Getting close now who to buy food from..

[smjj]

We are going to be buying some of our food for this stay since it will be a large group. I am in charge of selecting the online grocer to buy from for delivery to OKW. I am down to Gardengrocer and WEGOSHOP. Any good or bad stuff you can tell me about them. I know WEGOSHOP is now under new owners and I understand they are doing pretty good. Any info would sure help..smjj

we loved wgoshop, we used them prior to the takeover and afterwards as well. Always good things to say about them in every aspect of their service.

We will be using them again.

We've not used We Go Shop but had great experiences with Garden Grocer. The website is so easy to use and the owner is great. They will even add things not on the website as well as beer/wine. We prepaid and the order was left at Bell Services and waiting when we arrived. I would highly recommend them.

Had a perfect experience with gardengrocer.com in early Feb. Placed my order 3 weeks in advance via the web, and everything was delivered to Bell Services for us (in really snazzy reuseable freezer bags).

Does Bell services keep it refrigerated? We will be staying at OKW and I am not sure when our room will be ready or what room it is for that matter..smjj

Bell Services has a walk in fridge, so they should keep it cold for you (we know this because when we did a trip split between SSR and BCV they kept our stuff in the fridge at Bell Services at BCV until our room was ready).

It is delivered by Garden Grocer in bags that indicate they need to be refrigerated. Bell Services will store it as indicated on the bag. We got in really late and the food was delivered about 4. Everything was cold or frozen as needed.

Hi: We used gardengrocer last month for our large group, and it worked perfectly. Since we had a huge order including liquor, they made arrangements to come directly to our rooms with the goodies. We were then able to divide the order for the 4 different families involved.

We are staying at OKW right now (and loving it!!) .. Marge from WeGoShop delivered our groceries Saturday night, March 11th at 10:30pm..We actually bumped into her in the lobby. I like WeGoShop better than GardenGrocer because it seems easier to get those fresher deli and bakery items.. For example, I really prefer deli cut meats and cheese rather than the packaged ones.. If you give Marge special requests she's very helpful. She also helped me out by explaining that I could set up a "paid out" situation where I authorize OKW to pay her by using my credit card number. It's just one less place I'm giving out my cc info. OKW just charges the grocery bill to my room even when we haven't checked in yet. It was very convenient.

Hope this helps..

Have a great trip. OKW is beautiful and sooooo relaxing.

Another vote for Gardengrocer here. They had a great variety of products and sizes and were very helpful when I needed items not listed....I wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

Another vote for Garden Grocer. Their website for ordering is amazing. Easy. They will also take special orders if not found on their website.

We've used WEGOSHOP last time, and had no problems with them. For our July trip, I plan on using them again.
