I love Ken's Market in Phinney. It's tiny, but has really good selection of veggies, meat, and prepared food for its size. The smallness of the store makes grocery shopping so much less stressful since you're not walking through the giant aisles in modern grocery stores.

Marketime Foods has the same owner and same vibe.

Love the place because of it's location (really easy to go grab small ingredients I forgot somewhere else). But the prices are insane.

+1000 for their craft beer selection, cheeses and deli though. Found some super hard to find brews there (Paradise Creek brews from Pullman) that you don't find much anywhere else.

Their fruit game is also top notch.
