What People Are Saying About Whole Foods Market

The Scene
People complain about the high prices here, but, for one thing, they're not much higher than any other downtown market, and the sparkling-clean store and great selection more than compensate. Most of the store's products are organic and all-natural, which means you may not be able to find a familiar brand. Items for sale include hormone-free meats and non-animal-tested household and personal care products. There's a well-stocked wine and beer section and a bakery that should make Jewel ashamed.
The Food
Besides the excellent deli (great sandwiches and baked chicken), there's an impressive salad bar which has three kinds of lettuce, half a dozen dressings, more than two dozen toppings (from mushrooms to watermelon), four soups (such as beef barley and chicken gumbo), and about 10 non-salad items such as tabbouleh and a decent but bland pasta salad. All that and the tables by the front windows make Whole Foods a good, noncrowded lunchtime destination.

I frequent this store quite a bit, Whole Foods is a great market. I really enjoy the selection of food choices they have. They have a great salad bar and deli station. This is the reason I keep coming back not because of the great customer service they provide at the store. I have found a lot of the staff there to be quite rude and unfriendly when asked a question or even at the check out line. I wouldn't be writing this is it happened once or twice but since I frequent the store it has come to my attention that it's happening a bit too much. I have starting going to the South Loop Whole Foods and they are great over there! The staff is very attentive and I don't leave the store feeling like I did something wrong.

I like whole foods market. They have a lot of specialty organic foods whicih is hard to find at a Jewel or Domincks. I do have to admit that their prices are a bit high compared to other stores, but this is the price you have to pay for organics. They have a great dessert section too.

Having been to more than a few, this location offers items such as Carol's Cookies (in chocolate chip and sugar varieties) that are hard to find at other locations. They also have a decent birthday cake and very good petit fours as well as an extensive hot and prepared foods section. Of course, this Whole Foods has a vast fresh produce section, a lot of healthy food choices, and is somewhat of a meat (or should I say meet?) market.
