The bottom line: Fresh, local, and organic veggies and meats at a reasonable price (for their high)…read morequality. My favorite part of mom's is the fruits and veggies--you can absolutely taste the difference. Red bell peppers are sweeter, scallions are thicker, greens are more plump. Although I don't often buy meat from moms--except for my annual Thanksgiving turkey--but the local meats and sausage are top quality. The Mom's brand items are also strong options--the coffee is cheap and from a local roaster and the milk (is not cheap but) is very tasty. I love that they have free coffee daily; I always grab a half cup when shopping on a weekend. Although not organic, the beer selection is super, well curated, not overwhelming options, with a range of styles. Investing in food is investing in one's health, the community, and earth and I don't mind paying a bit more for all of that, and the flavor boost. Go to your MOM's!

They don't seem to carry everything I normally get at the Arlington or other locations in the DMV, but they don't seem to have a decent array of items. The employees are really nice and willing to help. I had only been offered help once in the wellness area when the lady was trying to see if I needed anything since I was searching for my precious frozen dog food that they don't carry unfortunately. All in all this is a great market that carries local brands and caters to dietary needs!! I will definitely be back.

This place is my Go To for food shopping close to work…read more As most neighborhood WFs, it's got your standard stuff, your food bars, your meat dept, self serve stations, etc. And a pretty good coffee shop service near one of the entrances. Clean, organized, amd ample space. Plenty of space for cars with their underground garages. They have ample employees handling each area and dept. Like some others, they run out of stuff depending on the merchandise. Employees, for the most part, have been very helpful and willing to assist with requests. BTW, I do like their pizza options & sizes and hot food bars here.

Selections, there are many: Bibimbap (BBB, much Americanized version, yes), sushi & udon, salad bar, hot bar, cold bar and beverage stations. And items are reasonable priced given its location but it isn't cheap either. If you are in DC on culinary quest, nope, this is not your venue. But if you are wandering hungry in National Mall before 3 pm - with a federal issued ID and not carrying anything that would get you kicked out from routine security clearance - give it a try.

I ordered the strawberry shortcake smoothie which was pretty solid, 330 cals and 20 grams of whey protein. At the end of the day, it's a protein smoothie so it's gonna taste like protein powder. That said, for a protein smoothie, it was pretty flavorful! But if you're ordering this expecting a sweet "regular" smoothie, you'll probably be disappointed. There are some other snacks and drinks at the register and a couple of seats, but this is definitely more of a to-go spot.

Honestly, the reason I think this store is great is that it allows greater access to organic foods and foods for alternative eating lifestyles in a community that may not have the same access as others. It's perfect for my sister and I, who are vegetarians, and it's within walking distance of the main strip of Anacostia. Change has to start somewhere and this store is just the beginning. So stop in and help this business grow so it can continue to change the community from within. Check out the other stores and spaces while you're there & don't forget your reusable bag.
