Always a good, healthy experience here, including customer service. I didnt find the variety of seasonings in bags that they used to carry, but I did find some new jellies/jams to try in the pictures. I love making my jams/jellies, etc. from April to Fall when fruits and veggies are in season and plentiful.
Food is fresh and pretty good. Cashiers make up for slow Deli and meat service. A little over - priced. But, usually the quality is worth it.
Beautiful store with unique options. Beautiful flower selection and decent prices. The pricing for the food can be expensive and I wouldnt do my normal grocery shopping here but I like the unique finds. The employees are very nice and friendly.
Probably my favorite grocery store! More like a specialty store with fantastic desserts, huge selection of fresh produce and many other unique items in their bakery and deli. Also, their package meals for Valentines Day, Mothers Day, summer picnics and many others are incredible!
A bit pricey, but wonderful choices. I shop on Tuesdays to get their $2.99 specials on chicken beast and hamburger meats! Clean and very helpful workers! They have a wonderful deli and bakery.
Fresh Market was splendid as always. I love their meat department. The butchers are friendly and quality of meat and seafood does not disappoint. I Seared Tuna tonight. It was frozen when I bought it. YouTube Chef said dont use frozen, guess what? Frozen was delightful. Oh and the dark meat ground turkey makes wonderful burgers.( If grilling they need extra support.)
This is the place to go for super good food, especially fruits, veggies, and their deli food selections. A little pricer than Kroger etc, but worth it. Store is always clean and nicely organized. I shop here when I want something special..the desserts are fantastic!
Great place to find items that regularstores dont carry. Very clean and very nice people work there!!
If you are looking for freshly prepared goods to bring home, this is definitly the place. Great selection of wines and craft beer too. Ive always found the layout of Fresh Markets kinda odd, but it also lets you get exactly what you want real fast if its a dry good, and then kinda freely browse if its like a deli meat or prepared food. Id say its like the grocery store for grabbing a special meal at home or stuff to take to a party or cookout.
I truly hate that I only gave Fresh Market 3 star rating based on a very RUDE cashier. We were standing near the opening where you put your buggy for them to start ringing things up & she took her hand and shook it at us & told us to move. So we backed out of her line went to another line.
Love the sushi and all of made fresh pasta salads. The coconut shrimp is so yummy!
Great place to get your food. Great place to shop real clean and friendly people here.
I cant deny they do have the best cuts of meats and I dont mind paying. But, unless you are rich, stay away. Outrageous prices on everything ****!!!!
I used to love their prepared foods selectionfor a quick dinner fox on the way home, but was sadly underwhelmed and left without buying anything. The quality has gone downhill in the last year and a half. Probably wont be back
Lots of variety and fresh food and wine choices. Seemed dimly lit (nuance?) and crowded spacing for a market. Definitely well patronized.
I came from Martinsville VirginiaTo The Fresh Market in RoanokeTo get me a chicken Caesar wrapBecause I love the sandwiches there and the wrap was dry and the chicken was over cooked and I took 2 bites out of the sandwich and it was very disappointing...
Shopping in the meat section is like shopping in a candy store. So much to choose from and its fresh.
Generally I really like The Fresh Market even though theyre owned by Kroger.But lately when Ive gone in on weekend evenings I can hardly find anyone to help me at the meat counter. I stood there for a good 8 minutes waiting and saw a person in the back behind the glass and tried to get his attention to get some assistance. He looked up at me several times and though I tried to get him to come out he kept doing whatever he was doing. This has happened several times and each time I had to go to the deli counter and have them find someone and a couple of times it was the manager who came and assisted me. Not sure what is going on there these days but until about a month and a half ago I was getting great service at the meat counter but now now. I hope this isnt Krogers way of doing things filtering into Fresh Market. 😔
The Fresh Market at Towers Mall on Colonial Avenue is a whole earth supermarket like Earth Fare. The meats and vegetables are fresh and beautiful. Theres seafood, bakery goods, freshly ground coffee, a wonderful deli, wine, beer, all sorts of nuts and also candies.Anything youre looking for from extra virgin olive oil to all sorts of cheeses can be found at Roanokes Fresh Market.Enjoy your visit!
Great organic food I often buy, there.
Fresh produce and a wide variety of prepared food. Price wise is high for quality. Great customer service and knowledgeable staff.
Unbelievable quality. Beautiful atmosphere, exceptional employees.
Good specials. Clean place. Helpful staff.
Pricey as hell but great customer service and lots of gourmet foods
Pricey. But you know that b4 going in. Enjoy looking around even if I dont buy anything.
Never will go again!! Could find anything I wanted and worker was passing by me like I was an inconvenient!! But the cashier was pleasant!! Said she only been there a couple of weeks
Every visit is great. Everyone is so helpful. Their bakery is especially amazing if you need a treat.
In general the store is clean and the people are friendly. The bakery lately has overcooked many of the pastries that I used to make a special trip to get when I have a certain craving. I also wish they would bring back the empire state chocolate cake. My review is based on the past 3 months and literally walking out with an empty basket to due to them not having what I went to get or it was overcooked. I will revisit and update my review if things improve.
Delicious and fresh. Enjoyed everything, breads and deli items are ahhmazing.
Their cakes are why I go. And great meat
Love this place!The selection, among the nicest people in retail...Custom & exotic products you cant find anywhere else.Just know it comes at a co$t.
One of the best fresh and organic food markets,it is Expensive as usual,but worth the visit,As Name Fresh food,fruits and Vegetables are Fresh,Prices are too high but you enjoy every moment,high quality,great Variety carefully selected and cleanliness..get a free coffee samples,then grind it yourself fresh Almond and Peanut butter,for cheese lovers there are best selection,wonderfull Backery and french pastry.Nice friendly staff and good Managers...No WiFi,,free parking
Pricy but delicious food.
I prefer it because its small and not so bright as most stores are. I easily go here before Earthfare for any specialties or etc that Im looking for. Its comfortable at Fresh Market.
A fun shotrpping experience. The layout and quality of meats and prepared dishes were outstanding.
Fresh, flavorful and although its a drive to get there it is well worth it!
Clean and nice market where I did not go for a while.
Fresh Market was my favorite grocery store for many years. Moved on the other side of Roanoke a couple of years ago so hadnt been on that side of town on the regular. Had a little time and wanted a cut of meat that you normally dont find at a Food Lion/Kroger but always had @ Fresh Market. When I went in it was still as friendly and clean as I remembered. Problem was that many of the shelves(meat/fish cases included) were depleted/bare. Also didnt have many of the selections that you would have go to a speciality store or Amazon to get but could normally be found at Fresh Market. Again, the employees were more than helpful, they just couldnt provide what they didnt have access to(in this case skirt steak). Maybe its just the fact that us coming back into an open world has business trying to get back used to live shopping. Will stop by again in the coming weeks to see if it was just an off day.
Love the $5 chicken, pizza and sushi on Thursdays.
The staff is the best Ive ever seen. They are all so very helpful and even thanked me for coming in to the store. The store is clean and the produce was excellent. Its a little pricey, but it looks like they have quality items. A wide assortment of coffees and candies. So glad Roanoke has this store!
Recently purchased what were supposedly prime meats, one filet and one ribeye.. Both were mostly inedible. At $30 and $25 per pound this was unacceptable. Photo attached is part of ribeye leftover. This is latest in many disappointments and I am finished with this store.UPDATE: Managers response below was true to her word. Received a full refund today Upgrade to 3 stars as a result.
Very impressed with this bakery. Fresh products. I had ordered a red velvet cake from honey baked ham and when I went to pick it up...even though I had my confirmation information, they had sold my cake and there were no others. Thankfully, fresh market had one...it was fresher and much better than the honey baked ham cake would have been. Glad it worked out this way but my review of hbh isnt as nice as this review. All I ask is for what I order to be what I get! Fresh market did that!
So, I actually think this place is fantastic. However, you cant see anything in the butcher fridge because of the Covid protocols. So, when I get in line, I feel like I am being rushed because I never have an idea what I want. So, I dont go there. But if you know what you want and what they have, I bet it is five star all the way.
There are definitely more healthy options here than some other grocery stores. The only dissappoiment was in the lack of variety in the prepared foods section. Its a smaller store, so I understand this; though I would have liked to see more items for all dietary needs instead of so many dairy and meat based meals. I ended up finding an orzo salad that was absolutely delicious! So I cant complain too much.Other than that, the staff was great. My cashier, Devin, was super friendly.
Great place and great people and awesome food
Typically a good place to shop. Some times they are out of fresh meats and seafood that you want.
Always Fresh and clean, good and quick service, and the staff is friendly and quick with help; as needed. Experiences with store and staff GREAT..each time.
We live 60 miles away, but its always a treat to visit Fresh Market when were in the area!
Very clean! Tasty bakery and fresh produce. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something similar to Sprouts or Whole Foods!
They have the freshest fruit and veggies.
Excellent higher quality food. Good friendly staff.
So much more than a grocery store....Great place to get breads, meat, deserts, all kinds of different candy, beautiful flowers and plants.... Its a pleasure to shop there..... I just ❤️ it....
Great salmon🙂, no fresh dill🥺
Love this place. Went to get a certain item and it was available for another 45 minutes. The employee allowed me to take care of other business and when I returned the employee had my order ready.
Nice place to shop for food, Very clean
They carry stonewall kitchen products etc!
Best meat, vegetables, and fruit in the Roanoke valley. A little expensive. But very much worth it. We will continue going there for a long time.
Great selection of everything you can imagine. Fresh produce and great selection of meat and seafood!!! The bakery is also amazing!!!!
Great little organic grocery store. Fresh cut meats etc. Friendly staff
Good variety of fresh, organic foods. Love this place.
I really like the crab salad! Its the bomb! All the customers wear mask and the employees are on point. My kinda place😉
Love this place. A piece of heaven. Live in Lewisburg WV, before Silver Spring MD. MISS good food and choices.
Always a wonderful experience! Lots of homemade goodies 😋
Great food and ideas for meals. Great wine! Very clean
A super visit! Had just what I needed and wanted for my moms birthday. The workers were kind and helpful.
Love the products. Usually go there for the meats and fish which is very good!
Over price food thats not really that more fresh than krogers or Walmart.
Grate place the best stakes around
Upscale grocery store with wide selection of great products and produce. Very pleasant place to shop.
Great place for meat and unique food items.
Best place to shop on EBT. Quality groceries. Every time.
Called 3 times to talk to the meat department. They answered the phone and hung it up immediately all 3 times.
I love this store always fresh. Coffee is one of my favorite parts of shopping there...
One of the assistant managers named Jared read me an entire chicken parmesan recipe over the telephone. This went far above and beyond a good service. every time I go to The fresh market I am always treated with respect and their products are second to none!
Staff is always friendly. Store is always clean. They have the BEST coffee. I work at Mission BBQ, so im at Fresh Market getting coffee just about daily. Love the variety.
I want artichokes not pickled hearts not anything else plain old artichokes.
Great bargains I purchased Thursday!
Good stuff but its expensive
We traveled over an hour from Clifton Forge to go here. The vegetable and fruit selection (especially mushrooms) would have been enough but the sake and Narragansett are the real reason for the trip.
The staff is always friendly, and their food is always delicious. Safety is taken very seriously here. Im glad I dont live closer because I would spend far too much here.
Great selection of cooking and baking goods that you just cant find at the other places around here.
Great store nice service always fresh food
The selection is phenomenal, but depending on the item, especially meat and seafood, the prices bring it down a star.
We go for the ground chuck and chicken breast that are on sale on Tuesdays. Parking and navigating the store is a nightmare.
Amazing products
Go shopping there like everything I see
Great place to shop and eat
Nice place to get a treat.
Always clean and very friendly. Had great selection of things kroger n food lion did not have. Esp plant based items.
Good food, especially meats.A little pricey though.
Top notch fresh meat and produce, superb deli, excellent prepared meals. Do be aware that it almost exclusively sells food - not household supplies (though there are a few kitchen supplies available).
This place... Highest prices, grumpy employees, and if you do a curbside pickup you still have to go inside. I only go here if I cant get what I want somewhere else. Their Friday salmon deal, though, thatll get me in the door
Friendly staff ..very helpfull..great food products
Great selection of foods.
Love this store. It is my guilty pleasure so I splurge once in a while. Love the Envy apples and their chicken wings.
Always an excellent selection of fresh foods (produce to deli to meat), a surprisingly good selection of beers and wines, and a relatively full selection (for the store size) of typical things a foodie needs for preparing great food at home.If I had to complain about one thing (because why bother writing a review if you cant add constructive criticism), it would be the excess selection of various olive oils and the relative dearth of different types of oils or vinegars.
The sushi and bakery are great, but that uppity classical music always grates on my nerves, everything is overpriced too, not my favorite store, just going into a grocery store should feel uncomfortable.
Different variety of items you dont see at other stores, But they are rather expensive too so pick your battles.
