The only thing that has changed over the years, aside from the name of this location recently, is the price of the Italian. At $1.39, it is still an unbeatable value for such a great sandwich. Fresh bread from the Italian bakery downtown combined with fresh cut meat and veggies. I can't even make it that cheaply at home and I used to WORK at a sandwich place! They've got amazing, fresh food, friendly staff and the best meat in town. Truly a value and must visit business!

Most of the parking is located to the side of the store. The gas line always seems to be long and it's because of the layout in my opinion.

The staff seemed very tired, but nice enough. The selection is decent. We found what we needed. If we are in the area, we will continue to go here. We would not go out of our way.

For anyone…read morewho loves fresh fruit and veg - and especially those of us who live on a plant-based diet - Blackie's is a yearlong oasis of beautiful, bountiful produce. Their dedication to locality and seasonality is appreciated and one of the many reasons why I love this spot. As is the customer service - they treat every customer like they're the most important customer in the entire world. I've witnessed them carry bags and boxes of produce elderly folks have purchased out to their car for them; I've also been on the receiving end of that kindness as the employees have patiently checked their "back room" for something I might specifically need that I can't find (sometimes this is as neurotic and trivial as an avocado that's "not so ripe"). I've even been called before by the folks who work here when something I needed finally came in. There's no need for them to overreach for me like that... but they do... and it seems so effortless! The selection here is usually amazing, too. As are the prices (though, I will admit: you can get cheaper tofu, cheese, and eggs elsewhere): avocados for .69 cents?! THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN MAINE!!! Enormous bags of fiddleheads from down the road for $2? Poblano peppers for mere change? Pumpkins for .29 to .49 cents a pound? It's true what you've heard: you can get a banana box full of fruits and veg for around $30ish (my total is always either $11 or $30... every. single. time). I don't know how they do it! Yes, Portland's farmers' markets are great. But... there's something very special, very hometown-feeling, about Blackie's (it doesn't hurt that they're far more budget-friendly, too) that I've yet to find elsewhere!

Convenient location since I stay at the Residence Inn right next to this Wal Mart in Auburn. Their groceries and meat section have been way better than expected. Decent and fresh produce like lettuce, peppers both jalapeno and serranos, onions both yellow and white, tomatoes, cilantro. Was pleasantly surprised at the t-bone steak quality. Grilled one, loved and did it again! Cool. Chicken and shrimp decent (get the large). Able to find most things but not everything I was looking for. For instance, always out of Hepa filters in smaller sizes, does not carry crustacean utensils like the little forks but had a nice shell cracker to open crab legs. Speaking of crab legs, the Jonah crab legs were a pleasant surprise so I had them twice. Not as good as florida stone crab legs but decent. Easy parking, in general friendly staff when you can find them. Good hours. Safe to shop there. Decent prices. All good.

And though we've enjoyed many of their outstanding meat cuts, a variety of local items they carry and their full liquor selections, I've come to Yelp today to sing the praises of their store made smoked salmon salad with salmon supplied from Maine's Duck Trap fisheries. This salad is first of all salmony, appropriately salty, chunky, and filled with tiny bits of red onion and celery and just enough mayo to hold it together. What a great find at this fun to shop at market. I eat it on Triscuits, corn chips, baby carrots, or to be embarrassingly honest...from my finger. I love it when I discover something previously unknown to me. And though I have been eating smoked salmon, lox/Nova since early childhood, I am so happy to have recently found this. Great job Bow Street Market! It's sold in various sized small tubs at $10.99/lb. and well worth this price.

I love local markets like this with fresh items and a deli when I travel and I'm so glad we found this.
