They consistently have the best selection. I seem to find almost everything I need there.

A few weeks ago we went shopping to the LPG Biomarket for the very first time. We bought enough…read morefood for a few weeks. I am new to Germany so I hold supermarkets to the same standards I am used to which might not the norm for the stores here. We bought meat that we ate the same day and was excellent. Everything else we had to throw away because it was already expired. Yes all the food (milk,cheese, yoghurt, salmon, spreads you name it). All was expired at the moment of the purchase, some even a few days before. It was ridiculous, next day had to go shopping again.I didn't check expiration dates because I assume that supermarkets don't keep on their shelves expired food, now I do. My advise is that if you shop for anything there check the expiration date before putting it in your cart.

I looks good. But they don't open at 8am. I'm outside right now 8:50am and it's closed…read more Please change that! It's a lie.

I've always tended to avoid Reformhäuser, as they are often more expensive that other health food…read moreor bio stores, but sometimes they are your only option. We came to this location in search of Flohsamen (Psyllium), after striking out at our other regular haunts. They had a few different kinds, and though it wasn't cheap, it wasn't all that expensive either, considering how long it lasts (at least for my baking purposes). We also checked out the rest of the store and I was surprised to see how extensive the vegan section is, with a lot of fake meat and tons of vegan cheeses--I would venture to say the "cheese" selection rivals that of the two vegan grocery stores in town. Naturally, it's also rather costly, but it's good to know that the options exist. All in all, Vitalia is going to cost you a pretty penny if you do all your shopping there, but it's worth keeping in mind for some of the more obscure products you might be missing elsewhere.

This store was very clean and organized well. Unfortunately there wasn't much of a selection for…read morelactose-intolerant people. I am always disappointed when a health food store doesn't carry any meat or cheese products because these are difficult things to find bio/local etc. I also wish there was some sort of bulk section. I have yet to find a store here that carries bulk herbs, spices or grains. I am sick of all the bio packaging! However, the gluten-free section was impressive and affordable. Plenty of tea blends for a good price as well. The prices of the bio bread near the counter are VERY good but some other items (rice milk, almond milk etc.) are much more expensive than at a regular supermarket. This is understandable considering the fact that this is a small store but disappointing for someone on a budget.
