Independently owned, local grocery store offering a limited amount of food items for the quick in and out needs. Store has an older feel and smell, but clean and organized. Fresh cuts from the meat department and a nice selection of deli meats and salads. Basic selection of produce and some local bakery items. Small beauty and health aisle. Shop the sales as items tend to be higher than other neighborhood grocery stores. Staff were friendly and checkout a breeze.
I just cant imagine a local grocery store providing a better range of products service and pricing than I generally at Silver Lake Foods. Do they have it all? Nope. Are there prices the very best across the board, probably not, but Ill never know. I know one thing, they have the best value on the meats and produce that I commonly look for. Oh, and Im very happy with the attached Silver Lake Liquor store. Go there. By the Liberty School Cabernet Sauvignon. For 14 bucks, its the best wine I can find.
BY FAR the best grocery store in Rochester. The best meat. The best produce. BY FAR the best service! AND...you can get them to do the shopping for you AND get it delivered for a measly $10!!! I AM NOT KIDDING!!! $10!!! PLUS.....you are keeping your money local instead of shipping it to Iowa (HyVee) or Arkansas(Muslimart). You will pay a little more for some common items but, at least the money stays here.... SHOP AT LOCALLY OWNED BUSINESSES FIRST!!!
Its 2 blocks from a apt. The employees are, super nice, and helpful. Its the, cleanest grocery Ive, ever been in. Only thing I xan say, and I know its unavoidable, the prices are, high.
Of course they are always very helpful and if you even look like your confused and cant find what your looking for, Gilbert will pick up on it before you have to ask, its like a small town grocery store feel yet being able to meet all your needs as big town shopping center.
Was very good,nice people working there and I get what I was looking for recomient this store to everyone
Silver Lake Foods is an awesome little local gem. From good discounts, great products as someone who likes baking from scratch it has every little thing I need. The meat department is amazing theres always a new selection of cuts or specials and they sliced a packaged ham for me(which is a great cost cutter if youve seen the disparity in price between prepared meet and bulk meat) I even found a good shoe polish and waterproofer for my boots, that i hadnt been able to find at a big box store.Great, local, fresh and affordable.
Good sale on beef today and some other items. Everything was well stocked. Parking is close and easy.
Nice little supermaket with a lot of choice but a bit pricey compared to others...
Great butcher!! For a small neighborhood grocery store they have a nice selection of organic and healthy selection!
Great management, always there to help, new appliances, carpeting..Great location and reasonable rent..I enjoy my apt very much
Great meat department
Little more expensive on a few things theyre always very friendly and its convenient for me and the elderly
Love this local big/small grocery. Rare if they dont have what I need.
Everyone help you when you need help and theyre very polite and go out of their way to make things right
I like the convenience of this store instead of those big supermarkets.
Clean store..great products..friendly staff
Nice store, good stuff, but some of the help needs to brush up on its people skills.
Meat counter is amazing. Very clean store. Service is great.
Very well designed. Clean and items are easily accessible.
Excellent hometown grocery store! Great deli! Great meats and great produce. Plus a liquor store attached!
Great meat deals. Helpful staff and store is clean.
Shop local. Great grocery store.
Liquor store has everything. Store is smaller than most, but has everything you need. Staff is very helpful.
All the other stores were jam packed. I was able to locate all items I needed and had quick check out.
I like your grocery store because its not so big like Walmart and Target. I am 58 years old, and its so far to get an item and another item at these big box stores.
We support our local businesses whenever were able; a good clean friendly place to shop!
I like to buy Hi Chew candy here. And the staff is nice.
Great little local supermarket. Small, so the selections are a little limited. But it makes it easy to get in and out, and when Ive price checked them against the big stores, theyre surprisingly cheaper, at least for staple items . They have baked goods from the local bakery down the street, and their deli and meat counters are fantastic. The attached liquor store has great deals on wine, too.
Live 3 blocks away very convenient
Very good meat counter
15 minutes and I got my entire Thanksgiving dinner! Our favorite grocery store in town!
Very nice store. The only thing missing seems to me is more friendliness by store staff and especially the cashiers.
Friendly staff, treat us like family. Best meat in town, delicious deli selections and always fresh produce. Theresa is absolutely the best!.
Had to redact my previous positive review. Between them not accepting my credit card (which is current and in good standing) or my debit card (they claimed it was declined, I checked my balance immediately upon exiting the store and it was far more than adequate to cover the small purchase. On top of this, the staff were incredibly rude during checkout, there were a large number of molding or otherwise spoiled/expired foods on display, and the results from getting meat here have been sub-par. I wont be coming back again and I recommend you dont either.
Small enough that you can find things but with a good selection. The meat is great and the personnel make you feel like family. Very clean
Love this place! I used to go there in the 60s with my Mom when I was a whipper snapper, brings back great memories. Love the meats, especially the pork cuts. Rob the friendly butcher will cut whatever you want...I have him cut me 1 thick pork steaks for smoking. Good deals on meat. Neat, clean, friendly folk. Harkens you back to a better time. Still my favorite small grocer after 45 years.Mark Hrubetz
Love thse little red dairy cheese curds they have in the far end of the cooler on the south wall!!! They are AMAZING!!!
Grateful store caters to the elderly is small and easy to get around. Great meat and meat prices pork sausage made there so good little grade. Very lean. Love it. Homey store
Great smaller store with everything you need! Staff seems genuinely happy to help! I love this place for smaller shopping trips in Rochester.
I was surprised at how clean the parking lot was
Its my neighborhood grocery store and its easy for me to pick up a few items on the fly. The staff are friendly and helpful. Love that its only 3 blocks away from my home
Great food n Great customer service great place honest employee always smiling and there to help with your needs or questions
I used to work here. My first job. The employees are very welcoming and helpful.
Silverlake foods is a very well presented grocery store with great customer service in which the business continues to advance in remodel and quality assurance. Thumbs up all around. The competitive delivery prices and warming friendship keeps me coming back, 5 stars!!
This is my hometown neighborhood grocer. Best in town, greatest veggies and butcher with shocking low prices that beat big box every day. Easy in and easy out, love my Silverlake foods since we moved here in 63.
Clean friendly environment. Staff very helpful and they know there customers.
Nice little corner groceries store
Its a little small and expensive compared to other grocery stores but they are always friendly and their meat counter is awesome! I usually come for the deals they have!
Nice convenient support the small business store. Good selection, nice meat counter, especially when chicken is on sale. Liquor store is attached for your convenience. =)
Great meat dept
Best meat counter in town 🐂🐃🐔🐓🐤🐣🦈🐬🐋🐟🦀🦞🦐🦂🕷️
Good selections in every department. Prices are competitive everyday. Some items are priced below the competition. Nicely renovated.
Great deli and customer service.
The best place to buy meat. Its the most fresh and reasonably priced in the whole town. I liked the place and people over there are very nice and helping.
Great place to get lots of food.
Great Prices! Great Delicatessen! GREAT PLACE!
Small town feel. Polite staff and cleaner then most grocery stores. No dust on the shelves.
This place has gone through several owners and changed in its over 30 year life span from when it started as PJs.Its now very clean and well run. Nice staff. And works to have fresh high quality products.
Nice place. Easier shopping than the super stores.
I only got meat here, but I was pretty impressed. It was my first time, but Ill go back.
Before moving into the neighborhood, I had just driven by wondering how an old grocery store was still in business. When I walked in for the first time, I found out why. Great service, selection, butcher counter, and more. Gives Rochester its small-town charm!
Great meat selection. Fast, friendly service. Good place to stop for something quick because its not a huge mega store, but they still have what you need.
Good place to go for your grocery shopping needs they are very friendly and keep their store very well-kept
Wonderful place to shop i go there often b sure to check the meat specials
I like it great store
Nice place
I end up going here pretty much daily while Im on my lunch brake. Its super convenient and Ive never had a problem!
Wonderful store
Almost all the produce they sell is moldy. I live very close to this grocery store & wish I didn’t have to drive to Hyvee every time I needed a bag of carrots. I’ve checked back multiple times & mentioned it to some of the staff but it seems the problem will never be fixed. If you’re looking for produce definitely don’t go here.
Great prices great service
Small but keeps the neighborhood feel rather the supermarket anonymity.
Getting a new entryway today. Great staff. Friendly baggers. Fresh produce. Dont have to walk a mile for groceries.
Smaller place good meat counter. Nice people
I love Silver Lake Foods! Good staff and store is nice.I love their meat and seafood!
Nice clean Place friendly people well stocked.
Affordable and awesome service
Great deals and great staff!
The lady at the customer service desk on june 18th at 8 am was so rude and disrespectful. That i dont even know how she got a job there. Thry are losing a loyal customer just because of her
I love this place. Small and friendly!
All that you need to find in a store.And I love that I can find mexican ingredients to the hispanic food.
Give us good service
I love this store in general. The meat department was a little slow in the packaging area today.
Use to shop there when I lived over there
Smells a little funky as you walk in, but is a nice clean place to shop. I always shot here over walmart and their choices of deli meats are always great options. Some of their delas are nice and they even have an organic healthy food section in the back with some interesting potions that even Hy-Vee doesnt have. I love to explore some of their special deals that can beatout walmart in value.
Great people. Great meat department always a great deal and fresh and taste
Its improved,but has a bad smell...
Personally, I miss the old dirty rundown Silver Lake and Im not sure of these new gentrified fancy renovations. They do have a lot of things I cant find elsewhere though.
Nice inner city fully stocked grocery store. About 5-10% more expensive than going to the edge of town for Hy-Vee or cub.
Meat dept is amazing. You can get great deals & quality there.
So impressed at how cute the inside is!! Nice employees also
Good groceries
All the friendly of a local grocery store! New renovations make now easier to enter.
Every thing I need weekly without walking miles to find it. And next to Cost Cutters. You are welcome for the plug.
They are very clean and helpful
Prices have risen so much I will only buy sale items. Too bad I like this store
Good food handicap accessible.
Great service and prices.
