LOVE this place. I echo the sentiments of other reviewers that the staff are super kind and welcoming and the selection of organic produce and local foods are OFF-THE-CHAIN when compared to most stores. I'm a Co-Op gal who usually does Central Co-Op but when I can't get there, I pop in here and get juices and wine and great foods.You guys got me hooked on Sweet Lo's ice cream. The cheese and meat selections are great as is their fresh bread and pastry area. Pre-made or frozen meals are also really stupendous with their selection.I'm used to paying co-op prices so Stockbox seems pretty fairly priced. I'm a farm girl so I know what fair prices are to keep farmer's in biz and I applaud Stockbox for stocking so much local and organic fresh and frozen foods.Fucking brilliant, lads!

Stockbox has the best selection of all the little markets around me in First Hill since I don't live walking distance from a full blown grocery store, but it's not without the extra cost! I felt overall there was a pretty good selection here and I really loved all the local food companies sold, but some things were basically a 30-40% markup over the average grocery store price at say QFC. The cashier was really friendly and they also have a points program, however being so expensive, I'll do better at planning ahead for my groceries and save coming here for emergencies.

I know quite a few people love this grocery store, but I just can't get on this train. First off, the prices are NOT cheap but not astronomically high either. It's on par with paying for basic essentials at the airport. The shop does have a fair amount of selection for drinks and some snacks. The produce is subpar, I've found most veggies and fruits to be wilted. It's not going to replace my Whole Foods but its the best option in the area without having to hike into Capitol Hill.

I know most of you hate when people do this, but Stockbox First Hill gets an extra star from me simply because of it's proximity. Unless I need cat food I really have no ~need~ to walk a mile to the nearest grocery store.Stockbox. Not quite a full grocery store, not quite a bodega. But super super convenient. First Hill hasn't had anything CLOSE to this for years, so I am so excited to have this place literally around the corner.First things first -- this isn't huge. This place stocks the basics with a little extra something on top. So come here for milk, eggs, bread but also Stumptown Coffee, Macrina bakery goodies, greek yogurt, Annie's dressing, local dried fruits, etc. And OMG. Fresh produce!!!! That isn't just apples and bananas. No more sad salads, no more realizing I am out of garlic. I have fresh goodies at my disposal. Am I missing weird things like turnips and kumquats? Yes, but how often would I be buying those ANYWAY? They even have ready made meals (wraps, sandwiches, fruit and yogurt cups, burritos) for the working hospital crowd. Way to go guys.Biggest downside -- the price. Convenient equals expensive in this scenario it seems, where a jar of Prego runs $4 and a box of basic popsicles nearly $6. Produce is cheaper, but still on the high end of things. Think Whole Foods prices, at like a 16th of the size.So a solid 3 stars, up to 4 since I have somewhere I can run to for veg and last minute sundries as needed without the hassle I experienced before.

Wow, I was really impressed with this little corner grocery store! I was in the area and needed seaweed...and they had it ;) They had a bunch of pretty produce (it seems they have a produce happy hour...everyday?), great selection of beverages, a little of this and a little of that. And MACRINA goodies, uh what?! Sure, some things are a little pricey, but most prices seem standard. You can get a healthy meal for lunch if you need to or pick up some grocery items on your way home. They have a lot of quality products here, again I'm impressed. I don't live in the area and work down the hill, so I'd only really ever stop by if I have to stop in at HMC. But, great little gem!

Easy and convenient to grab a snack or food. Pretty nice selection of grab and go lunch items like sandwiches and sushi poke bowls. There's also 3 tables or so to sit and eat your food there, if you choose to do so. Handful of special items like chocolates, yogurt, bread, and fresh produce. Will always come here rather than a gas station when in the area.

Thank you so much for amazing selection! Especially with fresh fruits & veggies. Would love if the "bulk options" would have some more healthy variety options... Beans... Nuts... Grains. But, overall, love your store! It's so essential in the area. Thank you.

While I imagine this Market is popular due to its location the prices leave something to be desired.On top of that, the coffee creamer I bought from the refrigerated section to take to my mother at the Harborview ICU so she could have half a decent cup of coffee while recovering from surgery was curdled and spoiled.So, good times I guess?

Good selection, friendly service. Prices are high; but for good products, including organic produce.Most of their businesses probably comes from Harborview Hospital staff who don't have much time. Imagine Whole Foods setting up a shop the size of a 7-Eleven. Btw, if you're up for splurging both calorie & cost-wise, check out the Acme Valley ice cream; it's like triple concentrated. Sooo yummy! But a rare treat if you care about your waistline.
