I stopped in on my way home from a meeting and needed to get several items for a recipe I was trying for the first time. Jody in produce was exceptional helpful and assisted me in finding everything I needed. He was also super knowledgeable and showed me how to determine if certain items were ripe or not. I was very impressed with the selection and with the staff (Jody). I will definitely be back! read more

I always appreciate having a Natural Grocers nearby. The staff was friendly and they have all the typical items I'd expect to find. I was visiting out of town so glad I could I grab a few healthy snacks. I appreciate they sell alcohol also as my location at home does not. read more

Love the store, HATE Ancient Nutrition Multi Collagen. VERY deceiving packaging. Looks like a nice quantity but the container is only 60% full. Natural Grocers should stop using Ancient Nutrition products. read more

Always good. Typically well stocked with good choices. It's a lifesaver for those with food allergies and items slightly off the beaten path. read more

I love Natural Grocers. They're a smaller store but do not lack quality. Their product is trust worthy, staff is knowledgeable and I can find just about every holistic product I need. With todays society, I find it priority to consume clean, healthy foods and support stores that aren't of a huge corporate chains. Highly recommend supporting this company over any others. read more

Love this store for it's awesome selection of natural groceries and have been shopping there for many years. There are few managers that suck (Not Will)! But that is my only complaint. The guy with the long dark hair in a ponytail is AWESOME and one of the best employees they've got right now. He is so friendly, helpful, and kind. I always go to his line to checkout. read more

They replaced the lights in the store. A much needed upgrade. BUT now they're so so bright. I bet employees get headaches. I've found myself going to other NGs when I can for this reason. Now I go in and get out as quickly as I can. Please fix this if not for the customers, for your awesome employees. read more

A well stocked natural grocery store with a large vitamin/supplement area, packaged bulk foods, beauty & hygiene needs, as well as beer. Also, unusual gift and craft items. They even have natural pet food and products. I can usually find most of my grocery needs in this store - plus! As a natural/organic food etc. store their price on some products is slightly higher than generic food prices, but their bulk food/spice selection is a very good deal. My favorites are the Tamari almonds, walnuts, and banana coins. Customer service is excellent. There is always someone knowledge in the vitamin/supplement area to assist in finding what you need or to answer questions and the check out service is excellent! Bring or buy your own bag, or choose from size sorted boxes by the checkout. Join Npower, their point reward system for discounts. read more

I try not to shop here every day I'm in town . Organic produce only and lotsa organic options for everyday meals plus great selection of Kambucha and clean water and my favorite deodorant . Most items are from a dollar less to half the price of Whole Foods . The shop is a good size and people are pretty friendly parking is easy . I love that they have no bags and I always take a box home instead . read more

Great go-to store for my daily/weekly groceries. Strong selection of healthy, organic, and sustainable products. Staff are friendly and helpful. read more

Bumping up the star power was the very least I can do. I'm a fan of their recent renovation and, really, all that the Vitamin Cottage has to offer. For me, this place has everything I need when it comes to healthy products. From food to vitamins to living essentials.. they tend to always have my needs covered! I love the organic produce, the current trendy health fads in stock, locally made goods, and the occasional free sample or 'try me' that intrigues me when cruising by the bath & body section. Sure, this place can be a bit on the pricey side but the quality and love seems to be there each time I walk through the door. Maybe I can catch one of their free seminars someday :) read more

Natural Grocers - Looking out my window ;) - Grocery Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

Rude super slow incompetent staff. Fifteen minute wait to check out a soda in an empty store. Over priced produce. Dumbest rewards program ever. No small carts. No self check out. This place use to care about the ecosystem, now on Earth Day, they give out plastic bags that fall apart first week, instead of washable forever cloth bags. I used to spend twenty thousand a year here, but after dealing with new hire Jamie S. and her passive aggressive condescending superiority complex phony personality, I'm never coming back! read more

I have shopped almost exclusively at this Vitamin Cottage for the past two years. I have since become overwhelmed by the aisles at Safeway and King Soopers and find myself shrinking away from the brightly colored packaging and labels promising that the product within is "Lite". Ack. Vitamin Cottage is a small safe haven from the world of high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oils. Nothing in the store contains either of these atrocities. The store is small, but I usually find what I need. (And my wallet appreciates the fact that VC doesn't have all of the unnecessary temptations that Whole Foods has.) I love that ALL of their produce is organic and very reasonably priced. Much of it is local when it is in season and, on that note, they tend to carry veggies according to their season. (i.e., you won't find an artichoke in December.) The people that work there are super nice and helpful. Oh yeah, and there are tons of vitamins too, but you probably figured that. read more

I am so glad I found organic Burdock root online because now I can completely avoid shopping at Vit Cott, Natural Grocers. The stockers for both grocery and vitamins are wonderful, truly wonderful, so it is difficult for me to rate the entire store for the consistent experience I have with Vit Cott checkers. But the experience checking out of the store is increasingly traumatic for me and colors my entire experience with the company. Again, my gripe is not with the stockers but the POS checkers. What's up VC? I wondered if the checker rudeness was just at the Longmont store so I shopped at the Fort Collins store and the same thing happened! I've never experienced this at any other store and now I choose never to experience it at Natural Grocers again. Basically, when I get up to the checkout I smile at the checker who finishes tallying up my items. I pay and, if I don't say anything, neither does the checker. I haven't been greeted at the start of my turn. No friendly welcome. Nothing. Silence instead. This is so rude! Yes, I can cover up these people's rudeness with my own greeting and conversation, as I and we all do in most of our encounters in the consumer world. However, Vit Cott prides itself on integrity and ethical behavior. I wanted to see what would happen if I kept silent. Would the checkers provide inclusive leadership? No. At the Longmont store, this happens with male and female checkers. My last visit to that store two weeks ago, a female checker even had the gall to say to me "You're welcome" after being silent the entire time and when I was walking away with my items.Why did she feel entitled to receive a "thank you" from me, I wondered? For the privilege of allowing me to go through a pay process that was void of greeting, welcome or polite conversation? For allowing me to feel guilty for paying for products available at your store instead of shopping anywhere else and, therefore, being a part of the contingent that pays your salary, measly at it is at Natural Grocers? The rude comment was only issued at the Longmont store but the silent treatment at checkout continued at my visit to the Fort Collins store last week. Despite knowledgeable and caring stocking staff and because of the rude Vit Cott checkers, I choose not to shop at Natural Grocers again. I won't say never but chances are pretty likely that my $300 - 500 a month for organics and supplements will go elsewhere. There are plenty of other places to buy organic, natural foods. read more

This is my first review on a store. I just have to get the word out about how friendly and helpful these employees at the LONGMONT store are. I've been to a few other area VC and it's not good! Maybe I'll leave a review on those one day. This Longmont store has everything you need in the health field, and they will order what they don't carry. I've used that service before. The cashiers are friendly, they seem like they enjoy their jobs, and most of all, they don't complain if you don't bag your own groceries like the Boulder store does. read more

They do not enforce customers to wear a mask. I told a cashier a customer was not wearing a mask and they said they had a medical condition.. which is not true. Do not shop at places that don't take the pandemic seriously and allow customers to shop while not wearing a mask during a pandemic. read more

My favorite grocery store. The staff is friendly and they always have good prices and a great selection. I will do the drive from boulder just to get the sourdough bread they sell thats made in steamboat, since the location in boulder doesnt sell it read more

Aside from the maze-like entrance, this place is pretty decent I can always find someone to help me out, answer a question about the mystical homeopathic products, find the unidentifiable product that my new cookbook has sent me on a goose chase for. I've always been able to get what I ventured in for. The prices are reasonable, without taking my whole paycheck, and it's convenient. But please tell me, WHO thinks up those goofy commercials, and is that lady as desperately silly in real life as she is on TV? read more

Good selection of healthy, organic food and lots of homeopathic alternatives to conventional medical treatment. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and produce always looks fresh and appetizing. I love how they provide boxes for you to use as an alternative to plastic bags. read more

My go to grocery store. They carry all of my obscure items like local, grass fed A2 milk, Seedranch hot sauce, Culina yogurt and Siete tortillas. The manager couldn't be nicer. Seems like a good team leader. I love that they take Apple Pay. But, it doesn't work, like every other time doesn't work. read more

I shop here almost exclusively because eating organic is important to me. I could go on forever and ever about why I love them, but I'll let the four stars I awarded this store to do the talking on that front. The rest of this review is an open letter to Vitamin Cottage. ***Ahem**** Dear Vitamin Cottage, Please, please, please for the love of god train only *half* of your employees to ask your customers how their day is and if they need help finding something. Seriously. Today, I counted being asked those two questions over THIRTY TIMES by your various workers. In fact, two of them asked me twice since I am apparently so forgettable (my hair is neon colored, so yeah, that was sarcasm). Being asked these scripted questions is bordering on insanity, and I feel like this loving relationship is turning into a stalker situation. Yes, I'm fine. No, I don't need help finding anything, thank you for asking for the thousandth time. Now that we have that one covered, why in the world do you still carry brands like Kashi since they were bought by Monsanto several months ago? I took your comittment to non-GMO foods seriously, so why aren't you? Get back to me, baby, Veggie Q. read more

I'm glad that they at least have something semi organic in Longmont, but it is a shame that it is so disorganized at this store. The bulk spices are stale, or worse yet your chicory will smell like the guy who stocked it, or chili powder. Things, juices, vitamins, etc., will be missing from the shelves for weeks at a time, and the hours that the store is actually open are very close to a bankers hours. Other than that, the store is ok, IF you can stand the stench of patchouli, I find it nauseating. read more

These guys moved a couple of doors down in the same shopping center - it's larger and better lit than the previous location. As always, their customer service is top-notch. read more

Had the best shopping experience monday with the guy who rang me up. Cody was his name, he was very nice and very patient with me as I was having trouble with my card. I loved that he listened and had a smile on his face. He made my day so much better and I hope to come back and see more of him. Every store should have more people like him working there. Thank you cody read more

They work hard to keep the produce fresh & local, the prices are reliably the most inexpensive in town, and they nice a variety of supplements and homeopathic products. Locally owned the people are friendly and community oriented read more

I love how the people checking me out aren't all pushy with forced conversation. Sometimes I'm just not in the mood for a fake awkward conversation while out shopping and most stores find it necessary to train their staff to blow sunshine up your butt. Not here, they are super chill and I appreciate that a lot. read more

There's not much I don't like about this store. They have been in this location for a long time. I like the hours and the staff is usually always very helpful. Many of the products you cannot find at a standard grocery store. I love the grass fed beef and the dried figs. Delicious food and the vitamin selection is outstanding. read more

Everyone is very helpful and friendly. Most importantly, their prices on organic food and produce is much better than Whole Foods!

I've been shopping here for years and love the store. Natural Grocers has a knowledgeable and friendly staff. I like that they only sell organic produce- which is high quality. And their prices are great. read more

dark and disorganized. Good selection of kombucha, but frequently they do not have everything I'm looking for and I end up having to go to a large retail grocery anyway. read more

Really enjoyed my visit there. Prices were a bit hefty for produce. I will definitely come back again. Don't forget to bring a bag (they do have boxes if you forget). read more

ALWAYS ASK FOR A RECEIPT!!!!! This store will not refund you anything if you end up not liking the product, or if the product is bad if you don't have a receipt. I have shopped here for years, and will honestly consider other options based on an unfortunate experience AND the lack of customer service. I declined the offer of a receipt at check out thinking I was doing the ECO Friendly thing. However, when I realized the supplement I bought was not only the wrong version of what I need it also tasted horrible...I brought it back to the store and was told the only way the store could refund my money was with a receipt. Even though I used a credit card, and a member ID. THE COMPANY HAS NO WAY TO TRACE the transaction. There are cameras all over the store, but the reason cited as not being able to take a return without a receipt was fraud protection. The store said they couldn't override company policy and gave me the number to corporate offices. The day I called 5/10 Carol Matthew's voicemail said she would be out of town until 5/15. By 5/21 she hadn't called back, so I called her again. She seemed to not remember getting my message. Her response was that she couldn't override what the store policy was. That felt like a run around. At this point, I am not even concerned about the loss of $20.00 for the supplement. I am advocating to change the flawed practice--if I need a receipt to return things simply give it to me at check out. Don't have an option not to take one. OR change your company's ability to look up transactions from a credit card or member ID number. When I asked why Carol hadn't called me back she said she was on vacation, however based on her outgoing message she had been back for 4 business days. If the little company wants to stay in the health food market step up your customer service. read more

This recently expanded loation is a great place to shop! The fact that all their produce is organic is great. The people on a whole are friendly except for one manager who is slightly bald with glasses. He comes off kind of aloof but the rest of the employees are friendly and very helpful. read more

The last time I was in I was not feeling well and the staff seemed to pick up on that immediately - in every department employees came running over to help me shop and even carry my purchases. This is a lovely store with reasonable prices and all-organic produce. I feel so very lucky to have a branch a mile from me in the town I live in. read more

A good alternative to Whole Foods in Boulder and the only natural market (I think) in Longmont. Love the expansion. They are able to offer a lot more items. Still find the lack of bags annoying. Boxes are better for the environment? Really? Still, I try and bring my own bags when I can remember to do that so it's only a minor nuisance. read more

Love this store for alternative health food brands. Great vitamin section. Love the bulk selections...nuts refrigerated. Dried fruits,herbs,grains,legumes. Good organic veggie n fruit but usually cost more than say Sprout's. No butcher. Best store for bulk and frozen n pantry items as well as vitamins n health products. Also, they were here way before sprouts, luckys, whole foods etc so i appreciated them being the only alternative organic store around back then, so i like to support them read more

Staff always ready to help you find something and they always seem to have a lot of cash register open so there is never much of a line. They offer a lot of gluten free items a bit cheaper then Whole Foods. Although not a huge selection of produce, they always have everything I need at prices way better then average for organics. Love this store. read more

I am grateful that this store exists in Longmont.....where organic and wholesome food stores are limited to say the least. I've shopped there for several years now and have always appreciated the knowledgable and friendly folks that work there. Watch their weekly ads and stock up on some great stuff. read more

Has that natural grocery store stank like all the others, but the deli made-to-go items are delicious, and they have the best vitamin selection that side of town. read more

I like the new vitamin cottage, they seemed to be more helpful than they were in the old location. It seems like the prices are pretty good & the veggies are more fresh. If you want a small store it's a good place to get your vitamins & groceries. My only wish is that they greet you with a smile & be a little more faster @ the checkout stand. read more
