I loved the smaller sized packets... perfect for sampling some of the mixtures before buying a large bottle. The employees were knowledgeable and helpful. The store had a very homey, country feel.

Loving this store and recently joined as a member. Some of the prices are on the higher end, but…read moresome are actually lower than Wegmans or Tops depending on what you're looking for - sign up for their email newsletter to get the sale prices! Strong focus on local and/or organic, and great signage to bring attention to the local products and brands. The produce section is consistently high quality and fresh. You can bring your own containers to fill in the bulk section, and they have a scale right there to weigh your container before filling it - super easy and saves on packaging. I have not tried any of the prepared foods but I'm very happy with the groceries. Staff is always friendly and helpful. The only real downside is that the parking lot at this location is very tiny and a challenge to get in and out of.

This small shop has the absolute best meatballs I've ever had in my life. Their giant meatballs are…read moreloaded with so much flavor that you don't even need to put sauce on them, you could just eat them plain and enjoy them. However their sauce is also equally as amazing, so get that too. They also make fresh Italian sausage that is loaded with colorful fresh herbs and spices. As well as an olive salad that is surprisingly tasty. Besides these fresh items, they recently added a freezer to get their meatballs and sausage frozen, as well as raviolis and stuffed shells. They also have some non-perishable items in the store including sauce, pasta, and a few other items. The mother and son owners are friendly too. Highly recommend!!

Everything is homemade!

Today I just had to try the Thanksgiving Turkey Hoagie - it was as amazing as I dreamed it to be. Lots of Turkey, stuffing, gravy and cranberries on a Costanzo hoagie roll. They also have great Cannoli's - love that the shell stays crisp and the filling is flavorful....yum. I feel that I am now a regular. It is a weekly go to. Thanks Sam and Ann - wishing you great success!!

On this quick visit, I picked up an ice cream sandwich (insanely delicious), a giant cinnamon roll for my littles, and a Butter Block Pop-Tart. Every single item was a hit. I'm now fully invested in stalking Quokka Sweets, the queen of seasonally inspired ice cream creations. Her peanut butter caramel cream cheese sammie is still living rent-free in my head--so rich, creamy, salty, sweet, with just the right tang from the cream cheese, all sandwiched between two soft graham cracker blondies. Unreal. Also officially keeping tabs on Savage Wheat Project after my kids immediately said, "Let's eat more of their treats." And honestly... Butter Block's homemade Pop-Tarts? Say less. This place is basically a one-stop shop for anyone who appreciates a really good local treat.

This store was tricky for us to find because our GPS was off.  If you have trouble locating it,…read morejust go to Whole Foods and if you are facing the grocery store, the Buffalo Artisan Food Traders will be to your left, walking distance from the grocery store. You can also call the store and they will gladly give you directions. (I did this and they were so friendly on the phone). This place was loaded with lots of my favorite locally made foods - knishes from Bloom & Rose, M&M pickles, and cheese curds.  It basically is a spot where you can find a great majority of your favorites from farmers markets in the area.  I also suggest coming here if you are looking for gifts for those who are hard to buy for. Tip: You can place your order online and pickup.  We did this, but didn't get to the store until a few days later and it was not a problem. When we arrived, we just gave them our name and they handed over our bag.

I haven't seen full shelves like this since... well, maybe never, but certainly not since 2020. Whatever you're looking for, you will probably find it at this Tops. They had their ribbon cutting ceremony today (: I wasn't able to go) for their Grand Re-Opening. Their people must have worked all night, many nights. I was there Friday and not too much was different; no clue to the pending changes. I was also there Sunday and Voila! a whole new store! New floors, new layout, many new products, a larger Goya section, a brand new Flash Food section, new carts. I didn't use the restroom, but was told it is a gem. I will get back to this Tops in a day or two-- it's my local Tops-- and I will take photos. Sunday I was too stunned to think of it.

Service is always good, with thoughtful suggestions if I'm not certain exactly what I want. If they don't have what I want, no beating around the bush-a suggestion of who might have the item.
