Foods Of All Nations - Charlottesville

I love Food of All Nation?s delicious, well made sandwiches to order that are made while you wait. They are very reasonably priced and a major lunch-hour weakness of mine. In terms of actually grocery shopping here, the prices are a bit up there, but the offerings are very unique and you won?t be able to find a lot of their international products at any other grocery stores. I hope Food of All Nations is here to stay as a Charlottesville staple.

Foods of All Nations offers a fantastic selection, particularly when it comes to coffee and tea. Whenever I'm in the mood to create something unique, I can always count on finding the necessary ingredients there. On one occasion, while purchasing some bulk tea (the Darjeeling is absolutely delicious), I accidentally spilled a large amount on the floor. We ended up with two full paper bags of bulk tea, and when I explained it to the cashier, she kindly said it was perfectly fine if we didn’t want to buy both bags, which we eventually decided against.

I was patiently waiting as a lovely older woman entered the store in front of me. She was walking slowly and chatting with what I assumed was her caretaker. They paused right in the doorway for her to say something, and the caretaker gently reminded her that there was someone behind them. I chimed in and said, "Oh, take your time, that's perfectly fine with me." Then the caretaker mentioned that this wonderful lady is about to turn 103! I exclaimed, "103! May I..."

I was delighted to discover some of my favorite Swedish items here. It's a fantastic sandwich shop for lunch, and they have a wonderful selection of international foods.

One of my all-time favorite places in Charlottesville! I really enjoy the bakery, deli, and wine selection, but what truly sets this place apart is the exceptional service!
