A nice little local market and deli. We stopped in for lunch and grabbed the Italian on a baguette and the Ham & Swiss panini -- both were great, fresh and flavorful, exactly what you want when you just need a quick, easy meal. Portions were good. We each ate half and saved the other half for later. The store itself has a lot going for it too -- good produce, prepared foods, and a deli counter with plenty to choose from. Nice to have a neighborhood spot where you can grab quality ingredients or something quick and ready to eat. Glad we got to stop by and check it out. It's the kind of local spot you want to support, and we'll definitely be back to try more off the menu. read more

This boutique grocer is definitely on the pricier side, but everything I bought was really enjoyable. The location can be a bit tricky and parking is limited; but the store itself is so cute and has a really nice aesthetic. The staff were incredibly friendly and SO helpful. Their popular chicken tenders with honey mustard sauce are definitely worth trying... but the real star for me was the apple crisp!I It's SO good, especially when you heat it up. I'll definitely be going back whenever I'm craving that apple crisp :-) read more

Honey, Potomac Grocer is just a gem! Fresh seafood, delicious prepared foods, and the friendliest folks behind the counter. Everything tastes so good and the store always feels clean and welcoming. I've walked out happy every single time. Five stars without a doubt--highly recommend! read more

Crab cakes... don't hesitate... buy them! Also, best cocktail shrimp too! Everything is amazing here!

Good veggie pizza with quality cheese and topping. Veggie toppings (zucchini, asparagus, sweet bell peppers, onion.) were nicely smoky-flavored. read more

This is a cute, little grocery store with a deli, fresh meat & seafood, prepared food, wine etc. It can be a little pricey (but everything seems that way today, $10 for a small plain Caesar salad. But I got the Caprese sandwich ($14) on a baguette (toasted) and it's so good! I came back the next day for the same sandwich. Everyone is very polite and helpful as well. read more

Stopped by the Potomac Grocer while in the area for an appointment today. Surprisingly of all the food spots in the area, this was one of the highest Yelp ratings. Looking at the reviews, I saw that the place offered take-home meals as well as a deli. Apparently people loved the chipotle chicken salad sandwich, so I decided that was going to be the thing to try. I wasn't super blown away, I found the chicken to be a bit dry and bland. But I will say man did they PACK that sandwich with chicken! I mean they did not skimp! I also saw one review that mentioned getting it on a baguette so I did, although personally I found the bread to be a bit hard. BTW the chipotle is SPICY! But I do have a low spice tolerance so take that with a grain of salt. They had another option for the chicken salad which was the tarragon, as well as lots of other deli sandwiches. I was curious to try the soup of the day, potato leek soup, but decided not to get it. They had a variety of packaged soups and salads along the refrigerator. It seemed like a pretty popular place on a Sunday afternoon, so while I didn't love the chicken salad sandwich personally, maybe they have some other yummy options. read more

Potomac Grocer - Chicken Salad Sandwich on Baguette April 20, 2024 - Grocery Near Me - Potomac, Maryland

I really like this place. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is because of the high pricing. But the fish, meat & MTO stuff is really good

Yesterday I bought 2 pieces of the Dijon tarragon salmon which cost $35. When I arrived home to warm up the salmon, it was dry and tasted old. I hadn't been to Potomac grocer for a long time because of similar experiences. But I thought I'd try again. Won't be going back. The salmon was unedible but the $12 mashed potatoes were fine. I'm unsure why this place just can't get it together. read more

Potomac Grocer is phenomenal. The pizza is wonderfully baked with gooey elevated cheeses. The wedge salad is fresh and crisp with real bacon and blue cheese dressing :) Also, the staff are sweethearts. read more

This place isn't cheap, but the food is really good. Great option for prepared food to go. I love the turkey sandwich on a baguette. The made-to-order salads are tasty. My husband likes the Al Fresco one; it's spicy. My toddler enjoys their cocktail meatballs, guacamole, and mashed potatoes. We haven't tried much of their desserts yet -- I do like David's triple chocolate chip cookies. We always get one when we stop by. read more

Nice helpful staff Quality food Easy to park Significant selection of both fresh and cooked food. read more

Big fan of Max who runs the fish market section. Always advises me on what's a really great fish to buy with preparation suggestions as well! Tasty soups & premade items as well for when you want to put a tasty & quick meal on the table. read more

Small but excellent selections at a relatively ok price! Caesar salad is really the best to be had in Potomac. Several very good prepared food selections, a small but good selection of beer and wine. If you can't put together a pretty good meal from the selections ...you might need to move to a more diverse area! Price wise -- far better than "River Falls" on the other side of River Road. Friendly staff, good selections that taste great, what more could you want? read more

Love this place--a small but eclectic selection of really nice fish, steaks, and a prepared foods counter that kicks butt. Their takeaway pizzas and sandwiches are also great, as are their salads. People are very service-oriented, too. read more

Love this place. Always great! Been coming here for 10 years. Max really knows his Seafood . Their pre-made Entrees are fabulous. Chicken Parmigiana., Crab cakes, Meat Loaf and Citrus Salmon. Potato fingerlings, Potato Salad, Coke slaw. Can't go wrong for a good Sunday Dinner. Great employees. I am spoiled. Went by Organic Butcher in McLean and walked out. Terrible service there. read more

Sandwiches were amazing. Staff was helpful. My son and I located it while in the area looking for something locally owned.

The high quality butchered meats and seafood is so well prepared and fresh that it almost looks fake. The prepared foods, sandwiches, salads and pizza are also excellent. read more

For the amount I paid for these shrimp I'm absolutely disgusted. They're the DRYEST shrimp on planet Earth. I've never seen such nice jumbo shrimp be cooked to leather like this. I'm pretty sure they took the cocktail shrimp (which are obviously cooked) and grilled them (double cooked) because the guy reassured me that they were just cooked today when I asked if there were any fresher ones because I was skeptical. The char isn't even proper. It turns sandy in your mouth like you're chewing charcoal ash. I tried to be optimistic and drown them in cocktail sauce, but they still taste like gritty cardboard covered in sauce. I wish I could return them but I drove 40 minutes so it's not worth it. This was our go to picnic place and seafood dinner place but the whole family agrees, when you charge top dollar, you can't lie to the customer. Any chef would taste one and know they're ruined. read more

Just excellent. a wide variety of well prepared food and the meat and seafood selections are second to none. Friendly place.

New to potomac! Thank goodness there is a new place to eat around here! This place has definitely turned into my favorite place to eat in town, great for lunch. ALL the sandwiches are good with fresh soft bread. Fresh ingredients for the sandwiches and salads. The salad are delicious, fresh quality veggies, with homemade dressings. What I like is that the salads are unique and different from salads anywhere else. The Greek steak salad is a must try. They have different soups of the day and so far I've tried the chicken noodle and the corn crab chowder, both are delicious and not too salty. read more

This was a pleasant pit stop on the way to the Glenstone Museum. My son and I were satisfied after splitting a sub and chips. My son also enjoyed the soup of the day, and I had a caprese salad on the side, which wasn't special but still tasty. I'd stop back in to check out the rest of their selections. read more

Potomac Grocer is a lovely little grocery store located in the middle of Potomac. It is like an indoor farmer's market. Almost all of their items are locally grown or produced so what they have is very limited. They have: - Fresh, local produce, marinades, and milk from local dairy farms. - Ice cream/ gelato: They sell the best! Moorenkos and Talenti. Both are addictingly delicious! - Prepared ready-to-go food (Chicken dumplings, empanadas, pastas, salads, etc). They also make sandwiches and salads. Their tomato basil penne pasta with spinach is delicious! - Fresh meats and seafood section- great selection for grilling! They also sell frozen lobster tails for $20. - Baked goods: They sell some baked goods by Carla Hall. Try their Red Velvet Whoopie Pie! It's really good. The magic bar makes an awesome treat too! - Their dry goods shelf has Fisher's Popcorn and also gourmet dried pasta, dips, and sauces. It's on the pricey side of things, but everything is fresh and great quality. Every time I've been here, the employees seem very friendly. I like stopping by to grab a few items when I'm on my way to or from Great Falls. Definitely check this place out if you are in the area! read more

Wow...if I could give this place over five stars I would. First time stopping by today, and it definitely won't be the last. I can see myself shopping here on a consistent basis :-) I ordered the chipotle chicken salad on a baguette and it was delicious! It was well-seasoned, you can clearly taste the top-notch ingredients as everything is fresh and local. Excellent service! The folks working here are extremely friendly. read more

Absolute delightful and home cooked quality by chef for all. A great place to get your favorite holiday and gourmet dishes that no one has time to prefect. From brisket to turkey to deli. read more

Really great place for tasty treats. Have discovered this place (finally) after coming to MD since the mid 90's. They have a nice selection of beer and wine some of it chilled. Fresh meats and fish look really great as well. Prepared foods include things like chicken and citrus salmon as well as sides like soba noodles. They will make you a sandwich or pizza and have some unusual items like a jar of peaches in vanilla syrup. We've sampled all of this during the lockdown and it is all very solid. They manage well with safety protocol - masks and all - and stay friendly throughout. Check it out! read more

Potomac Grocer is truly a gem. Whether picking up a sandwich or pizza for lunch or getting a cut of fish for dinner, everything is always excellent. Service is world-class. read more

Excellent small grocery with excellent prepared food, especially their yummy crab cakes. Hubby & I went in for some small loin lamb chops, but when the person behind the counter didn't even know what that was ( reason for 4 stars rather than 5), we walked out with 2 crab cakes, corn salad, and a chopped salad.....all absolutely delish! I was impressed that the salad dressing came on the side. Only problem is that staff could have been more knowledgeable and went to help someone else without answering our questions. read more

Love this place. They have an outstanding and varied selection of prepared dishes, sides, desserts, and nice wines. If you're planning to entertain, you can take it easy, pick up everything, and serve a fabulous dinner that would have taken hours to prepare. Just hide the packaging read more

This place is so good!!! We've used them to cater pretty much everything over the past two years. Their steak, chicken, veggie dishes, etc are all crowd pleasers. Next time you host, make it easy and get some trays from this place read more

Meats and seafood way better than any where else, esp. halibut and standing rib roast Gluten free deserts are incredibly good, esp. the carrot cake Narrow selection means they are able to make all great quality read more

Great selection of cooked entrees and sandwiches. Gourmet market. Wish they would put in seating inside but they have two small tables outside. read more

Got chix parm, Milanese, spicy orzo, pesto penne chix, Brussel sprouts and butternut squash. All delicious!! Highly recommend

Great quality of fresh seafood and the fishmonger is very knowledgeable - he will prepare in all sorts of ways.

I swung by to grab lunch from Potomac Grocer, not quite knowing what they offered, but extremely happy with what I found. The market itself is small, but filled with high quality food. They offer counter with very fresh looking meats and seafood, freshly made sandwiches, some grocery products, and a large case in the middle of the market filled with prepared foods to-go and desserts (cakes, cookies, etc.) I ordered two avocado eggrolls and a small size of the smoked bacon and corn salad. Loved every bite of each dish. I'll definitely be back often for lunch and other goodies. Update: came in and got the Chipotle chicken salad sandwich for lunch and it was A++. This place keeps getting better and better. Everything is fresher and more creative than any other nearby market. read more

Their crab cakes, Asian slaw and flourless chocolate cake all were great - the chocolate cake was a model for its kind to aspire to.

Fun little grocery with a family feel that has an interesting selection of premade and made to order choices. I've had their pizza, salad, and a sandwich and all were great. Turn around time on the pizza is very quick and the crust is tremendous. And a great selection of desserts as well. Excellent service and willingness to support custom orders. Highly recommended if you need a quick meal! read more

I have visited virtually every fish monger in the DMV and Baltimore and Annapolis, going as far as Springfield in VA. We eat fish 5-6 times a week for dinner. While I will from time to time find an individual fish species that is very fresh at one of the other fishmongers - universally none of them compare to Potomac Grocer. Max the Fishmonger will have approximately 8-10 types of fish available. ALL of it is extremely fresh, the freshest available in the area. He will not accept anything but the best from his suppliers and routinely declines the fish that is presented to him. I will give a nod to the Lobster Maine-ia for their lobster as my go to place, but while they do have some very fresh fish from time to time, it does not compare to Potomac Grocer. If you love fish, and want the freshest fish in the entire area day in and day out - go to Potomac Grocer. read more

This is not your typical grocery story, it's a very small grocery store and only offers a small selection of foods. I have shopped here a few times now, and it's mainly for the yummy cookies and chicken salad. The Chipotle chicken salad is by far my favorite chicken salad, Also the fresh baked peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies are amazing. Some of the staff are friendly, some could work on customer service. I drove all the way from Fairfax, VA over the weekend. When I was ready to check out, there was someone in front of me who was being helped, I was next in line, and the cashier didn't even look at me, and asked the women behind me if she is ready for check out. read more
