Where are good places to eat? Is there a grocery store nearby hotel area? I am so nervous and excited at same time. Any tips and info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Depending on where you’re staying there’s a Whole Foods (two actually) and a Trader Joe’s semi-close to Tysons. Not really within walking distance, though.  

Don't forget Wegmans.

Interesting question.  Google would be an excellent source of information.

And Harris Teeter is in the area, but again not too close to the hotels. Probably the Walmart is the best bet.

Correct ! But using Google would preclude her from posting a threAD..   Also most people are lazy..

Exactly, the ONLY reason for this post is to advertise she's coming to town. She doesn't give a fuck about a grocery store lol

Only thing I can't decide is which is more pathetic.. Her asking the info or the manginas trying to be first in line to help her..  

That’s funny, I think Internet tough guys that post from an anonymous alias from an ALREADY anonymous username who sling barbs at people they don’t know is pretty pathetic.

Tysons is a very big area with more office space than most big cities, and it has three or four different Metro stops (McLean, Tysons, Greensboro, and Spring Hill) depending on how you count. The office parks and hotels spread around pretty widely. If your hotel is near a Metro, you will have lots of options. Unfortunately, Tysons isn't all that walkable. Google Maps is probably you best bet both with grocery stores near your Metro stop and grocery stores near close-by Silver Line metro stops.  

If you think this username is anonymous, you certainly  don't know much about me.. I just moved my reviews to another handle..  I have been around a long, long time son..

Tyson's, if you're interested, is a historic example in how not to do urban/suburban planning.  I'm talking about the immediate area where Routes 7 and 123 intersect.  It was farmland & "too far out" in the 70s.  Then, a developer drew up a master plan to turn it into a major retail and business hub.  Nobody would live there.  You would have to drive from somewhere else.  In NOVA, this would be Reston, Herndon, Vienna, Fairfax, and other more residential areas.  The county board of supervisors strongly objected to the development and kept voting down infrastructure bills that provided roads and other utilities for the massive development.  The developer kept suing Fairfax County asserting that the county was obligated to provide the infrastructure he required.  He kept winning and the county kept voting down legislation.  The result was massive development without supporting infrastructure which led to complete gridlock, among other things.  

No I actually asked because stores are called different things in different states. For example where I am in Chicago we have Jewel but in Massachusetts where I lived it's called Shaws but it owned by the same company. Once when I was in grad school our counselor explained to us to ask questions because she realized that people are coming from different states and things are called different names. She relayed this story of how a girl came to her crying saying she could not find the grocery store . Funny thing she was  
"Googleing ". The counselor asked what she was looking up and realized it was the name of the store  in her city because that is what she knew. It did not exist so she was frustrated. You have to remember some people rarely leave their city let alone state. Hence why I asked. You could already find out I was coming by my ads posted everywhere.

That’s clearly not the point.

Is Wegmans good? Like small town type?

Google does not tell me how big the store is though or what type it is. I am looking for a small town type not a Walmart. I like to eat actual food like organic stuff. Guess I should be more specific in my post.

Wow that is great information! Thank you. I guess I am close to J Gilbert's so I may go there and belly up to the bar for a drink and some dinner.

Last time I checked you were the one who was tripping all over yourself trying to help someone, when all you could have said was go use fuckin' google.  You weren't the first obsequious mangina on the board, and you won't be the last one..  

What a great come back, gramps! Using my obviously ironically chosen user name against me. You must be patting yourself on the back thinking you’re so clever. 👍🏼

Gilbert's has a good menu and I always enjoy my meal when I go there.

The person you are calling Gramps is probably younger than you, unless you are in your 30s..  

🤦‍♂️ My guy…you’re not quite as sharp and witty as you think you are, and you self-own yourself with all your “witty” repartees.  

Looks like you are unraveling and throwing a hissy fit... Keep them coming.  Very entertaining..

Good retort.  

I really didn't realize until now that you were a grocery store  aficionado.. My apologies for coming at you like that..  

In fact, I wasn't even talking to you. I was talking to Client5745. You inserted yourself into the conversation by replying to my post directly..  

My last post on this because this has gotten old.  

You are absolutely 100% right that there isn't any rule on the INTERNET that you can't post on another person's thread.
