Lunds & Byerlys

Our go-to last minute store (even above the DT target), the prices are kind of high but we always look for the deals-they have great deals sometimes on the meats, just have to look for them. Produce is $$$ but we only get it if we absolutely need something. Hot bar items are fine, nothing special, average grocery store quality although their fried chicken is always A+! I also love the L&B liquor store nearby, the $10 pick you own 6pack is what we usually get. A great lil grocery store for the city.

Convenient, clean, and close to Loring Park - we can't ask for more. Produce isn't the cheapest, and the bathroom is upstairs in a creepy hallway that you can only access by elevator, but those are my only complaints. I strongly recommend purchasing your cheese and lunch meats from their deli counter - so much tastier than the prepackaged stuff.

Awesome medium sized grocery store with staffed meat counter, cheese counter, and deli. Manager is nice and helpful. Fish are ethically sorced. Staff are polite and have a union. Produce quality is excellent. Lots of lunch snacks, pre-made sushi, salad bar ect if you're grabbing lunch. There's also a caribou to grab a coffee inside and a little tented seating area in the parking lot. Their app is actually pretty good and helpful. They have multiple cashiers and self checkout. And they have an atm. It's almost feels like a coop except the community owned part. Only negatives are that the isles are skinny and hard to navigate more than 1 cart through so maybe come at not peak times if you have a wheel chair or need a cart? And I wish they carried more meat alternatives like Field Roast products. The beyond beef brats has been decimated all summer it seems. Also Field Roast has amazing mini corn dogs I am sorely missing.
