On the Vine Marketplace (Exeter, New Hampshire) – Food Shop Review

On the Vine Marketplace in Exeter, New Hampshire is your one stop shopping place for high end and hard to find food items. This is the type of gourmet grocer that you can find in many large cities but is not so common in Northern New England. If you are looking for bargains this is not the place but for quality items it cannot be beat.

The meat, fish and produce are all of exceptional quality. I have never been disappointed with the freshness of the fish, the meat selections are high end and the produce is vibrant. I used to stop here frequently just to pick up raspberries or strawberries for my ride home. You will never find white unripe strawberries in the bottom of your package.

There are a few seats after the checkout lanes if you want to take a bite of your sandwich or pastry.

You will be able to find better cheese in a cheese shop, a bigger selection of wine in a wine store and items at a much lower price if you are able to locate them in a supermarket but for a one stop option this is it.
