Sendik's Food Market

My little neighborhood Sendiks. They aren’t always the most competitive in terms of pricing, but when you factor in the quality of items they’ve got, you can’t get them beat. This location isn’t one of their bigger, fancier ones, but they have pretty much everything I need and are always well stocked. Their veggies are always fresh, and fruits are always juicy. I also love to get their “Sendik’s” brand stuff, including their deli meats and liquor. ***previous review*** This neighborhood Sendik's is truly my neighborhood gem market. I actually prefer my little location over the huge, newer stores that just opened in Brookfield, or Mequon. This is probably the smallest Sendik's around (though I haven't been to all of them), but I love it. It's ALWAYS: clean, friendly, well stocked. Price While the prices are generally a little higher than lower end stores (e.g. Aldi, Cermak), quality is always high (fresh food). If you rotate the sales well, you can always get great deals that way too. Meat & Fish The guys behind the meat and fish counters are very accommodating and will go above and beyond to give you the personalization you need. (If you need something very personalized, give them some time - every once in a while there is a cranky guy who gives you the fish eye for asking a specialized cut.) Deli - Rotisserie Chicken - made with Amish chicken, smaller than the Costco rotisserie, but very well seasoned. These go like hotdogs around dinner time - get there early if you don't want to wait for a new batch! - Friday Fish Fry is actually quite delicious. Cod is 9.99/pound (about 6 pieces), walleye is like, 24.99/pound (about 3 pieces). Walleye dinner is 2 large pieces with sides for $15.99. Personally, I really like the fried chicken at Pick n Save on Silver Spring/Green Bay, but the fish fry is better at Sendiks. Not all friers are made the same! haha All in all, a great grocery in the neighborhood!

Please know that this store does not accept money from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). They have been claiming for years that it's a "technical issue that is being worked on." It is not a technical issue, but rather one of deliberate discrimination. You should also know that Trader Joe's at Bayshore does accept SNAP benefits.

I did a quick run-in for a few items. This is the location on Silver Spring in Whitefish Bay. I absolutely DO NOT recommend this store. It is very small and very cramped with displays everywhere. I accidently bumped someone's cart and apologized but was given the most rude death stare you can imagine. Customers here come across as very entitled and rude. The staff weren't very friendly like they are at other locations. I definitely suggest going to the Franklin or Brookfield locations but stay away from Whitefish Bay.

Small store compared to other locations and seems very cramped. I didn't feel the staff were very friendly compared to other locations. The hot deli looked over picked and very dry from sitting too long. In this location specifically, the customers here come across as VERY entitled and rude. I do not recommend this location at all.
