has a wide array of delectable pastries, from the Fruit tarts to the chocolate Danishes.
I love that you can really get everything you need at one stop, the prices are good, the selection is great and the quality is nothing but the best. The staff has always been helpful and I have never had any trouble shopping here.
I agree with the sub standard Chinese food, but that’s what you get off a buffet. But even the cold cuts from the deli and the fresh dinners are always different and very fresh and appetizing.
I wish they expanded all over, like wal-​mart, except MUCH MUCH better…

Supermarkets are a special breed. There are those that provide all your basic culinary /​household needs in an atmosphere that’s clean and neatly presented. And then there are those other supermarkets that are chaotic, disorganized and with employees that are nowhere to be found. Luckily, Wegman’s is represented in the former, as their operations and management represent the foundation on how all supermarkets should operate.
What’s so great about Wegman’s?
— The atmosphere: Tranquil, calm, and soothing are three terms used to describe the décor at Wegman’s. The carefully selected color scheme of dark brown derived from the exposed brick is enhanced by the subtle tungsten lighting. Perhaps this is a ploy by Wegman’s to help ease the feeling of buyer’s remorse when going slightly over budget.
Neveretheless, the serene ambiance allows for customers to shop gracefully and without chaotic burden.
— Organized, neat, and clean: Products are frequently organized and well displayed. Any clean up requirements are addressed immediately.
— Friendly customer service: Employees are at haste to help customers locate items within the premises. On many occasions, rebuttal questions were asked when requesting specific items.
— Sales: Frequent and abundant. Wegman’s offers weekly specials to allow for the overturn of inventory and allowing customers to stack up on low perishable essentials.
— On-​site dry cleaning: Avoid having to drive to two different locations. Wegman’s offers on site drop off dry cleaning.
— The food court: With stations ranging from sandwiches, chinese, sushi, carver’s station, and pizza, Wegman’s provides an excellent location to pick up a quick lunch prior to conducting one’s grocery purchases.
Simply put… The remarkable displays and organization will catch the eye of any individual. Wegman’s truly sets the standard on how supermarket operations should be coonducted.

I used to work here. It’s a nice store. The food is excellent. Wegman’s subs are some of the best you will ever eat.
On a personal level, the customers treated me wonderfully, and most of the employees were great to work with too — some of the best people I met. On the other hand, some of the Front End employees were like a glorified high school clique, and it was not pleasant at all. There was some illegal stuff going on (slave labour tactics when they didn’t like you, and old ladies were not spared this awful treatment), there were a few things they did to me and others that some people would have sued for. They got lucky but Karma comes around and it’ll come back to them, that’s how it works. But this review is supposed to be about the food and that is what I’m going to focus on now.
The Chinese food is bland at best. Go around the corner — Golden Wok behind Tops is the best Chinese for thousands of miles. The Olive Bar is good! The Subs here get a 4 and the Sushi is decent too, but overall it gets a 3 for the substandard Pizza and substandard Chinese. And when I say substandard, I don’t mean, of the same standard as the subs, because if I did, then it would get a 4. The employees working in most of the store get a ⁶⁄₅ and I love them. Some of the employees on the front end and some of the bosses, are excluded from that warm appraisal.

Café section: I give it four stars. The food is decent, but there is not as large of a variety as there is at the Wegmans on Alberta Drive in Amherst. The salad bar is small and it never seems to be full — there are a lot of empty spots whenever I go there around lunch or dinner time. Also, the chinese food is bland. If you want good chinese food, go to Red Pepper on Maple Rd. instead.
Groceries: I give it four-​and-​a-​half stars. I love the variety at Wegmans, and the Wegmans brand products are always very good. The only thing that irritates me about the store is that the layout is constantly changing. It took me 20 min. to find canned pumpkin last night, and there wasn’t an employee to ask in sight. Other than that, I love shopping there and I always seems to be great new products and food to try.

Okay, I haven’t been to this Wegmans since I left school, but oh how I loved it here!
This supermarket fed me throughout my four years at college. It was huge and had everything. Sometimes, I would just come here really late at night to avoid the crush…
And, their subs on the freshly baked seeded bread were ginormous — enough for two or three meals. I miss those.
I’ve visited other Wegmans, but this one was and still is my favorite…
