Stopped by today to get some ingredients for making dog biscuits that no other stores except River Market carry. While I was there, I bought whole nutmeg to try for some holiday recipes. Enjoyed the variety of soaps scented with essential oils and the lavender-scented lotion that could be sampled. Using so much hand sanitizer due to the pandemic has dried out my hands, and the lotion was just what I needed. It's always a joy to go to River Market and try new products and return for the ones that I can't find anywhere else.

Love this neighborhood market downtown Stillwater. Right amongst all the great shops and restaurants. It's a mainstay, lots of grab and go items, bakery, smaller grocery market, full of organic and fresh salads, sandwiches, soups, etc. Great place to pickup some items before heading down to the river for a picnic. You can also eat on a patio in the back they have tables available. I got the Italian sandwich, it was delicious, fresh Italian meat selection, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, oil and vinegar. Yum! Picked up some chips and a freshly made pumpkin muffin and walked down to the river. At checkout they were rounding up for the local library, which I love, support local!

Nicely run little food co-op in Stillwater by the river. Popular deli for orders made to go around lunch time. A little bit of everything here. Love the 10% off discount last Friday of every month and you don't have to be a member!

There is parking in the back if no space in front. I typically really enjoy a good co-op. I wander in here specifically for the Evan Healy skincare products and they are always out of the ones I want and it makes me wonder why? The prices are way too high for this gal and when it comes to my groceries I'm not exactly a bargin shopper but I do have my limits and sensibilities still. I don't partake of open food areas but notice their hot food bar seems to be quite popular so maybe that's the draw.

I strolled through here on a Saturday evening looking for something warm to accompany me on my walk. It's a pretty small location compared to the other few co-ops in the chain but I liked it. It wasn't busy at all for downtown Stillwater on a weekend. Some items seem a little out of place due to lack of space. The deli is nice and I picked up some vegan squash soup for less than $5. It was hearty with coconut and Indian spices. Sweet and savory. Pleasantly surprised.

When I go to a co-op I assume 2 things: it will be expensive and there will be a wide variety of things that make me happy. The River Market Co-Op in Stillwater definitely meets my assumptions. This has to be my favorite Co-Op in the twin cities area. The selection is much better than many Co-Ops that I have been to, especially their bulk selection. I love being able to get spices, dried beans, teas, and more without having to resort to disposable containers. They allow me to bring my own jars and weigh them at the station. I load up on goodies every week or so!The staff is always super friendly and helpful. They all seem to enjoy working there which bodes well for the establishment's employee treatment. Yes, it is an expensive grocery. That is to be expected when you go to a Co-Op. I for one am willing to pay more to support a business that represents my dietary, moral, and environmental views. I love this Co-Op and I hope it sticks around for a very long time.

I always eat here when I come to Still water: it is what a small co op should be. They have small but tasty selection of cooked foods salad bar soups fruits vegetables you name it again it's a small one but it does the job. It has three tables on the river side if you wanna eat outside and has a weird underground restrooms. Service, location and parking are excellent.

I've been a member since about 1992, back when it cost $10 to join and we earned our membership by spending four hours a month packaging cheese or cleaning floors.I have mixed feelings about River Market in its current form. The store is spacious and well-organized. I'm delighted that it serves as a usable grocery option right in downtown Stillwater and has a wide selection of foods that anyone would eat, not just bags of whole grains that taste like bird seed. That said, it is so pricey that in these lean economic times, I can rarely afford to shop there. And to top it off, last time I was in the manager told me that it now costs $70 to join and they would like me to pony up the difference in membership fees--never mind that they had months of my free labor back in the day.Stillwater is generally a wealthy community, and I think River Market management incorrectly assumes that all their customers are all well-heeled foodies. Sorry guys, I wish you were a little less highbrow.

Have belonged to this market since early 80's and keep loving it! I have grown up along with the market; elder services are so appreciated. The current curb service is fantastic with Barbara and Tina accommodating my every need. Thank you ever so much!
