Review from David B.

Talk about manna from heaven....this place was transcendent and put this foodie on cloud nine.
I can see why Wegmans is rated number 1 by Consumer Reports in their listing for national grocery store chains. This place has EVERYTHING (except the kitchen sink). I can't vouch for the quality of their baked goods, prepared foods, store bread, etc. Still, if you need it, you can find it here. I was especially pleased to see their expanded area for international foods. In addition to the stuff I commonly see (Asian and Hispanic) I was pleased to see a whole section dedicated to the UK (HP sauce! PG Tips tea! Mushy Peas!).
Their prices seemed competitive and they offer a wide variety of in-store brands. I look forward to their expansion into New England or our local chains catching a clue from the competition. -

We're used to "Weggies:, as the Significant Other is from Upstate NY, the Ancestral Home of Danny Wegman, et. al.
When they came to Princeton, we were pleased to be able to get the 'Upstate Local Favorites" like Nance's Mustard, and Vernor's all year round. Our closest one is now in Mt. Laurel, but it closes at midnight.
This Warrington store is a 24/7. Most of the "SERVICE" areas (Asian Food Bar, Deli, Seafood, Sushi, etc.) seem to be closed by about 9 PM. Round about 12:30, it's just you and your cart and all the folks stocking the shelves. Then, they shut off half the lights. Hello? Do I get a Miner's Helmet or something?
They have all the usual stuff you'll find at any Wegman's. Pharmacy Section, Organic Section, Train driving around over the dairy section and scaring the crap out of those who have not been forewarned.
The floral section is beyond my budget. No, I don't want wilted flowers from a guy who beckons to me at a stop light, but I also don't want to drop $85 for an arrangment that either the kids or cat will eat or pee on. Most of the prepared foods cost about as much as a restaurant, so the 'savings' would be that you're not driving to another place to pick up take out.
Potties? Clean. And they're consistently voted one of the Top 100 Best Places to Work, so the staff seems pretty happy. I'll take the Weggies any day over an Acme or Giant. As close to a "Clemens" as one can get these days, and actually, a little nicer. -

I'm giving Wegman's a four star review for a few reasons: (1) It has a great Chinese Buffet and (2) they have a wide variety of loose tea.
Wegmans' a great place you can go for dinner after a long day at work. It has more than just Chinese too, there's a wide variety of prepared dinners, sushi, hot bar (think fried chicken), and cold bar (think hoagies). There's a 2nd floor where you can eat in a quaint, silent atmosphere.
The loose tea selection is great for a normal grocery store. Before discovering that Wegmans does loose tea, I'd drive up to 30 miles away to get some great loose tea. Wegmans' selection is not top notch for loose tea but they do offer a wide variety of teas that will please most tea fanatics.
They also have tons of tea cups, kettles, infusers and bagged tea. I was impressed with the variety. This section is located in the very back of the store and not to be confused with the coffee area in the front of the store, or the food aisle that sells boxed tea.
The reason the store's not getting a 5 is that it's too complicated for a simple grocery run. I went to pick up a few items and grab some tea and found the trip very difficult without knowing the layout of the store. I found myself wandering around a lot just trying to find where they may have a tub of cold mashed potatoes.
I'd recommend the and applaud the shear variety of groceries here, but that's balanced out by the fact that the number of groceries makes a simple food run seem a daunting task. -

My father in law pretty much LIVES at grocery stores. He's use $1.50 worth of gas to go to a store to save 50 cents on a dozen eggs. You get the idea...
But we all can agree on Wegman's. It is a pleasure to shop here and the selection is great. If you are a comparisson shopper (and in our family - you are!), you can also nab some good bargains here.
We got some terrific imported cheeses and yummy prepared foods here and made a gourmet picnic for a fraction of the cost of having it catered.
Wegman's also does a fairly good job of appetizing/catering of their own - but we prefer to just buy the componenets and assemble them ourselves on trays.
Wegman's is great. Wish there was one in Center City Philly! -

Hallelujah!
Finally there is a supermarket which carries a large organic listing of items and which is open 24 hours a day in the area!!! I have waited for this Rochester, NY born family grocer to get its act together and become more available to the greater Philadelphia area. Ladies and gentlemen...if you are a discerning shopper of the family groceries and you thought that you would have to compromise gourmet for value pricing...look no further. Wegman's is the answer. This location is complete with its signature "Market Cafe" so that you can actually eat lunch then get the groceries for home! There is a choclatier, a large cheesemonger section, and a fresh bakery to name a few things. IF you were wondering where you would get flowers to apologize to your significant other in the middle of the night...( don't act like you do not know what I mean) Wegman's has something for you too!
Prices are comparable if not better than most supermarkets which offer only a handful of the options at Wegman's. The store brand is high quality too. I cannot resist their ice cream selection ( 1/2 gallon at $1.89 is the regular price!) They also have a premium line by the pint that is still half the cost of others and all the quality. Local farms vend their fresh corn and tomatoes regularly and I also find it hard to resist the daily 5 or 6 prepared soups offered.
If only Wegman's could work it out where they came in even closer somehow to the city...
