I've lived in Rochester for 6 years now & grew up in Troy, but somehow have never been to the…read moreDowntown Rochester Farmers' Market until this summer & boy have I been missing out! I have been checking out all of the farmers' markets in the SE Michigan area this summer, and while Eastern Market will always be the best, I am thoroughly impressed with the Rochester Farmers' Market! It definitely exceeded my expectations & I'm kicking myself for only now realizing what a gem I have in my own backyard! There are an impressive number of vendors every single time you go. I wasn't expecting nearly this many, and I like that it's almost an equal blend of regular vendors & rotating vendors! The farmers' market is located in just a standard size parking lot, but it still contains enough room for a vast selection of vendors, and probably most importantly several produce vendors. Competition is healthy, especially when it comes to veggies & fruits I believe, because it doesn't allow any one vendor to create a monopoly over it. My pro tip is to always do a lap throughout the entire market first to scope out what vendors are here and selling what produce at what prices before you start buying! Additionally, a big pro tip especially for Rochester Farmers' Market is to get there EARLY! This market closes at 1 pm, which I feel like is uniquely early, and that basically means that things sell out FAST, especially from one-off vendors. If you get there after 11, you can almost guarantee that some of the things you might've wanted to pick up will be sold out or slim pickings. Sometimes it's hard for me to wake up because all I want to do is sleep in at the start of the weekend, but it's worth it for this market! What makes the Rochester Farmers' Market extra special is that they allow dogs & they always have live music! It really puts you in a great mood & sets the tone for a wonderful Saturday morning outside, supporting hard working people & small businesses, interacting with just the loveliest vendors around, and getting to dog watch all the cute dogs that come through. Vibes all around :)

Visiting from California thought I had landed in some third world country, although that isn't even a fair comparison. I have experienced many third world country grocery stores that put this place to shame. Whole Foods should be ashamed to have such a horrendous store in their portfolio. Is this where Whole Foods is going? If it is, I'll steer clear, thank you very much. Literally half the items I went specifically to Whole Foods for were wiped out, and the store is disorganized with boxes of stuff strewn all around the place. And so many empty shelves. We are certainly in trouble if this is an example of where this country, or at least Michigan, is going. Simply horrible and upsetting to see.

They are super patient and can make the food right on the spot. Food/price: The food is pretty good for the quantity and quality. The price did go up from the previous menu but makes sense during these times. Last time I checked the kabob is 1.50 each for 10 of them (the deal was a little confusing for me so I did not look into it). I would have to say that you NEED to buy the hummus, garlic, and cucumber dip for the bread or you will miss out! Audience: The audience is good for families and they have an amazing catering option.

They have a great menu of made to order hot items including kafta kabob and pita sandwiches. You can either call in your order and have it ready when you arrive or place your order at the back counter and shop while you wait. Everything from the grill/deli has been fresh, delicious and worthy of return visits. I recommend this place- yes. I wound up on this side of town and seen this market. It wasn't on Yelp so I quickly added it. I was hesitant to go in, as I wasn't sure what it had to offer. But my kids noted the pita bread sign in the window and we're set to get some, so I figured I'd go in and see they actually made fresh pita on site. Sure enough they did! 5/$1 like they place I frequent near my house. The gentleman was pulling the hot pita bread out as I stood there and bagged up my pieces. They also had fresh made meat, spinach and cheese pies for only $1 each. What a deal! I grabbed 2 spinach and 2 meat to enjoy later at home. I walked over to the produce section and it was nicely organized. The fruits and veggies looked good and fairly priced from what I quickly looked at. I was happy to see my tiny lemons were plentiful and even a better deal then what I usually pay. They were 8/$1, my local place sells them 7/$1. The store was very large and similar to other Mediterranean markets. It was clean and organized, from the walk through I did that day. The 4 fresh made pies were delicious- I'd definitely buy them again! I had a bag full of goodies for only $5.60 and I was a happy customer. I'd definitely return if I ever end up near it again.

They have large assortment of nuts and coffee, which is really pricey but at least you get to see and taste the product before you make the huge purchase. Think of them as a more of an upscale Aldi. Their produce looks great. Better than most supermarkets in the metro Detroit area. You'll often find that they even have better prices than Meijer on some occasions. The self serve peanut butter station is just genius. You get to control how much YOU want. You don't have to buy a whole jar if you're not a big peanut butter eater. Same with honey and maple syrup. Although it would be extremely important if they could label the origins of their products. I'd be reluctant to say that their consumers have the right to know if they're buying Asian products.
