I lived in Central NY for 12 years and Wegmans is the only grocery place I go to. And I was so happy when they opened one in Brooklyn. They have the best produce , the only grocery store I get my sushi , they have a lot of Vegan options and they have the best customer service.❤

As a former NY upstater, many of their stores have sit down areas where you can eat the freshly made foods. I'm guessing that the cost of floor space in Manhattan precludes this. Without a doubt, the best grocery chain in the Country.

There are Wegmans in Westchester, most NYC grocery stores are terrible, including the more upscale ones. The only one on level with Wegmans was Fairway and there are only 5 of them left.

I grew up with Wegmans in Rochester well before they hit their ready-made craze. Their real strong suit is their own brands. They have just about everything under that umbrella and it's price competitive, even against Walmart depending on the product.

Yes. I'm from Michigan but I have family in Pennsylvania and it was just a regular grocery store growing up until the last time I was out there when I was in college. Then they had all the other options but not at all locations. The smaller Wegman's that was closer was still just a grocery store. Interesting.

As a native Rochesterian, made me happy to see you review the new Wegmans. Congrats on getting one in Manhattan! It's always a quality supermarket with excellent selection/beer aisle/bakery/produce first....with takeaway food as an added bonus. Around here, they're known for having the best subs. (Gotta try the Danny's favorite with the spicy ham) And yes, for what it is the sushi is phenomenal. Enjoy!

The bakery was always great, and the cheese selection. When I lived near one I would go with the app and use the coupons to get discounts on grab and go food like sushi or salads. Their store brands were good too, it was more mid level price wise, so not as expensive as Whole Foods, without sacrificing quality. The pre-prepared fish/meat was always nice since it comes right in a container you can put in the oven. Was perfect when I was working weird hours and just wanted something fresh and easy.

Thanks for undertaking this visit UA. Wegman's has an excellent reputation outside of NYC. Our store, which is in a small city near the Poconos in PA, is the best supermarket we have. Sadly, the pizza is too weird here and mom and pop places do it better locally. The selection is very good for most items but I find the sandwiches merely okay. The produce is expensive but of higher quality than elsewhere in our town. The baked goods are also quite good but does not hold a candle to NYC fancy shops. All in all, I do like our Wegman's but it could use some modernizing and spiffing up. The NYC store is clearly a step above our's, but that should be expected outside of a big city environment. I look forward to your upcoming YT vids. Ciao!

We have a Wegman's in Ithaca NY and can never find a parking space closer to the store to accommodate my mobility issues. I really miss being able to shop there. Overwhelming variety and just plain great stuff. The bakery department has a huge brick oven. The meat department leaves one speechless with the variety. They have so many inventive salads and stuff. I really miss being able to shop there. I get my groceries now online from Walmart and pick them up without going in the store. Wish my local Wegman's had the same setup.

I'm going to check it out on Friday, looks really good. Do they take EBT? I called up and I found they have a cheese counter, and sell goat cheese. They also have grass feed meat. Ok for the best Pizza, you have to go to Pugly's on 191 street in the Bronx next to Fordham University. Sal is the owner. He's from Italy, and has. been in the Bronx for years, this is his last location. This video was great but, you just showed the take out section. I would like to see a video about the rest of the store. How good is their organic produce, the cheese counter, and meats. I'm also wondering if they are selling the Wild Planet seafood products. I like there canned pink salmon, but it's pricey at my Whole Foods in Yonkers at just over $7 a can.

I'm not crazy about their pizza but they're ready made food to take home and reheat is really good. I especially love their swedish meatballs! I go to mine once a week. Their flowers are really fresh too. People do take pride in working for such a great company. I have friends who work there and they love it.

I moved from Philly (where great grocery stores where plentiful) to Bethlehem, PA where fresh vegetables and a variety of vegetables & other groceries were not so plentiful. W made food shopping enjoyable again. Because of W, I can cook great food with fresh ingredients from a place where I can always find what I am looking for. I am so happy that Wegman's came into town.

Dear UA, As always, your content doesn’t disappoint! I have had the pleasure of visiting a Wegman’s, and I feel that you nailed the joy that we foodies feel in the presence of so much gorgeously presented food. My husband and I become more fond of you, and our respect for your talent grows, with each video we watch! So please understand that my observation comes from that place of fondness and respect. Please be cognizant of, dear UA, of your use of the word “like”. I have two grown children who are close to you in age and (I’d like to think) intellect, and they overuse “like” in their speech as well. I find myself doing it, too (not often but…..I get the appeal!). You are such a brilliant guy; I know that once you’ve become aware of when you are overusing “like” in your speech, you’ll modulate it. When I was your age and slogging through 10 feet of snow, etc., yada yada, blah blah, the term people overused when speaking was “Umm” or “Uhhh” and usually when they were searching for what they wanted to say. Teachers often would make students aware of this kind of thing-and make it painful enough through grading that we’d modulate our speech. Just saying that I get it and have been there. I know you can find an alternative! You might want to just review some of your content and draw your own conclusions, which I am quite sure you do anyway. All my best wishes for your future success! And thank you for your hard work and the effort you clearly put in, to make your content relevant and engaging.

I love Wegmans finally down in NC but not near enough to me. There were many in the DC where I used to live. I like the variety of good quality food. Their produce pricing is very good for such a large store. I enjoy having greater organic options. THeir baked goods are great. That NY store has to bring in a lot of customers for their size and I'm sure they will. Some Wegmans not only have seating area but a bar or small restaurant. CUstomer service is great. My favorite grocery store.

Your analysis on the pizza and sushi is spot on. This is coming from someone who’s had a Wegmans in their location their whole life. I haven’t tried their Panini’s but their subs are alright. Like there’s better sub and pizza shops in my area but it’s one of those things where you’d get it if you’re grocery shopping. It’s still good enough to eat.

Hi UA, that looked very good overall. In Los Angeles area the sorta equivalent would be Bristol Farms. An upscale market with very good sushi and fresh foods. That store you were in is a cut above anything here, I think. Another elite chain here is Gelson’s and they just opened a new stire, near me no less. I think they had Wegman’s in mind as some of the artwork I’m seeing is reminiscent of what you showed. It just opened, I’m going to have to check it out. I’ll see if I need a second mortgage to shop there. Fun video! Joe

Great review as always! I really enjoy all your content!! I’m fortunate to live in North Carolina where there are 3 Wegman’s in driving distance. For sure it’s pricey, but for some items you just can’t get them anywhere else!! If you have a location where you can make your own Poke Bowl, it’s the bomb! Being from upstate NY it’s nice to have a store where you can get great breads and other specialty items. And fyi, it took a month or so for my local Wegman’s to get their sushi rice dialed in…same as you it was too vinegary, but they finally got it right. Some of the premade stuff can be hit or miss on taste (always high quality) so I use the app to help make my choices.

I would say and I can't be certain, but if Wegman says it is Kobe beef then it's Kobe beef. Normally they don't lie. I am from Rochester, New York and I grew up with Wegmans. There's the number one employer in Rochester, New York. And they have been consistently ranked the best employer in the United States. And you are correct about not having seating....One thing about going to Wegmans if there is a seating area, it's fantastic. Get your food get your tray get your drinks sit down and eat with your family. Wegmans quality is second to none. It's a great experience. Whenever I get back to Rochester New York, I look forward to going to Wegmans. You can spend so much time in there.

The difference between Wegman's and Whole Foods is that their hot food bar and cold food bar typically looks good and tastes good. Whereas somehow WF's food can look fantastic and taste nothing like how it looks. I told my wife that those skinny little chefs and cooks at WF is bad sign. If you like Wegman's, try Stew Leonard's some time.

When I worked with my brother-in-law doing carpentry, we did a basement remodel for a neighbor of Wegmans prez Danny Wegman. Mrs. Wegman made us chocolate chip cookies. The friendliness of Wegmans' employees starts at the top.

I miss the hell out of Wegmans since moving from WNY to CO 7 years ago. But the prepared foods used to be a good value. I hear that is no longer the case.

I work at a the pizza department at Wegmans, they tell us to pop the bubbles because sometimes they can get really big. You can request thin crust if you get a fresh pie, but all the slices are gonna be thick crust

I'm from San Antonio and the home of HEB. The cult following for HEB is MUCH bigger than Wegmans. But I will say that Wegmans is definitely number 2!

Very fair. It's my favorite supermarket, it is expensive but overall the selection and quality is excellent, in addition to the people that work there. I cook quite a bit, so especially if you're a foodie or a chef, it's solid.

Wegmans is the best! They're own brand is better than name brand. It's competitively priced, its employees are always friendly, and their ready made food is legit. The only thing that could stop you from shopping there is if you're hooked on garbage food.

We have lots of Wegmans in the DC area. It's one of my favorite stores. And their sushi is awesome! Theres one in Alexandria, VA that has a sit down restaurant inside the store.

I love your video going into Wegmans, but I was disappointed because you didn’t show the bakery area at all or any of the candy section. Maybe you can go back there one day and do a video just on bakery items and treats and snacks. That is an amazing Wegmans. I wish we had them in Illinois.

I lived in Syracuse in 1980's. Sometimes I shopped in Price Chopper, but most of the time I shopped at Wegmans.

Come to Buffalo, or Rochester even Syracuse then you will have actually experienced a Wegmans as it's simply too tough to build a full Wegmans in Manhattan. Not going to lie his video annoyed me by all the doubt he had and he barely even showed the actual grocery store. He made this appear as we lunch spot more than what Wegmans really is. So when you are ready to full experience Wegmans head over to Western New York... also NEVER walk out of Wegmans with out one of their subs. Go Bills

Have heard a Wegman's is near our hotel in another state. Locally we have Publix and Whole Foods. More familiar with Publix because there are so many but rarely have shopped WF since there are only a few.
