I am always amazed by this place. From the outside it looks like the size of a Walgreens or corner store. Its never crowded like supermarkets and has a pretty big selection for it's size. I went to Frys looking for ground white pepper and ended up going to AJ's, Whole foods and never finding it. I walked into F&E to pick up some organic veggies and checked to see if they had it.. Yup - and it was SO MUCH cheaper than the whole pepper corns I picked up a whole foods.
Everything is fresh and comparable to other supermarkets (for organics) in their pricing. I buy mostly organic so it's nice to have F&E which has the selection I'm looking for. Their breads are fresh and the meats selections are AWESOME. They are a little pricier but for organic meat but I'm willing to pay the extra. Nice atmosphere and very relaxed. The staff are always friendly and very helpful.
Oh and the coupons in paper make a big difference $5 and $10 off $25 or $50.
