We Have A Wegmans!

The day we've long waited for arrived ... on October 16, 2011 at 7 a.m., the Northborough Wegmans store opened!

Here she is! Although the parking lot was a little bit fuller when we arrived!
We spent about 2 hours just walking around and taking it all in. It's just as wonderful as we had hoped. There's a fantastic Market Cafe (with a Vegetarian Bar, Burrito Bar, AND a Food Bar!) There's a Wine, Beer, and Liquor store as well. The store is laid out a little bit different than the ones we went to in New York, but perhaps that's because it's bigger and better than the ones we left behind. Can you believe the Northborough store is actually 4,000 square feet BIGGER than the Pittsford store?

I took a few pictures as we entered the store but once inside it was just too crowded to take any more. After our first initial look around, we stopped to talk with the store manager - Kevin Russell - a wonderful guy that we immediately liked. Wegmans knew what they were doing when they picked him!

Wegmans knows how to make you feel special!

Beautiful entrance -- as usual!

It's just like being in Rochester !

It was so wonderful to see familiar packaging, displays, even just the reusable grocery bags were a sight for sore eyes. We felt like we were home again.

We left with a cart full of groceries -- including a sub, chicken wings, and a raspberry danish! We're hoping to stop by on Wednesday after I pick Dave up and try out their Food Bar.

Welcome Wegmans! How we've missed you :)
