They're one of the most expensive grocery stores in Columbia but somehow can't manage to keep fresh produce from molding and wilting on their shelves.

I was a fervent Root Cellar-er when they were under the old owners and when they were located on…read moreBroadway (more on that later), but now it's on a whole 'nother level. No, literally, they have more than one level to the store. What's going on? Why can't they just stay in that basement place and call it good? Well, this new venue is bigger, and the old owner(s) also owned the Broadway Brewery, and the rumor is they are going to expand that restaurant into the basement place where they old Root Cellar was located. Plus, this new place has much more panache, and since the new downtown farmer's market started on Sundays, this new location hooks them into that whole casbah (or would it be a souk?). Anyhow, there are things in the works. Some of the things in the works: Free wi-fi for the internet deficient. There is a loading dock that they want to turn into a stage for live music acts, and the audience can hunker down in the parking lot and listen al fresco. They've already installed a cooler in the loading dock deck, where they might start stocking beer and wine and such. I told them to install some old speakers and a turntable and an amp, and I would provide a mess of vinyl, and that would attract the neo-retro folks who dig that stuff. Who knows. From the loading dock deck, you can saunter down a few stairs into a long room with a huge wooden bar, end-capped with a deli counter. So the plan is, to have sandwiches and stuff, as well as coffee, tea, etc. Perhaps they will give Uprise a run for their money? I say they should aim for a different consumer niche, since Uprise has pretty much locked-in the hipster crowd, they need to go for the blue collar crowd who appreciate all that local food/music stuff. Who knows? This could usher in a critical mass for the new North Village Arts District. Maybe it will give the "District" a run for their money. The "District" being the semi-mafioso oligarchs who control the downtown area, and who took out the benches from the sidewalks because unseemly folks were sitting in them. I guess they installed them, so they can take them out, but geez, it sounds a little draconian. For all I know the NVA District folks will do the same thing, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Anyhow, here is a good article on their moving, and some nice photos: http://www.columbiamissourian.com/stories/2011/06/20/root-cellar-moves-north-village-arts-district/ In addition, they have a CSA, where you can get a box of local veggies and fruits and stuff for like $30 or so. They give you a little print out with info on where everything came from, and some recipes that include some of the foods. You pay by the week, but to guarantee a box, you should sign up. The new owners are real nice, and if you are looking for suggestions on what is good or interesting, they are very helpful.

I did my own research, then a staff member explained the differences in brands, and forms (i.e. drops vs. tablet) to help me make the best purchases. They also have a store brand of most vitamins/supplements that are the same as other store prices - but I don't have to worry about the ingredients. Right across the street from Stephens Park, I bring my grandsons in to choose snacks for a park picnic. I can relax in knowing I am not going to have to say no due to it not being healthy. The bulk foods section in my personal favorite - for pennies I can try a new spice :) They have another location with a bit larger selection, but Broadway store can always get it there with a phone call!

That's fine, it happens, I should have looked at my receipt before I left. So I call them and I was told I must return to the store to get the credit. Most businesses can do this by e-mail or over the phone, but okay. Not thrilled about this, but I went. When I arrived, I was told there were no numbers in their store jargon that I do not understand. Then they explained to me that I will need to bring all the items back, obtain a refund and then have it recharged. Well, the items have been consumed, not going to happen. I let the person know that was ridiculous. So they proceeded to credit back the tax that should not have been on the receipt in the first place all with zero friendliness on the part of Gerbes staff. Clearly staff are not well trained. I will be watching you closer from now on or not visit at all.
