On the way out not realizing I forgot to pay for the smoothie ( had just had bloodwork done and felt extremely lightheaded) the security guard completely harassed me saying I had been there last week and saw me on camera! I had never ever walked into this store in my life. I apologized and said I didn't mean not to pay for the smoothie-went immediately to the cashier and paid. Meanwhile the guard and got the owner/ manager who insisted that he caught me on video camera last week! Again I explained that I had never been in the store before and had stumbled upon it on way from the Drs office. I tried to apologize saying I don't live in the area have never been there before and just walked in after a Doctors appointment because I didn't feel well. The guard and the owner/ manager continued to harass me and continiued to rant saying they caught me on video camera last week. Insanity!!! I will never ever set foot in that shop again and hope nobody experiences this. So glad I do not live anywhere near this awful store!

Westerly Natural Market is one of those neighborhood gems that I'm really grateful to have close to…read morehome. They have a huge selection of great products - from fresh items to specialty and natural foods, so it's always easy to find something interesting or high quality when I stop in. One thing that really stood out recently was that they were open during a blizzard when so many other places were closed. That kind of reliability means a lot to the community and was incredibly appreciated. The staff are consistently kind, attentive, and helpful, which makes shopping there a pleasant experience every time. You can tell they care about their customers and the store. The prices are a bit on the higher end compared to larger grocery stores, but for a local market with such a great selection and such wonderful service, I personally don't mind supporting them. It's the kind of place that's worth having in the neighborhood.

Westerly Market obviously has a good selection of vegan and organic products and their produce,…read moreimo, is a notch above WFoods and other stores but... I agree with other some other reviewers that the people who work there - cashiers aside who are usually very nice - can be rude and aggressive. Somehow many, not all, of the workers/managers could care less about customers versus their task at hand. The result is lack of respect that manifests in intrusive behaviors such as bumping into customers without apologizing, not moving to let customers navigate the narrow aisles and yelling/pointing while directing another worker while customer is literally right there which is akin to invading personal space. The concern is if the store's history and future potential becomes overshadowed by obnoxious behaviors and lose too many customers, over time, to stay afloat. I'm not yet ready to bail but am getting close, unfortunately, esp given alternative markets and/or online options for the same products.

While helped a little, but nothing was taking away the excruciating pain I would feel after walking about 20 blocks. I planned a trip to Greece this last summer and was super worried about how my legs would hold up. So, I went to see Chow and asked her to help me. She recommended a natural supplement for every day use and then another supplement if the pain became excruciating while I was there. To my amazement, both were the life saver that I needed to have the perfect time in Greece. No pain in my legs, but maybe once or twice when we had walked extensively. And now I can't believe it, but I'm completely pain free. If you're suffering from any ailment, I highly recommend you see Chow, she's so knowledgeable and will give you her best recommendation to help you.

It's a health food store so it is filled with vitamins and other health remedies. It can be a little overwhelming to see all of the items if you don't know what you want. But, in my experience the staff is really helpful. They also have a variety of Patties filled with lentils, soybeans, etc... they are a healthier take on a traditional Jamaican patty. Sometime the wait for the smoothie can be long. This is not the place to go to grab a quick anything. So make sure you have about 10-15 minutes to spare before you place your order.
