| - Heinen's is great - if you're name is "Money Bags" and you have $200+ to spend on a cart full of groceries. With that said, you'll be getting a very upscale experience with more fresh, luxurious items must-haves than you could ask for. It all depends on what kind of shopper you are or how much money you have to spend.
Me? I'm not ashamed to admit my slight cheapness when it comes to groceries. I can still buy fresh, healthy and local foods for less. You just have to be savvy to find them. Heinen's is an awesome grocery store that I generally can't afford if I'm stocking up the fridge. However, my favorite use for Heinen's is for lunch! Hello, best salad bar ever! Can we be friends? Oh, and please don't get me started on the homemade, hot soups. Some of them are just meals in themselves. Methinks the creamy Tomato Basil Bisque is god sent. *drool*
They also have a bajillion different take-and-heat dishes that are made in house, fresh! It feels like you're eating Grandma's pierogies or Mom's lasagna. It puts a smile on my belly just thinking about it. If you're in the mood for something lighter, they offer wraps and sandwiches to-go as well. Oh, and don't forget the sushi! The perfect lunch option is just waiting for you at Heinen's, calling out your name. Can you hear it?
I must admit that this is the only location that I've ever visited, so my opinion of Heinen's as a whole may be wrong. But, this pariticular one is money for lunch. And hey, it's not too harmful to the wallet if that's all your getting..
Conclusion: Love a luxury, upscale grocery shopping experience? Heinen's is the swanky store you crave. If draining your wallet isn't in the cards, but you'd like a fresh, tasty lunch that's quick? You and Heinen's can still be friends. If I could give 3.5 stars, I would!
