The service was great and I was able to find and purchase the items I came to the store to purchaseread more

I love a good Asian market. This one has been on my list for sometime now. It is smaller than the…read moreother ones in the surrounding area but still has a lot of good stuff. The parking area is large and offers Plenty of parking. It definitely has that fishy smell when you first walk in, but feel that means you can tell the fish is fresh. They have everything from rice to sauces and unique fruits and vegetables, that I haven't seen anywhere else. I enjoyed walking around, looking at everything and the prices were really good. The ice cream near the check out register was my favorite find!

Parking was plentiful in the plaza. Once you walk in, you get that Asian market odor lol. There's a very clean, organized, and with lots of variety fish counter. I definitely would buy my seafood there. There were produce with a variety of different fruits and veggies that you can't find in your typical grocery store; I purchased some rambutan on this visit. There were seasonings, a small selection of noodles, and other products. It's not just Asian items but Latin, Caribbean, African, and more. There were dairy products and a bunch of snacks too. Service was good and it wasn't too crowded in there. Overall, a good spot to get some ethnic food items.

The dessert is ube ice cream, jackfruit, bunch of different jelly's, coconut, ube jam, and shaved ice. Haven't ate this in so long it was delicious. I'm not a fan with majority of the jelly color ones. I should have told them not to add every single one. The flavor is delicious and can't wait to go back to eat again.

You have your Slush Puppies and milk shake machine, which are fun surprises although not necessarily unexpected. But then you have all the personal touches that make it clear they have their local customer in mind. On the door, it lets you know they sell school supplies. They have a cooler with locally made Avery's soda. The area designation signs are handmade. They have frozen homemade food, including pizza! There's homemade bakery items and cooler goods, including fresh muesli. How cool is that? But even more amazing, the owner makes spices, including rubs and curry powder. You'll never find those exact items anywhere else! It's an amazing store, and the cashier was so friendly and fun to talk to. I'm jealous of what you have West Avon!

We'll definitely come in again on future visits to Blue Back Square!

But if you walk to the far left side of the market in search of the restrooms, you'll see a sign and a downward staircase that will bring you here. It carries food items from Spain, Italy, and the Mediterranean area. Lots of canned fish, pasta, oils, vinegars, crackers, sauces, olives , meats and cheese and the like. It reminded me a lot of the little grocery store inside the old Costa Del Sol restaurant. There were some freebie cheese and cracker samples, and a sweet and friendly young lady there to greet us. We were the only one in the store, and I sure hope the market adds The Grocer to their website and list of vendors to encourage more customers to visit. Surprising to us, was that the pricing was very reasonable!! We picked up a jar of fig jam for $6.49 and a big 25 ounce jar of Fra Diavlo sauce for $4.99. I am certain that every future trip we make to the Parkville Market will end with a walk down that staircase into the Grocer. Hope to see you there !

The Grocer, now upstairs at Parkville Market, is a very small specialty food market. They have…read morespecialty food items such as thin-sliced Iberico Chorizo, "intensely" flavored Spanish Olive Oil, Pure Vermont Maple Syrup, chocolate, black rice, fresh pasta, vinegars, cheese, jarred olives and peppers and splurge beverages. The Grocer is too small to provide a one stop shopping experience. Rather, you're more likely to go there when you're already at the Market and you need a few high end items for guests or niche home cooking. Example, if you're cooking a Spanish-themed meal and you want better sherry vinegar and Spanish olive oil than you can buy at your near home grocery, you can get that at the Parkville Market Grocer. That can be very convenient.
