A must try when in the Wilmington area. Whether you are looking to dine in or take home one of their frozen meals, you will not be disappointed. It hasn't been a successful trip to Wilmington until I've had their turkey apple brie sandwich. The staff is welcoming and friendly. Overall a great spot to visit. read more

Beautiful property with a nice selection of wonderful jarred jelly's jams and sauces. There's a deli, coffee shop, and a bakery. The highlight was for me was an open wine and beer tasting with plenty of Virginia selections. Nice place, worth stopping. read more

Today we had lunch catered from Pine Valley Market. We chose the boxed individual lunches and had the roast beef, turkey/apple/brie, veggies and hunks wrap and club sandwiches. I thought the sandwiches were very good but I would have rather had a different bread for the turkey/apple/brie. Pasta salad was good but very small portion and cookie wasn't very good. I still love this place a lot, but was pricey for catering for this. read more

The sandwiches are delicious! Nice fresh bread and ingredients. Service was wonderful

Always great service and food. Roasted Veggie wrap is the best!! Cute place. Definitely local feel because locals know where to go. So glad I found this when I'm visiting my son in Wilmy. Consistent deliciousness read more

Our new favorite place to pick up a sandwich, soup or take and bake meals . Service is good, but they are so swamped with orders, be prepared to wait, which is fine as the food is worth the wait. They have about a dozen tables inside and a few outside. Cute decor in a small Cafe way. read more

I went for lunch today with a friend (my first time here and her second), as we planned to do some shopping nearby. I was told the sandwiches were great. I had the grilled Ruben sandwich, which was good, but it needed more 1000 island dressing and more cheese, which I could barely taste. At least the amount of corned beef was decent. The potato salad was very flavorful with a lot of mustard flavor - something different than the typical potato salads - but the portion was very small. I checked out the fresh meats. Some nice selections but were pretty expensive per pound. The filets looked beautiful. They also have a prepared frozen foods (lasagna, Shephard's pie, chicken pot pie, enchiladas, etc.) at reasonable prices. I may have to try a couple of these out. read more

The BEST (southern) chicken salad. Delicious house made chips and fresh food. Very happy with our first experience and we'll absolutely be back! read more

Wonderful lunch and service with a smile! I had the salmon blt (one if todays specials) with a side salad (blue cheese dressing). It was great! Also, bumped into a lot of familiar faces which was neat! My boys had the burger with a bowl of Texas chili (one of todays soup options). Can't wait to try more items on the menu. Everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. It was a little pricy ($50 for lunch for 3) but worth it (and we couldn't even finish all the food they gave us). read more

I went here with the primary goal of buying some really nice fresh meat. But they had more "premaid meals" and frozen meat. Now the main chef, he is a talented cook...there is no doubt about that. But I've been disappointed with my trips to this location...again, no knock on the chef's skills...I went to a cooking competition and I voted for him to win, I thought he did a better job then the ceviche cook read more

Pine Valley catered my husband's 70th birthday this past weekend. Payton was amazing in guiding me through my selections, amounts, and setting up at the clubhouse. The presentation was lovely and the food was out of this world. Everyone at the party said the same thing. There were only a few leftovers to have on Sunday while watching football. I was worried that I would have so much leftover, we invited the whole family over on Sunday. I am so thankful to Pine Valley Market and Payton for making it such a successful event. read more

My family came in from out of state for a family vacation. I only had other reviews and pictures to go off of when we picked Pine Valley to cater a meal for our family vacation. We were not disappointed. Peyton was easy to work with in building a tasty and yet affordable menu. The food was delicious and everyone was pleasant to work with! read more

I was told about this place from a local. Since I'm not from the area, I trust word of mouth. I've been to Wilmington at least two times prior to coming to this establishment. I had no idea that I had driven passed it numerous times. The place was a good size, very open, plenty of seating, and tons to look at. There was a display of BBQ sauces, wines, and other goodies around the perimeter. And on the opposite side, you had a display of quite a few items from their menu. They honestly serve just about everything here, and also do catering. First time here, I decided to keep it simple. I ordered their signature burger with their homemade chips. The burger came opened-faced, dry, and with the toppings on the side. Perfect for patrons to dress up the way they want to. Their homemade chips were light, not greasy and not coated with a ton of salt. If there is an option to try something homemade, then that's what I'll typically try. I was stuffed, but love banana pudding. So I ordered a slice of banana pudding cake to-go. Well, it didn't take long for me to dive into it after I left. As mentioned, they have quite a selection on their menu and have specials often. I would definitely come back to try something different. read more

Was disappointed when we went to your establishment at 3 pm in Saturday and the lady at the counter said that lunch stops at 3 pm and all you had was soups. It maybe should be clear on your website to say lunch stops at 3 pm but is open till 4 pm for shopping. read more

Pine valley market catered for us for a small gathering and they were so great to work with! I highly recommend them for your events. They made the whole process very easy from the platter selections to pickup. Every platter was beautiful and delicious, but I can't say enough about the mango cheddar savory cheesecake-I can't stop thinking about it! Now I have to go back to try the fig and blue cheese option! read more

The food at Pine Valley Market is always fresh and tasty . The ambiance is cozy and the service is excellent . I give it 5 stars !

I got the most outstanding cake for Thanksgiving dinner at Pine Valley Market this year. It was pumpkin spice caramel with incredible icing. It was beautiful to look at and so tasty. I would highly recommend read more

There is so much to say about Pine Valley Market I don't know where to begin. They offer off-site catering, frozen, pre-made dinners, a deli case, various soups throughout the day and a full service menu too. Add to all that a great wine selection and you've got the perfect place to pick up dinner for a friend who is sick or just had a baby, dinner for yourself, and a nice bottle of wine too. The staff are extremely personable and friendly and treat their customers like family. A real gem to the area! read more

Today was the second time I visited this cute market, and the first time I bought anything. Both times the staff was very friendly without the fake "I-have-to-smile-cause-I-work-here" kind of friendly. Consistently nice staff encourages me to come back. I bought three frozen prepared meals, eggplant parmesan, gumbo, and chicken enchiladas. Tonight I had the eggplant parm and it definitely exceeded my expectations. After reading the reviews here, I thought "How great could a frozen meal really be?" But after cooking it at home, it tasted really fresh and nicely prepared. And not too salty, which is a major reason why I avoid buying frozen meals at the grocery store. The prices ranged from $9-$12 for frozen meals, definitely worth the money. Just a tip, if you take it home straight from the market, it may take longer in the oven than indicated. The instructions said 350 degrees for 60-90 minutes, but it actually took about 2 hours. I imagine this is because the freezer there is colder than the average freezer. It had no time to thaw out much from the market to home to the oven. I cooked it with aluminum foil on top for 90 minutes, then took the foil off and cooked for a further 20 minutes. Next time I'm feeling lazy with dinner I will definitely be back! read more

Haven't ordered any of their prepared food yet but I do frequent their grocery section. Have been able to acquire harder to find selections then at the grocery store. Demi, veal, Lamb and duck to name a few. Friendly staff with all the answers to the questions you have. Have been, am now, and will continue to be a customer! read more

Brunch is one of my favorite things. There is a large group of friends that meets monthly and June's location was here at PVM. A few hours before our planned meet up someone reminded the group that it was also Father's day and we may need to change locations because of the size of the group. Someone in our group knows the owners well so she texted them and they agreed to save tables for our large party. I am not sure if they usually take reservations but it was very appreciated. Most of the group arrived on time and the tables were waiting. My wife has never been here before and she was really impressed with the prepared food, meat and wine selection. We both can't wait to go back to get a whole rabbit or duck breast to try out some new recipes. Anyway the vibe inside is quick and casual. You can help yourself to coffee or drinks and then order/pay at the counter. I decided on the sweet potato hash special, which had sausage and caramelized onions. It normally comes with eggs, grits and a biscuit but I don't' eat eggs so they were easily substituted for fresh fruit. My wife ordered the biscuits and gravy both plates were well priced and the quality was plenty to even have leftovers. I noticed when we ordered that a lot of the items were premade which is often a turn off for me because it has to be done right. PVM delivered! Not only was the food super fast but warm and fresh tasting. Our group of fifteen was all fed within 10 minutes of ordering. When I noticed my biscuit was missing I asked one of the employees walking around and it appeared instantly still warm from the oven. Overall it was crazy busy and the seating area is somewhat small but I was amazed out how seamlessly the staff cranked out food and reseat tables despite the holiday rush. I think my only complaint was the salt and pepper shakers because nothing would come out. I ended up unscrewing the tops to get out the seasoning. Tip: Ask for the real jam. One of the women in our group said to pass on the packaged jam and asked one of the employee's for the real stuff. OMG! I was basically drinking it with my biscuit it was that damn good. read more

Yum yum! One of our favorites in Wilmington! The BEST hummus in town, tastes homemade. Everything we've had always tasted amazing- the chicken pita sandwiches, chili, French fries, desserts, fresh ground beef, creative daily specials. Wonderful ladies doing an amazing job here! read more

Pine Valley Market has grown up from a primarily catering first/take out second establishment. I would go and pick up a twice baked horseradish potato for emergency sustenance when I was busy doing DIY projects. Well I noticed that in the last few years, PVM quietly had some "work" done. Like a Wilmywood Starlet. A nip here....(change of seating and increased floor plan) A tuck there.....(happy beachy paint colors) And a dedicated menu to carry you past the comfort food you can take out after dining. Now PVM is a solid dependable place to go for a quick bite or a treat. (They have cookies and cakes people!) I am a breakfast fiend so, I took my friend just the other day. and yes, was surprised yet again by some even more awesomeness. Real Homemade Southern Biscuits. Now that might seem like a no brainer, but some folks seem to have lost the art. We won't go there... let me just pause and celebrate.... whoo ha! Eggs were scrambled just the way each of us liked... me hard, my friend soft. Plenty of crispy bacon. And that Biscuit and compote on the table. Like a bottle of celebratory champagne. Light, airy and gone too soon. Pine Valley Market has got it goin' on. read more

Okay, these people won the Wilmington Copper Kettle last year. So they know how to cook real meals. Those are prepped and frozen for sale in coolers. But the sandwiches here are awesome! They are reasonably priced and don't forget dessert. Thank me later! read more

You can't beat PVM for catering or meat! Excellent prices, selection, and service. From your friends at Farmers Supply, thank you Pine Valley Market! read more

This is in response to the owner. Dear owner. I did not appreciate reaching through a mutual friend of mine through Facebook. There was no need to involve anyone. You should have just addressed me directly. Furthermore my reviews are 50 percent negative if had read all of them. I can appreciate you being a local small business but I also have concerns and I am allowed to post them. I'm sorry if did not like it but it does come with the territory when you own a small business. I have never had a friendly experience there. I have had good lunches but never a pleasant. Staff. One of my girlfriends that lives behind you used to come in all the time but doesn't anymore because of the same issue. I'm sorry. You might want to check the staff. I have a lot on my plate right now and can afford the time to keeping writing to you and our mutual friend. I am willing to come back in soon and see your changes. Thank you so much read more

Whoever makes those carryout plates is fantastic. The chicken pot pie and Shepherd's Pie is the best in the area.

We used PVM for a wedding at airlie gardens on 6/4/22. The food was AMAZING, they had so many good options to choose from. Christie was so professional and so easy to work with. The pimento cheese wontons were delicious, the poke station was a hit, and honestly not one food item was bad! Everything was prepared so well. we had plenty of alcohol and food to go around, no one left the wedding hungry or thirsty. read more

Brunch, lunch, or take out... it doesn't matter what you are looking for, you can't go wrong with Pine Valley Market. With daily specials and a variety of menu items ranging from gourmet hot dogs to club sandwiches, PVM offers something for everyone! They even have take out meals that you can stick in the oven at home for a quick and easy dinner for the family. One of my personal favorite things on the menu at PVM is their club. This club is more than enough food for one, offers quality deli cold cuts, and then the homemade chips are the perfect fit to accompany the sandwich! Whether you are seeking brunch, lunch, or a take home meal for the family, Pine Valley Market has what you need. They also sell local jams, sauces and wines which is an added bonus of PVM! read more

Awesome burger! I have eaten a variety of meals from here (Reuben, club) and I have also ordered some of their meal ready to go food (meat, sides I.E. potato salad). Excellent market/restaurant, I highly recommend it.... the burgers are amazing! read more

Our family received some warm, generous, and delish meals from Pine Valley Market! Our family was displaced by Hurricane Florence. It was wonderful to sit down and enjoy a fabulous meal with my kids! Everything has been so hectic and this took off the edge! If anyone wants some great food with heart try out Pine Valley Market! read more

This is a darling little market and café and for its size it produces some really special eats, innovative twists on old classic sandwiches, and the market, while smallish, has some items that are difficult to find elsewhere, such as four-packs of duck breast, bison, and other goodies. The atmosphere is homey as can be, the seating a mix of chairs and comfortable sofas, you can watch the chefs cook, shop around, have coffee, a meal, and enjoy some fun time here. PVM also carries Carolina Gold Rice and Charleston Gold Rice, reason enough for me to visit! Another reason I liked it was because of the staff, all friendly, but not the fake "McDonald's" smiles; these folks are truly enjoying what they do and it shows. Nice touches on the decorating, too. I would also suggest for those who don't want to cook on any given night to try their frozen, trayed entrees, some fresh beef, chicken, duck, whatever they have on display, all of which I saw when I was there is big time fresh. Duck breasts were available in package of four, frozen, for a ridiculously low price; always a bonus! I would recommend to all my Foodie friends without reservation. read more

Christi and her team are amazing people! They just catered my wedding, it was a Game of Thrones themed wedding and the food was PERFECTLY themed (and also incredibly delicious)! Everything was wonderful! I highly recommend PVM for any event! read more

We buy a lot of products and meals at PVM and are always very satisfied. Recently, the gumbo was fantastic. I want to say that yesterday's St Patrick's Day special corned beef plate was incredible and absolutely delicious. Hats off to your great, friendly and courteous staff for yet another job well done!. read more

We had the eggplant parmigiana and peach cobbler. Both were wonderful! Eggplant was light and flavorful and the cobbler - oh my!!!

We just had our daughter Jacquie's wedding catered by PVM on Nov 17, 2018. We also had her sister Allie's catered on May 16, 2014. Both were amazing. Each wedding was completely different and each time PVM exceeded our expectations. I cannot say enough about the quality of the food, presentation and professionalism of Christi and her crew. Both times everything was perfect in all aspects. I would highly recommend them. read more

This is my favorite market for preprepared food...It is well managed and the food is delicious. I brought my disabled hubby with me yesterday so he could see how system works (and get out of house). He was most impressed. read more

Excellent breakfasts. Out of this world potatoes and omelettes. Great food all around. Cool people run it.

I've only been to PVM once, but the vibes (and food) I got were so good that it's worth a 5. You can just tell when walking in the place that PVM is a local favorite. Not only has it one pretty much every "best of" Wilmington award for consecutive years, but they have a strong loyal client base (many of whom the employees were greeting by name), and seem to really do anything on behalf of the customer (customize orders, cater, etc). I had a shrimp BLT sandwich, which was a bit on the heavy side, but I'm a light eater. My daughter had the regular BLT, which was delicious, and my husband had a panini. They also have prepared dinners and salads that you can take home to supplement your own cooking, and a terrific selection of local wines and food products (grits anyone?), as well as a great butcher shop. Why the four stars? The seated area isn't fancy or huge, so I recommend this as a takeout place or to pick up items to prepare for a picnic on the beach. Eat in atmosphere isn't so great. read more
