A simple yet important question at the heart of what makes McCaffrey's "McCaffrey's."

WHY?

Why do our buyers scour the region, the nation - even the world - to uncover hidden culinary gems with flavors, textures and aromas that surprise and excite?

WHY

do we turn to local farmers for produce and local ranchers for beef instead of the lowest bidders?

WHY

do our butchers trim every piece of meat by hand so that it cooks lean and succulent?

WHY

do our associates have an unabashed passion for all things food, freely making recommendations that make meals unforgettable?

WHY

do we insist our seafood go from sea to store in less than 36 hours and stock a variety that makes our department feel like a dockside market?

WHY

are our prepared meals, baked goods and catering fare indistinguishable from the best restaurants? Why do we treat food as something to be explored, savored and celebrated - not sold in fluorescent bulb-lit aisles?

WHY?

Because every McCaffrey, from Jim, Sr. to Jim, Jr. to everyone proudly associated with the McCaffrey name never set out to make a supermarket. They set out to make the experience of food an unforgettable part of their customers' lives. And, simply put, neither group would have it any other way.

It's the vision of one family, not the commoditized mandate of a corporation, that makes McCaffrey's Market simply the finest source of food you've ever experienced.
