Ive tried the oils and vinegars pre-Covid. Lots of fun things to try and it gives you ideas of things to use with different foods. (Mayer Lemon EVOO!) Oils as a garnish or to sauté with, make salad dressings, dip your bread..the list goes on. Thing is with Covid I have no idea if you can try anything? I would say ask.. I buy blind and I just go by a description so... What's nice is they ship and they have a few other locations. If you want to give a gift to someone who loves to cook but not sure what to get them. Come here you can get a bunch of different things or get a prepared box of boxed up oils and etc. Staff is friendly and helpful considering Covid it's not a big place and they will regulate the flow of customers if it gets a bit too much. What's good about this place is where it is, after you go in here depending the time frame you can pop in to Baker Street Bakery for some bread and treats. Check out Salty a lovely boutique store or go to Cafe Sasso, Glen Edith, The Chai Guy or Pittsford Dairy for some drinks and treats. Parking is street or behind the building on Somerton. Give them a whirl.

The staff here are total experts when it comes to helping you find a unique flavor profiles and combinations, and, while I haven't been in during the COVID times, know they have an amazing tasting process during the normal times. I adore their balsamics and am particularly partial to the fig and berry-based bottles. We always have F. Olivers with our Sunday sauce at my parents house - paired with some Wegmans garlic tuscan bread?! Forget it. I always look forward to my next order of oils and balsamics. Stop in if you have yet to, making stops at Salty and Baker Street Bakery in the awesome Somerton plaza. F. Olivers also has a location in Canandaigua. Happy dipping!

For a smaller farmers market, they had a great range of vendors, from fresh produce and meat to plants to food trucks and local vendor favorites (Crust Pie Co, Brian's Kitchen, etc).

But that's changed (or maybe I just misunderstood!), and now anyone can shop here. Prices are a bit higher about $2-$5 more than other grocery stores depending on what you're getting, also know you're supporting a community focused, local business. It's not a huge place, but they've got a solid selection of essentials, and some nice specialty items too. There's even an outdoor area if you want to relax with a snack or a drink. Staff is pleasant, friendly and helpful. They have private parking lot! I'll definitely be back.

In today's world, spices are no longer as hard to find as they once were, from online to local ethnic grocery and beyond, there is so much to try. I really enjoy going into Stuart's and seeing new things that I should try. Getting recommendations from the staff and even, with some flavors, have a chance to smell/taste different offerings. I highly recommend stopping in and giving them a pride. It is a wonderfully calm and clean place with amazing staff and products.

Last week I received an amazing assortment of different spice combinations from Stuart's Spices. They also sent a sample of a rub with the 3 awesome baskets: habanero honey...it's delicious!! I might actually use it as a rub...if there's any left....since I've been sprinkling it in my salads. Mmmmm hmmmm!! Give me some of that hot, salty and sweet goodness to kick things up!! Can't wait to try the middle eastern varieties in my new Tagine that I'm curing right now. If I ever head to the area, I'll definitely visit the store in person. This is a GREAT place to get gifts for anyone on your list that cooks, likes to experiment with flavors/spices...or is just looking to start.

Thank you, Marilla!

This store is like a dream for those of us looking to buy less plastic. Marilla's started with a…read morelocation in Geneva and has recently expanded to the South Wedge. I met Marilla herself, who gave me a tour of the small shop and explained how everything worked. This store carries several types of products. Bulk spices, coffee, tea, and candy; reusable/ecofriendly household products like soap bags and kitchen scrubbers; and big refill tubs of liquid items like face wash, hand soap, shampoo, and the like. They have jars you can purchase, or bring your own jar/container. Either way, the container is weighed and then you are charged for the weight of the product. There are fancier jars to buy for a few dollars, or use one of the recycled jars on the free shelf (they are cleaned and sanitized before being set out). Marilla also accepts clean, clear jars (no label) if you have them to donate. I look forward to refilling some household products here instead of buying one more plastic hand soap bottle or spice jar. Check this place out!

As someone who loves grocery stores, I was excited to shop at my first Tops. I am a Boomer of 70…read morevisiting Rochester for the first time. I have to say I was not impressed with this store. It was quite clean and well lit. Prices were a bit eye-widening. It is difficult to get a feel for this store as I was not able to get a sense of the layout. After exploring the entire store, I left with two donuts and a drink. Truly, the skimpiest buy I've ever made for a first time buying experience.

I like this Tops because I'm a big dairy lover and their discount manager's special section lets me…read moretry ALL the dairy- on far right back of store. I think their produce isn't as great as Wegmans and slightly overpriced. The rest of the dried food section/pantry like things are good. bakery Goods are a little over sugary and cheap tasting. Meat section is ok but also not the best cuts of meat. There's a cute large geriatric population however, which makes this store quite charming to visit for the most part. Produce: Sometimes you get an ok deal but most of their cut fruit, and produce is a little over priced. May as well go to Wegmans to get better fresh things. Consider Walmart and price rite for better variety/price. Dried goods/pantry- carries larger variety of brands compared to Wegmans which has a monopoly. I think this allows buyers to try outside competition more however. There's good and bad. Bakery- unfortunately kinda cheap tasting. lots of conditioners and preservatives for same price as a Wegmans' loaf of bread. the bread just feels like it could be buried underground and survive 5 years later. Baked goods better at Wegmans. Discount dairy. this place wins. For sure. Milk is ok priced- Wegmans has cheapest milk in Rochester. You can find Creme fraiche for example which is hard to find in other places. Candy section- super cheap. lots of junk food here that are cheap. Prepared hot foods- ok as well. Parking lot has ample space but kind run down. Staff are overall ok. Not your cheeriest folks however.

Get my smoothie, check out the grab and go cooler, and learn more about what this great spot has to offer. The bulk of their biz is meal prep and nutrition planning - and they seem to have a strong clientele of Rochesterians. They are conveniently located in the Lac De Ville plaza and I was in and out within five minutes. Everyone was SO kind and helpful, and my shake was really delicious. I am a protein powder SKEPTIC. I think it makes everything taste like diet chalk. I am pleased to report my banana shake did NOT taste like chalk, and I downed the whole thing throughout the course of an afternoon. I am grateful for anything that includes calorie counts these days. As I am aiming to be a bit more mindful about how much I am consuming in a given day (and of what!) this is really helpful. Given that we're home so much, I haven't had an issue making time for meal planning and grocery shopping. When we get back to "normal" and time is taken up by events and other happenings, I would ABSOLUTELY consider doing a meal program through PLN. I look forward to the next time I can stop by, and would recommend for anyone in the area looking for a lighter lunch option.

Very disappointed! Used to be one of our favorite local spots. We probably won't be back. The vibe is off now and no energy in the open kitchen like prior visits.
