My preferred supermarket! Clean, well-stocked, and well-organized at all times. This place has fantastic leadership. Sushi is one of my favorite foods, as well.

Not the best place for deals on produce but the quality is good. It is Lake Forest after all, so the prices are to be expected for the area. Great to-go options for takeaway meals.

This place is a perfect example of “you get what you pay for”. Actually some stuff isn’t overpriced but it’s all good!

Wanted to share how nice the check out people are at the Lake Forest Fresh Market! Today I went in to get a few groceries, but mainly to get some treats for a gift basket. Grabbed a few items for dinner and completely forgot the main reason I had gone there. In the middle of check out I remember that I needed to get a gift basket with some treats. Told the women I’m so sorry I forgot a bunch of things, she didn’t even seem bothered, ran back to grab 8-10 items and a hanging basket and happily bagged the rest of my items. She Asked me if I would kindly complete the survey at the bottom of receipt and share my experience- done and wanted to also write this review!

I go here primarily for meat. If I am going to put it on the grill, it needs to be worth it. It is here.

Nice grocery store that carries higher end brands, some hard to find items, even some interesting things to try. I havent tried their meat or deli section yet it looks popular. Ive had their pre-prepared salads, and their granola, both good. I stop in at least once a week to pick up something I need that I cant find elsewhere nearby.

This is where I go for good quality steak and sea food . Its a little more expensive but worth it . Fruits, vegetables, deli and the bakery are excellent.

I really, really love this place. Heres a list of my reasons why:1. They play classical music throughout the store2. They have an excellent, curated selection of very high quality (often organic) food, produce and alcohol.3. They always have a little seasonal or holiday theme going4. It smells great when you walk in5. The people that work there are impossibly friendly and great at their jobs6. The carts are the perfect size7. Its easy to get in and out quickly. Easy parking. Helpful staff. Quick checkout.8. Samples when you walk in! Coffee, tea, snacks, apple cider in the winter.9. This is the way things should be!10. And so much more...

Very convenient and nice chill ambiance. Fancy food shop, though priced a bit higher, usually excellent quality groceries. Good quality fish and meats but need more full time staff. (they seem to have spotty coverage... Sometimes no real butchers are there)

This is a beautiful place, it is a small store, with a big variety of organic and fresh products. The interior is amazing it feels so calm and relaxing just to have an amazing experience finding the products that you need. The only bad thing is that they have high prices. I understand this place is located in an expensive town, but the prices are too high.

Great store for specialty items, organic foods, yummy bakery, prepared foods, wonderful meat and seafood areas.... the list goes on. If you are in Lake Forest on the east side of town... take the time to stop in and check it out. One other thing... they have a great staff!!!

I love this place for all the specialty items I can never find at a typical grocery. Between the Lemoncoco drink which is really hard to find, to Pho broth, canned octopus from Spain and excellent tomatoes, I can also get sushi, bakery items and everything else in between. Recently I was making a Spanish dish called Fiduea and they had fish broth from Barcelona. I couldnt believe that I was finding that in the shelf.

They were awesome to let me run in right before closing to grab a Pumpkin pie. I came out of my way just for a pie because I read that it was one of the best. It did live up to its reputation.

Ive worked in Lake Forest for 20 years and the first time I ever went in was this year, the day before Thanksgiving. The produce looked wonderful, the staff was abundant and very friendly and helpful. Good wine/alcohol variety, great produce. Nice neighborhood store.

Fresh Market prepared a last minute crown pork roast for Xmas day dinner. I seasoned it with an apple maple glaze they carried byStonewall Kitchen. Absolutely delicious andthey were gracious about pulling this together last minute. Plus the price was more reasonable that what id been paying for from abutcher Id previously frequented.

We purchased Turbot today and it was spoiled. Opened the package and our kitchen smelled like spoiled fish. We have lived in the area for 40 years and this is the worst fish we have purchased. Also purchased broccoli and it wasnt ripe. Wont be returning.
