“Iykyk Trader Joe's never did me wrong. I love their prices and everything is always on point. I wish they sold ice though too lol perfect place to grab a bottle of wine or ciders, cheese, meats and crackers. For all under $20 and all very good quality. The staff are always cool and ready to help you. I always need help when I'm in there lol”
“I love Rodman’s! There is always something new to find. Their selection of coffee and tea is excellent. I also have to give kudos that they have Bethesda Bagels in the bread section now! As well as baguettes from Bread Furst. Saves me a trip. Thank you!!”

“I love wandering around in Rice Market - it feels like entering another world, with an incredibly comprehensive and fun selection of beautifully arranged food and home products. I work nearby and come for the hot prepared grab-and-go food, which tastes more like grandma's cooking than a restaurant. In cold weather, the outside terrace is empty, so you can enjoy delicious hot food in the refreshing cold and people watch for 10-15 minutes.”
“Flowers! Flowers! Flowers! And I love the produce, goat milk, large chocolate bars, and tons of other stuff. I first shopped at Trader Joe's in 1979 in Santa Monica, CA.”
“Already an amazing Trader Joe’s, but today on a busy Sunday Laj was absolutely fantastic. She genuinely connected with me during my check out while also packing my items so carefully but quickly. Truly made my Sunday”
“The arrival of Trader Joe's to the Freidnship Heights is a significant , long waited, improvement to the quality of life in the neighborhood. Expected to provide some downwards pressure on pricing policies of the local Whole foods market and expand variability in available supply, including from imports. Taking into account recent opening of Lydl nearby, the local grocery situation becomes even more enjoyable.”
“The best lil market for basics and treats. If you need special items it’s probably best to go elsewhere but it’s a great local spot that’s welcoming and is always a pleasure to visit”
“I love our Trader Joe's on 25th street NW in Washington DC. Today, before snowstorm, staff were still helpful and friendly, willing to check for items. As they always do.
Got the essentials as you can see.
Thank you!!”
“Very good small supermarket, with fresh produce and lots of Latin American products. The papaya there was the best I’ve ever had in DC. Let’s support these small stores that make DC streets more interesting!”
“Parking on the 3rd floor in the back of the bldg. Elevator down to store in the back of the garage, over the store, and you can validate for 90min on a little machine after you're done checking out. There's a Naked Lunch there, which is missing from the one closest to my house. Yum! Groceries are on the pricey side, and there is a bigger variety of stuff that I typically buy.”

“It's a great convenience store with fair pricing. There is also a chef(BigChef) at this store that cooks food ? fresh and in front you. There's also fresh coffee available.”
“Amazing little shop. Went in to check it out and found out they had so many different herbs. Walked out with some gensing. If you're ever in need of some Chinese medicine or want to learn little more about different things go check out this place and see what they have for your health.
They store also has a bunch of great food/ snack options. Also plant pots in the back and other good finds to check out.”
“Wonderful deli and staff. Owners are so cordial and helpful. Really close by .. it helps to live across the alley? Great assortment of everything in groceries too. Very reasonably priced. Takes cash, credit/debit cards. P S If you love Indiana Popcorn, it's here!”
“Love this quaint little neighborhood grocery — Magruder’s is a total throwback in the best way. It still looks and feels like a real old-school market, and that’s exactly the charm. The produce is the star: if I can’t make it to a farmer’s market, this is where I head, because the fruits and veggies are amazingly well-priced and consistently fresh. It’s also way less crowded than Safeway or Whole Foods, which makes the whole trip feel easy instead of exhausting.
They also run great weekly specials on basics like milk and eggs, and the deli section is excellent — including a surprisingly strong fish selection. The wine section is huge (almost half the store), which is kind of funny since I don’t even drink, but it’s still impressive and adds to that classic neighborhood-market vibe. Packaged foods and canned goods aren’t as competitively priced and the variety is limited, but that’s not why I come here. For fresh organic vegetables, a standout deli, better-than-big-box prices on essentials, and a cozy throwback feel, Magruder’s is a gem.”
“Great selection of produce at fantastic prices. This store has become my go to for grocery shopping. In addition to the produce, you can find things that can be difficult to find elsewhere, such as crema, dried peppers, and other kinds of spices/marinades. The people there are friendly and always willing to help.”
“I love that WR WF always plays reggae! Peter Tosh in the morning, what could be better. Not to mention some of the kind and attentive staff. Great spirit in this store. Thank you”
“Live what they offer... healthy, known and unknown...things I need to try. I ordered some items...the salad was fresh, the wings with mambo sauce were perfectly cooked. The salmon was too salty and oily bottom, rice hard and old and the broccoli also salty and oily...soaked through the container and the bag. Maybe a little wax paper or plastic on the bottom... otherwise I like the store and will be back.”
“I really enjoy shopping here because it is such a great place to find healthy, high-quality groceries and unique natural products. The selection is always fresh, and I appreciate the emphasis on eco-friendly items. It has a nice, local community feel that makes grocery shopping feel less like a chore and more like a pleasant experience.”
“This grocery store offers an elegant shopping experience with easy access. There are always great deals on a variety of items, making it a top choice for both convenience and value”
“Had to make a quick dinner decision. No hot wings, baked chickens etc. Justin boxed frozen dinners. No family meals. Single frozen dinners. Accepts EBT but not the Senior Healthy Benefits UCard. The Convenience Store is in an ALL income area. Home owners, renters, and Seniors. Most people are on a fixed income and Seniors could buy more if they had more fresh fruits and veggies and accepted the Senior Benefit Card. The younger home owners have a great selection of wines.”
“Very passable deli. Have ordered wine and sandwiches here. Found it to be very solid and very good overall service and food options. very low price and decent quality - would recommend for people who need a quick bite!”
“I bought weekly groceries: fresh produces, frozen entrees & Brussel sprouts, ginger snaps [for a friend], Tucanany sourdough bread, chicken thins & ground beef.”
“Each Peach is such a cute find. Definitely pricey, but a great spot for good quality produce, dairy, and extra things such as olive oil, spices, specialty chocolates, coffee, etc. Staff is also super friendly and helpful!”
“Bolling Commissary is always a clean, well-kept spot that has all your basic grocery needs. I used to shop here regularly when I lived closer because it was quiet, organized, and always stocked.
That said, this review is all about the sushi inside the Commissary—and let me just say, it’s hands down the BEST sushi I’ve ever had. I’ve traveled all over the world, including Japan, and this sushi is truly a hidden gem. It’s always fresh, always delicious, and never disappoints.
My go-to is the chicken teriyaki roll, but I also love the shrimp tempura roll. Honestly, I could eat it every single day. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area—definitely give it a try!”
“A treasure. I stopped into Scheele's Market for some snacks on a trip to Georgetown. In my short little visit, it was obvious to me that the owner Daniel is a beloved staple of the community. Really happy to support a place like this! Will definitely be returning!”
“Decent selection of wine and plenty of beer. More a liquor store than a market. But they did have some random items. Pet food. Snacks. Charcoal. Typical corner store. Cashier was nice and helpful.”

“Delicious food and great customer service! The chicken over rice was perfect: spicy without being too hot. We went back the next day for iced lattes which were also very good and made with fresh espresso. The market section is limited but curated and had a thorough selection of grains, spices, etc. The owners are incredibly warm and made us want to return.”
“Best wine selection in Foggy Bottom or beyond, and snacks to go with them. friendly staff. plenty of basics if you need them in a pinch. I expected prices to be higher like other similar bodega-style small grocery stores in other cities, but prices are generally similar to nearby chain grocery stores, no gouging.”
“When I tell you this Market is one of the best I have ever be to in DC is an understatement. They have so many different options from food and drink that's it's a shame other markets don't follow suit!!”
“This my store now they have good sandwiches. I had the chicken salad and turkey sandwiches. Both are good for sure and they will feel you up. Great prices for a heavy sandwich. Good job ??”
