Going into Sprouts here in the Fairview Shopping Center is always a rewarding experience. Their…read morestore is always well organized, clean, and staffed with very helpful people. Absolutely love their Deli Sandwiches and Sushi selections. Always freshly made and with fresh ingredients. Wednesdays are always a great day with their Sushi Specials. And ordering up a delicious Sandwich combination is always easy. Special shout out to Dee behind the counter. Always helpful, and always with an honest smile. They have also increased their selection of Grab-n-Go food items. This makes having a delicious lunch or dinner all the more special. And as we all strive to eat healthier these days, they have a nice selection of Organic, Keto, Gluten Free, Plant Based, Non GMO, and Paleo items. They also always have a wide selection of Sprouts Brand items, supplements, bath and body products, and kitchen items. Pretty much anything you could possibly need . . . and want. Also love their hours. 7 am to 10 pm, very convenient for early risers and/or last minute shopping after work.

What a beautiful surprise for me, stopping here to buy vegetables (the nearby restaurant has THE…read moreBEST RUEBEN) that taste as fresh as my grandad's farm in Pennsylvania 60 yrs ago!!! So fresh! Healthy, crisp, clean, & more than fairly priced for such a treat, no, not a treat, a tremendously beneficial meal of nutrients and flavor I'd never get at any supermarket and sadly, some Farmer's markets (sometimes)! Happy I stopped by and will return regularly from now on; it's like stepping back to the 50's when all veggies tasted this good!!!!

Also, they get a lot of their stuff where it's just about ready to expire or has expired in some cases For like perishable items. The people there are super friendly and it is changed over the years to a cleaner presentation now with the emphasis more on alcohol it appears, but it is very convenient like I mentioned when you don't want to drive to one of the big grocery store chains that's much further and simply get something really quick. You are going to pay a little more premium for it since you're shopping at this place where they do gotta make a little bit of a profit since they're not a huge change store. As an example if you were to go by a box of cereal there where you can get it probably at a grocery chain store for two or three dollars you're gonna pay probably four or five dollars but again very convenient to have it literally in your backyard pretty much.

My kid gave a gross face when she tasted. I'll be back to maybe try another smooth but I won't bring my young son, he lost it when he saw $30 water.

To be fair, the prepared food is pretty good and it's clean with a nice ambience. The service is usually pretty good as well. The downside is that it's very very very very overpriced. I don't like using repetition of words like this, but in this case, I think it's relevant. It's nice in terms of window shopping but most things in there I would never buy because they are not worth the price in my opinion.

You get a beautiful, clean, very well organized store with fresh and local( love that) organic produce and products. A really nice variety of healthy snacks, protein bars and juices. The premade sandwiches are extraordinary- we had the Veggie and the balance and the taste was phenomenal- no extra mustard or mayonnaise needed. The vegan salad with fried tofu and this divine( I forgot the name) and deadly dressing was fantastic. The quality of the ginger and the lemons bursting with juice was top notch. The manager Robin was stellar.
