My favorite grocery store in town. Friendly employees. Lot's of quality products a good prices. I love that they sell Farmer Johns garden starts.
Annie AJune 17, 201710 stars. I love this place. Best bulk grains and beans and nuts and spices and tea. Natural healthcare stuff. Local produce and eggs and locally roasted coffee. Local tempeh, even. Can't go wrong.
Robert JonesJanuary 15, 2012The only place in town (aside from the farmer's market) that you can get good local meats! Also great beer, wine, and bulk foods! No reason to shop anywhere else in town.
Great beer and cheap wine. Good selection of meats, fish, BBQ. Some produce is super fresh, some looks rotten. Which is which changes: don't go with a shopping list or you'll be disappointed.
Gary McLendonJune 19, 2014A Gainesville landmark! Wonderful meat and a terrific fresh assortment of fruits and vegetables!
My cashier mentioned a spot in front of the apples where the produce department will park carts full of discounted produce without much shelf life left. Sounds like a cheaper way to buy dinner...
Charlsie 🍡May 14, 2013Great supermarket. Huge selection of wine. Amazing fresh breads available. Wish this was in Atlanta!
David DavisonJanuary 23, 2013Great local produce. Amazing beer selection. Tried a dandelion ale today. Raw milk for the "pets"- GerryFebruary 13, 2014Found a great organic coffee in a flavor I could not find at other local stores. Not all the produce is organic, but I think they let you know which is.
- Mike PolkFebruary 27, 2012Not only is Ward's a great place to get local food, but it hides a great selection of beers from Bell's to Cigar City.
- Andrew ClausJuly 22, 2010Everything is awesome here. One of the last locally owned grocery stores left anywhere. Best beer selection for miles. It is some what like a Whole Foods but better.
Take advantage of the organic/local produce and dried goods. Best supermarket in town, by far. Great staff.
They have YUMMY sweet tea!!!! Also the best cuts of steak and crab legs!
CMC Apartments ManagerJune 20, 2012Get fresh local food here. The produce is always fresh and delicious!
You can buy a bunch of specific grains by weight and even spices by the gram.
