Wow - I was so glad they had a Wegmans in VA. I had been to one in Buffalo NY before. I wish they…read morehad one in San Diego CA. Definitely a top notch grocery store. Large and plenty of options. They have several prepared food options inside too, from a pizza place, to sushi, to bowls, desserts, etc. I tried one of their signature BBQ chicken bowls special $10 bowls, and a $5 slice of their pizza with blush sauce, spinach & sausage. The pizza slice was very large, delicious, filling and I would try it again. The BBQ chicken bowl was tasty, worth $10, would definitely get it again.

I am highly disappointed with the lack of quality control and staff training at the Charlottesville…read moreWegmans after my recent visit. I bought sliced mortadella for a dinner party charcuterie board, only to find the deli had sliced it with the plastic casing still left on the meat. This is a major oversight and embarrassing to serve to guests. Furthermore, every piece of produce I bought spoiled completely within 14 hours.To make matters worse, the cheese department staff is unknowledgeable. As a French native, I was shocked when an employee incorrectly insisted that Pave d'Affinois is just called a Brie. Wegmans charges premium prices, but between the rotting produce, negligent deli slicing, and untrained staff, the value is simply not there anymore. Management needs to fix these issues immediately.

Or just pay extra for a quality and healthier alternative? I absolutely recommend their Araucana sandwich. I totally recommend this place because they get their meats and produce from local farms such as, Polyface, Free Union, Wolf Creek Farm, just to name a few. I really get excited when I see these brands because I have been to these farms and I liked how the animals were raised. I usually buy the frozen meats and bones for my homemade broth. I know it's expensive...but I only get one body and one life... Just avoid the chips and other snacks, you can get it cheaper somewhere else.

Caution: Sales Associates in this store treat customers like thieves…read more The Primo water bottle collection site in front of the store has been broken for at least 5 years. When you return empty bottles, the machine does NOT provide a return ticket. On several occasions, my husband has been asked by the lead Sales Associate for his exchange ticket. We have briefly interacted with this lovely woman for years; however, the fact is she knows the Primo machine does not provide exchange tickets when she's asking you for the ticket. On another occasion, a younger Sales Associate did the same thing and then told my husband they are trying to make sure people are being honest. We cannot drink our well water and purchase Primo exchange bottles at Food Lion routinely. To avoid this accusatory encounter, I have now resorted to self-checkout. To do so, simply search for the product by typing "Primo" and select the 5 gallon exchange. The lead Sales Associate will still give judgmental looks, but she can't do anything about self-checkout personal accountability. The honor system does not work if you're going to routinely accuse your customer base of theft. Fix the Primo exchange machine and then you will fix the problem.

The store was well-organized and clean, and we found everything that we intended to buy. As with our home Food Lion, I'd love to see a bigger variety of fresh fruits and vegetables ... nonetheless, what was there was fresh. The check-out clerk was friendly and efficient; products went through at their correct prices. Parking was free and plentiful, and the small shopping center where it's located is easy to access as there is a traffic light off Rte. 33.
