We also enjoy their Maryland crab cakes. but they are spicier. My husband really likes their coffee selection. They have bins and bins of beans that you scoop, grind, and bag the amount you want to buy. I like that they carry some David's teas and Harney & Sons teas. Their bakery offers some delicious small dessert so you can buy the small size to try it out or for variety. Their flowers are lovely, though on the more expensive side than Trader Joe's across the street. Staff are friendly and efficient. I have especially found them helpful when I buy a meal package during the holidays. These packages come with meal, dessert, and flowers. They are a big hit in our home. Parking is easy, and the store is just off Monticello Avenue.

I'm…read moreglad I moved to another side of town because every time I used to come here and when I do come here frequently it's like I feel if I'm not a old white lady I'm not gonna be treated with respect when I ask a question it's like I'm bothering them to do something when I'm standing at the register trying to get help they're huddled in the corner chatting and gossiping. It's a ongoing thing. It's just all the time and I'm just tired of it management to do something about that I was sitting there trying to get help Just now and the ladies wouldn't even dad and I and there's two people on the self check out with three customers checking out it's just pathetic.

We walked but they had plenty of parking spots. The store has a warehouse feel but is shrunken down into a small little store with no more than about 10-12 isles. They had all the basic food groups represented, including a small wine, beer and cider section. We enjoyed the Pearseccos immensely. No pharmaceutical or apothecary wares could be found in the store though. They did have a nice summer isle with tubes, beach towels etc. I chose self check out and was a little insulted to only have my age checked by the video camera and not a staff person. I kept picturing someone monitoring and saying "Oh double 21!." Card a lady buying Pearseccos next time Aldi's!

They offer in-season flowers and plants, as well as greenery, roses, mums, carnations, and many others. You can buy bunches of a specific flower or bouquets of varying size containing a mix of flowers. I find that their flowers are fresh and last a long time. If you buy many bunches, you can ask for a small bucket of water to transport your purchases.

My first time visiting this Food Lion was today. I've been to Trader Joe's, both Eustis and…read moreLangley's commissaries, Harris-Teeter, Publix, Aldi, and Krogers. Did not like my experience. As I searched for the right cut and weight of chicken in the meat department, two employees working there just flat out ignored me. I also needed a piece of fresh fish, but the Seafood counter looks ghastly, there's no way I'd get fresh seafood from here. But the worst part, on a SATURDAY, there was one cashier open and everything else was Self-Checkout. Bizarrely, all the manned cashier lanes say they are express (12 items). So fine I'll check out my entire shopping cart myself. There's too much superior competition in this area to ever return to Food Lion.

You can grab a sandwich (lots of great options) and their house dressing alone is worth the stop. Seriously delicious. But the real fun is the cheese counter. You can build your own cheese board, browse all their incredible cheeses and charcuterie options, and then... here's the best part... Take everything downstairs to the cellar, order a glass (or bottle) of wine, and just enjoy. No rush. No fuss. Just good food, good wine, and a great atmosphere. It's one of those spots that feels like an experience, not just a meal. Fun, relaxed, and so, so yum. If you're in Colonial Williamsburg, don't skip this one. Grab cheese, grab wine, and settle in -- you'll be glad you did.

I also tried one of their chocolate chip cookies and a brookie and they were both delicious! Will get those again! Loved that on a busy Sunday lunch time that they had an employee greeting everyone and telling them how the ordering process works and directing people to where they ahold go!

On the other side of the store is a wall full of various flavors of loose leaf tea, ranging from highly caffeinated black tea to herbal. They also have a small booth inside the shop where you can order a cup of hot or iced tea from any of the flavors in the store.
