First off, 5 stars for employees!
0 stars for corporate greed…
Support for local products has diminished big time!
No more coffee/muffin deal.
No more bacon at breakfast.
No fresh juice.
At least whole foods didn’t replace ALL its tills with self check out…
I miss Capers.
This has the facade of a health and wellness store but underneath we see corporate greed.
The soul of this store is disappearing, if we feel it as customers I’m sure employees do too. 👎🏼

I went to buy hot bar food and ended up picking a few other items today. When paying for my items I asked the cashier if I could buy a gift card. He said, "Yes, but I'm going to help the next person in line so that he doesn't have to wait." What? I asked why I was supposed to wait as he wasn't finished serving me. I decided to not bother and will get a gift for my friend to shop somewhere else.
The worst WF I’ve ever been to.
This place is horrible.
Some of the staff are very kind and helpful but the ones who aren’t ruin the whole experience.
I only go here as a last resort.
The manager told me to move from an aisle when I was speaking to one of the visiting sales reps for a supplement. This person I was talking to was contracted by WF and had a booth there, so the manager could have negatively affected their sale if I was going to buy.
Really unprofessional and rude.

I just had the worst experience in the supplement department. The staff was shockingly rude. They were out of stock on a product, and I brought the tag to the service desk to ask if I could order it. Instead of accommodating me, the woman snapped at me for bringing her the tag. I said I’m bringing it to you to show you what I’m looking for. I thought it would make it easier for you to scan it. I will put it back. I know exactly where I got it from. She snapped at me to do that now! Then she tried to take it out of my hand to say that she would do it. As I was sticking it back on the shelf! Never again. I’d rather shop where I am treated with courtesy and kindness.
As someone who juices regularly I have to drive here from Richmond to get good quality organic produce. It’s incredible to me that I cannot rely on the local Richmond grocery stores (including Superstore) to reliably carry organic produce. And contrary to what many people believe about whole foods, their organic produce always costs me LESS than when I am able to find it in Richmond!!
I live near this place, so I've been coming here for the pre cooked to go and grocery for over ten years. The store is small, but most of daily necessities an be found here, and the weekly sale items always offer very good prices. There are many employees who will greet you proactively and offer help. However, there are two female employees in the coffee bar department who have been working there for a very long time. Whenever I see them, even though they are wearing masks, I feel like they are not looking at me and do not want to greet me. They seem very indifferent, which is really bad when I come to drink coffee early in the morning. I always say thank you politely, but they still don't respond much. Overall, most of the employees are enthusiastic, and the products are fresh and reasonably priced. I will still come here to consume frequently.
