I've been shopping at Buehler's occasionally for over five years. My daughter worked here for a…read morelittle while too, so I got to see both sides of the business. As far as produce goes, Buehler's always has a good selection of fresh fruits and vegetables. They keep their organic produce separate so it's easy to find. They also have a decent selection of fresh meat and fish, although I'd like to see an expanded variety at the butcher counter. They have an average selection of wine and beer also. A highlight at this location is the state liquor store inside, which is nice. They also have a small flower shop, a small post office, an attached Ace Hardware store, a dine-in restaurant, a salad bar during lunch hours, a soup bar most of the day, sushi, prepared meals, salads, pizzas, sandwiches, an excellent deli (which serves Boar's Head brand), a Chase Bank, a bakery, a daycare, a grocery pickup drive-thru, grocery delivery, wine tastings, dry cleaning, and a Starbuck's. Among other things, I frequent the post office, lunch time salad bar, and sushi bar. I don't know of any other grocery store that offers that much under one roof. That's a lot to manage!
The self checkout registers are in need of an upgrade and I think they should stop wasting paper by printing the credit card authorization slips. That's so 1990, plus the other Buehler's stores don't print them. When you use the self-checkout and pay with a card, you get two receipts - annoying.
The fresh salmon is pretty decent. Most days, they offer wild caught salmon. The steaks, chicken, pork chops, and lamb are all consistently good. I buy from the butcher frequently. They have the hard to find fresh herbs for gourmet cooking at home. They offer a couple different meads, which I occasionally purchase.
The prices are higher than most grocery stores, but Buehler's has a lot of overhead. A lot of people use the drive-thru to pick up their groceries, but I've never done that and probably never will. I'm happy Buehler's is in my neighborhood because they offer the things I need to cook meals at home that other stores, like Aldi's and Walmart, just don't carry.
