Located at the Festival at Manchester Lakes, Amazon Fresh offers a bakery, hot/cold food, as well as your basic grocery items. I have tried their pizza slices, which were awful, as the crust was just thick and literally tasted like cardboard. While I don't do grocery shopping here, I do like their return process - the staff here are pretty efficient and keep the lines moving. Plenty of parking in the large plaza lot. +convenient Amazon returns +efficient staff +avoid the pizza

Amazon Fresh is just the next logical evolution of grocery shopping in the United States. And what I mean by that is for the past 50 years or so, consumers have become increasingly removed from the production (much less the delivery and supply chain) cycle of how food originates from farms and ultimately winds up in grocery store aisles. And when you're ready to pay for your items, there are fewer lanes staffed by people, and more self check-out kiosks for you to bag and pay for your stuff. Once upon a time when America was primarily an agrarian society and a larger percentage of the populace was involved with food production, it was more common to have small local stores where it was likely folks would know the farmer, butcher, or fishmonger who brought their goods to market. And of course, it's nice to wax nostalgic about an idyllic past, but Amazon Fresh represents almost the extreme of a bygone era. Walking into this Amazon Fresh store a few miles from the Franconia Metro station, the place feels almost sterile. Even though there is a cadre of Amazon employees scurrying about their black shirts adorned with the "Amazon Fresh" logo, no one seems particularly happy to be there (very few smiles observed on employees faces), nor were any of the employees eager to engage in any interaction; at least that my was my experience. I was almost run over a few times by this army of Amazon Fresh employees rushing about in the store, since they are focused on quickly assembling orders for pick-up for those time-starved amongst us who rather have other people shop for them. I can only imagine the pressure these workers must face since the task of picking the perfectly ripe avocado, or the best piece of steak, or the freshest loaf of bread has been outsourced via a few clicks on an app. The whole shopping "experience" is designed for convenience and to minimize as much human contact as possible. You can opt for one of the orange colored "traditional" shopping carts and when you're ready, have your items checked out by an ACTUAL LIVE HUMAN - OR - you can use of the high-tech green colored carts which have a variety of sensors which "should" track and keep a running total of items as you place and remove them from your cart. I say "should" keep track, because after logging into the cart using a QR code from my Amazon Mobile app, I perused the aisles of the store and on a few occasions, the sensors kept detected multiple items (such as multiple bags of chips or incorrect amount of produce). The process to modify the amounts on the touch screen on the cart wasn't as intuitive as it should've been and I had to hunt down employees for assistance. This was made all the more frustrating since I spoke with two employees who then had to radio a supervisor for assistance. Not necessarily the seamless easy shopping experience that this place is aiming for. The entire experience at Amazon Fresh wasn't terrible. I had a few Amazon items I needed to return, so instead of driving to the Whole Foods in Springfield, this is a more convenient location. I think it's a bit odd that there is a small area where you can also peruse the latest Kindle and Amazon Fire tablets as well as purchase books if desired, but vertical business integration, right? And because Amazon owns Whole Foods, I did find a few organic items (produce and 365 label items) that were a decent price. But in general, I found most of the items to be as expensive if not more than typical grocery stores like the GIANT (rip-off) and (WAGE)Wegmans. I mean, if I'm doing most of the "work" by using one of these fancy high-tech carts, and bagging my own stuff so as to minimize the need for staff by paying through my Amazon app, shouldn't the groceries be cheaper??? For me, I'll stick with shopping at my Asian grocery stores such as H-Mart, 99 Ranch, or Lotte. Perhaps I'm old skool, but I actually like selecting my own produce and perusing the aisles to see what kind of interesting stuff I can find.

I'm giving them a low rating because I don't see anything special about this place. Yes I have prime (who doesn't in this day and time? Lol) but even with that I don't see that I would come out my way to come shop here. I did like that returns was so easy and my refund came to me quicker than any other place. But...ummmm...other than that I don't see this place being better than a regular Whole Check (I mean Whole Foods...lol) because the prices were the same....extremely overpriced! The deli counter was alright but needed better and more options to choose from. So I guess 3-3 1/2 stars is what I'll give them because other than I guess if you really into tech it's amazing but to a regular everyday shopper like me I'm just not that impressed...

Amazon has done it again! This is the next level of grocery shopping. As an avid shopper, I was very pleased with my experience at Amazon Fresh and encourage other grocers to jump on the wave. As technology rapidly advances, so does our demand for convenience and efficiency. Amazon Fresh offers a new approach to shopping in a safe, contactless and digital way. The feeling of shopping is still the same, but the experience is so much better. Although this store is open to any customer, the perks of being a Prime member permits you the option to scan a in-store code. Ring your items up as they enter cart and roll out of the store without taking out your wallet. Here are the benefits of shopping at Amazon Fresh: - Easy to find items - Contactless payment and interaction - Budget friendly (as it shows your total purchase) - Environmental friendly (no paper receipt or plastic bags). They provide paper bags inside the cart, but you can also use your recyclable bags. - Fresh produce, meats and bakery selection - Store associates to answer questions and guide you through your digital shopping if it's your first time If you have never shopped at Whole Foods, you will be sticker shock by the price. It wasn't a surprise to me as they are still partnering with Whole Foods. I feel that some items at Whole Foods are reasonable and you can still use for digital coupons. In summary, imagine if Whole Foods and Safeway had a baby! It would be called Amazon Fresh. Will this be by main grocery store? No! Will I visit from time to time and pick up small items? Yes! Kudos to Amazon for pivoting us forward.

Wegman's also has excellent meat and seafood sections. The bakery is impressive. And one thing they have improved since we first shopped here five years ago is that they have toned down the blasting music that used to make us want to get fast out of Wegman's. The hot foods section used to be pretty good, but now it has shriveled down to next to nothing, The take-home pre-prepared meals, while very good in quality, are exorbitant. Plan on spending $16-$18 for a simple meal, which is as much as you would pay in a restaurant for the same stuff. While they have an abundance of self-check stations, Wegman's doesn't let you get cash back, like you can at Safeway. The self-check stations can be persnickety. Today, I encountered one machine claiming I had put an unchecked item in the bagging item before I had even started scanning my stuff. Yikes! But what I really don't like is how Wegman's does bagging. The Virginia legislature in 2022 passed a law allowing grocery stores to collect from customers 5¢ for each plastic bag used. Wegman's has completely done away with plastic bags, yet Wegman's but takes advantage of that law to charge 5¢ for each paper bag. The icing on the cake is their paper sacks do not even have handles.

I grabbed a couple fist fulls of fresh red chili peppers and bright orange habaneros along with some assorted vegetables for a spicy curry recipe at a reasonable price during my visit. My aunt and I also selected some delicious cooked duck and pork (asian style) that was rich and delicious and worth every cent. Fresh world further lived up to their name with a fish market and butcher which provided me with some Mexican and Chinese style sausage made on site that day. If you are looking for reasonably priced produce and fresh cooked and affordable Peking duck and pork than visit Fresh world instead of your local grocery chain. The only minor gripe is that we were approached by very religious christians that followed my aunt and I to our car telling us how much Jesus loved us and pushing pamphlets. They were not threatening and only pushy. Had they taken a polite no for an answer, I would have given the place 5 stars.

What makes this situation even more ironic is the message printed on the store's bag: "Always FRESH!". Unfortunately, my experience was the exact opposite. This isn't really about the money. The amount is small. The issue is that customers should not be sold produce that is already rotten inside. If a store promotes "Always Fresh," there should be proper quality control to ensure the products on the shelf actually meet that promise. I hope someone from Fresh World's management or marketing team reaches out to address this situation, offer the appropriate apology, and refund the purchase. Regardless of the price, customers should not have to pay for food that is already spoiled. I'm sharing this so other shoppers are aware and can check their produce carefully when buying from this store.

I thought I knew exactly what I wanted, but after speaking with Ms. Dee, I quickly realized my original choice wasn't nearly as beautiful as what she recommended. Her expertise and eye for design made all the difference. The arrangement she created was absolutely stunning, and Kim loved it! Since my mother-in-law, my daughter, my goddaughters, and their mom were all visiting to celebrate with us, I also wanted to surprise each of them with flowers. Once again, Ms. Dee came through with gorgeous arrangements that perfectly fit each person. Seeing the smiles on everyone's faces made the occasion even more meaningful. Ms. Dee is the perfect example of what outstanding customer service looks like. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, patient, and genuinely kind. She took the time to understand what I wanted, offered thoughtful recommendations, and treated me as if helping make our anniversary special was just as important to her as it was to me. Because of Ms. Dee, our anniversary celebration was even more memorable. Her warmth, attention to detail, and passion for what she does have earned a customer for life. If you're looking for beautiful flowers and exceptional service, do yourself a favor and ask for Ms. Dee. She is simply the best!
