Instead of going to my usual markets, I decided to shop at Publix today. The last couple of times,…read moreit was always crowded and more of a hassle to shop, but today it was quite pleasant. This store has great selections to make your grocery shopping experience enjoyable. I also ended up finding items that I haven't seen in some of the other locations I normally shop in, which was a great deal for me! I will say that making this trip was worth it. It was clean, items were on the shelves neatly, and customer service was great. I will make this one of my locations to shop more frequently!

At first I didn't think they had them cause I didn't see them but then, sitting on the shelf was the last box of two cannolis. I was BEYOND happy!!! I they taste so d**n good!!

I definitely enjoyed eating these again and would recommend trying them if you haven't already.

The Marketplace offers a combination of hard-to-find ethnic cabinet items with a few common American brands sprinkled in. In addition to frozen, shelf stable, and fresh meats and dairy the store also has a hot bar. I did not try anything but if the smell is any indication of the taste, the hot bar is sure to not disappoint. Can't say that WFM will serve as my primary grocery store but I will keep it in mind for hard to find items.

I really love the vibe of this place. Billed as your neighborhood grocery store, It does have a…read morevery personal feel to it. Two staffers greeted me as soon as I entered and told me all about who they are and what they're looking to do, which I found extremely helpful. As I perused the shelves I found some really cool grocery items, from everyday needs and wants like milks, fruit and household supplies and treats, Uncle Willie's has it covered. I also love the layout. This is the first full week that they're open so some things are in flux, but I'm feeling confident that this will be a go-to spot.

Trader Joe's always seemed to be busy, so I wasn't surprised. Plus, I can't see why no one wouldn't want to shop here. This store is simply amazing! I enjoy their selections of wine, produce, and plenty of items to keep your coffee bar filled among other unique finds! You name it, they have it. My plan was to take pictures, but I got so caught up with the ooh and awes I was steadily tossing items in my buggy! So, if you're looking for a place to shop to gather ideas on dishes to prepare for you and your family, run over to Trader Joe's, and I mean run before they sell out! I know I am:) This location was clean, and customer service was exceptional. I will continue shopping here, and I highly recommend.

I love Rosewood Market, and it's really a staple of the local community! I love shopping here due…read moreto the fact that the vast majority of items are locally and freshly made, making it easier to support state farmers and local businesses, and ensuring that your produce wasn't sitting in the back of a truck for weeks before you buy it. They also have a lot of niche items that you can't find at your big-box stores, making it great for specialty-product lovers (in my case, coffee!) like myself! My only gripe, and the reason for four (4) instead of five (5) stars, is that it's VERY expensive. Let me reiterate that I like to support local businesses, and I completely understand that items are not going to be quite as cheap as the major grocery chains; but, some of the products are so expensive that I can't justify spending that much money on them. As such, I can only go to Rosewood Market to buy an item or two, and can't shop there as much as I'd like to. Anyhow, I do love Rosewood Market, and would encourage everyone to at least stop in!

Just moved back to SC and was looking for a natural market with a mix of healthy options. I really…read moreenjoyed exploring Rosewood market, there was so much stuff that impressed me. It's such a cute shop located in downtown Columbia. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. They have so many alternative food options and herbs to choose from. There was a wall of some of the best herbs out there and their vitamin/supplements section had so many different and rare options that you don't normally see in stores. They also sell local items which is always nice to see and a preference for me when shopping. There is also a hot food section with some really delicious options. Perfect for a quick lunch break. I tried the vegan meatballs which were made with pea protein and were so delicious. They had the perfect meatball texture, seasoned really well, and the sauce that came on it was so good. You also get 3 sides and a house-made sauce, so I choose spaghetti squash, potatoes, and broccoli with the spicy mayo sriracha as my sauce. All the sides had really light flavors in terms of seasoning, but were all still really good. The sauce was also really good. They really fill your plates up so you definitely get more bang for your buck. They provide an outside seating area as well as utensils so you can eat and enjoy your food. Don't skip the desserts by the deli, there were so delicious options that provided gluten free and some vegan treats. I also saw that they offer free yoga every Sunday at 2pm and Wednesdays at 6pm! I will definitely be by for yoga and back to shop more and try more of the deli meals!

Amazon Counter: Delivery…read more I am so glad that you can have your Amazon packages delivered here for pickup! At my apartment complex, we have an Amazon hub, but there have been many times they would deliver the item to your door instead. Due to me not being home often, I decided to just have them picked up from this location. Glad I get that option! The customer service here is always pleasant and friendly. This is a great alternative for your Amazon packages if you're not going to be home the day of your delivery.

Um, they are f@#$ing BAGS that are left at our front door, no one has EVER asked us to ACCEPT any deliveries from Whole Foods, so REFUSED? HUH? WTF? Went to amazon.com, asked Alexa what happened. No help whatsoever. Sent me a Customer Service chatbot, which, yeah, Alexa is too. Again, WTF?! CS chatbot could do absolutely nothing and couldn't even provide me with the capability to detail what the actual problem was. Call Whole Foods and actually got a f@!#ing human. She had the balls to tell me that I had to find out from Amazon what the problem was. I totally lost my cool, and she hung up on me. If there were any God d@#$ alternatives, I'd use them, but there aren't. We have been getting almost weekly Whole Foods deliveries from amazon.com since the beginning of Covid, so, what, 2019?! This is the first time this has ever happened, and absolutely the WORST F@#$ING CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER, EVER, EVER ENCOUNTERED.

As a coffee aficionado, I loved the row of unique coffee dispensers that they had, as well as the awesome station of samples that they offered. Even though I'm past that point in my life, I also loved their selection of candy dispensers, which made me feel like a kid again for a few minutes. Finally, I loved their selection of local beers, fresh hot food, seafood, breads & bagels, etc. Like I said, they really seemed to take the word "fresh" to heart, and it didn't feel like a marketing gimmick. My one (1) complaint is that the store was literally freezing! I didn't bring a jacket because I went during the middle of summer, but I had to leave early because I was so cold. I understand that everything was fresh, but they should've turned the temperature up at least a couple of degrees! Other than that, I loved it, and would highly recommend it!

I briefly explained my situation. Ray was very patient, fully listening to what l was saying, and then provided his input.

Their facilities are clean and well organized, which makes it a pleasant shopping experience. They also have mini sections within the store that specializes in a certain area like a bakery, seafood, meats, deli, and even a small bar with an area to lounge out! Pretty awesome. Their customer service has always been top notch, super friendly attitude towards their shoppers. I personally enjoy their bakery goods; recommend the cinnamon buns. They usually have it for $7.99 and just pop it in the microwave for 20 seconds and it's so good! The one thing I'm not a fan of is their sushi selection. They got a small section of daily made sushi, but they can do better with the variety and selection choices. Overall, fun and thriving place to shop your groceries. Definitely will continue to do business here!

This is one of those full size stores cosplaying as a "little grocery in the middle of Appalachia". I was cross when my husband and I walked in. I don't like gimmicks. Give me a store with crisp, straight aisles and mind numbing florescent lighting. No frills! We just needed some decent coffee. I love my mother and father in law, but their coffee is clear enough to see through. I glanced around. Hmm. Lots of interesting little bottles of juice. That's kinda neat. Another glance. A beautiful display of flowers and square mylar balloons. I love square mylar balloons. Alright, okay. We ventured further. Huh. Coffee beans with the type and flavor handwritten on the bags. That's kind of endearing. A local shopper told us the "Bourbon Pecan Torte" flavor was her favorite. (She pronounced it PEE-can, which was a treat. If I had a penny for each time someone corrected me with pah-CAHN, I could summer in Newport.) We decided on the pecan and a second bag of eggnog flavor. We ground the beans in the store. How quaint! As we headed toward the dairy section, I noticed their meat and seafood looked rather nice. There were people making sausage. Actual, real, hand ground sausage in its own area. I refused to say it outloud, but in my head, I thought, "That's the way to do it." We moved on and retrieved a bottle of Stōk refrigerated coffee and a container of half & half. You can never have too much coffee. This place ain't so bad. It was when we were headed to the register that I accidentally let out a squeal. Displayed in all its glory was a tin of the Royal Dansk, limited edition, winter cookie collection...as rare as a Fabergé brooch. I walked into Lowes Foods with a chip on my shoulder. I left with a smile.
