I'm not sure how many of these high end grocery stores Madison can support, but enter Festival Foods as the latest entry.
In this arena FF does not disappoint. Most impressive was the circular deli counter allowing maximum use of space and what feels like unending selection. We picked up some veggies which we will roast & kabobs from the meat counter. Bakery was also impressive but we're currently "on the wagon" with our healthy eating so we resisted temptation there.
Other notables -- they have dog kennels to park your furry friend while shopping (15 minute max), they sell bus passes & have a community room available although I didn't find any info available on cost, etc.
Staff was attentive but not annoying. Got there when they weren't busy which likely contributes to my positive review. I'm sure we'll be back if our travels take us that way.
