Over the years tried different diets or health fads. Try to get in vitamins and healthier options…read moreeven when I'm also eating what I please. Whatever my needs have been this store has been amazing at having everything I'm shopping for and more selections then I thought. Any staff every time during my visits have been very helpful and I love how educated they are about what the store carries. Currently doing a Diet and trying to only get in good carbs and lower amount. Been bummed and missing my sweets! Made a trip here and have been so happy with all the ways I can tame my sweet tooth in a healthier way then junk food full of sugar and the wrong fats and wrong carbs. I feel like a kid in a candy store now when I go in for my sweet fix. Went 2 times in not even a week :)

I've been shopping with The Vitamin Shoppe for over 15 years, starting when I lived up north. When…read moreI moved down to Cville, I had to order from their Web site, but then they finally opened a store here in town. I prefer to shop in person for vitamins and supplements so I can more easily compare them. They have a huge selection on their Web site, and an impressive selection in the store. If they don't have in store what you saw on the site, they'll order it for you. The prices can sometimes be different depending on sales, but they do a lot of sales. I often buy their brand for supplements and vitamins, but if you ask for advice, they don't automatically point you to their brand, which I appreciate. The staff are very friendly and helpful and have helped me many times figure out what to get. Their prices are considerably less than GNC and their selection beats everyone else in town. They have a large section for protein bars (including vegan and gluten-free), and you can buy just one to taste them before committing to a whole box. They also stock a lot of muscle-building protein powders and homeopathics. They have a rewards program that gives you so many dollars off each year based on how much you spent, but I feel like they could give more than they do. They also have a bad habit of mailing me a coupon to save me $10 off $75 right after I've spent about that much and don't need to again for a while! The sales kinda make up for it, though.

They have an interesting selection of herbs and natural remedies. Most all the foods are way…read moreoverpriced. I bought a vegan noodles packet which was a ready to heat and serve with flavoring. It was over $8 and tasted like it was so old. The girl isnt very knowledgeable about which remedies, or teas are beneficial. She just points and the guy at the register is plain rude. I think they dont like to work there. Maybe it is the high prices of Charlottesville that makes them so unwilling to be courteous? I continue to shop on line from other resources and may not visit there again.

Integral Yoga is my favorite little grocery store in Cville, it's my go to for divine fresh…read moreproduce. They offer a beautiful selection of local and organic dairy products/ breads/ produce (mushrooms, apples and more) It is a vegetarian grocery so if you're looking for meat there are other options around! I'd highly recommend checking it out if you're passing through town and enjoy seeing local hubs.

While visiting VA, I ran out of MSM and needed to find a GNC. After looking the address up, we…read moredrove there and walked in. Immediately we were helped by the person at the register, I'm sorry I didn't get their name. I asked for MSM and they took me there, asked which size and allowed me to choose. I did, My friend also got the right protien powder she needed too. We were in and out in quick time.

Too Expensive! I used to shop at this Whole Foods and walked in here a couple days ago to buy a few…read morethings but prices are Outrageous high that I walked out for example box of Oatmeal is $4.59 but another Whole Foods I shopped at last week $3.59 (not on sale either). I went to Wegmans and bought Organic Oatmeal for $2.99. I will not shop at this Whole Foods I'll go to Costco and Wegmans where prices are more reasonable.

Whole Foods has been going downhill for years. First, you will find healthier choices around…read moreCharlottesville for less so what's the point. The deli section has nothing enticing anymore. The fruit and vegetables aren't fresh as they used to be and the service in the front is awful now. Why would I spend money here for this?
