Buyer beware I initially came into contact with this business on my bike ride home from the beach. Went in and with only one customer in the store who was at the register, I decided to go thru the aisle to see if there maybe something else I needed. When I couldnt find what I was looking for and no one on the floor restocking, I made my way to the front in which the gal was still with the cashier who at this point I knew it was the owner since they was a boy in the area. As I was standing there, he continue to beg and plead for a good review (Is a no-no even says it below in Yelp) in which the nice gal stated, ooh yes I just came from eating sushi and they asked one for me as well. I had to butt in since at this point, he saw I didn't have anything in my hands. I asked for flavored cream or yogurt in which he said No next week and continued with the gal. Owner responded on Google calling me a liar and the interaction never happened as opposed to acknowledged it and saying he would do better. You can see my Yelp and Google profile, I do not go around trying to ruin business reputation for my kicks. I come on and share my personal experience to let customers know. Now since he carries high end items and if he would of saw me with them, perhaps his tone and attitude would of changed. read more

Gypsea Market - Owner obviously thinks I must of picked his business to make this scenario up. - Organic Stores Near Me - Tulum, ROO

We were in Tulum for a little vacation. On day one we decided to check out Gypsea Market since it was close to our Airbnb. We loved this market. So many unique items and the Owner Philippe was so helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend. read more

Immediately upon entering the empty -zero patrons-store, a worker beelined it for us to curtly say no dog. I understand my 7lb clean beautiful dog might dirty the store ?! but there is a nicer way to address the issue. They saved me from overspending bc this store is so ridiculously overpriced and o was worried with how empty it was that the quality would be bad. We won't be back. I agree chedraui has a lot of great organic products -and a way better price. No dogs in Chedraui either I know, but it's worth it for the savings! read more

We were stoked to find an organic market when we first arrived at Tulum, since I have dietary issues.. but we soon realized how outrageously expensive it was. Prices were close to or more than prices in SoCal. Found some unique products which we enjoyed, but when opening the coffee we bought, there were white bits scattered within the grounds which was concerning. The chocolate we bought was all a powdery color, like it had been sitting for a long time. When left in the car, instead of the chocolate melting, it became a powder. I now question how old everything is in this store. For how expensive everything was, I am very disappointed with the quality of the products sold. I wouldn't be as surprised if the products were much cheaper. read more

We came here on our first full day in Tulum. We bought a full breakfast package ahead of time for three of us. Absolutely fantastic. I wish we ate slower cause I felt like we rushed the experience. Everything was so fresh and delicious. From coffee to the beans. (I know right?). Great service, we were never rushed (we just ate fast). Didn't get a chance to see what else is on the menu, but we had coffee, orange juice, fruit platter, pastry, parfait, and eggs/beans/salad. Good stuff! read more

Surprised but not so surprised at the low reviews. This is your run of the mill overpriced store where you can actually find stuff for a fraction of the price in Chedraui. There are some things that you just can't get elsewhere so this is sometimes handy. Sometimes just nice to walk around and look cool too read more

Bad quality. Over priced. Bottle of kombucha exploded. Eduardo refused to refund or give a replacement. Eggs were old and poor quality. Oscar was very nice but he wasn't working when we tried to replace the kombucha read more

Gypsea Market & Cafe is like a Fresh Market / Whole Food in the USA. They have most all beverages, wine , liquor , beer. Fresh produce, grains , beans, vegetables, fruits. Honey comb honey even. Great place for fresh bread. They have a nice little cafe here that serves food, coffee, and it is very good. I would think twice on the swinging chairs, I could not find a comfort zone eating in them. But it is something different. I would come back here again. Update 1/24/2020. I have been coming here at least once a day since the beginning of the year. The people here and very kind , helpful in assisting you. If you do buy rolls , bakery goods , once purchased and taken out of the store are not returnable. There is a sign that clearly states this at the cash registers. This is for the safety of everyone that shops there. I did meet the owner Phillip, very nice person and he is very customer conscious. read more

I loved this little store! I stayed near it for two weeks and they have some really good vegan and healthy snacks. The staff was friendly and the store is so cute. A hidden gem at the edge of Tulum read more

Not much to say here other than its a co-op. Good selection of bougie and overpriced food. A bit disturbing that a co-op like this can exist along side such poverty. Esp in comparison to the the other grocery store for the locals... read more

Do not recommend. Cute market if you need to get something, almost like a Whole Foods. Do not try the restaurant, the food was alright, service was horrible. Long, wrong, and unapologetic. Save your money, there's PLENTY other options. read more

Omg the pottery and food was always well kept very well and staff is very helpful in finding certain organic, gluten free, and vegetarian items we're looking for .. since were a mixed family of different eating needs. Staff was always humble on entering and very knowledgeable and helpful in any need we're looking for. Highly recommend. I know prices are like American prices but worth finding the groceries as items we wanted. read more

Gypsea Market - Grocery store organic, vegan and gluten free items. Definitely a place to visit. - Organic Stores Near Me - Tulum, ROO

over priced products, which i dont mind. but when u ask for an exchange because their kombucha blew up, they will not take responsibility about it. it blew up in our room like a bomb. bad quality bottle. stay away as much as you can; this place is a rip off. good thing i was away from my bed when this happened. they knew this shit blows up, another employee warned me about it. i let it rest and all. it blew up on its own. dont buy anything from this store. they dont do refunds or exchange for a product. i dont even need a refund. i just rightfully need an exchange. their cashier eduardo didn't do anything he said he cant do anything. he also said he doesn't speak english. but the other day i saw him speak english. this place is a scam. over priced low quality products. read more

Terrible shop with everything is way too overpriced. Example: Merlot casa madero 750ml costs in the wine shop next door "off the wine" 445 MXN (off the wine is an amazing shop btw) and in Gypsea the exact same bottle is at 680 MXN. This means 150% of the price that you can get 2 steps further. Expect EVERYTHING to be overpriced. read more

Did not visit the market but the restaurant part is not good. Long wait times on the food and drinks and nothing we ordered was up to par. Pizza was not tasty and they still made us pay for it. Would not recommend at all. read more

I really wanted to like this place. It's marketed as almost a small local organic Whole Foods, but their selection is like some sort of a gift shop. There store isn't sustainable for actually grocery shopping and everything this heavily overpriced, even things you could buy at a convenience store a few blocks down for much cheaper. Their wine selection looks like they have no organization other than maybe shelving them in an ombré order for the aesthetic? Their cheese selection is comical in comparison. This is an organic store for someone who has never been to an organic store. But if you are a natural food grocery shopper, I wouldn't get too excited. read more

The iced lattes and food is really good, I'll give them that. The ladies who work at the register are completely useless and rude. If it wasn't for the food, I wouldn't go back. It's a shame because at every other market or restaurant I have been to during my stay in tulum has been so nice - the people here are extremely friendly and helpful, regardless if it's a gas station or a high-end restaurant. read more

They market themselves as a health food store, but most of their food is not organic and even the prepared food they cook in house has toxic ingredients in it like canola oil. Their bulk section leaves much to be desired, as all the nuts there are stale and rancid. And on top of everything the employees and owner are extremely unfriendly and rude each time. read more

Customer service is awful and human decency and respect is not a thing here. Way overpriced. Cute place though.

Have been shopping at the market since it opened. Decided to have breakfast today. We sat for almost 15 min and my friend asked if they could serve us. Finally came with menus. Took a while to get our drinks and ordered our food then. Waited over an hour and finally walked out after being told 3x our food would be there soon. No, we weren't rude or obnoxious. I felt from the beginning that the waiter didn't want us there. Too bad....the menu looked good. read more

Lol I bought a few items here and the total came to 100 USD in Mexico for subpar goods . I don't understand for the life of me how my bill ended up so high. At a Whole Foods or Met Market what I bought would've been 50-60 tops... and then to come home and try things only to discover that I didn't like 80% of the things I bought... I def won't be back. read more

Tourists and residents of Tulum, beware of this establishment. Living in Tulum for 4 years and counting, I had the worst experience customer service-wise at this store. This place does not welcome shoppers and it does not treat them as such. And the worst part, it was that it came from the very owner of the place (the French guy). Three weeks ago, I had some guests in my house, and I went to Gypsea Market get couple of beers and a bottle of wine. Knowing that this store is an over-priced tourist scheme that charges everything double to tripple, I still went there because the gas station was further down the road, and I did not want to keep my house guests waiting. So, I grabbed about eight Victoria beers and a bottle of white wine. I went to the counter and paid with the card. Then, I asked the owner (the French guy) for a plastic bag. He said : "No, we don't give plastic bags, they are five pesos." I have offered a hundred dollar bill to pay for the plastic bag, and he refused because he did not want to change this bill. Then I have asked him if I can have a plastic bag to put my beers and wine, and bring five pesos tomorrow, because I was on my motorcycle and there was no way for me to carry them on my scooter without a bag. He said in French accented Spanish: "All the people say the same thing as you, and they never pay five pesos." Okay then, then I demanded the refund, because I couldn't carry the bottles without a bag, I had no choice but to go to the gas station. Then He said rudely in annoyed voice: "I can not refund you, because I have just charged your card, this is not possible!" Then, I have realized that there is some kind of problem of narcissistic attitude with this person. I did not understand why he would not give me a bag to safely take out my merchandise. I tried to grab bottles with my hands, it was kind of sloppy trying to hug all of them. I carefully walked towards the exit and the owner said: "Come back tomorrow, and maybe we will see", meaning he might give me a bag tomorrow. I had offered all the options, to ask for a bag, to pay for the bag with $100 bill, to get the refund on my card, and he turned all the options down. He left me with no choice, but to walk out with the bottles in my hands. Eight bottles of beer and a bottle of wine. I had put all the bottles down on the scooter floor, holding them loosely between my legs. As soon as I turned my scooter on and crossed the gravel of the parking lot, I stepped on the main street, and the three bottles fell of the motorcycle, splintered on the highway. I had to put down all the bottles on the side of the road, so I could clean up the glass from the main road. I do not understand this man's attitude. Some Tulum locals told me the same about him, that he is a rude, condescending narcissist. If he does not want to provide the means for his customers to take out the merchandise safely from his store, he does not deserve to own and run the business. Customer service and customer satisfaction are the most important things. If you are unable to understand and provide this, then you are incompetent and should be put out of business. Hopefully, my note will serve to those who demand great customer service, considering the money they are paying. By all means, avoid this store. Go to a gas station down the road, or take taxi to a supermarket or a liquor store, it will be worth your while, you will save money, and on the top of that save your self from dealing with rude unkind people. Shoppers, tourists, locals, beware!!! read more

Gypsea Market - Weird Bloody Mary - Organic Stores Near Me - Tulum, ROO

Amazing place and service. We were working from Tulum for a few weeks to escape Covid in the US. This became a great outlet for us. When the power went out in our area, we posted up in their cafe to work and had breakfast, lunch, and dinner. All three were amazing. The owner kept checking on us and had great conversation and tips. We never felt like a bother even though we were there all day. We came back several times after this. The food was fresh. During our stay I tried several juices, smoothies, the veggie pizza, portobello burger, and beef burger. Everything was impeccable. The veggie pizza has a very light and think crust but loads of topping to fill you up. read more

This place is a shithole. Their staff is rude and not friendly . They are the highest priced grocery store in tulum and could have better training or etiquette . They don't explain anything about the menu in their cafe and disappear if you need basic things like utensils. It baffles me. read more

Excellent eatery and market!! My favorite place to visit when in Tulum with a breadth of food to eat at the restaurant and all FRESH. The market is great for all dietary needs. And the people that work here are AMAZING, friendly and warm folks that take pride in the food they serve. Must visit when in Tulum especially if you are looking for good food to fill your Airbnb or rental. read more

The food is not good here at all. I ordered fish tacos and they were smelly slimy and dry. Could not eat.

One of my favorite places in Tulum. I tried the detox tonic, vitalidad juice and the veggie pizza. My friends tried the green juice, vegan 4 cheese pizza and the beef burger. Everything was really good. I love that they have so many vegan options. At first I thought it wouldn't be that good since the menu was so big but I was wrong. It's a grocery store so all their ingredients are fresh. In addition to the food their service was also really good. The owner came out and discussed the food options with us and even brought out a bunch of cheeses for us to chose for our pizza. read more

Had an peculiar sweet liquid bowl with sallad floating around in it at the cafe but the real surprise was that I managed to spend 18 USD on 2 protein bars and a bottle of Evian in shop. Overall, good selection if you happen to travel with a mixer (mostly smoothie additives) or if you're into hummus. Service as elsewhere in Tulum: shocking. read more
