I shopped in-store ONE time on Christmas Eve, and the very next morning I woke up to three…read morefraudulent Meijer.com charges on my card. When I called Customer Service, they casually informed me that their systems had been compromised. No warning. No alert. Nothing. Now I'm sitting here out $1,100, waiting for my bank to investigate, while Meijer shrugs off a breach that they allowed to happen. If they knew their systems were compromised, they should have taken them offline immediately. Instead, they left customers exposed and unprotected. This isn't a small mistake. This is a complete failure to safeguard the people who trust them with their information. Meijer didn't just drop the ball, they abandoned their responsibility entirely. Yelp forces at least one star, but let's be honest: this experience deserves ZERO stars.

Unfortunately, I don't know his name, but I want to note that he remained polite and respectful throughout the situation. I was concerned to see that he appeared visibly upset afterward.

This time I chose chicken tenders and mashed potatoes since I see people get them often. The tender was kinda hard, as if it'd been out for a while. The sides were good though, I always appreciated the chance to get in some veggies. I'll likely stick to the other protein options, but it was still a decent visit.

I just want to give a huge shout-out to this Whole Foods location. I genuinely look forward to…read moregrocery shopping when I come here, which says a lot because we all know it can feel overwhelming sometimes. The staff is always so willing to help and consistently kind. I've even gotten to know a few of them by name, and it truly feels like walking into a neighborhood grocery store where you're greeted by familiar faces. Everything is easy to find, always fresh, and honestly just tastes better. I can get everything I need in one trip, and I've been meaning to leave this review for a while. Whatever hiring or training process you use clearly works, because the team here is made up of some of the friendliest, most helpful, hardworking people. Thank you for making grocery shopping feel enjoyable and welcoming. And the social space--complete with the fireplace, coffee, and ready-to-eat food--just takes it to another level. It's such a cool addition to the whole experience.

I have loved Trader Joe's since college but I didn't Yelp back then so I feel like it's time show…read morethem the love they deserve. I typically frequent the Sawmill location but I was at Easton anyways and it's pretty much the same if not slightly bigger. There are so many different things I love to get on a regular basis but I will highlight a few favorites in my pictures. The staff are always so friendly despite crowds and lines on weekends, and the prices are always on point. If you are busy and want to eat good food with minimal effort on budget, this is your spot.

Trader Joe's has become my default grocery stop when I want something a little different--or when I…read moreneed to feel better about spending money on snacks I didn't plan for. One of my favorite things about shopping here is that it feels less like an errand and more like a fun little game to discover something new. It's the kind of thing I'd mention if someone asked, "So what did you get into this weekend?"--because yes, wandering the aisles counts as an activity in my book. You walk in and the flower section is overflowing with fresh bundles that look way more expensive than they are. I've grabbed plenty--mums, thistles, lilies--and they last longer than anything I've picked up at big chain stores. Even a $5 bouquet makes the week feel brighter. The layout is easy to navigate without feeling crowded, and the staff are always kind if you need help. You'll see everyone from college students to grandparents to parents with kids shopping, and it never feels intimidating. There's a low-key community vibe, too. People will chat about what's good, especially if you look undecided in front of the freezer section. I've ended up trying things because someone insisted I had to--like the Watermelon Cucumber Cooler. A stranger was raving about it, so I grabbed a bottle, and she was right. Make sure you drink it cold. I've been swapping snack reviews with my nephew. He's hooked on the Spicy Tempura Seaweed Snack--light, crispy, salty, with a little heat. I'm partial to their bruschetta sauce and the hot fudge, which somehow doesn't taste like the usual heavy fudge. The lemonades are usually the reason I come here. The Jalapeño Limeade, Spicy Mango Lemonade, and classic Limeade are always in my fridge. Refreshing without being too sweet, and perfect for mixing drinks. Prices are fair enough that you can try something new without feeling like you've splurged. Whether you eat vegan, gluten-free, or just want to try something different, there's something here for everyone. The freezer meals can be hit or miss. Some need a little extra seasoning, but the Chicken Shawarma Bowl is a solid quick lunch. If you have an air fryer, grab the Jalapeño & Cream Cheese Crispy Wontons--they turn out golden and crunchy every time. Their sauces deserve a shoutout. The Peri-Peri Sauce is fantastic on tacos or eggs--tangy, smoky, and way more flavorful than you'd expect for a $3 bottle. And while you're in line, don't skip the greeting cards. They're 99 cents and surprisingly cute. Trader Joe's even has an Instagram and a podcast with recipes and ideas, which is fun if you like feeling part of the community. Overall, this is the kind of store you walk into for groceries and leave with a few treats, something new to love, and maybe a bouquet. If you've been here, share your must-try recommendations--I'm always looking for something different to throw in the cart.

Pro tip: try the white cake with cream cheese frosting. These are typically for birthdays, but sometimes you just really want this cake. It is ahhhhhmazing. There is also a state of Ohio liquor store, a large wine, selection, and extensive beers and ales available. Hot foods are prepared here with a deli also among the offerings, and sushi chefs on staff. If you don't want to cook, but you're looking for something to eat there is an answer here. Large produce section just inside the front door, and the meat department has butchers on staff, as well as prepackaged items. Huge dairy department. Regular grocery offerings are of course available in the central zone of the store. There is a pharmacy on site, and a large over-the-counter, non-prescription, and herbal/supplement section in the store. nearby there are fuel pumps at the associated Get-Go location.

The store was clean, well-stocked, and prepared to handle the mad rush of people who came in after we were finished shopping.

We bought unsliced deli buffalo chicken breast and it is delicious. It has quite a spicy kick, but some ranch dressing helps cut that heat. The prices are great and no membership is required.

I assumed it was a gift shop, maybe with tchotchkes and kitchenware, German snacks, German Village souvenirs. I was nearby today and time to kill, so I went in, finally. And: it's a wine shop.

There are also plenty of local beers in a cooler. A few gifts, mainly in the form of sarcastic cocktail napkins, drinking accessories, etc. Not my kind of place, but I will be directing "winos" here.

Satellite operations now actually exist in several leather parts of the city, but the concept is the same. On site flat lot parking is available as well as street parking, and parking in a number of garages nearby. This is a great place to come for lunch or dinner, perhaps before an event at one of the several venues in the Arena District entertainment area.

We happened to walk over from a few blocks away, but there was snow and ice on every sidewalk - it sucked to get there tbh. Can't do anything about the massive building being build practically on top of this historic building, but that's Columbus for you. So if you don't mind walking a bit in potentially garbage weather with untended sidewalks, it's super fun to visit. Jeni's is always a treat for dessert, but so is Buckeye Donuts. The Crepes menu sounds amazing, too. We tried Satori ramen bar and it was hot and flavorful! The bakery next to Satori on the corner has amazing baked goods, too.
