Significant Accounting Policies | (1) Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation : The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring deferrals and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of issuance of the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and there were no material subsequent events which require additional disclosure, other than the definitive agreements to purchase the Food Lion Supermarket locations and the Nell’s Family Market location as disclosed in Note (6). For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K . |

Current Relevant Accounting Standards [Abstract] | |
Current Relevant Accounting Standards | (2) Current Relevant Accounting Standards In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. The standard was initially effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. In August 2015, the FASB issued a one-year deferral of the effective date of this new guidance resulting in it now being effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2018. In March, April and May of 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12, respectively, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) which amends the guidance in ASU 2014-09. Early adoption is not permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. The Company expects that the adoption of the ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)(Topic 718): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance related to management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related note disclosures. The new requirements are effective for the annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of the new ASU will not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventor y. ASU 2015-11 amends guidance on the measurement of inventory from lower of cost or market to net realizable value. The amendment applies to all inventory other than those measured by Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) and the Retail Inventory Method (RIM). The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of the new ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. ASU 2015-16 requires that any effect on earnings due to depreciation, amortization or other income effects, due to a change to the provisional amounts be recorded in the current period’s financial statements as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The portion of the amount recorded in the current-period earnings, which would have been recorded in the previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date, must be presented separately on the face of the income statement or disclosed in the notes to the financial statements by line item. The amendment is effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments are to be applied prospectively to any adjustments occurring after the effective date. Adoption of the ASU did not have a current impact on the Company’s 2016 Consolidated Financial Statements. (2) Current Relevant Accounting Standards (continued) In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 generally requires that equity investments (excluding equity method investments) be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 also modifies certain disclosure requirements related to financial assets and liabilities. Under existing GAAP, changes in fair value of available-for-sale equity investments are recorded in other comprehensive income. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will likely have an impact on the net income reported in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income but it is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s comprehensive income or shareholders’ equity. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with the cumulative effect of the adoption made to the balance sheet as of the date of adoption. Adoption will result in a reclassification of the related accumulated unrealized appreciation, net of applicable deferred income taxes, currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings, resulting in no impact on the Company’s shareholders’ equity. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by their leases with lease terms more than 12 months. Current guidance only requires capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. However, the ASU 2016-02 now requires that both capital and operating leases be recognized on the balance sheet. The effect on cash flows will strictly depend on whether the lease is classified as an operating lease or capital lease. The ASU 2016-02 will require disclosures to aid investors and other financial statement users to better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of the cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures are to include qualitative and quantitative information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. This update will have limited impacts on the accounting for leases by lessors. However, new guidance contains targeted improvements to align, where necessary, the lessor’s accounting with the lessee’s accounting standards. ASU 2016-02 will become effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Although the Company has not completed its assessment, the Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04 Liabilities – Extinguishments of Liabilities (Suptopic 405-20) Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products. ASU 2016-04 requires the debtor to derecognize a liability, such as a prepaid stored-value product, if and only if it has been extinguished by paying the creditor in cash, other financial assets, goods or services or if the debtor is relieved of its obligation legally, either judicially or by the creditor. ASU 2016-04 also requires that an entity must disclose the methodology and specific judgements made in applying the breakage recognized. ASU 2016-04 will become effective for the financial statements issued for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. The Company expects that the adoption of the ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Intruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in the current GAAP with requirements to reflect expected credit losses and require consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to form credit loss estimates. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 attempts to reduce diversity in practice in how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This ASU provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. |

Investments [Abstract] | |
Investments | (3) Investments The Company’s marketable securities are all classified as available-for-sale within “Current Assets” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. FASB has established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The Company’s marketable securities valued using Level 1 inputs include highly liquid equity securities, for which quoted market prices are available . The Company’s bond portfolio is valued using Level 2 inputs. The Company’s municipal bonds are valued using a combination of pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions, cash flow models with yield curves and other pricing models utilizing observable inputs, which are considered Level 2 inputs. For Level 2 investment valuation, the Company utilizes standard pricing procedures of its investment brokerage firm(s) which include various third party pricing services. These procedures also require specific price monitoring practices as well as pricing review reports, valuation oversight and pricing challenge procedures to maintain the most accurate representation of investment fair market value. In addition, the Company engages an independent firm to value a sample of the Company’s municipal bond holdings annually in order to validate the investment’s assigned fair value. The Company accrues interest on its municipal bond portfolio throughout the life of each bond held. Dividends from the equity securities are recognized as received. Both interest and dividends are recognized in “Investment income (loss) and interest expense” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. Marketable securities, as of September 24, 2016 and December 26, 2015, consisted of: Gross Gross (dollars in thousands) Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair September 24, 2016 Cost Holding Gains Holding Losses Value Available-for-sale: Level 1 Equity securities $ 1,198 $ 7,967 $ - $ 9,165 Level 2 Municipal bonds 70,656 1,457 (21) 72,092 $ 71,854 $ 9,424 $ (21) $ 81,257 Gross Gross (dollars in thousands) Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Fair December 26, 2015 Cost Holding Gains Holding Losses Value Available-for-sale: Level 1 Equity securities $ 1,198 $ 6,682 $ - $ 7,880 Level 2 Municipal bonds 82,347 1,468 (66) 83,749 $ 83,545 $ 8,150 $ (66) $ 91,629 Maturities of marketable securities classified as available-for-sale at September 24, 2016, were as follows: Amortized Fair (dollars in thousands) Cost Value Available-for-sale: Due within one year $ 4,584 $ 4,634 Due after one year through five years 27,238 27,846 Due after five years through ten years 14,281 15,059 Due after ten years 24,553 24,553 Equity securities 1,198 9,165 $ 71,854 $ 81,257 (3) Investments (continued) The Company also maintains a non-qualified supplemental executive retirement plan and a non-qualified pharmacist deferred compensation plan for certain of its associates which allows them to defer income to future periods. Participants in the plans earn a return on their deferrals based on mutual fund investments. The Company chooses to invest in the underlying mutual fund investments to offset the liability associated with the non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Such investments are reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as “SERP investment,” are classified as trading securities and are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs with gains and losses included in “Investment income (loss) and interest expense” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The changes in the underlying liability to the associates are recorded in “Operating, general and administrative expenses.” |

Acquisitions [Abstract] | |
Acquisitions | (6) Acquisitions On August 1, 2016, the Company purchased five Mars Super Market stores located in Maryland. Weis Markets, Inc. acquired these locations and their operations in an effort to expand its presence in the Baltimore County region. The results of operations of the former Mars Super Market acquisition are included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition. The five former Mars Super Market stores contributed $13.0 million to sales in the third quarter. The cash purchase price paid was $24.3 million for the property, equipment, inventories, prepaid expenses and goodwill related to this purchase. The Company accounted for this transaction as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method. The Company recorded the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired at August 1, 2016. The fair value of intangibles was determined based on the discounted cash flow model and property and equipment were determined based on external appraisals, which will be finalized in the fourth quarter. Weis Markets, Inc. assumed two lease obligations in the acquisition of the former Mars Super Market stores and entered into two new lease agreements. Goodwill of $13.2 million has been recorded, based upon the expected benefits to be derived from new management business strategy and cost synergies. The full $13.2 million is deductible for tax purposes. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the acquired assets as follows: 5 Mars Super Market Stores (dollars in thousands) August 1, 2016 Inventories $ 1,267 Accounts receivable and prepaid expenses 248 Property and equipment 7,110 Goodwill 13,200 Intangibles - favorable leases, net 2,495 Total assets acquired $ 24,320 In July 2016, the Company announced it had reached a definitive agreement with Food Lion, LLC to purchase the assets of 38 Food Lion Supermarket locations operating in the states of Maryland, Virginia and Delaware. The purchase is anticipated to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2016. With this purchase 21 Maryland stores, 13 Virginia stores, and 4 Delaware stores, will be added to the Company’s store count. As of September 24, 2016, the Company began operating ten of the 38 Food Lion, LLC locations in Maryland. The results of operations of the ten former Food Lion, LLC stores are included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of each acquisition ( five stores on September 11, 2016 and five stores on September 18, 2016). The cash purchase price paid to date is $ 23.2 million , including $ 15.1 million of escrowed payments made towards the remaining twenty-eight stores, for the property, equipment, inventories, prepaid expenses and liabilities. Weis Markets, Inc. assumed six lease obligations and ownership of four locations with the first ten locations acquired. The ten acquired Food Lion, LLC locations contributed $2.0 million to sales in the third quarter. Regarding the remainder of the Food Lion, LLC acquisition the Company expects to assume twenty-four additional lease obligations and own four locations. The initial accounting for the business acquisition has not been finalized as the transaction has not fully closed. Twenty-eight additional stores are to be acquired in the fourth quarter and the Company will finalize the purchase price allocation in the fourth quarter upon completion of the transaction and external appraisals of assets acquired.

Long-Term Debt [Abstract] | |
Long-Term Debt | (7) Long-Term Debt On September 1, 2016 the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility with an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $100.0 million. As of September 24, 2016, the Company has drawn upon $40.1 million of the available $100.0 million from the credit facility. The loan will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at the one month LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin rate of 0.65% until its maturity on September 1, 2019 . The loan was used to fund the recent acquisitions and the Company’s working capital requirements. The only financial covenant in the credit facility requires the Company’s minimum EBITDA to be at least $75.0 million. As of September 24, 2016, the Company had a $30 million line of credit with Branch Banking and Trust, of which $14.6 million was committed to outstanding letters of credit. The letters of credit are maintained primarily to support performance, payment, deposit or surety obligations of the Company. The Company does not anticipate drawing on any of them and has committed to not draw any additional amounts from the line of credit. |

Current Relevant Accounting Standards [Abstract] | |
Current Relevant Accounting Standards [Policy Text Block] | In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. The standard was initially effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. In August 2015, the FASB issued a one-year deferral of the effective date of this new guidance resulting in it now being effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2018. In March, April and May of 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12, respectively, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) which amends the guidance in ASU 2014-09. Early adoption is not permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. The Company expects that the adoption of the ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)(Topic 718): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance related to management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related note disclosures. The new requirements are effective for the annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of the new ASU will not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventor y. ASU 2015-11 amends guidance on the measurement of inventory from lower of cost or market to net realizable value. The amendment applies to all inventory other than those measured by Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) and the Retail Inventory Method (RIM). The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of the new ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. ASU 2015-16 requires that any effect on earnings due to depreciation, amortization or other income effects, due to a change to the provisional amounts be recorded in the current period’s financial statements as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The portion of the amount recorded in the current-period earnings, which would have been recorded in the previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date, must be presented separately on the face of the income statement or disclosed in the notes to the financial statements by line item. The amendment is effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments are to be applied prospectively to any adjustments occurring after the effective date. Adoption of the ASU did not have a current impact on the Company’s 2016 Consolidated Financial Statements. (2) Current Relevant Accounting Standards (continued) In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 generally requires that equity investments (excluding equity method investments) be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 also modifies certain disclosure requirements related to financial assets and liabilities. Under existing GAAP, changes in fair value of available-for-sale equity investments are recorded in other comprehensive income. The Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will likely have an impact on the net income reported in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income but it is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s comprehensive income or shareholders’ equity. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with the cumulative effect of the adoption made to the balance sheet as of the date of adoption. Adoption will result in a reclassification of the related accumulated unrealized appreciation, net of applicable deferred income taxes, currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings, resulting in no impact on the Company’s shareholders’ equity. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by their leases with lease terms more than 12 months. Current guidance only requires capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. However, the ASU 2016-02 now requires that both capital and operating leases be recognized on the balance sheet. The effect on cash flows will strictly depend on whether the lease is classified as an operating lease or capital lease. The ASU 2016-02 will require disclosures to aid investors and other financial statement users to better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of the cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures are to include qualitative and quantitative information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. This update will have limited impacts on the accounting for leases by lessors. However, new guidance contains targeted improvements to align, where necessary, the lessor’s accounting with the lessee’s accounting standards. ASU 2016-02 will become effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Although the Company has not completed its assessment, the Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04 Liabilities – Extinguishments of Liabilities (Suptopic 405-20) Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products. ASU 2016-04 requires the debtor to derecognize a liability, such as a prepaid stored-value product, if and only if it has been extinguished by paying the creditor in cash, other financial assets, goods or services or if the debtor is relieved of its obligation legally, either judicially or by the creditor. ASU 2016-04 also requires that an entity must disclose the methodology and specific judgements made in applying the breakage recognized. ASU 2016-04 will become effective for the financial statements issued for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. The Company expects that the adoption of the ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Intruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in the current GAAP with requirements to reflect expected credit losses and require consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to form credit loss estimates. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 attempts to reduce diversity in practice in how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This ASU provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU. |
