I read that this is a good place to find a great bottle of wine, and it's true. Old World Market will satisfy the indulgent, bougie food lover in you -- the food lover who likes pretty charcuterie boards made from thinly sliced prosciutto shaped into flowers. And it will indulge the wine lover in you -- the one who likes a good glass of wine. It's a small store. Surprisingly small, actually! But along with wine and meats and cheeses, you'll find specialty food items like Swedish Pippi Longstocking candy (what?), pasta in all shapes and sizes, cookies, teas, oils and lots of imported goodies. You'll mostly find food imported from Europe: Italy and Nordic countries, specifically. They offer readymade sandwiches and small charcuterie boxes to go, for those of us who want to live deliciously but also have stuff to do elsewhere. Basically, this is a great place to visit to find something delectable to eat or drink in Valparaiso.

Great selection of meats and cheeses! Gem of a find. Will definitely be going back soonread more

My grandson recently left for college and he loves jerky so I thought I'd start making it again. Last week when I went in to Beef Mart and wasn't sure what cut of meat to get but the woman who helped me was very nice and one of the butchers suggested what cut of meat to buy and gladly cut it for me. I was charged $8.99/pound. Today I went in asking for the same thing. The woman at the counter (not the same one as last week) acted like I was a pain. The man who cut the meat was very rude and was obviously put out that I was asking for such a service. (The same thing that I got last week.) Today they charged me $10.99/pound for the exact same product and the same service that I paid $8.99/pound for last week. If you're going to run a business, be friendly and consistent. Consistency was lacking in the attitude of those who helped me and the price that I paid. Is $2.00/pound going to change my life style....no. However, I sure don't need to go spend money at an establishment where I am made to feel like I'm a bother.

One of my daughters friends ordered flowers from a local floral shop & when she got the bouquet home she noticed the flowers were in horrible condition and some of the flowers looked brown & wilted. They closed early & weren't about to help. I took them to Stracks on calumet for her, while she was getting her hair done. Even though Tracey had a full day due to Valparaiso's homecoming, she asked us to come back in a half an hour and promised to fix them. She did more than that! They looked absolutely beautiful she refreshed them, rearrange them and even added some gold accents! The bouquet was truly beautiful! And she honestly saved the day!

This next comment is more about the customers than the store itself but they could do a better job cleaning up the litter in the parking lot. I am so disappointed in people that litter their community. They complain when places look trashy and it lowers property values. I usually pick up a few pieces of litter when walking from my car to the store. The store needs to police the parking lot on a daily basis so it does not pollute our environment

Ever since it was taken overband even before, their prices are ridiculous. Do people forget that you have to bag your own groceries? Shouldn't that savings in labor cots be passed onto us consumers? Their prices are just as high as every other grocery store, if not higher. Their meat prices are insane. Yes, I know. Meat prices are high everywhere, but their prices are ridiculous. WHY do we pay the same prices or even higher prices, than stores with baggers? They run a few good sales to get you into the store. Then they slam you with high prices on everything else. HY Vee is a huge conglomerate. They buy in massive bulk but fail to pass the savings onto their customers. Why? Because they know people in Valpo will pay the high prices. They take advatage of that.
