I don't know why we decided to patronize them since the reason they closed all the NC locations was to break the employee's union and many lost their pensions that they were so close to getting. Oh, well, crazy us! The store is typical Kroger all the way. We actually came here for one of their types of toilet tissue specifically that we found at one of their knock off stores that they have in the Midwest called Ruler Foods by Kroger. They're no frills like Aldi where merchandise is just left in their shipping boxes and placed on shelves. It's stuff that either the label has been updated (as we found to be the case with the ones at this Kroger in Rocky Mount) or maybe overstock items. Anyway, we stocked up on the TP that's better than what we'd been getting at Aldi. We did get a number of other items and grumbled all the way thru the place about how the shoppers and employees in NC got cheated by the company in one way or another. Beware people of VA, you may be next on the chopping block!

I have mixed feelings about this Starbucks. When I arrived for the first time, the place was clean…read moreand very well organized. They had all the tumblers and mugs neatly placed on the display shelves and stands. I was very impressed with the large size of the store and variety of the nice looking and comfortable furniture. As a Reserve Status Starbucks member, today was Triple Star Day, so I went to their counter and ordered an Iced Caffè Mocha Grande and paid with my app's Starbucks account to be able to get the Triple Stars for every dollar spent. Then I sat down at one of the comfortable seats, and enjoyed drinking my coffee while I studied the New Reward Program from Starbucks explained in their app. As I did so, I discovered a Reserve Status exclusive drink: The Ube Tiramisu. So I went and ordered one to celebrate becoming a Reserve Status member. The barista wasn't aware of this so inputed some of the ingredients in the register but some details of the ingredients of the recipe were missing. To top it off, he charged me 200 Rewards Stars to pay for it without me asking him to use Stars to pay for it, thus not allowing me to take advantage of my Triple Star Day offer. When I discovered this in the receipt, I went back and asked him to return my 200 Stars and charge the dollar amount of my drink from my account. He said it was not a problem and did it. I trusted he had done it and sat down to drink my coffee. After I finished drinking it, in no time at all, I noticed my glass was filled with ice up to the top, thus it had had very little coffee. I went up and brought it to the attention of the store manager and showed him my glass, and he insisted that was how it was done. I got upset at his insistence when you could clearly see the glass full of ice that left very little room for the coffee. So I left and when I got home and reviewed my account, noticed that the barista hadn't given me back the 200 Stars, that he had taken away, even though he had charged me for the coffee. I immediately called Starbucks' Headquarters Customer Service, and told their knowledgeable and hospitable customer service representative my story and he apologized for this store doing this to me and made it right. For this reason I am giving this store 3 Stars, when it should have been less, but I do so with a buyer beware, and am not sure I will return there again.

The Roanoke Co+op is Southwest Virginia's largest food co-op. And this year they are celebrating…read moretheir 50th year anniversary. Since 1975 they have been serving the Roanoke Valley community. Located in Center In The Square, in the heart of Downtown Roanoke, it's a Market featuring natural grocery staples and organic-focused produce, along with prepared foods and grab-and-go options. It also accepts SNAP/EBT for its prepared foods. Besides this Roanoke Downtown location, it has another much larger community-owned grocery store in Grandin Village. This co-op has over 6,200 owners. They welcome everyone in the community as well as visiting tourists to shop there. And if you wish you too can become an owner by filling out an application and by making a one-time purchase of 8 ownership shares at $200 or paying for your shares one at a time in 8 installments of $25 each within an 8 year period. Owners receive benefits such as Owner Rewards, Patronage Rebates, Vote in their annual Board of Directors elections, eligibility to run for an open seat on the Board of Directors, and an invitation to the Annual Co-op Meeting. Today, I visited their Downtown Roanoke location. The employee on duty allowed me to explore the grocery store and take photographs to accompany my review. The store was very clean and organized, and although it was a bit late, early in the morning its suppliers bring in fresh merchandise, and make sure to fill up all its shelves spaces. In the past, I had purchased many items from this store. In the Summer, I would sometimes get a grab-and-go salad and either go sit at one of the tables that they put out in the Center In The Square or to the ones in the Market Building, and eat it with the salad dressing that it includes inside. Their hot Soup of the day is also very tasty and popular, and I've enjoyed a bowl many times. A while ago they experimented by selling Roanoke t-shirts and due to popular demand they now carry a nice variety of them for both locals and tourists who like taking one home with them as a souvenirof the Star City of Roanoke. I invite you to view my photographs accompanying this review to get a better sense of the place and the quality merchandise they sell here. I definitely highly recommend this grocery store to all who want to eat healthy and support locally sourced products.

The Roanoke Co+Op is a health and natural foods store in the city of Roanoke, Virginia. It was near…read moremy Airbnb and decided to look for lunch and dinner options on a brisk Thursday evening. My time here at the Roanoke Co+Op was brief, as I spent about 1/2 hour or so looking around and purchased a couple of snack items. The store is one of the largest health and natural food resources in southwest Virginia. It reminds me of my own local natural health food stores in Honolulu but not Whole Foods. It's a quintessential supermarket store that houses a lot of natural food resources that you typically won't find in your larger local grocery stores. They're typically a place where health is impactful and natural foods are the way to build your own lifestyle here in Southwest Virginia. The store itself is not that large but they have a lot of great items to choose from. During the time I was here around 3pm, it wasn't terribly crowded so it was nice to be looking around and seeing what Roanoke Co+Op has to offer. I ended up grabbing healthy snacks and paid cash for them. Healthy chips and healthy drinks other than commercial soda drinks are helpful when you want to maintain weight while maximizing your food options here and supporting local businesses. It was a cozy experience though. The staff here is friendly and knowledgeable about a lot of things, specifically how to live a balanced healthy life. We all sure could be more concerned and cognizant about what we eat and how food affects our bodies. Natural foods help bridge that gap with that and the Roanoke Co+Op helps and reminds us of all the natural healthy foods we can incorporate into our diets on a daily lives. It's always nice to find good sources here or wherever your travels takes you. I'm glad my travels took me here and helped me with my snacks and dinner options on a balmy Thursday in March 2026. I enjoyed my time here at the Roanoke Co+Op and hopefully you will too on your next trip here to shop at the Roanoke Co+Op. The overall experience here at the Roanoke Co+Op natural foods store was very good and pleasant. It gave me a chance to wind down during my travels and help myself with meal planning during my stay in Roanoke, even if it's for a night. There was not much of an air conditioning system that kept me and others cool and comfortable. I enjoyed looking at all the different products on the shelves and price compared a lot of things while I was roaming through the aisles that Thursday March afternoon. The prices can be a little more than average, which is typical of natural wellness stores versus the chain supermarkets. You come here because you want to be here and are focused and laser driven on a healthy purposeful life. That is what gets me going every single day I live. The prices doesn't mean much if you don't have health. The store itself is very organized and definitely is amazing. It has everyday items for anyone and everyone who needs healthy food and snacks while having other non edible items for active lifestyles. Regardless of how your lifestyle looks like, the Roanoke Co+Op has what you are looking for. I could have purchased more stuff here but I couldn't use everything during my stay in Roanoke and had to pack it in my luggage, Which was already packed to the max. Even then, my experience here at the Co+Op was very good and happy that I was here. Recommended if you're in the Roanoke area and want to be on top of your health and lifestyle. The Roanoke Co+Op health and natural wellness store is located in Roanoke, Virginia in the Grandin neighborhood. It's physically situated at 1319 Grandin Road SW. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. As far as parking goes, they have a small but limited parking spaces for yall who drive. For myself who take public transportation as much as I do, bus routes 65 and 71 passes the Grandin neighborhood and stops nearby. So you can walk from there and to the Co+Op, which isn't far from the bus stops. There's always Uber and Lyft for anyone and everyone who needs that. I ended up walking to the Grandin neighborhood from the 3rd Street Bus station exchange that afternoon because I had time to kill and tried to save a little bit of money. It was money well saved and spent it while shopping at the Co+Op instead. They have a hot bar, where you can buy your lunch and dinner by the lbs. One of these years when my travels permit me to return to Roanoke, I will be able to come back and have lunch or dinner here at the Co+Op. Recommended if you're in the area and want to eat and be healthy. 5.0 stars for the overall experience. Support local! A+
