Wegmans is no where near as good as Whole Foods and it’s always crowded. The aisles are narrow and everything is overpriced. I rarely shop there. It’s completely overhyped. And their milk sucks!


The Wegman’s stores that I’ve been to (about 3) are quite a lot better than the Whole Foods stores that I’ve been to (about 8), at least in their current form. I used to be a total fan of Whole Foods, and, before that, of Fresh Fields. They gradually shifted the mix of their produce from mostly organic to mostly conventional products, and, at least at the store I frequent the most, neither the variety nor the quality is quite what it used to be, although many of the 365 brand products are still good values. Once the Wegman’s opens, I’ll shift my big shops to Wegman’s, even though it will be less convenient.



Only if you live nearby!

Is it the entire space of the old Fannie building?

It’s so excellent that DC has banned anyone who lives more than a mile away from shopping there for the first year.

I hope it’s better than the new Alexandria one. That one is small and not as diverse as the more suburban ones. Hopeful though!!! Love me a Wegmans.
