“This place is the bomb! Perhaps Ann Arbor's best kept secret. It is a small, authentic market. Food is high quality and prices are very reasonable, especially when compared to a Whole Food's or Plumb Market. Their prepared foods are delicious, really delicious, and come in handy for mid-week meals. Shopping here is a treat. It is my new go-to place.”
“This place is a goldmine! I travel for work & swung by here for a couple steaks. The gentleman working had an amazing knowledge of the different cuts of meat; and helped me pick out exactly what I wanted.
It was one of the top best tasting ribeye steaks ive ever had in my life. The price was well worth it.
We also had some fresh stuffed brats. And my god they were amazing! Will absolutely be back next time im in town!”
“A great little store, with an excellent selection of halal meats, at good prices. Be careful with some of the produce though; I've bought some before that turned out to have mostly gone off.”
“This place has a lot going for it. While the beef offerings weren’t wide ranging, they at least know how to cut a ribeye to proper thickness, which is more than I can say for the big box stores in the area. They also offer an above average amount of specialty, home-made products, including a few sausages, chorizo, marinated chicken, stuffed pork chops, etc. Complimented with the small amount of produce and dry goods, it’s a decent place to stop in and pick up a meal for the evening.
When we visited, the staff at the time could not tell me the farm their beef is sourced from. I’m familiar with answers such as Creekstone Farms, Snake River….Eventually, I was told it is ‘from Washington - the same place Gordon Ramsay gets his beef’ - which seemed more like a talking point; not sure how true that is.
We also picked up one link each of some of their sausage, only to have it weighed and packed in one container (fine) - with the price of the more expensive variety (less than ideal).
It’s worth a visit, but as a butcher shop, I expect the staff behind the counter to be excited and knowledgeable about the product they are selling. Good energy overall.”
“Great, and I mean GREAT, fish and butcher counters. And the product mix is amazingly deep for neighborhood market. Lingonberries? Got 'em. Enchilada sauce? Yep. And the owner, couldn't be a nicer guy. I love supporting this market as they support the neighborhood.....and are right next to the Farmer's Market. Love Sparrow Market!”
“It's a very good plaza and you know it's not the greatest location but it's a great plaza for the location it's in and I really like it and I highly recommended to people to go to for sure.”
