That being said,…read morewith its pricier groceries, Whole Foods is not my first stop for a restock - but it is a great place to try out some more unique ingredients and items. I love their Chantilly Berry cake for any birthdays or special occasions! One of my favorites! Both the store and the cafe side of the store are very clean, and the workers there are ready to assist. Definitely a great addition to the Grand Rapids area.

Update time! Harvest Health Foods has expanded since I was there last. I was in the area recently…read moreand needed some psyllium husk so I stopped in. I had fun looking around at all the different items - they specialize in natural and organic products and have something for everyone, whether you're vegan, gluten free, keto, etc. They stock lots of supplements, vitamins, health and beauty products, produce, snacks, even beer and wine. I was asked if I needed help finding anything, but at that point I was still just browsing. I did eventually need to ask for help finding the psyllium husk, and the employee led me right to the section I needed (of course I had walked right by it at least twice). The snack aisle of any grocery store is my favorite, so I had to check it out. I didn't end up buying anything there, but I did find a flavor of sparkling water that I'd been looking for - and it was on sale! The aisles are still a little tight, but it wasn't too crowded when I was there. I really love this locally owned store and always enjoy my visits!

The lady on the phone said let me call to confirm so you do not drive out there for nothing. She confirmed and said they were holding it for me. Harvest Health can be a little pricey, but their service makes up for it. I can always find items you cannot find at "big box" stores.

This place was absolutely phenomenal! It was warm, welcoming and inviting upon walking into the store. Easily accessible through the Main Street this place features ample amount of parking. The store is well stocked and inventory. Features many health food items, snacks, supplements and many other things that a health food store normally provide. They had a special going on as well so I got my items for a great price even though I'm not a member which is awesome of them. The cashier name Jocelyn was very friendly! I highly recommend checking out this store!

I've been shopping at Harvest Health for decades, starting in Grand Rapids. I've been to all the…read morelocations through the years, and all have been consistent until I started stopping at the Holland store. It just doesn't have the vibe of the other stores. It seems like the people working in this store aren't very enthusiastic or eager to help. Last time I went there (within the past month) they were out of 3 things I specifically stopped there for (one of the was just organic ground beef - the cooler shelves were bare). Another of the things was in the skin care aisle, and there was an empty box where the item had sold out. I asked the employee if they happened to have any in back. She told me they didn't, so I asked if she knew when they might get their next delivery (this is actually a common question at Harvest Health and they usually know when the Red Rooster bread will come in, or the Hilhof milk or whatever. The manager happened to be walking by, so she stopped her and told her what I was looking for and if it should come in soon. She just kept walking as she said she didn't know. Later she was by the registers and just seemed really unfriendly as if she were bored being there. Much better experiences when I go to the Hudsonville location or stop at the health food store on S. Washington in Holland.

Yes they're always insanely busy, but that's just to be expected at this point. Even with the crowds I'm always able to pick up a few items and be on my way (especially the Chantilly Cream Vanilla Bean Mini Sheet Cake). What continues to set them apart is their excellent customer service. Staff are always super friendly and it's always a great experience.

I am a Trader Joe's fan. But this store has some of the most wonderful employees. I watched many…read moreinteractions of employees with what appeared to be regular customers. They were sharing stories and saying hellos and goodbyes and it seemed like family. They were in no hurry to bag their stuff and get them out the door; they were genuinely happy to see them and interact. I got to the register and asked for a Michigan regional TJs reusable bag. The clerk went through all the lines to find one- not one available. She even went as far as to ask when they would be- tomorrow. Ok. I will come back! Still $0.99 - one thing that has not gone up in price it seems. The Christmastime treats are in full effect. The gingerbread cookie was ok. Needed more icing and more gingerbread spice! But it was so cute.

All of the staff has always been extremely kind when I interact with them and they do still offer a discount card to frequent visitors that you can use once a month. Will always come here when I'm looking for healthier food because I trust that they have what's best for the mind and body.

Target sells the same eggs for $4.99. A box of chickpea pasta is $7.19. You can find a 6-pack online or at Costco for $10. The prices are ridiculous and they are happy to rip people off. I also saw a grown A man in here without a mask, completely oblivious. No one said a thing and let him check out and walk around like there wasn't a global pandemic going on right now. Not worth the trip unless you have money you'd like to flush down the toilet.

I've had several juices and smoothies and I've never been disappointed. My favorites have been the Liquid Sunshine juice, Blue Moon over Eastown, and Material Girl. I appreciate that their smoothies have quality ingredients, are nutrient-dense, and SO tasty. I often feel like other smoothies I try are actually just sugary fruit juice and I've never felt that way at Good Judy's. I have loved their seasonal menu items as well and I almost always snag the toast on special when I can or the You Feta Work salad. The staff are always so friendly and I love that there are seats to sit in while you wait or you can eat in. I've been grateful that it's always a chill environment when I'm there and I can hear myself think! Also their merch is SO cute and especially being queer, I want to buy it all! I love being able to support a queer-owned business that supports so many other minority owned companies!

The location is right on Wealthy right near the Wealthy Theater and has the cutest art and designs from the outside. There's ample street parking which makes it easy to get to. The staff are INCREDIBLY kind and fun. You should defnitely check out their social media, especially the tiktoks/reels. I had one of the acai smoothie bowls and it was soooo good. I really loved the flavors and different textures. It was incredibly refreshing and felt like a great, healthier sweet treat. They have a little store area on the inside with juices to go as well as local and national snack brands. I picked up a black sesame paste that I can't wait to try out. Definitely recommend coming here!

And it's not all furniture; there are lamps, (new) candles, objets d'art, (new) throw pillows, bookends, etc. Basically anything you could find at Pottery Barn (save linens and tableware) but higher quality and certainly more unique. It's such a comfortable, warm place that my husband and I enjoy just popping in every few weeks to see what's new. Unfortunately (or fortunately!) we've run out of spaces to put furniture. Rick, the owner, has a great eye for quality and style and is super friendly, to boot. Once he offered to lend us his SUV so we could haul a piece of furniture to our nearby home! We declined his very generous offer :-) They do deliver for a fee, for things that can't be wedged into a standard vehicle.
