But the markup on their products makes the bulk of what they sell inaccessible to the average person. It's beyond the classic healthfood store pricing, we're talking $20 for a jar of almond butter when Vineyard Grocer (under five minutes away) sells the same thing for much less. I mean, it seems counterintuitive to be focused on eco-friendliness and then to price out the majority so only some can afford it, right? Like, if you want people buying non-organic/fair trade/etc, why make it so most of them can't do it at your store? The counter argument I usually hear is that you get a discount via the Island Club Card, but that's going away soon and it's like $90. So it's still a problem. Sometimes you'll need to go here to buy something you want and in all honesty if you're visiting the island it's worth checking out. But always look at the price tag before you buy anything, you never know when something that should be $7 is $30.

This is an outrageous grocery store, charging 2-3 times what I pay for things at Whole Foods!…read more Selection is not spectacular, the fruits and vegetables look terrible. The store isn't even that well stocked or clean. I literally saw a pint of cherry tomatoes for $10. The yogurt I buy is $1.25 at Wegman's and $2.49 at Cronig's. Soda that's often 4 two liters for $5 in Boston is $3.99 each. I walked out with some drinks and snacks for the beach and it was $100. Checkout people are nice. It's sad because I would love to support local businesses and I'm not a Stop and Shop fan but it's better than this.

This accessibility is KEY on an island where food is unavailable for purchase late night, and where the grocery stores close suspiciously early!

There were two staff members and Stanley Larsen, owner of Menemsha Fish Market, taking orders when our group walked in. Everyone was very friendly. I ordered a cup of the New England Clam Chowder ($6.25), Crab Cake Sandwich ($13.55), a hot stuffed quahog ($5.75), and a coke ($2.00). On the counter, there were samples of the New England Clam Chowder and Lobster Bisque. They were both very good. The New England Clam Chowder was creamy like how I liked it and it had a good amount of potatoes and clams. I really enjoyed the Crab Cake Sandwich and stuffed quahog. The Crab Cake was stuffed and a good size. The quahog was buttery and had a good amount of stuffing. There are a few tables next to the fish market to enjoy your food. Later on, the owner shared his story of catching a great white shark in 1983 while swordfishing and showed us its jaws. If you are in the fishing village of Menemsha or Menemsha public beach, make sure you stop by Menemsha Fish Market. Restrooms are located adjacent to the parking lot in front of Menemsha Fish Market.

The check out is literally right next to the entrance/exit. They have a small amount of fresh/prepackaged foods which may or may not have been sitting there for hours/days. The confusing bit is that there is another section of the store for toiletries or non-grocery items. It isn't so obvious for a newbie like me. You can find soaps, scrubs, baskets, lotions etc. You have to walk through the back area of the shop though. This market serves the need of the people but I am so surprised that it is so tiny since it is serving one of the largest communities on the Island. There aren't many other choices so you just have to suck it up. Don't come expecting too much however.

This market has everything you need but it's also really pricey. Unfortunately they don't have the protein powder that they sell at the health food store attached to the other Cronig's. So you'll have to drive into VH for that. read more

In fact, you may feel like you have discovered a hidden jewel. They sell lots of items in bulk, frozen foods (some are really good), coffee filters, paper towels, pots and pans, spices, power bars, ice, meats and more. The prices are quite reasonable for the island. Remember that everything has to be trucked in from the mainland which adds to the cost of every single thing you buy on the Vineyard. This island has few bargains. lt closes at 4:30 which makes no sense to me. But it opens at 8 am so that works for us early birds. Don't ignore this terrific island resource as you drive between VH and Edgartown. Especially if you need lots of mustard, hot dogs, ketchup or mayo for your next cookout with family and friends.
