Greenwood Grocery

I love the Blue Slate sandwich. It’s a 10/10, great size and flavor. Prices are steep for sandwiches but the quality is great and everything is so fresh. Tuna salad is great even for non fans. Everything really has tasted great so far. Staff, meh. They haven’t been the most attentive but haven’t been rude either, a little stand offish but I don’t really mind. The store is nice, they have a lot of variety of local products. It is pricey, be warned! But you can find some stuff, I like some caramels and dried fruit that are a decent price. They have picnic tables outside for you to eat at. Staff does offer silverware if eating there. In the last 4 months I’ve been 6 times.

My husband and I stop by here anytime we are in the area! Best sandwiches ever and we love stopping by to grab snacks and other local goodies for the road!

What a gem, fantastic sandwiches, they are all so good. The perfect bite to bring along for a vineyard day. High quality food items line the shelves throughout the store and some of the regions best wines and beers available for purchase. Great tinned fish selection, many unique and harder to find items, very well curated store. Definitely worth the stop if you are into food, wine or beer.

I don't live in the area but have been here a few times when passing through. Each time I've had to wait quite a bit longer than normal for their deli offerings, and although the food is great, I wouldn't say that it's "worth the wait". The cooks behind the scenes obviously know what they're doing, but the deli staff - the ones that should greet you with a smile but don't - are just short of being downright haughty. Yesterday I stopped again for food - won't make this mistake again - and the ruddy-faced girl behind the counter clearly thought from the get-go that she was somehow superior to me; barely communicating at all. Didn't ask for my name, didn't tell me that I would have to wait at all (I just asked for three already-cooked chimichangas not heated up b/c I planned on taking them home and re-heating them there. The chimichangas were sitting in plain sight. Just put them in a bag for me, right?) Instead she takes them to the kitchen, comes back out and doesn't say a thing about how long it might take, or that they'll call my name out (didn't ASK for my name - although I hear them call another customer's name out, a handsome young man - maybe she only caters to them, who knows) - and when, five minutes later I inquired about the food, she behaved as if I was stupid and should have known it would take some time and why don't I go shop while I wait? (another ten minutes, and why???). Is the wait simply a calculated ploy on management's part to get people to buy more of their priced-gouged items? Then, as if to execute her coup-de-tat, she stands at the checkout counter chatting with another staff member about nothing, with me waiting five feet from her, and after yet another five minutes, looks up at me and asks if I'm ready to check out. I don't see the food I ordered on the counter so I say yes, I'm just waiting on the... and I don't even get the word "chimichangas" out before she says, "the chimichangas, yes, I know", all put-out like. So... they were right there, and she did know I was the one waiting on them, and she just.... made me wait. Even longer.. What??? This girl needs to find a job at a snooty country club; she'd fit right in. I did purchase a Christmas gift as well, and when she saw it she said, oh I got one of these too, so cute. Right. Too late to redeem yourself, young lady. Go learn some manners. And respect. I don't know what management is thinking, but they need to hire better staff. Enough is enough. The public that bothers to stop at your store deserves better treatment. I won't go back.

The Wessex was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! Highly recommend.

There's places to go because you want to go there and then there's places like Greenwood Grocery. Location is great and building is cute. And with sandwiches piled with enough ingredients to have blitzed bachelorette wine tour groups screaming YES CHEF and OMG AOILI this place will be in business for a long time. Sadly the promise of cozy central VA vibes and food able to deliver a roundhouse kick to the tastebuds are not reality. The food is bland. The vibes are in shambles (they will tell your 3 year old they don't care if she pees her pants the bathroom is NOT available). There's too many better options in the area to be lured in by this tourist trap.

The area’s best kept secret. You can get amazing pots for your plants, local seasonal produce and bread, gifts for the cooking hobbyist in your life, and much more. Highlights: - Lunch. The sandwiches and deli case are great. Heads up that the kitchen is small, so there tends to be a wait. You can order sandwiches ahead, online. - Torres chips. My favorite are the Jamon iberico, and the black truffle flavors. - Kolsvart Swedish fish. Trust me. - Wine & beer selection is unmatched. IYKYK - Vermouth section is ::chef’s kiss:: - Tinned fish and vinegar selection (among other pantry staples) is exceptional - Rancho Gordo dried beans selection is 🔥 The staff is incredible - so lowkey and friendly. They’re close to several wineries, so, be sure to drop in (or plan to order lunch ahead). It’s also absolutely worth driving out of your way to go - I do it often :-)

Terrific little gourmet grocery store! Unusual, unique items. Offers sandwiches/deli items. AMAZING curried chicken salad! Highly recommend.

I know... sandwiches are expensive here, right? But if you're pressed on time and can't make a something at home, would you rather pay for full-on antibiotic and hormone meat sandwich at some fast food place delivered by a Sysco or US. food truck? Or just pay extra for a quality and healthier alternative? I absolutely recommend their Araucana sandwich. I totally recommend this place because they get their meats and produce from local farms such as, Polyface, Free Union, Wolf Creek Farm, just to name a few. I really get excited when I see these brands because I have been to these farms and I liked how the animals were raised. I usually buy the frozen meats and bones for my homemade broth. I know it's expensive...but I only get one body and one life... Just avoid the chips and other snacks, you can get it cheaper somewhere else.

I love the Blue Slate sandwich. It's a 10/10, great size and flavor. Prices are steep for sandwiches but the quality is great and everything is so fresh. Tuna salad is great even for non fans. Everything really has tasted great so far. Staff, meh. They haven't been the most attentive but haven't been rude either, a little stand offish but I don't really mind.

They have picnic tables outside for you to eat at. Staff does offer silverware if eating there. In the last 4 months I've been 6 times.

Underwhelming sandwich in size and quality. Very slow service and there were no other customers in the store.

My friends and I stop here each time we finish (or begin) a camping trip for our annual 151 booze tour! They have amazing sandwiches at their deli, an assortment of local produce and meat, also some very unique canned goods! (Jams, jelly's, Pickles, sauces, ect.) love this place for their wine selection as well!!! You should absolutely stop here if you want a local shop with a ton of hidden local gems.

Sandwiches are delicious. The bread is awesome. Makes the sammie! The place is a general store with high end foods and other sundry items. Lots of higher end wine options too. Ordering is a bit of a cluster, but it's worth it. Sit outside. They have a number of tables and it's perfect when the weather is cooperating. Very charming place.

The staff is condescending. The cashier was talking about me after I had paid and was exiting the store. The store is overpriced, unless you count the attitude. that is giving freely and in abundance.

Selection, service and ambiance were fantastic. So many different items . Prices may be on the more expensive side for some, however, I thought it was in line with similar type businesses in NoVA/DC.

Great sandwich variety. Lots of wine and beer for all pallets. Good service and responsive workers. Seating outside from porch to lawn.

The food is delicious and fresh! The sandwiches are huge, easy to share! Loved roaming the store for gourmet grocery items!

Wow! We were there for the first time today. Our sandwiches were fantastic! Can't wait to go back and try different ones! There is no inside seating, but there is outdoor seating available. Staff were friendly and helpful. Place looks like an old country store. Lots of gourmet jams, pickles, as well as wine and beer for sale as well. This will be my go-to lunch spot in Crozet area.

We were in the Shenandoah Valley and found this fantastic market! Everything you could possibly want for a gourmet picnic is stocked here. We gathered lots of provisions to take with us during our trip to the area! Plus, we enjoyed the best ice cream sandwiches ever--while sitting out in front at the adorable eating area. Don't miss this place!!

This little market is the shiznit. You aren't going to find pop tarts or really anything mass produced and I love it. Fantastic beer and wine selection and so many local foods. The sandwiches are flat out delicious and a great portion size. My husband and I usually split the Hampshire and it's enough for us both! I wish I lived closer but we absolutely stop when we are driving through! My only wish is that they would add restrooms....

We stopped here to grab a bite to-go on our way to a local winery. We ordered two made-to-order sandwiches and two side items from the deli case. The two girls working at the counter were friendly and informative. Our sandwiches were excellent, and my favorite thing was the beet salad from the deli case. I definitely thought the quality matched the price. We will be back next time we're in town!

Pricey but cool. For a small space, it's pretty packed with gourmet foods, wine and beer, plus gift and specialty items. You can find everything from chicken to beeswax candles and everything in between. Many of the items they sell I find for less at my local Whole Foods. On this trip, I bought some beer and wine, baguettes and local honey that I can't find at home. Really nice market. If I lived close by, I'd be here weekly (or maybe daily).

Gem of a grocer with fresh sandwiches, salads, and oodles of local and import wine and beer. All your unique and tasty picnic provisions can be sourced here. Truly in a class by itself in this neck of the woods. Bring your giant tote bag, and stock up for a lunch or a gathering you're hosting. This filled-to-the-rafters place has it all.

First of all when I asked for gluten free bread because I'm f*kin allergic THE STAFF LAUGHED IN MY FACE. like they wanted me to die. then they forgot my friend's sandwich. I had to purchase my own d*amn bread and make my own sandwich with they're insides. Overal poor experience

Absolutely love having this wonderful market nearby. They have wonderful friendly staff, truly gourmet sandwiches and the Reggie burger is just the best burger! Sometimes just get coffee here and unlike every other place on earth their gourmet coffee is only $1.50 for a large cup! This is the kind of retail market the world needs more of- a community vibe, fair prices, local and international fare, outdoor seating. Only thing missing is a bathroom haha. Still, we Love it!

Very Covid-cautious. Staff comes to car to get order and deliver and, paper throwaway menus used. Good sandwiches, good selection. If you can, order ahead of time...our group didn't know about this feature and, we waited 40 minutes for our six sandwiches.

Funky little joint, great sandwiches albeit pricey. Eclectic shopping experience while you wait. I took mine to go.

This place was ssooo cute. Very over crowded but they have tons of mom and pop homemade everything inside from candles, fo candies, moisturizer, snacks, straight from the farm veggies and meats. I wish I took a picture of the sandwhich we ordered it was straight GOODNESS, it was great, it was a simple turkey sandwhich but they put a "special sauce" on it that was phenom. The store front was very cute, wish I had room to purchase somethings for my condo.

Wonderful sandwiches and unique drink choices. Service is good but it's tight to wait for your sandwich to be made. They have picnic tables outside. Weekends are packed during lunch time.

Such a great store with lots of very unique and high quality products! The home made chocolate chip cookies were amazing. Tons of craft beers and wines. We will make this our go to stop from now on when we are in the area.

Love this little store. A bit pricey but they have yummy gourmet items & a great wine selection + plants during season.

This place is an absolute gem. The grocery store itself is very well-stocked with gourmet products, local wines, and a great beer selection. They also sell my favorite notebooks which was a pleasant surprise. The sandwich counter in the back is stellar, everything we had was really wonderful

Roast beef sandwich is delicious but there are no bathrooms ( port-a-potty in parking lot), wait time is very long for sandwiches (typically 20 + minutes) and the price is a little high for the size of the sandwich. Lots of goodies in the store you can buy so you don't get stuck waiting for your sandwich. Also no indoor seating despite it being winter. Lots of other options out there with better service. I've been here 5 times but probably my last.

From the outside, Greenwood Gourmet Grocery looks like one of those weird gardening shops. Once you get inside though, your nose is immediately filled with savory, delicious smells! I have been there twice, once for lunch during a work event that was held nearby, and again on route to some local vineyards. It is very close to King Family Vineyards, so I would definitely go again to pick up sandwiches before polo on Sundays. To order, you head to the back counter. I have tried the Riveria, the Orpington, and the Landrance. The Rivera is a Mediterranean inspired tuna sandwich, that is very moist and flavorful. The Orpington is a delicious chicken salad. The Landrance is basically a caprese with prosciutto, always a classic. My favorite sandwich has been the Orpington! The bread is super fresh and the ingredients super flavorful. They have a great beer selection, which is surprising given the exterior. They also have tons of unique snack and other food items. They also sell local meat there. The one setback is that it is a bit pricey to purchase the gourmet food items, but that is pretty typical everywhere.

This could have been a 5-star review but not being allowed to use the restroom in a deli type grocery after purchasing food and other items is a tad ridiculous. Soooo.....people are allowed to eat and drink on the provided picnic tables on premise but they may not get the relief of a natural urge?? Doesn't make sense :/ Otherwise, this shop offers tons of items for sale from local produce, local honey, and even local meats/cheeses. They have an extensive inventory of craft beer and a huge variety of wines that is comparable to any inner city shop, very impressive (but there are no prices on any of the bottles). They also have regular grocery items such as spices, sauces, and such. Then there are fresh breads, baked goods, and even some in-house deli items that look mouthwatering! Overall a really cool country store that is worth a quick stop but not for long, if you happen to need to pee.... don't bother.

We are so glad we found this local grocery store on our across country road trip! We wanted something to eat that wasn't your typical fast food. Since we had our two dogs with us we needed a place we can also swing in real quick. My husband went on to get sandwiches which they had stopped selling at 4pm but found some yummy prepared veggie and mozzarella salad and a warm chicken chimichanga with a yummy spicy sour cream sauce. They have a lot of cool craft beer and wine as well as snacking type prepared salads, crackers etc. So glad we found this gem!!!

Still not over the Berkshire sandwich I had. Flavor combination was incredible. If I lived nearby I would return often to try other items off of their very interesting menu. Will definitely return when in the area again.

This is my favorite place to stop as their selection of gourmet, local, unique foods is among the best. As I travel at least once a month through that area I always plan a list. The two stars are for service. The cashiers/food service people are dreadful. Unhelpful, and quite rude. If it wasn't for the food offerings I'd never go again. But yet I do. And I will. And just hope the service gets better. Interesting as I read their other reviews they are equally poor in service. You'd think they'd know????

Let me start by saying I've been to Greenwood probably a dozen times, so this is not a one off review. Bottom line if you're willing to wait, you'll get an excellent product, but read my full assessment before you take the plunge. If you're judging on service alone I would give 3 stars every time. If you arrive and order sandwiches it will mean 30 mins of waiting for your order. If you call ahead they will always tell you 20-25 minutes, but it will always be longer than that. So yeah... If you're going on price, it's 4 stars. It's a little high for sandwiches but not so much more than anywhere around town that I have a major issue. Now if you want sundries, it's super expensive. But what you really want to know is about the food. The food is 5 stars. Seriously they have an amazing selection of sandwiches that are made fresh and beer and wine from all over the state.

This place is so adorable and quaint. They offer such a wide variety of craft beers and local wines, organic and local meats, cheeses, produce, you name it! They also offer a wide and different variety of kombucha and Stumptown cold brew- one of my favorites! Pricey, but worth it. You're getting the quality you're paying for. The only reason they don't have five stars is because they don't offer public restrooms. If you're going to operate as a grocer, store, and restaurant that should be available to paying customers.

I was excited to visit the market, because quite a few friends had raved about it, and I every time I passed it, I had the urge to stop. Finally made it Saturday afternoon to order sandwiches for our Girl's Wine Weekend. The store is adorable and the sandwiches were fine- BUT the service snooty and downright insulting. The ordering of our sandwiches went well, but when it was time to pay, our customer "service" experience went south. First, when our name was called, my friend confirmed her name, but the cashier didn't hear her. Impatient, another employee - let's call her "Bangs" called it a second time. My friend didn't want to startle other customers, so she worked her way up to register (it was busy) and told them it was her order. Bangs, with an attitude said, "I wanted to make sure the women who ordered the sandwiches didn't leave". Ummmm- why would we leave? Then we told them we would pay separately, but she could put our stuff in one bag. We had ordered sides of mayo for the sandwiches and Bangs stared at us and said, "as long as they pay for the mayo, I don't care". Now, I may have a tiny bit of an attitude, but that was strike two. First you think we ordered 5 sandwiches and left, and now you think we won't pay for the mayo? Oh- and then they didn't have the fifth sandwich we ordered. Bangs again- "did one of you ladies take the sandwich?" Are you kidding me? Strike three. I couldn't keep quiet. "We didn't steal the sandwich and don't worry, we will pay you for it all- including the 75cent mayo- you'll get your money". I had to walk out. If we hadn't already paid, I would have left. They didn't make it, so we had to wait. And the icing on the cake... when we opened the bags later that day- lo and behold- I didn't get the sandwich I ordered. They loaded the completely wrong sandwich in the bag. Rude, insulting, snooty employee and wrong order. We won't be back- or recommend them again.

Fantastically fantastic. What a sweet family that runs this place. Ellie is a darling. The food is unique and phenomenal. The Curried Chicken Salad, Sweet Potato Salad, the Cheesesteak, the pretzely croissant creation, the rustic charm of this whole beautiful place. I wish I lived nearby.

Yum! The hubs and I stopped by the Greenwood Gourmet Grocery to check out their sandwiches. It was raining hard, so it was a nice way to step out from the dreariness and check out this local gourmet grocery out. When you step inside, they had little gifts, garden decor, some local produce, cheeses, a wine section, as well as a little section that offered prepared foods, sandwiches, and salads. All the sandwiches are made fresh to-order, which I really appreciated! I was able to try the Araucana, which was homemade farm-fresh egg salad with crispy slices of Virginia bacon and wonderfully sliced fresh local tomatoes. Holy cow, this was one of the best egg salad sandwiches I've had!!! It was creamy with chunks of egg that was well-seasoned; the addition of the VA bacon that was perfectly cooked added a nice saltiness to it; the tomatoes were very fresh and ripe, and added a nice 'healthy' aspect to it. It came on this lovely crusty country bread (they use Albemarle Baking Co. and Goodwin Creek Farm breads) that was just so delicious and held the ingredients well! I'd love to try out their other sandwiches, as I love the fact that they support local farms, and the freshness and the deliciousness really shows! One of the employees behind the counter was a little stiff, but the one that checked us out at the cash register was very friendly and nice, and even included an ample amount of napkins. Definitely check this little place out for delicious sandwiches; they even have specials posted on their site! :D +Araucana - best egg salad sandwich :D +uses local produce as their ingredients :D +gourmet grocery featuring local produce +plenty of parking

Greenwood Gourmet is locally owned and operated place has local written all over it. This place has wine, beer, tea, coffee, sandwiches, cheese, fruits and vegetables and of course much of it local made and produced. On the shelves is much of the items to make an incredible gourmet dish at your home using locally produced meat or cheese. But they also have many salads or lasagna or bread pudding available in the glass case. If you want something else other than food they do sell pumpkins, gourds, pottery, bird feeders or anything to spice up your yard.

Owner recommended some local wines as I was unfamiliar with the area. All the sandwiches we ordered where delicious. I got the steak with was very tasty with lots of different flavors, friend got the one with sweet potatoes that was very flavorful with a good spicy kick to it.My kids really enjoyed the pulled pork

Great inventory but poor customer service for such high prices. Our wait time for sandwiches has been twice as long as what we'd been told when ordering for multiple visits. This wouldn't be as big of a deal if they allowed customers to use the restrooms, but waiting that long for a small $10 sandwich is crazy when there aren't even facilities for us to use.

Outstanding sandwiches. Go here to get a picnic meal for the VA wineries! We got the Melrose and Cheesesteak sandwiches today with black truffled potato chips. The romesco and onion jam complemented the roasted Wolf Creek beef so nicely on my cheesesteak. Most delicious food I've had during our trip in VA wine country - reminds me of the gourmet food culture in Napa Valley. Highly recommend. 10/10!

No kidding! I have frequented Greenwood because of their local craft beers, ciders, wines, breads, and curry chicken salad. But...Never posted a yelp review. Until now. Thai chicken curry. Add a few drops of soy sauce and this brings me back to Macau. It's a bit spicier...hotter...but its the chef's signature. I'll definitely be coming back for more. Next time a medium. Add some Azorian garlic clams and beef stew and I'm in heaven.

Just happened to pass by and saw the line of cars out front. Pulled a quick u-turn and found a perfect lunch. Delicious sandwich on crusty baguette, a fresh salad, and a gorgeous outdoor space to enjoy it in. Plus the coffee was delicious!

One of my favorite spots to stop! The sandwiches are fresh and delicious. They usually have about two special sandwiches each day with other gourmet sides you can order behind the counter. The hours are until 3 PM you can order food so plan ahead! Also for awareness if you stop by the customer service is subpar and the coffee machine is broken so be prepared for that. Otherwise it's a great local spot or destination to stop and check out.

Greenwood Gourmet Grocery is such a cool spot! Bonus points that it is close to me and, for anyone in C'Ville pretty much, it is on your way to/from great breweries/ wineries on Nelson 151 depending on which way you go! This little deli-style shop includes an extensive wine and beer selection with tons of unique, local options, a coffee bar that also serves local kombucha, delicious sandwiches and homemade baked goods, gourmet chocolates, ice cream, snacks, including a lot of organic options, and local meats as well! Overall, there's everything gourmet and local to C'Ville you could think of. Plus, it is cute, and sometimes in the lot next door, like on most Sundays, you can find Potter's Craft Cider posted up for samples and pours. The only reason why this gets four stars instead of five is because the prices feel a little steep on some items. I know it is coined "gourmet," and the stuff they sell truly is, so it is bound to be a little pricier, but some items (not all by any means) do just feel overpriced. For example, a small bag of chips seems pricier than what you could get at a different grocery store. Regardless, this place is a must-stop if you happen to be passing by!

Fantastic little spot with all the necessities for gourmet cooking! Some things are a little pricey, but it's convenient if you live nearby. I love the selection of locally made/grown things if you like to support local. Will stop in here all the time for little goods! Hours are great too they are usually open when I suspect they might not be anymore!

We stopped by Greenwood Grocery at the advice of a friend before attending a Polo match at King Family Vineyards. The place was amazing. There seemed to be plenty of parking, although it was right along the road. Once we were parked, we were amazed by all the different things there are to buy outside. They had some specialty pumpkins that are often hard to find back here in Richmond. Once inside, we were again blown away by the variety. Plenty of specialty wines and beers, but we headed for the counter, as we were there for sandwiches. All three of us thought our sandwiches were great. My only complaint is they were on the pricey side. We also left with two bottles of wine, one of which was the cheapest we could find in the store ($10). One last thing I should mention: The freezers did appear a little frosty, with the product covered in ice - but I am not sure if that was a one time thing, or if the product was truly that old. Overall, it's an awesome place, and I will certainly stop there again. Just be prepared to spend a little more than your usual quick stop grocery.

A grocery with a lot of local options -- this place was the perfect place to get a sandwich after a hike and before heading to a winery.

Best egg salad sandwich on the planet. Great local offerings. Great beer selection. Great little grocery section. They are not expensive! They sell HIGH quality products paired with HIGH quality service. You get what you pay for.

Great grocery story if you like fancy cheeses and delicious sandwiches. Best cheese steak I have had in my life. It was a special today. The place is kind of expensive, but that's because it is all high quality stuff. Highly recommend

What a wonderful slice of everything nice! Too many gourmet and unique food items, wines and beers, to individually crafted heigh quality products to review here. If you are ever in route to the local wineries or just traveling I64 between C-Ville and the Shenandoah Valley, you would be doing yourself a disservice to your senses if you didn't stop and get lost in the amazing world of the Greenwood Gourmet Grocery! And to top it off, they offer the best deli sandwiches in the region! Bar none! Thanks Nina!
