“I recently visited Swiss Farm with the intention of purchasing a bottle of milk and satisfying a craving for Philly-style pretzels. Unfortunately, my pretzel dreams were dashed as I was informed that they hadn't had pretzels since the store reopened several weeks ago. Disappointed but undeterred, I decided to opt for a frozen Buffalo Chicken Stromboli instead.When I handed $20 to the attendant for the 1/2 gal. of milk and Stromboli, I was surprised to find out that it wasn't enough to cover the cost. Despite this initial hiccup, I have to admit, while it's not Romano's, the Stromboli turned out to be quite tasty after I baked it at home.One of the highlights of Swiss Farm is its sheer convenience, particularly on a rainy day. Being able to simply drive through and grab a bottle of milk is a real time-saver. While my visit had its ups and downs, the Stromboli and the convenience factor left a positive impression.”

“The CO-OP staff is wonderful. They are kind and courteous people that are always ready to help you. The CO-OP has really nice fresh vegetables and fruits that are often organic and local products and a great selection of breads. My favorites are their fresh made sandwiches and soup. Try shopping or having lunch/dinner at the Swarthmore CO-OP. You will love it.”

“I believe it was the owner who made my sandwich. He seem to know everyone coming in for lunch. I moved from out of state and some of the places I have been so far were not as friendly as I am used to. So it was really nice to see he was interested in his customers and friendly. I got a smoked turkey hoagie and it was great, lots of meat and the peppers were great.”

“The best hoagies joint in the area. My husband and I often get hoagies from T&F as it is much closer and their hoagies are very good. But when it comes to quality of meats, Haggerty is the best. I had Hagerty's BLT also and it was great.The owner is a very nice young man and it feels good to patronize a local mom and pop shop”

“This niche, unnoticeable small produce/ co-op or co-op like store offers fresh food. If it can go bad then it might be on discount or even free. Definitely a neighborhood store to help the community with some healthy food options potentially. I stuck out that the employee was wondering what I was doing at this venue until I said TooGoodToGo. I felt like I would've been a nuisance without this unexpected "carte blanche." In my goodies bag, I ended up with two cinnamon? Muffins, 1 or 2 corns, croissants, peach cups, carrots, mushrooms. Almost docked a star but the man was nice enough to take his time to pack me some goodies and then pointed me to the free table of things as well. A man on the side of the street was trying to say hi to me but I thought he was going to ask me for money. So I didn't reply. I knew that I was in a respectable neighborhood (Cobbs Creek) but I also know that I don't live here, I stick out, and it is Philadelphia proper. It felt awkward to look around inside the small store even though there were 10 min left. Everything seemed ready for closing up. I would've gotten there sooner but personal things came up. But I did still make it on time thankfully. I guess you could say, I really get around!”

“Unique goods from Europe (esp. Eastern Europe/Greece/Turkey). Meats, cheeses, breads, lots of shelf items (pickles, sauces) and some pastries. Love the atmosphere (appropriately gruff service). New favorite.”

“If you don't know about the Marcus Hook deli 3 dollar Italian hoagie special you're missing out. Lunch meat is always fresh and lunch meat prices are great. The last time I went in they had a eagles game day special and an eagle special day after a win for lunch meats and cheeses.”

“Prices are good for the most part but at times they can be more pricey than normal. I haven't figured out the algorithm to the price increase because I rarely keep track of dates and times when I visit but I am going to start to so i can avoid the pricey days”

“Best little hole in the wall mom and pop style deli. I’ve had their cheesesteaks, hoagies, and breakfast sandwiches, all fantastic. They also have a few grocery type items if you need something, I haven’t yet but nice to know it’s there just in case. Workers are all very nice and the food is always made to order. So glad this place exists!”

“I came here on a cold rainy day and had the coziest experience. The service was wonderful and they offer complimentary iced barley tea. I ordered the shrimp yakisoba and it was the perfect meal for that weather! I was so hungry I didn’t think to snap photos but maybe next time (because I shall return!).”

“A true foodie or super nuanced vegan can find something here that is not as easy to find at other stores if at all. I would expect only grains and dry things to be unique enough but I found pre-made cashew cream cheese which I thought I might have to go to whole foods or maybe a co-op for, and that is a big maybe. Could've done online or considered making my own but time is of the essence. I didn't want to "substitute" regular cream cheese because it would affect the taste and not be vegan. I am not vegan but a vegan could not even eat something I made with such a "substitution ". The label didn't say cashew milk on it and a store associate over the phone and in-person had to help me. I learned a lot on this day by adventuring randomly on my own food journey, and Martindale's was masterful to help out!”

“Couldn't find half the advertised items & 1 type of item (ex: bread) is in about 2-3 different places. Got a little better. I can find some stuff. Still like the one in Glenolden because it's organized better.”

“Awesome staff always plote and helpful.Generally never too crowded but when lines get to long however they are very good at opening up more registers when they get long.If you use the self checkout lane you can get in and super fast. Just keep a lookout for open stations. If your short it can be hard to see the next open one.This is my go to store.Recommended not going around 430 lots of shoppers”

“Interesting architecture in small, trendy town. Lots of parking. Store has the usual products, but it's not in a strip mall, which makes it quite different. Best time to shop is early on weekdays. Trader Joe's stocks many, many interesting products that are difficult to find elsewhere. Enjoyable shopping experience!”
