Date of visit: May 24, 2025…read more We needed some supplies for our time here in Milan and I wanted something more than just a convenience store or mini market and the prices that go with those places that tend to be the opposite of the size of the establishment! This Esselunga is located within a mall, which I have to say is a new one for me, but the location was good for us to walk to and from our apartment and they had a nice variety of items available for purchase. Staff was nonexistent but we were able to find most of what we wanted without any assistance.

So glad we found this supermarket! We got a cucumber, blueberries, bananas, pizzas, calzones,…read moresausage bread, juice. Loved the selections for individually-packaged itemssuch as salads & cut-up fruits. Great selections of pretty much everything you typically find at any American grocery store. The store-made foods we got were 50% OFF!!! Bc we went late at night. If you're a budget-minded traveler, you'd love this store!

A baguette, a salmon tartare, a bottle of San Pellegrino for like eight euro. Yeah I know, it's…read morejust an ordinary supermarket, but give me a break. I'm American. Bored and lacking in inspiration, I could walk down the street from my hotel and find this kind of ambrosia that is simply unavailable in DC.

We spent 3 weeks in this town and got to know many of the vendors and this place was, by far, such a pleasure to come and shop. The family who runs it is very accommodating, speak English ( for all the American and British travelers who come here) and carry so many authentic Italian products. We even purchased several jars of one sauce to take back to CA. One of the best parts of this place is Sunny, the young woman who works there- what a pleasant, helpful and kind person. She will make you want to come back and shop here just to have her help you. I hope she gets some credit for the good work she does there.

Macelleria Salumeria is a cute, local shop that says meats, cheeses, and accompanying sauces,…read morespreads, breads, wines, and other odds and ends. The married shop owners, Enriqio and Annarita, are so friendly and were both so patient with us. Annarita's English is good and fluent and I had to do some combination of gesturing and guessing with Enriqio. We ended up coming here three times for salami sandwiches. We told Annarita the rough specifications: focaccia, Milanese salami, a medium cheese and sun dried tomatoes, and they made it happen. It cost about the same as a subway sandwich but we felt we got so much more! Delicious and great service. We will be back!

A little hidden super market under the train station. It was hard to find, but we found it after…read moresome struggles. We needed some baby supplies and this place had what we needed. Some portions of this place smelled a little weird, but other than that, I liked the experience here. If you need some super market products at super market prices, this is the place.

We loved their freshly made food, the sandwiches, risotto, Milanese, salads, & desserts were all great & very REASONABLY priced! 2 items, dessert or side dish, & a drink for only 10.90 euros! They also have great selections of snacks (including ice cream), salad bowls, & reasonably-priced wines (u can get one for 6-7 euros for a 750ml bottle). The staff were pretty efficient, but spoke limited English. It's so conveniently located, so you can grab food on your way as you go to your destination by train.

None of the staff was very welcoming or willingly looking to provide customer service. They do have a good selection of local products available. One weird thing for me being American was. They kept their eggs on shelves instead of the cooler section. I will say one thing that made this place a "Do not return" spot for me was the there was several rotten fruits and vegetables left mixed in with the others. You can tell they had been there for days and no one checks. They charge for bags here so keep that in mind and plan accordingly. I will say I like the hrs of operation.

Date of visit: May 27, 2025…read more I wanted to bring back some pasta for my employees and rather than hitting up a tourist spot featuring overpriced pasta shaped like gondolas, I found a grocery store where locals were more likely to buy their pasta. There was a decent selection of pasta at a very good price, with several brands outside of the store brand available for purchase. The store was clean and in good condition; really the only things that I didn't like was the unfriendliness of the person staffing the self-checkouts (no greeting or acknowledgement at all) and that despite the checkout having an English option, the receipt still printed in Italian. Seems like an easy fix!
