I am surprised that I have not reviewed Whole Foods Market yet. I have been here many times and…read moreover the years it has not changed much. This location has a parking and there is always parking spot available. There was never once I had issues finding a spot. The store is very well stocked. It is similar to Urban Fare. They have some pretty unique items that you can't get elsewhere. They have a very good hot food selection. Lots of organic/specialty items. The store was quite busy when I went. The isles are clean and their items are well stocked.

Since I had been doing a lot of walking and biking, I decided to replenish with a Matcha Collagen, surprisingly smooth with a balanced flavor that wasn't too sweet or grassy. It took almost no time for them to prepare the smoothie, quite efficient especially since there was a steady line of about six or so people. Some locations provide samples and promotions for their smoothies as well, so I had the chance to taste a dragon fruit smoothie which was alright. The only downside is it that their rewards program are tied geographically, so while there are a few of these outside of British Columbia, the program cannot be used for locations in the US. Hopefully they can combine them in the future.

It's nowhere near as big as Whole Foods, but I believe choices which is Canada's answer to Whole Foods does a good job at providing access to a decent variety of natural and artisanal foods and beverages. They even have Wi-Fi and a little aquarium . Very cute . I would shop here all the time if I were a local !

Online order was processed and paid for more then a month ago and the original delivery date was approx. 2 weeks from the order date and due to no stock available the order was delayed and delayed, contacted their "online" chat service and did not get any response for over a week, at the same time, I tried calling their store to speak to someone, they keep saying that the product is on its way but no way to have a confirmed date available. ( I totally understand the current situation regarding the Covid-19, but other online orders were still being delivered within their promised time frame and if they do not have orders in stock they would contact me to let me know and let me have the option to have the order cancelled and refund ). End of April and I called them to please refund my order since there are no way of them to let me know what is happening, called and spoke to customer service on Monday and was promised that the refund will be done within 2 days, a week later still no sign of refund, called again and was told they will look into my file and have "the best person that can help me" will call back within 5 mins., 2 hours later I am writing this review and no sign of any calls from them! You get the idea!!?

Great smoothie bar! The two smoothies I've tried so far (Cookies 'N' Cream, Strawberry Protein)…read morewere delicious and filling enough to be a whole meal. I felt great after drinking! They're made from simple and clean ingredients. The staff is so nice and they also work pretty quickly. They made too much of the cookies n cream smoothie to fit in my cup and instead of discarding the leftover, they saved it and refilled me once I'd drank enough to make room for the it. It's also a supplement store but I'm really only here for the smoothies so I can't review that part.

At first thought it was too sweet but after a few sips I was hooked. Also I caught a glimpse of their ingredients (e.g. the almond butter) and it looked like good quality almond butter (it's actually the same brand as the one we purchase for the house; Nuts to You). Would come try another smoothie from here again.

They used to have a proper holiday meal program where you could pre-order, pick up, and feel like you were getting something special. I remember picking up a whole hot turkey with piping hot sides. This year, it's turned into a help-yourself setup from the Deli counter deli section where you grab items and pay. It feels less personal this year, less festive, perhaps, Thanksgiving came in really fast and perhaps not a lot wanted to do any advance food order. The food's okay for what it is, but the change takes away the polish where the food has generous servings before that made it worth it. Still a solid option if you're in a pinch, but definitely not the same experience Whole Foods used to offer.
