Surprised their rating isn't higher. Its obviously not going to be as cheap as Walmart or Hannaford, but they offer an amazing selection in a clean, safe, moderately sized store. Employees were super nice. They even sell alcohol!

I'm a local and this place is an amazing gift! It's a modern day general store with polite and friendly staff. Not a huge selection of things but surprising finds. Veggies, fruits, meats, canned/boxed, etc. Great location and reasonable hours.

I would just like to take the time to specifically commend the young guys behind the deli meat/sandwich counter for their friendliness and professionalism -- especially as a newcomer to the Burlington area. I was looking for some mortadella -- which, believe it or not, I'm having an extremely difficult time finding in the area -- and these guys were happy to make suggestions and provide alternatives. One of them hopped on the slicer and cut me some fresh capocollo instead. Don't be perturbed by the fact that their meat display case appears empty, as they keep everything in the walk-in fridge. Generally, this is a very friendly place with excellent customer service, and a strong sense of wanted to provide for their local community. There's some variety and selection -- not very much, but hey it's not a supermarket after all. I do wish that their fresh meat section was a bit more thoroughly stocked, in terms of abundance and variety, but I'm admittedly only just getting to know the place. I did find it a little bit pricey as other reviewers have pointed out, but that is the price of convenience rather than having to go long distances to big box stores.

Great little local market. I often shop there for items to finish off a meal I'm making that evening. They have an impressive selection for such a small space and I really appreciate the commitment to having both higher end products as well as more affordable options. As a final note the staff is always friendly and helpful exactly what you want in neighborhood market

The quality of the produce is outstanding. The prices are competitive with city market. Although smaller in size, the variety of products is very good. Mostly, I want to complement the level of service. This market is in my neighborhood and I have always been extremely impressed with the staff. Keep up the good work! Tammie

Clean store, good offerings for being a relatively small space. The cashiers are *almost* always friendly, just a couple could use some customer service training. Definitely a place I stop at several times a week!

This is such a valuable market to have in the ONE. I am impressed with the variety of quality products they offer in a small, clean, and welcoming space. I buy most of my groceries there and only occasionally supplement from other stores. I am so grateful that they've been here over the last year and I know a lot of folks in the ONE appreciate them. Even if some items are priced higher than you can find elsewhere, I like supporting my neighbor and paying a bit extra to ensure they are successful and stay in the neighborhood. Smaller stores like this have higher expenses than larger stores so it makes sense. Jake's is right-sized for this neighborhood. It all ends up balancing out in the end since I'd have spent money on gas or lost time to bike to a store further away. Bonus is that I don't have to deal with traffic or larger crowds. Shopping at Jake's is pleasurable, not stressful. Staff are friendly and helpful. They take the time to connect with each customer. I'd give 10 stars if I could.

5 stars for way better grab and go sandwiches than the competitor, and, way more friendly staff. Switched from the aforementioned 100%.

Impressive variety of foods from the basics to more niche health-minded foods like vegan meat substitutes, beverages, ice cream, snacks. It has everything a grocery store would have and the prices were fair. This Old North End market is more than what you would expect from a small local market - I grew up in New England and you see these sorts of markets all around but this shop had something different about it and I appreciated walking down each isle and browsing the selection. If you need a snack or a few groceries and are nearby it's definitely worth checking out.

It should be an A-, about a 4.6. I hit this little store a lot. Strangely, it is more convenient to get to when traffic is bad the the larger, closer grocery chain store. They pack a lot in this little store and what they have is good quality. Parking can be rough. It's great that it is in the food desert of the ONE. I think it is about the only place around
