The verdict

I've wanted a proper LEGO City supermarket for years, and the moment I saw that two-tone green facade with the giant brick-built carrot out front, I knew LEGO had actually listened.

The exterior is genuinely charming, the loading bay and forklift give it real play value, and the little produce stand out front sold me before I'd even opened the box. My honest caveat is the interior, which just doesn't use the footprint as well as the outside promises, so don't expect a sprawling supermarket floor plan once you flip it around. This is a set for City builders who want a believable town center piece and don't mind a shop that's a bit more facade than floor space.

Best for: City collectors building out a town center who want a believable small business, not a sprawling supermarket

The full review

What it is

I've wanted a proper LEGO City supermarket for years, and the moment I saw that two-tone green storefront with the giant brick-built carrot and the fresh produce buckets out front, I knew LEGO had finally nailed the vibe. It reads exactly like the corner grocery store you'd walk past on a Saturday morning. The forklift working the loading bay in back and the returning shopping trolley give it real function, not just a pretty face, and the cast of five minifigures brings it to life, from Mr. Produce to the kid in the pea costume mascot outfit.

The catch

I'll be straight with you about the interior, though. The outside promises more than the inside delivers. Once you flip the building around, the shop floor feels tight and a little underbuilt next to how much personality the facade has, which is the most common complaint I saw echoed by other reviewers too. At 404 pieces for roughly seventy dollars, the price per piece runs on the higher side for City, and LEGO pulled it from shelves quickly, so if you want one you may already be paying a secondhand premium.

Who it's for

If you're building out a City town center and want a shop with real character on the outside and a fun minifig lineup, this earns its spot without much hesitation. If you're hoping for a sprawling, fully stocked supermarket interior with aisles of tiny food, you'll want to temper expectations or look at aftermarket interior designs to bulk it out.

The parts story

What the build is actually like, and the pieces worth knowing about.

Building this one is a quick, satisfying afternoon project rather than a weekend commitment. You start with the loading bay and forklift, move into the two-tone green facade, and finish by dressing the front with produce crates and flower buckets, so there's a nice rhythm of structure then decoration throughout.

The standout piece for me is the new corn element, a first for LEGO, with a molded husk and kernels and a handle so a minifigure can actually carry it. The returning shopping trolley is a treat too, since it hadn't shown up in a while. But the real headline is the minifigure with the modern prosthetic leg, LEGO's first left-leg prosthetic after years of only building right-leg versions, a small but meaningful step for representation in the City lineup. Add in uncommon torso and jacket prints on the customer figures and this cast punches well above its part count.

Trivia: this was LEGO City's first-ever dedicated grocery store set, released in 2022. It introduced the first LEGO minifigure with a modern left-leg prosthetic. The set retired after roughly seven months on shelves. And the new corn mold debuted here before showing up in later sets.
