Washington Street Market - Olympia

Terrible service. Go to Adams Market instead if you can help it.

Good proximity to the busses. Staff are usually cool but sometimes grouchy

Just got off work and wanted a soda and this place wouldn't sell it to me because he thought I was getting it for someone else. I dont even know what he's talking about. It was hot and I wanted a pop and I had to deal with this. Dont go here. Horrible service and people who assume that my mountain dew is part of a conspiracy.

This place is a great place to stop if you are on the run and you are trying to get something fast. The Market was a high end concept grocery store catering specifically to urban customers. It was owned and operated by Virginia Beach, Virginia-based Farm Fresh Food Pharmacy. The Market had three locations, two of which were in Norfolk, Virginia, and the original location in Richmond, Virginia. The first store was an independently owned and operated grocery store which closed due to financial problems. The store 's distributor, SuperValu, required that the store be reopened and handed operations over to FF Acquisitions LLC. The Market was known for each location being named after its neighborhood: Richmond 's The Market at Tobacco Row, Norfolk 's The Market at Ghent, and The Market at Harbour Heights. Each store specialized in something prominent in the neighborhoods that they served, for example The Market at Ghent is located in a neighborhood with a large Jewish population; therefore it contains a large kosher foods section. All of The Market locations contained a premier bakery, deli, seafood shop, butcher, and wine specialist along with gourmet chefs on staff to prepare meals to carry home at the store 's signature Chef 's Corner. The chain 's flagship store at Harbour Heights in downtown Norfolk closed the first half of 2011 after being open for only four years. The original location at Tobacco Row was rebranded as a Farm Fresh Supermarket during the third quarter on 2011 and the Ghent location was rebranded as a Farm Fresh Supermarket in November 2011. Farm Fresh Food and Pharmacy and The Market are wholly owned subsidiaries of Eden Prairie, Minnesota-based SuperValu, Inc.

This restaurant only accepts cash and does not treat the unhoused community well at all. I hope a different business takes its place.
