    Mariano's has nothing on Plum Market! Best salad bar and hot foods selection ever. I come here to eat dinner at least a couple times a week and you can eat it there. Also have a wine bar

    Clark/Division Red Line: Grab a pecan sticky bun from the Intelligentsia stand, then beeline to the grocery store’s salad bar for your to-go lunch. You are so good at this multitasking thing. Read more

    Great wine and cheese selection. Their sushi is made by Takashi. Donuts are from Glazed and Infused. They have an intelligensia and a froyo place. You've got to at least see the place.

    Perfect spot for all Michiganders!! Zingermann's breads and baked goods! And the prepared food section is awesome! So much better than Whole Foods..

    Excellent salad bar/hot food selections, particularly Indian cuisine. A little pricy, but convenient & fresh. Also, gluten-free deserts!

    A great alternative to Whole Foods right in our neighborhood! Small, well-proportioned categories, well organized and laid out.

    Upside: Excellent selection of produce, organic foods and botanical cleaning products. Downside: Super pricey & the aisles are too narrow.

    Love the variety and selection at Plum Market. Only downside is that I overspend every, single time.

    I absolutely love Plum. However, I would avoid going on weekends...it's a zoo. You can barely get through the isles.

    $5 cucumbers? Great, but overpriced produce section. You're paying their property taxes with the premium, so know what your are getting into. The meat section makes me giddy.

    Ask nicely and the lovely staff behind the deli counter will heat up your sandwich when it isnt too busy.

    Better than whole foods? Maybe. Price gouging like whole foods? Yes. Amazing hot bar though. Salad bar not so much.

    A taste of home, but still really expensive. The Zingerman's selection is second to none in the city.
