Such a unique store ran by knowledgeable ladies. I 100% recommend you check out this place

The Herb Bar has moved! Now located central (close to Bird Bird Biscuit) I love getting fresh herbs for tea blends! The variety here is phenomenal. They had some cool room & body sprays which Im looking forward to trying! The service is still an issue. The women working her lack customer service skills and generally etiquette for a business.. read more

I've been coming to the Herb Bar for years, but my recent visit truly stood out. A few weeks ago, I was helped by Kassidy , and I honestly can't say enough good things about her. I explained my struggles with anxiety, and she was more knowledgeable, compassionate, and understanding than any professional I've worked with before. She holds no judgment, just compassion and guidance to healing. I've had trouble sleeping for years, and Kassidy took the time to really listen, educate me, and support me in a way that felt deeply personal. She has such a thoughtful understanding of what it's like to be a woman dealing with anxiety, and that made all the difference. I came back today just to see her again and thank her for the help she gave me. It is such a relief to find someone who truly cares, understands the suffering that comes with anxiety, and genuinely wants to help. Kassidy is an absolute blessing,and the Herb Bar is lucky to have her. read more

The Herb Bar had been a game changer for me in my holistic journey. I believe her name is Christina, but she is soooo knowledgeable and has helped me with everything from menses pain, allergies, to figuring out my digestive issues. I love the people that work there more than the herbs LOL read more

Helpful, kind, knowledgeable staff, so many treasures. Can't leave empty handed. There is something for everyone. I have brought my grandaughter with me a couple of times and she loves it too. read more

I had the most drawn out fiasco i have ever experienced with the company the herb bar. I was trying to special order some essential oil, I was quoted incorrectly in email and in person. this lead me to spend most of my gift certificate on retail items. I will admit I was somewhat gullible to believe the price the owner quoted me, but she is the owner. Strangly I was trying to communicate thru email because I was unable to call because of a service issue of some sort and it was next to impossible to get a response. this fiasco started in November and today is January 20th. They recieved the essential oil today and there one redeeming employee sent me an email and called me telling me that the oil is about 7 times the quoted price. That price made so much more sense. So long story short I was misquoted twice for an item I special ordered by the owner Megyn. I spent most of my gift certificate on retail because of this and now the item is in and yes a much more believable and very expensive price and definitely not enough discount for the complete absence of customer care shown by the owner. The herb bar was once a gem that cared immensely about there customers but this just isn't true anymore. read more

My partner took me here as a surprise to try and lift my spirits after getting not so great news from my ob, we're an occult family so naturally i was excited to see what they have and love all things eastern medicine, herbs etc. i felt so calm and peaceful once we entered their amazing store and also got some quality time with the shop doggo named gizmo, she cuddled up to me while i carried her around and it was incredibly healing for me given the anxiety and stress I've been dealing with. There's so many amazing crystals, tarot cards, teas, books, and more! All the amazing women working were so kind and easy to talk with which made things that much better. We will definitely make the trip from north Austin on the regular and i hope to see Ms gizmo again too thank you guys for the healing and positive energy you give! read more

Wow! It's been a long time since I've been here. So my main reason is my boss. She has Cedar allergies really bad. I heard The Herb Bar has this serum and I was willing to grab it for her and hopefully help with the Cedar effects. I'll update how things are going with her. A week after my boss has been dealing with Cedar, I started getting the same symptoms, so I got one of the serums for myself too. I'll update you on my results. Since it has been a while, I wanted to see the changes and see what all the items they have. I did buy a hematite ring, which sadly broke in 12 hours. I was washing my hands and it broke in half. I understand that it's a stone and that can happen, just sad that it didn't last a full day at least. Kind of felt like I bought a ring from a bubble gum machine. I wouldn't recommend buying it to anyone. I do like that they have a variety of smudge sticks. Although I didn't get any this time, I'll go back another day when I'm low of smudge sticks at home and make a purchase. But for now, here are a few shots of the goods they have. read more

They didn't have everything on my list but they had some and much more! Love this place for wholesale herbs and adaptogenics, plus they have fun fairy witchy girly stuff! read more

The Herb Bar - Health Markets Near Me - Austin, Texas

What a treasure in Austin! To actually be able to find so many wonderful herbs from around the world and natural products that don't ruin your skin. Their lip balms are amazing! And they will try to source something if they don't already have it and you really need it. The people working here will provide helpful guidance too. read more

I visited this establishment in the fall of last year and got a weird vibe but thought maybe I had imagined it. I went there again recently and had the same subpar experience. Both of the workers I interacted with were not friendly at all. The person who was helping with the herbs was super friendly and chatty with the person in front of me and even walked them to the register. However, with me, she barely acknowledged me and walked away from me when I was trying to tell her what I needed. The cashier wasn't much better. Now that I see previous reviews I realize I was not imagining it and this place is definitely discriminating against people of color. I'm sure they couldn't care less about my experience because their business is still getting lots of other customers but I needed to leave a review to warn other people of color. There are plenty of other places for herbs and such that would be glad to have your business. This just isn't one of them. It's really sad because I wanted to like this place. You would think in a place that sells healing herbs and other things for wellness, the staff would practice kindness and compassion for all patrons. P.S. any generic response they leave on my review doesn't change my experience and what actually happened. In my opinion, they are 100% a discriminatory establishment. read more

Don't walk, run to this majestic place to find all kinds of quality products. The teas, tinctures and smells. Great friendly staff and you can count on products being the highest quality. Worth the trip for sure. read more

I'm so grateful that a place like this exists in Austin! I learned about it from my functional doctor. The Herb Bar has great, holistic & a little bit of witchy vibes, which is kinda my thing LOL. Taking off one star because the girl at the front desk when I walked in wasn't too friendly, even though I dropped over $100 upon my first visit. read more

What a great shop. Ive been coming here since way before it was discovered by the rest of the country. Housed in a little stone building probably over 100 years old, it sits just off the main drag of South Congress Avenue. Potions, lotions, rocks, candles, herbs, incense, jewelry. You name it they can support your healthy mystical lifestyle with quality products that are source confirmed. The staff is laid back and helpful and you will never feel rushed or watched here. If you are in Austin I recommend checking it out. Checking out the building alone is worth the trip! read more

This is such a cute little shop. From the outside it looks like something from Alice in Wonderland. It's small, but they have so many cool things to look at from books, jewelry, supplements, oils, crystals, teas, herbs, and even tarot cards. The staff is warm and friendly, and they immediately helped me find what I went in for, but I stayed longer to look around. Good vibes all around. Definitely check out the herb bar. They have a couple of 15 minute parking places out front, but I was able to find parking a block away too. read more

Spent the morning looking for culinary lavender and was told about this gem. The Herb Bar smelled fantastic the moment I walked in. Found exactly what I was looking for a high quality product at a fair price. I can't wait to go back and take advantage of their courses. read more

This place is AMAZING! The people that work there help you the minute you walk in and take their time with you to make sure you get what you need! I've also ordered online from them multiple times and they get it out QUICK..also after using their supplements I will go to them before anyone else because they actually work and I have never felt better results. I can't recommend this place enough! As long as they are here I will be buying from them! read more

I love this place! The staff are so knowledgeable about herbs and how they can help with your ailments. I go here every time I'm in Austin and you should too! read more

I visited Atx on a whim recently and this is my second time at Herb Bar. I was greeted by friendly staff and the facility was following precautions for COVID. I bought oil and tea blends. Super excited to try them for this weary winter season to help boost my immune up! read more

I ADORE this place! Though very small, they have quite an array of essential items. Their tea and oils section has VAST options!! As far as stones, they have a good basic selection but don't go in expecting something on the level of Nature's Treasures. They'll have a lot and not have a lot. Staff always has a smile on their face and seem eager to help and talk through your experience. read more

I've been to several herb/crystal shops in Austin, this one is my favorite. Great energies! Serious yet light hearted herb store. I had a wonderful and very helpful chat with Bonnie who works there. Picked up some dreamy dream tea and dream mist. read more

I love this place! My best supplements come from here. Also, they have my favorite cloth masks. read more

The Herb Bar has an excellent variety of teas, holistic healing selections and knowledgeable staff. The Herb Bar staff and products are first rate and highly recommended! Do not make the mistake that I did and have them email you a payment receipt. The Herb Bars' payment/transaction coordination engine almost immediately began sending me unwanted advertisement email spam including erectile dysfunction, home warranty, you need credit, etc, etc, etc. Offensive and ridiculous. Come on Herb Bar mgmt, let's get this promptly solved for your loyal customers! Followup edit: The Herb Bar management promptly addressed the spam issue by removing my email from their payment engine. Almost immediately the spam emails stopped and problem solved. We now pay cash for purchases. Thanks! read more

I look forward to stopping in the Herb Bar once a month on pay day!! I treat myself to a few goodies and always feel fabulous when I get home to use my new stuff! the Rose Crystal face scrub My favorite thing I've purchased is an oil diffuser lamp!! I use the Amber oil and it is perfect for my condo. $70 and worth every penny! I thought about what I spend on candles and it made sense!! Great place to shop for gifts!! Definitely a gem for Austin and 78704! read more

I was looking for a place to buy spices to cook with and found the Herb Bar to be a little more than I was looking for. Since I'm from California, this place is "So Berkeley". Holistic Herbs and Aromatherapy Oils, Teas and Herbs to cure what ails you naturally. I wandered around looking at all the bottles of unknown (to me) extracts. Although I appreciated the shop, it wasn't quite what I was looking for as far as spices. Yet I am always interesting in discovering something new, unique and somewhat out of the way. read more

My friend Steven C. directed me to this spot. We both make small batches of beard oils and these guys totally have the hook up on essential oils! My first impression here is that it looks like something from harry potter on the outside. Some plants cover the entire face of the building and it creates a very nice look. I could almost just sit outside the store, have some coffee and relax. The interior of the business is equally relaxing. Its such a mellow shopping environment and they have enough stock to keep you interested for hours. The selection of essential oils is unmatched the whole town over and the prices are equally great! I cant recommend the Herb Bar enough! If you need essential oils this is the place! They also specialize in some other new age type stuff. That's not my cup of tea but if your want crystals and things like that they have those also. read more

$5 Minimum on card transactions...bring cash. The Herb Bar was definitely a fun experience for me because I'd never been to such an extensive holistic spot that offered more than the typical health stones and oils. They have a room that's strictly dedicated to all sorts of teas. My buddy loves this place because they're incredibly willing to help answer all his questions about which tea will get him closer to his inner self. We were in there for almost 30 minutes and my friend walked out with teas, a protection necklace, and literature. I left with a very strong Oolong/Black/Green tea mixture. The teas run about $3.85 and up for small bags...pretty pricey but people love tea! The incense they were burning was so strong that it stayed in my hair and clothes all day(I didn't care for that). Cute shop and worth the visit. read more

My man has a beard that has become a huge part of his life over the past 3 years. He has been oiling his beard for quite awhile and has learned a lot about this. Over the past year he got into mixing his own essential oils. He heard from a friend that The Herb Bar was the place to go to find all different kinds of essential oils. Boy did we hear right! They had a super, nice selection - different brands, different scents and store made scents. It was way better than going to Central Market or Whole Foods. The price was decent too. They also had tons of other stuff you normally wouldn't find in this same genre of product. If you are looking for holistic they have it, if you are looking for a special rock they have it, if you want a spiritual piece of jewelry or a unique gift this is definitely a place to consider checking out. There was also a wall of loose herbs which I thought was pretty cool. My man ended up spending about $60 on essential oils and he probably got about 7 or 8 different vies of oil. It was totally worth it to keep him groomed nicely and smelling pretty! We will be back I am sure! read more

Terrible customer service. Rude and snobby people. Stay away from this place unless you want to be disrespected

I was a customer that spent about $200 a month going into the Herb Bar based on a phone call with them I'll never go back. I went in, had a bandana mask on, changed it with no qualm when they asked me too and continued shopping. I got what I needed and headed over the the essential oils. I saw signs about shop lifting posted on some shelves and I was the only one in the store. I was standing 2 feet from the register looking at oils when someone walked up to me and said, "Can I take your things to the register for you?" I thought that was a weird question... not, "Can I help you find anything?" or "Would you like me to hold those items for you?" It was almost like I was being asked to hand them over with no option of saying no and the lady was standing so close to me it almost seemed expected. I said, "No, I'm done here." At the register when checking out I saw a sign that said, "Please don't leave things at the register." I was 2 feet away, the only one in there, I was wearing pajama pants and honestly thought they pegged me as a shop lifter. It was super weird. I told my girlfriend about it and she called instead of leaving a review. Which is why I'm here now. Ally answered the phone, my girlfriend put it on speaker so I could hear, and she explained the chain of events in order to tell her who I was. I'm honestly not sure how it got to this point but Ally went off on my girlfriend and said, "F*** you and get the f*** out of here! I've had family members die from covid! Get the f*** out of here! We don't want your business and don't come back!" I honestly wish I recorded it because I would post it all over the internet. We were in disbelief we were when we got off the phone. I understand the pain of that and can deeply empathize, however there is no reason whatsoever that a business should be talking like this to customers. I regret ever spending any money to support this business. Wish granted. I'm never going back. I've moved my business for herb shopping to the Dragon Herbarium in Portland, they have a wider variety of herbs that one can ingest and will ship all of their inventory to you if you are concerned about going out. read more

This place is absolutely extraordinary and even in such a small space, you can get lost in wonder and amazement of all the goodies they have. If you're into herbs and the mystic arts, this is the place for you! My only complaint is that their prices reflect their location. I can buy a pound of quality herb from a reputable source at the same price for 1oz of herb, here. So, if you're a hobby herbalist and just want a cool vibe with friendly employees, then it's great! If you're looking to buy in bulk, you can find much more affordable prices elsewhere. read more

Absolutely love this place, the women that work here are so helpful, with covid now limited 4 people inside mask are needed to enter and they ask to please sanitize before entering which they provide. read more

Friendly and helpful staff. I was able to get various incense, rocks, sage, candles and advice for some ~full moon fun~ at an affordable price. (moon emoji) Excited for some good vibes! read more

I grew up in the emergency medicine culture (amoxicillin for every little thing). Slowly but surely I've been exploring alternative ways to take care of myself in a more holistic and proactive way. I sometimes feel embarrassed that I don't know about much about essential oils or other plant based products. The folks at the Herb Bar are kind, extremely knowledgeable and educate without any hint of judgement. Today I went in to ask about CBD oil. Dani spent 20 minutes with me patiently answering my basic questions, listening intently and sharing her personal experiences. She was supposed to leave on break or had finished her shift but actively chose to finish our conversation. Dani and the Herb Bar are gems and I'm grateful that Austin still supports businesses like this. I came away with CBD oil and the cutest fair trade & local fabric purse. read more

The Herb Bar - CBD oil - Health Markets Near Me - Austin, Texas

Really cute little spot. Lots of cool finds and the people were super nice. Would recommend

After a friend posted on Facebook how much she loved this place, I checked them out online and was stoked to go! I went this morning before work. I walked through the door and a woman who was one the phone said "We have other stuff to put out! I'm sorry I left the door unlocked." Huh? You're sorry you left the door unlocked?? Good morning to you too! I looked at my clock and it was 9:58 (they open at 10:00). I browsed the small section at the front and neither of the other two employees spoke to me. I just left. What a terrible experience. People come to places like these for healing (among other things) not to be treated like they are a burden. I have a list of Xymogen and other products that totaled almost $300 online. I knew it would be a little more expensive to buy it at a store but didn't mind because it looked like such a cool place. Guess I'll go back to plan A. read more

Very cute shop, it's small yet packed with so many cool items. I love their oils and local jewelry. The outside is so pretty and it feels like you're walking into a small little house or something, so cute. read more

I love the way the store smells! I live around the corner but have only ventured in twice. On my last visit my mother and I walked in seeking relief from lower back and knee pain. The ladies in the store are exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable about all their products. Even if you are not here for remedies you can still find your everyday kitchen spices. read more

As you enter the room it is the best calming feeling. So many good energies as you walk in; makes me feel at peace. The staff is so welcoming and the shop has everything I'm looking for always! Love this place recommended to my boyfriend and loves it too! read more
