Had some relatives doing a multi state tour to see some of the places from their past. On their way back from the beach portion they went through Charlottesville and said they stopped here. They absolutely raved about the sandwiches they got. They brought me this as a gift. I'm usually unimpressed with frozen Italian items. Italian foods (especially the sauce) is hard to do fresh and even harder for frozen. I followed the instructions and these knocked my socks off. The sauce was sublime! read more

Feast is such a nice grocery shop with a selection of prepared meals and made-to-order selections. We were en route to a winery, so we picked up a farro parmesan bowl, which was filling and tasty. I also purchased some snacks and a Mother's Day gift. It's conveniently located in the market area with other vendors close by, making it an easy stop. read more

My girlfriends and I came here for lunch and had a lovely seasonal grilled cheese. All the cheeses paired together so well and tasted delicious.

I came here for lunch with one of my friends and I got The Favorite which was chicken cutlet, arugula, tomato basil spread, and arugula on toasted ciabatta. It was delicious!! I love this place because there's a decent amount of seating inside and outside, and there's other little stores in the building that make its quirky. read more

Feast is one of my go-to places for lunch. Their sandwiches are just flat-out delish. My faves are the--well, all of them, but also, I just had their tuna melt today which was one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten and I don't even like tuna melts. They're also just an all-around great shop for party staples like wine and fancy/delicious cheese, or just a house-made lemonade, limeade or iced tea if you're feeling it (and who isn't). read more

Paninis are out of this world. The chef that curates these sandwiches is well known in Charlottesville and I could tell why from the first bite. If you're looking for a good sandwiches, this is the first place in cville I'm recommending. It also has a cute store that my wife loves. read more

Local ingredients for local people. Love this place and I have yet to have a bad sandwich. Always like to explore the weekly specials since they are so exoctic but the true staple that is a must try is the Chicken Cheddar Fig Panini. *chefs kiss* read more

Feast is a cute little market shop that serves a variety of sandwiches, salads and soups. Their food is made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. In addition to food, there is a market with a nice selection of gourmet cheeses, oils, wines, etc. My favorite sandwich is the Prosciutto & Mozzarella. read more

A nice local spot with sandwiches, local groceries and wine. We stopped here for a quick lunch on a road trip. I ordered the tuna salad and also tried their molasses cookie and oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. My sandwich was good and flavorful, but nothing special. The molasses cookie was yummy and my oatmeal chocolate chip cookie was ok. One of my friends got the fried chicken sandwich and noticed the middle of it seemed raw, so we sent it back. The staff was accommodating and gave him a new one which was helpful. read more

Great products and service! Feast carries a wide variety of specialty items, perfect for gifting.

The food here is great. The shopping is spirit is great. Everything that you should want is great. I highly suggest except for the fact that the hours are ridiculous half the time you try to go will be closed except for Saturday which they are open. I do suggest it, but you just have to check hours before you go when you get in you can have a very nice sitdown experience or you can just go grocery shopping. They have a wide selection from olives to find cheeses and you can get plenty of good bread. The food's always been pretty good nothing absolutely outstanding but for a grocery store kind of thing it's pretty good. It's also in a good location in the downtown mall is only a few minutes away. read more

Met a friend here for lunch. There are tables for sitting down and eating inside the building and outside of the shop area; however, I didn't think it was that nice. I tried the Half Chicken Cheddar Fig Panini and Tomato Coconut & Kale Soup, and the Pho-Rench Dip sandwich.   The sandwiches were good. The Chicken Cheddar Fig Panini was tasty. The Tomato Coconut & Kale Soup was hearty and good for a cold day. Being Vietnamese and growing up with a lot of good Vietnamese food in Northern Virginia, I was skeptical of the Pho-Rench Dip Sandwich. However, I was pleasantly surprised. As a standalone dish, it worked well. The broth paired nicely with the sandwich. I wouldn't compare the experience of eating it, or the broth, to a good bowl of pho, but I liked the unique idea and taste.   Overall, I enjoyed the sandwiches and soups at Feast. I love that everything is local here. The price is a little on the high end for relatively small portions of soups and sandwiches compared to other options in the area, but it's understandable given the times. read more

Updating for COVID. They still have a great food selection, especially cheese and meats. Great pre-made items like meatballs. But with COVID you order online at https://www.feastvirginia.com/groceries Then they text you when it's ready to go. Reply with make and color of your car and they will take it out to you in the parking lot. Pickup is 10am to 230pm. They also do local deliveries and FedEx out of area. read more

Delightful market with creative lunch sandwiches and other delightful options. Recommended.

Small portions + strange interaction with staff? I've always passed by Feast and mentally put it on my list of places to try. I had heard their sandwiches and cheese selection was pretty good. My SO and I ordered the local and the pho-tench for pickup. Like other reviewers said, for the price of like $12 per sandwich (including tax), it's a tiny, tiny portion. Flavor was pretty good but nothing mind-blowing. The sides were like Costco sample sizes too. But what really left me with a bad impression was a strange interaction with a staff member. I was browsing and trying to find where to pick up my sandwiches. She showed me where the pick-up bar was and, seemingly out of nowhere, quipped in "And the $15 and under section is along that wall there." ??? To me, it sounded very condescending and borderline rude. There are places with better food for lunch. For a place called Feast, their portions don't reflect that at all. That combined with the weird comment - I'm steering clear of this place and I won't be back. read more

Was on my way to Bath County when I decided to stop for lunch. Tired of fast food joints I wanted to try a local deli. I purchased the Turkey, Brie & Cranberry on ABC bread, Asian Cucumber Salad and a local Honey & Mint green tea. The food was very flavorful and delicious; however, the sandwich was a bit sparse on ingredients hence only four stars. For an $11 sandwich, it should have contained a bit more. Amazingly fresh and worth going out of the way for. I'll definitely come back someday. read more

Feast - Turkey, Brie & Cranberry on ABC bread. - Grocery Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

This is a shop as well as a cafe that prepares lunch foods such as soups, sandwiches, salads, etc. and does catering as well. I had never been here but I found it on Yelp and decided since my husband and I love lunch type foods as well as gourmet cafes we would be sure to love it. We placed out order on a mobile phone and proceeded to pick our food up. It was really busy when we got there, we didn't even go inside because they brought the food out to us which was nice. We decided to eat our meals at a local park. I ordered the chicken, cheddar, fig sandwich which was probably to worst part of both of our meals. The sandwich was a half size portion that came with soup as a lunch meal. I'm not a fan of jams and sweet spreads on my deli meats so I asked to have it without. I was very surprised once we arrived to the park and opened my sandwich. It was extremely small, there was a tiny square of cheese (think lunchable sized), and one piece of folded over chicken meat. The bread was even hard so I just really gave up. The soup was good and tasted like you would expect from a broccoli cheddar. Downside to this was there were no cutlery provided so I did drink it out of the cup which really wasn't a big deal. My husband ordered the full sized sandwich which was a play on a French dip and he really liked it. He said he wished the meat portion would have been comparable to other sandwich shops we visit for lunch. Overall it was ok. There are many options for lunch in Charlottesville and I will probably continue visiting other options for lunch in the area. read more

I don't know how I haven't come across this place in all the time I've been in Charlottesville. It may be because of some limited lunch hours, so definitely take note of their hours! They have so many options it was hard to choose! So we settled on the local, the chicken fig, and the pho sandwich. We ordered on the phone and our order was promptly ready. They texted me when it was ready, and I responded with my vehicle type. The sandwiches are normal size. My friend liked them all, and favored the local. I second that opinion. The pho sandwich really does taste like pho on a sandwich which was good but different. The chicken fig was delicious but a bit on the sweet side. We both loved the local and that's it. The side fruit salad was nothing to rave about, it was watery and a bit on the soggy side :/ Overall great sandwiches though! read more

This sandwich is from Feast! on Main Street. It is the Pho-Rench dip ($10) and full of flavor. The beef is sliced super thin to mimic beef in pho and it is topped with a spicy siracha mayo, fresh cilantro and to follow up on the French dip and pho play, it is served with a pho broth to dip your sandwich in. The bread is super crusty on the outside and soft in the middle. This place is definitely one of my favorite lunch spots. Plus they offer a lot more than lunch, there is also a store with premade meals and specialty items. Could be a fun place to select items for a gift basket. read more

Such a cute shop serving up quality sandwiches. A huge plus is that they have their own private parking lot, especially being located on busy Main St. They carry a nice selection of wines, cheeses, and other miscellaneous items. Everyone who worked there was extremely friendly. The prices were a bit steep for the size of the sandwiches, especially compared to other local sandwich shoppes. The chicken in the fried chicken melt was DELICIOUS - crispy, flavorful, and definitely tasted fresh fried. The turkey, brie, cranberry panini was yummy but left me wanting a little more. They have a lot of other sandwich options that sounded good, so I'd love to come back again and try those out! read more

Feast! is a charming market known for their deli sandwiches and artisan ready made meals. I ordered the Pho-Rench sandwich which comes with a side of pho broth to dip your sandwich in! I was excited to try this sandwich because I truly didn't know what to expect from this concept. In my opinion, it doesn't take exactly like pho... I didn't expect it to be but contains essences of pho and Vietnamese cuisine that I really enjoyed. I wouldn't describe it as an attempt to be authentic but rather a play on Vietnamese flavors. The sandwich had a good amount of cilantro that reminded me of banh mi and the thin slices of beef were reminiscence of the same cut of meat I would get in my pho. I loved the ciabatta roll that came with the sandwich - think it came next door from Albemarle Baking Co. read more

I love perusing around Feast's market, sampling the little treats they put out, and finding things I've never heard of before. They offer a great selection of picnic/dinner party/cheese+charcuterie board accoutrements, and you can be sure to find ingredients that will please yourself or your guests. They stock many things that you wouldn't find at a typical grocery store and that are imported from various countries, so expect a matching price tag, but the quality is there. The folks behind the meat counter have always been friendly and helpful when I am in trying to find some charcuterie for a picnic/cheese board. They also sell delicious local bread from ABC which is in the same building complex as them, so it can be a one stop shop basically. I have yet to have an actual meal in their cafe, but it's on my to-do list! read more

Honestly, I don't think there's much to not like about Feast! (yes, there's an exclamation point at the end). Except maybe the fact that it's closed Sunday. The staff are friendly, and there are plenty of samples sprinkled through the floor. Free parking too.  It's been a while since I've had their sandwiches, but I was fond of their paninis. In addition to their cafe, they sell a wide range of local, national, and international foodstuffs. Love this. Check Feast! out in the Main Street Market! read more

I've found my favorite lunch so far in Charlottesville. That's not really fair because this is only my second and I'll probably end up somewhere around 20 before this project is complete. But wow, this sandwich was awesome and the entire Feast grocery is awesome too! I chose the roasted turkey special of the day. It did take about 15 minutes to be prepared, which does seem long but it was worth it. Heavy whole wheat bread, just a little lettuce, just a little tomato, just a little avocado, just a little mayo. This is how I'd probably make my own sandwich. With it, I chose the white bean salad which was a small serving but very delicious. Yummy lunch! The Feast grocery also has a bunch of the higher end stuff for sale in their cheese and olive oils and deli and wines. Interesting and unusual, all perfect for a great picnic to impress. Awesome and worth each of their five stars. read more

Located at Main Street Market, this place is worth the trip. Wide selection of different salads, sandwiches, and soups. Plenty of to go options if you don't have time to wait. Also if you don't have time to wait, place your order early for takeout as it does get busy. Everything is fresh and delicious. Loved their spin on tomato soup and their French dip sandwich. Great customer service, when tables were filling up the man at the pick up counter was bringing tables in from outside so people had places to sit. There is a market selection of cheese and meats, local products, etc.. Highly recommend!! read more

Yes! The warm chicken salad sandwich is soooooo good. Underrated deli in Charlottesville! Cute little market inside. Seating is slightly limited, but most folks come for pickup anyways. The problem is when customers use it like their WFH office and only purchase a Pellegrino to justify their table use. I would give it a 5/5, but because of this it's a 4. read more

Meh! Def. overrated for what they offered. I ordered the chicken and avocado rice bowl. Rice wasn't cooked to my liking, it was cold and flavorless. read more

Sadly Feast's lunch has gone "downhill" since it changed ownership. It has always been a "go to" spot but today my sandwich was ridiculous. I had a Caprese and it had very small pieces of mozzarella with a couple of basil leaves and some sort of tomato spread. They no longer offer the complimentary side beans or fruit. The food selections for take out are still fine but the lunch was disappointing. read more

This is by far my favorite lunch spot in Charlottesville! They have a wide array of options and while I wait for my food, I walk around and try all the samples they have (the olive oil is my fave!). The seating area outside the market is nice, I can have a great conversation and hear my friend. It never feels too crowded during the week for lunch. After I have my lunch I always sneak over to the coffee cart to get an apple cider donut and a coffee. If you need a quiet place to have lunch, definitely check out Feast. read more

Ordered the tuna melt and the fried chicken melt - used the QR code on the tables. Really quick and easy! The tuna melt was very good, light and fluffy bread with roasted tomato spread.

Feast is my favorite place in Charlottesville for lunch. Many of their sandwiches are made with local ingredients and fresh bread from ABC, the bakery next door. The atmosphere is excellent with plenty of seating. It's also fun to walk through the market and see all the local products they have to offer while waiting for your food. My favorite item on their menu is the ham, fig, and goat cheese panini, which is an amazing combination of sweet and salty sandwiched between two slices of warm ciabatta. Would recommend Feast! for a date, a family outing, or even as a place to sit and do work for a few hours while you enjoy the ambiance. read more

I came to the café here for lunch a few times with coworkers while working in Charlottesville during the summer of 2019. I really loved how local this place was, and enjoyed perusing the market, although I never bought anything. The market usually has tasty samples; on one occasion they had some very addicting chocolate-covered caramels, and on another they had bread and a unique and delicious honey-sunflower butter. I always had a hard time deciding what I wanted since so much of the menu (especially in the sandwich section) appealed to me. Over the course of my visits here, I tried the rosemary ham & goat cheese sandwich, the Pho-rench dip sandwich, and the avocado toast. My favorite was the Pho-rench dip; the pho dipping sauce was amazing. I will say the portion sizes are a bit small for the price, but all the food is tasty and thoughtfully prepared. Drink options in the self-serve fridge include kombucha and local iced teas, among other things. When ordering at the café, you order at the café menu board, then go through the market (and pick up drinks, snacks, or anything else you want) before heading to the cash register to pick up. There's a good amount of seating in the market if you have your food to stay. If you want coffee, there's a cool-looking coffee truck in the market. Feast! is a short walk from the Downtown Mall area, as well as the Residence Inn. read more

The Washington Post really loved this place so I was curious. It's fully deserving of the Wa Po's drooling review. At "Feast" you enter a world of gourmet tastes, and small-batch, local, and artisanal foods. It features a split layout between a market and a cafe counter. The samples of cheese, chutneys, salamis, oils, vinegars and dips set out throughout the store are utterly delightful. The ladies behind the cheese counter are friendly and offer tips on different cheeses. Everything seems appropriately pricey: a great french mustard for $6, a sweet onion jelly to top your cheese for $8--- this is a place to indulge in some special treats. Look in the coolers for prepared and packaged foods like sandwiches, deviled eggs, dips and so on. Check out their great chocolates, chocolate bark, and unique drinks. There's also a prepared foods counter with soups, side salads, and sandwiches. We got two sandwiches to go for a picnic, choosing from a large hand-written menu board with unique choices of toasted pannini sandwiches. My ham, goat cheese, arugula, and spiced plum chutney tasted beautiful on a fairly slender toasted pannini. The ham was clearly artisanal and super thinly sliced. We also got the goat cheese vegetarian version. At $9, I thought these sandwiches were just a bit more special and unique than the Panera-chain style pannini. I liked the thin crispy bread used here. I would highly recommend a stop at this and other shops in the "Main Street Market" to check out some of their lunch items. read more
