Eastside Farmers Market - Wicklife Source for Good Stuff

After opening, closing and reopening, Eastside Farmers Market has seemed to find its groove as a good source for fresh produce, baked goods, meats and other foods. The location at 30022 Euclid Avenue, Wicklife, OH 44092, hosted an open air farmers market during the summer and finally they built a building. The current operation is nice and they seem to be trying hard. Although not a big store it is is clean and well stocked. The vegetable and fruit selection is good, probably a little smaller then you will find at some supermarkets, but they seem to concentrate on finding local produce where available and they try to keep the prices down where they can. I have gotten good produce from them and try to stop by when I am in the area. Quite a bit of the store is devoted to the fish, meat, prepared food and deli sections. The meats look good and they have a very nice selection. I have had some of the prepared food and they are pretty good and certainly reasonably priced. One real highlight is the bakery section in the back of the store. The baked goods I have had range from good to very good. I can recommend the pumpkin pie (currently $3) and the donuts. I have also picked up several different breads on special and they are a great value. Once again the prices in this department are quite good and I have gotten some real values here especially the sale items. There is a dairy section and some groceries as well. I will compliment the market on the fact that there are often samples out to try different offerings. The workers in the market are friendly and helpful and the overall feeling is bright. Eastside Farmers Market is not quite in the league of Miles Market (review is here), but they do provide a nice alternative to the supermarket for those who are in the area. Stop by and give them a try or just grab some samples.
