They also have some toiletry items in case you forgot something, and a nice beer and wine selection. Prices are very reasonable, store is clean and well organized. We spoke Italian, but from what I could tell the staff was at least bilingual (Italian-English).

Having a place in town for a couple weeks, I was happily surprised on my first visit as to how reasonable the grocery prices are. The main reason is that the locals shop here too and having the advantage of it being a co-op, the prices of everything are kept reasonably low. The dry goods, fresh meats, cheeses, local produce are all top notch. Open everyday, but closed between 1100 and 1600.

Good wine selection, fruits and veggies. Also fresh fish, seafood and meat counter. We bought some nice Bottarga, lots of canned tuna and anchovies. Seafood broth. Fresh chicken and beef. Veggies and salad. Some milk and soda. Also needed a cookie box - and found it here. Quality was good, prices are fair. You pay at the cashier (cash or card) or you can you the convenient self-checkout. Accepts even small coins or also cards. The shop might look a bit dark and dated inside, but it was a good shopping experience and we've found everything we've needed.

Just a regular grocery with long lines. When I found my 150 ml of "Anna" water that tasted like…read moreDasani or Aquafina, I was so relieved. It's the one with the baby in the circle if you happen to be a water snob like me. It's a challenge to find decent tasting bottled water throughout Italy. So much of the bottled water tastes odd, even if the tap water is fine to drink. I was told by a reliable American that the best water thus far had been in Firenze, and the worst was in Venezia. At any rate, it's better than SoCal water which I won't touch. I can't help it that I was always spoiled with good water my whole life! Anyway, they had tons of my water here, all for--get this--30 cents for a big bottle. No wonder the Italians complain about the prices of our drinks! That's how they should be priced. I didn't even get a chance to check out the wine and cheese but I was happy. The self serve check out was faster than SoCal, too which is why this has to be a four!

They also have a really top notch deli in the back which has world class prosciutto, speck, salami, the whole nine yards as well as a great assortment of cheeses. I love how Italians get top quality cured meats and fresh cheeses in every rinky dinky store but we Americans can usually only get Boars Head at best. Lucky bastards. Five stars for food shopping in Lavagna.
