Vegetarian and vegan options in a crunchy setting, Ann Arborites love the local sourcing and quaint atmosphere. Coffee is also pretty darn good.

Essentials
This is the best Aldi that I've ever been to. Tons of organic options and always surprise finds. Don't forget a quarter to deposit on the cart, take a shopping bag, and only buy fruit and veggies if you'll eat them within a couple days.

Shopping
Swanky grocer with all the best sourced seafood, meats, breads, and cheeses. The sommelier is on hand to pick out a perfect wine for any budget or meal. There is a salad bar and hot bar similar to Whole Foods but way better. Best buy here is blue cheese crumbles, Michigan craft beers, and Zingerman's bread.
