Exceptional Quality, Incredible Selection, and True Old‑School Service…read more Westerly Packing is one of those rare places that reminds you why local businesses matter. Every time I walk through the door, I'm greeted by the smell of fresh, high‑quality meats and the kind of friendly, knowledgeable service you just don't get anywhere else. Their butchers are true professionals -- you can ask for custom cuts, cooking tips, or recommendations, and they always take the time to help without rushing you along. The selection is outstanding. Whether you're looking for everyday staples, specialty cuts, or something unique for a holiday or big family gathering, they have it -- and it's always fresh. Their marinated options are consistently flavorful, their sausages are some of the best around, and their steaks are the kind you proudly serve to guests. You can tell everything is handled with care and pride. What really sets Westerly Packing apart is the experience. The staff treats you like a regular even if it's your first visit. The store is clean, well‑organized, and clearly run by people who love what they do. Prices are fair for the quality you're getting, and you always leave feeling like you got real value. If you care about great food and supporting a business that genuinely cares about its customers, Westerly Packing is a must. Five stars all the way. Ask them to try Westerlys gold!! You'll be glad you did. IYKYK Cheers

We ended up doing their deal, 3 for $36, saving $1.99 per bag. We ended up getting the jalapeño honey, a teriyaki, and a Nashville hot. If you're unsure of which jerky, you'd like, there are free samples. The only downside is they don't sample their limited time offers. They also have freeze dried bug candy, which I've only had once in my life. Personally, I'm not a fan, but it really doesn't taste like much.

McQuade's Marketplace is a solid local grocer with a lot to appreciate. The selection is on the…read moresmaller side, which can be both a strength and a drawback -- it's easy to navigate and find what you need quickly, but sometimes you wish there were a few more options on the shelves. Where McQuade's really shines is the produce. Fresh, vibrant, and consistently high quality, it's clear they put real care into what they bring in. It's one of the main reasons I keep coming back. The only thing holding this place back from a full five stars is the pricing. While the quality is there, the higher costs make regular shopping feel a bit steep. Still, for great produce and a clean, easy-to-shop market, McQuade's is a dependable choice. Cheers

But this is truly a one stop shop as there is a mini restaurant for breakfast, pharmacy, bakery, deli, and all the other regular grocery items.

Let's be honest, we wonder in Sticky Situations and Olive Oil Store for the samples. Tartufo was sampling truffle honey, dried salami, chocolate, and sweet dips. Tartufo is highlighting truffle and charcuterie. If you love putting together beautiful grazing boards, you'll love this! From sweet to savory, they have all your essential from crackers, cheeses, meats, chocolates, and spreads. They have pastas, sauce, and jars of truffle for your main dishes. This is also a great place to pick up items to put together a gift basket. I will need to remember this spot during the holiday season. My couple critiques on the shop were that none of the items had prices and items were scattered throughout the shop on tables and shelves. I would liked to see a more organization. Anyway, this is a great addition especially since charcuterie and the love for truffle is currently trending.

Although this is not as big as Aldi nor as cheap I believe they are extremely great competitors. They have a great variety of products and even cultural products. Their MEAT section is my favorite.

They also have beer section; ice cream birthday cakes which is convenient and they have great quick meals that you can pick up for family dinner. If you need gas there's also a gas station and air pump. All you need in one convenient location. Staff is also pleasant and helpful.

Used to come here often for sandwich meat and groceries, not anymore. Was waiting in line at the…read moremeat department and saw an older employee scooping what looked to be egg or potato salad out of a large container, into a smaller container, without any gloves on, was not even using a spoon, was using a smaller personal serving container. Same employee was not even wearing a hair net, or hat as the other employees that worked there were. I guess this could be one bad apple ruining the bunch, but it left a bad taste in my mouth. This happened a few months ago, and they may have replaced the person with someone else, hopefully. But I will pass for the time being.

The thing that makes this a wonderful spot is also the service. You are welcomed and treated so warmly from start to finish. If you haven't checked it out you need to. It's a gem.

Every visit is a reminder of how vibrant and talented our local community is. The market may be modest in size, but the quality, variety, and friendliness are absolutely top‑tier. The vendors consistently bring fresh, seasonal produce that tastes like it was picked that morning--crisp greens, gorgeous tomatoes, berries bursting with flavor, and so much more depending on the time of year. You can truly taste the difference. Beyond produce, the market is full of local makers, bakers, and growers offering everything from fresh bread and pastries to artisanal cheeses, honey, jams, and handcrafted goods. There's always something new to discover, and everything feels thoughtfully curated. The atmosphere is one of the best parts: warm, welcoming, and community‑driven. Vendors are happy to chat, share tips, or tell you the story behind what they grow or make. It's the kind of market where you run into neighbors, linger a little longer than planned, and leave with both great food and a great mood. Whether you're stocking up for the week or just enjoying a Saturday morning stroll, the Stonington Village Farmers Market is a true local treasure. Fresh, friendly, and full of character--highly recommended. Cheers

At Sticky Situations you will find honey, so many creative variations of honey. Every single flavor can be sampled, no wonder this store is always so sticky with customers. The employees are friendly and are ready to answer any questions. Just to name a few flavors, they have Lemon honey, cinnamon honey, raspberry honey, chocolate honey, even avocado honey. The variety of berry honey is like shopping at the grocery store, for blackberries, cranberries and strawberries. All of those are at Sticky Situations in their honey suits! I got the blueberry honey, it is tart and freshly delicious! Each flavor comes in two sizes, the 4 ounce and the 8 ounce jars. They retail at $9.95 and $16.95 respectively. They are pricey. These would make an excellent gift for anyone who's hard to shop for.

I was literally trying everything, from fruity and floral to some bold, unique flavors, before finally picking a few favorites to bring home. They don't just have honey, either. They sell small batch syrups, including this apple tree sap syrup that tastes super fresh and crisp. I had to grab a bottle. The whole place has a cozy, welcoming vibe, and the staff really knows their stuff, so whether you just want to browse or taste your way through everything, it's a good time. If you're ever in Mystic and have a sweet tooth, this place is definitely worth buzzing by.
