Dori and her team have helped us every part of the way to ensure we would get everything prepared the way we wanted for our family. Having an option for nitrate free smoked meats that have amazing flavor has been a game changer for our family. If you've never ordered from Dennison Meat, give them a call, you will never regret the change in the quality of meat you will receive compared to grocery stores.

Funny I picked up the frozen beer battered pollack. I did some sampling for this review. Ham spread, not spicy, pretty mild and perfect for an appetizer. I got a creamy macaroni salad and it is clearly made on site. Not the generic crap. Some ham for sandwiches. This is definitely not the stuff from the store. The butter spritz cookies looked great for a snack later. You really have to hold back. If i picked up any of the jams and jellies I'd put back on the 50# I lost. The only non specialty items were crackers and sodas as far as I could tell. There's a lot of stuff here and a lot of people buying it at any given time. My favorite was in the deli. Pete's jalapeno pickles. Now Yelpers know I don't like anything spicy. This just looked so damn good and it was bread and butter style. A great flavor. Super big slices too. They have good cheese assortments and I was impressed by a huge block of sliced American. Lots of staff. This place is almost like a hang out.

Now the real challenge. Could we eat the prime rib as the staff at Greg's directed us? Yes. Yes…read more Yes. Lol we are gonna have to go in for the award-winning prime rib at Greg's. Many people are on their way thanks again.

I usually change up my seasonings on how I prepare it but everyone is happy. Honestly, this review is for the little store at Ferndale. It has all sorts of things in there that are unique and you won't see available at the regular places. The other thing is that the prices are decent and the quality is good. From cheeses, snacks to other meats and more. But what I'm writing about are the Chef Martin Käsekrainer Brats that they carry. A tasting was happening and I was blown away so I bought myself a package and just had them last night. Think cheese brats but made with an Austrian knowledge and swiss cheese vs cheddar. Wow! So good. So there it is. If you see Chef Martin brand brats, you should definitely try them. #chefmartinsausage #eatbettersausage

When I got there, I asked if I could please use the restroom. She informed me that there restroom was not public. I asked again if I could please use it because I was pregnant and drove a long way, and I really could not finish my shopping because I had to pee so badly. She still wouldn't let me. I ended up leaving with only 2 packages of bacon and 2 canned items, when it was my intention to purchase much more than that. It was an embarrassing experience for myself, and I also feel the owner of this establishment should be embarrassed. I understand the policy of not having a public restroom, but please have a bit of human compassion and make an exception for an emergency. You lost a big sale today.

The extent of their COVID precautions is a plastic shield at the counter. I did not make a scene in the store, but I did call when I got home. I expressed my concerns politely and asked if the lack of masks was an anomaly or regular practice. He said that they have a plastic shield and a sign on the door to comply with the law, but customers can come and go as they please (with or without masks). I told him that the pandemic is real and unless they enforce mask-wearing, I will not come back. He said, "Fine!" and hung up on me. It is a bummer because they have delicious tri-tip roasts.
