The Wegmans supermarket was opened at Hilltop Village Center, just 3 miles from our home, last month. Dave and I finally visited this premier grocer in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast United States today. Not an exaggeration to say that this supermarket is the best supermarket I have ever seen! Shopping at Wegmans is like a journey through a small, beautifully maintained, self-sustaining city. The food selection here is unparalleled, especially the cheese selection!
There are currently 7 Wegmans grocery stores in Virginia, but only the Alexandria location features The Pub by Wegmans, a full-service restaurant within the store. Consumer Reports repeatedly named Wegmans the best grocery store in America.
The Alexandria Wegmans, a 126,000 square-foot supermarket, is a part of Wegmans Food Markets chain with 85 stores in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland and Massachusetts. Founded in 1916 by John and Walter Wegman, the company continues to be owned and operated by the Wegman family. Below is the aireal picture of the Alexandria Wegmans.
