Grocery shopping can be a serious hassle, and with the long lines and convenience of grocery delivery these days, many people would rather place an order online than head to their local supermarket. In-store samples and funny store signs can help to make the experience more enjoyable, but a pleasant atmosphere and beautiful setting is much more likely to lure us to the aisles, and certain grocery store locations across the country really have that figured out. Whether they’re situated in historic buildings or carefully designed with customer experience in mind, these 10 supermarkets are totally worth the trip. Heck, we’d visit even without a grocery list in hand!
Bi-Rite Market in San Francisco, CA
Locals have flocked to this grocery store in the Mission District since it first opened in the 40s, and with such an Instagram-worthy facade, they’re not slowing down anytime soon. Shoppers can browse the impressive selection of local produce and admire the old-school, art deco feel of the place. The original neon sign still lights up outside, and the understated cool style makes its way inside to the deli and cheese counter, as well as the uber-popular ice cream counter, serving small-batch scoops of the store’s original flavors.
Analysis
When you think of supermarkets, you don’t typically think of the word beautiful to describe them, however these unique shops deserve the right to have this description. It’s a unique way of enticing people to come and shop, specially if the product they sell is unique and is not typically found anywhere else. I think this is why people are pushing the traditional supermarket expererience away because it’s not always the most aesthetically pleasing for people.
