    Cheesesteak
    Kimi S.

    I am so happy that a friend tipped us off to this tiny little corner specialty market right outside of Middleburg. It was the perfect spot to satiate our hunger after peach picking at nearby Hollin Farms! It looks like they are mostly operating in a curbside takeout manner, but since we were in the midst of a mini road trip we opted to carryout and sit in the private back patio of their sister wine shop next door. There was only one other family there when we arrived but they were finishing up so we had the whole spot to ourselves. Our children were over the moon to be able to get their wiggles out and run around in the gated porch. The market offers several prepared in-house hot sandwiches, coffee, pastries, and prepared groceries. I went for their burger while my husband drooled over their steak and cheese sandwich. My daughter wasn't a fan of the chicken tenders ("too spicy" aka, it had salt and pepper on it) but I bulldozed my way through them and was a huge fan. It was like grown up Chick-fil-a! She loved the extra crispy fries though. This was our first time dining out in any type of capacity since the pandemic started and we felt very happy and safe on the private porch (we also came in with our own clorox wipes to sanitize everything before sitting down). Thank you to The Market at Bluewater Kitchen for making our big adventure out so special and memorable.

    Curbside pick up, impromptu picnic

    We ordered curbside for an impromptu picnic and the service and food was just absolutely perfect and accommodating! My husband is Vegan so I asked them to come up with a little lunch platter for him. They chose a black eyed pea salad with gorgeous and huge asparagus to top it, a side of fries without the parmigiana and raspberries which complemented the entire meal nicely! I had their beautiful bacon, cheeseburger cooked to perfection, I love my temperature to be rare. The burger was flavorful, the bun was so perfect, toasty and thin but the perfect ratio to hold everything together and it never got soggy. The fries are delicious! This is one of my top 10 now and we can't wait to go back! We especially look forward to being able to come inside to shop and perhaps eat outside on their cute patio!

    We visit the Middleburg/Upperville area a LOT and have driven past Bluewater many times, but never stopped in... So, while in the area, visiting a winery where we're members, we decided to place an order for the 4 of us for lunch from Bluewater to bring to the winery. Placing the order was very easy, I used the phone, rather than email and gave my credit card, which they charged prior to my arrival. The food was actually ready within a minute of the specific time I asked it to be ready for pickup! Which we were happy about, as we were ensured a "fresh" meal!! The place is quaint and nicely laid out with lots of local and artisan foods... most of which were pre-packaged. They have dairy and meats as well, all farm fresh! The ladies working on the day we went were very friendly and helpful. The food we picked up looked really good, especially for "take out food!" Overall, we really enjoyed the chicken sandwich, though it wasn't spicy at all. The fries that came with it were REALLY good; I think they were twice-fried and they were covered with parsley - YUM! The Superfood Salad was good, but about ¼ of the lettuce was wilted and my wife wasn't to thrilled with that, but she did like the overall salad and the salmon preparation too. The shrimp & grits were pretty good. The grilled cheese was decent, but the tomato soup that came with it was too acidic and wasn't eaten at all... it looked good, but wasn't palatable. Overall, this was a decent visit and we'll most definitely stop in again for carryout or perhaps a sandwich to eat at their outdoor tables. Prices are fair, especially for local/farm-to-table eats.

    a burger and french fries

    I've been dying to try the Market at Bluewater Kitchen, and been a very active follower on Instagram. The golden opportunity to visit came yesterday, and this neighborhood purveyor of fresh seafood, foodie groceries, and gourmet hot and prepared foods didn't disappoint. My seared salmon sandwich was incredible. I gobbled it up, relishing every bite, but working quicker than my usual slow-eating self to ensure I could enjoy everything while still very warm/fresh. The seared salmon was prepared perfectly and sandwiched (haha) between two slices of toasted and buttered brioche. The sauce was a mayo/aioli that complimented the flavors of the buttery salmon very well. The chef did something that I truly didn't expect, that took this up a notch, though--seaweed salad (the kind you get at sushi restaurants) was the main topping! That was so genius. The seaweed salad brought everything together and added color, interest, and more. The accompanying fries were well-seasoned, herbaceous with just the right amount of salt. My husband also praised the fries and really enjoyed his chicken sandwich. Diners can grab prepared or cooked meals and enjoy al fresco, either in front of their market or in the back patio of their seafood store (housed in a separate building). The aforementioned patio was very comfortable and relaxing. I have been inclined to give more five-star reviews lately, but I also believe all those businesses truly deserved. For the Market at Bluewater Kitchen, I'd assign more than five stars if I could! So delicious. Beautiful shop. Great customer service (friendly from the moment you enter, helpful answering questions, and bring you your orders if dining in). I am such a fan.

    This place is awesome! After a trip to Delaplane Cellars, we stopped here for a quick bite to eat. The place was clean, well organized, and all the prepared foods/baked goods looked fresh. The workers were attentive and friendly, offering some great suggestions and complimenting our Halloween costumes. We opted for hot orders: super duper salad, chicken sandwich, and the po boy. None of us were disappointed. The food was hot and fresh, seasoned to perfection, and presented beautifully. The French fries were crispy and salted well. The shrimp is grilled, and I loved that it was served on a buttered brioche bun rather than a traditional bready bun. I could actually taste the shrimp rather than knawing through the bread. The oatmeal creme cookies: just get them. Great snack for the road home, and we're still munching on them at home. Soft and chewy. We sat outside at the winery next door, which has a bathroom and plenty of seating options. Great spot that will make us city-dwellers reconsider moving out to the beautiful rolling hills of Virginia.

Great classic diner vibe. First and foremost the service was incredible. Kendra was our server. She was very attentive and super friendly. She constantly checked in on us and was just a delight. We went right for food and skipped apps and drinks. Ordered the steak salad (medium rare) that was perfectly cooked. The dressing was tasty too. Also ordered the chicken club which came with fries. The fries were good. The sandwich was really tasty! Chicken seasoned to perfection and with the bacon, avocado, and cheese it was the perfect balance of flavors working together. The bread was buttery and toasted. Delicious. We were traveling and stopped here. There is a 6% county tax on tour tab called 'restaurant tax' which is in addition to the other taxes. Just FYI. Overall a great place to grab some amazing food with pretty fabulous service. Would go again!

I have never had a long wait in the checkout line. Maybe one or two customers were ahead of me in the checkout line but it didn't take long for me to checkout, because it always goes fast. Cashiers have always been friendly and helpful. The only problem with Wegmans is their enormous size inside their store. From produce to cold boxes is a long walk for an old man like me and sometimes I think I may have to show my passport. Back to their groceries. I am amazed at the freshness, quantity, and variety of their produce. It stays the same for their other grocery items too. Whatever strange grocery item you are seeking, seek it at Wegmans and you should find it. The store has always been clean and a well lighted place. Next time you need some groceries, try Wegmans.

Clean, intuitively laid out, and well stocked, I appreciate the interior environment as a pleasing place to shop. The location is fantastic, sharing a plaza with Old Navy, Five Below, Dick's and Ross. YES: vegan friendly
