Whole Foods Market

Love this Whole Foods!!! I go to school in the area, and my favorite pass time is to walk to this location and shop around. The place is very clean, and the staff are super friendly!! The floral department always has a fresh selection every time I go! Definitely recommend this Whole Foods 😊

Whole Foods is a great place to find organic food, vegan bakery items and other food that you may not be able to find at other stores. They have an amazing produce and floral area! they also sell a great variety of local and nonlocal brews and wines. They have a wide selection of ethnic foods as well. If you are gluten free this is the store for you! Or if you have any food allergies. They have a hot food bar and also take back returns for Amazon. You also get special pricing on many items if you have Amazon Prime. So much I could say about this store, best to check them out yourself. Free parking all over!!! and a Garage!!!

Awesome supermarket. Lots of great food items. We like a lot their different kinds of bread, their dry fruit, their bulk items, their chocolates, and their cheese.

Today at this location … A line of panhandlers outside. Horrible sewer fumes outside front doors. Employee(s) that absolutely reeked of pot stench so much that the aisle they were stocking also stunk. A barefoot child on a leash. Two employees standing at self checkout actually discussing their “nose boogers” out loud.

I’ve been a loyal Whole Foods customer for years and I love the atmosphere. Everything is so clean, all the staff are extremely friendly, but my experiences with an employee named Jennifer (often at the cashier) have been nothing but frustrating. Every time I’ve had to return an item or ask for help, she’s been very rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. Her attitude is unacceptable ,disrespectful and borderline discriminatory. And she’s been like this even if it is just a question or a simple return she finds a way to be very rude. It’s reached a point where I actually avoid coming to this store just to not deal with her. Whole Foods should really look into how she treats customers because this kind of behavior drives people away. I live in a building right by this Wholefoods and have heard horror stories from multiple of my neighbors about her as well! Extremely unprofessional.

I have been a whole foods customer from a very long time. This particular store is located on the ground floor of the orion apartments and is very nicely located and visible too. Has a separate section for plant based food. As usual they have many organic options and recently many poping up vegan options.

Great service and free off street parking. They also have a safe and secure place for online pickups. One stop shop ,for quick meals and cooked meals.

Love this place because it is so close to Forrest Park, Delmar Loop, The Hill and the Zoo! When I go, it's a two hour drive to get there but they have free parking and the staff are always friendly and helpful. The bakery is my favorite place to fill my bags to last me for a week or so. The pictures will say it all!

The cookie bar hands down is the most amazing part of the store. Today's selection: pistachio cookie, macadamia cookies and raspberry chocolate cookie. The macadamia cookie tastes like it's covered in toffee. Yum! Furthermore, this market place reminds me of my dear old dad's market: B & M Produce Market from Edgemont, IL. Only thing missing is me standing behind the counter offering up some hot donuts or food from the hot bar. I frequent Whole Foods regularly.

Finally had the opportunity to try a slice of the cheese pizza. It was fine for Lent; not spicy, mostly cheese! More well done (black on parts of the crust) than I anticipated. Chewy and tasty. Great for a quick lunch. No MSG and No sugars! Now, I'll likely explore more of the options for a quick bite.

Worst selection of bar food. Picked over and it s only 6 pm. Dirty , messy. Made two salads. They had no lettuce ! The hot bar was just as trifling . I guess the quality went to Bezos wedding in Venezia. Not my usual quality Whole Foods we have in Illinois or California. I guess I'm lucky that it was a Whole Foods. No Svc staff. I guess maybe I need to come earlier. Like am Hours

Great location! I absolutely love their salad bar and hot food bar--fresh, flavorful, and always well-stocked. The store is spotless, and everything is easy to find thanks to the clear aisle labels. They do require a code to access the restroom, which you typically get after making a purchase, but I've found that customer service is often kind enough to provide it while you're shopping. (As a pregnant shopper who can't always wait, I really appreciate that!) The selection here is fantastic, and I can always find everything I need in one trip. Highly recommend this location for both quality and convenience.

I love this Whole Foods location. We mostly go to grab cakes from the bakery. The Berry Chantilly Cake is my favorite cake anywhere! The icing is so light and tasty. If you're worried about them not having the cake or tart you want for a celebration, you can always order it ahead of time at no extra cost. The hot food bar is also worth a visit if you're looking for last minute lunch or dinner. As far as the actual shopping goes, the store is well laid out and it is easy to find what you're looking for. If you struggle finding what you need or going through the self checkout, the employees are super helpful. Prices are good here and there. There's always one or two good deals happening, especially if you are already an Amazon prime member.

Great Whole Foods location. The store is clean and bright with a great selection of items. The hot food and salad bars and freshly packaged meals are really nice options to have. Service is friendly and efficient. There is parking available in the parking garage.

Someone gifted me a cake, flowers, and fruit from here. Delivery was an hour late and the flowers are beyond ridiculously crappy. The cake is smeared all over the sides of the container. This is a $15 delivery PLUS tip. Disgraceful. Happy birthday to me

I like their fruit mixes. It's always bright and fresh. Their seafood and meat counter offers great choices. The staff is friendly and eager to help. The store offers fresh and healthy options to cook with. Open parking lot and wheelchair accessible. Recommended.

They're pretty pricy but I think the effort they put in to ensure the quality of their food makes it pretty worth it. Their salad bar is amazing and makes for a filling meal.

The parking garage can get chaotic but the store is bright and clean . This place is always busy and the staff is efficient but not super friendly sometimes. Good selection of produce , groceries , baked and cooked foods.

The only thing better than staying with friends in the CWE for a week is having access to a WF within walking distance. Supplied us with just about everything we needed.

If there was a -5 to leave a review for the baked goods in Whole foods, especially the so-called fresh pastries and cupcakes... Then we would give it a -5! After spending around $5 for a single cupcake we not only found it hard like a stone to cut through but the sweetness made it impossible to eat that stuff. Very unfortunately highly overrated... Never going to Whole foods again. Literally a scam in the name of organic food.

I love shopping here - always great customer service & product selection. They carry local Mennonite cage-free eggs which makes me really happy! I appreciate that Whole Foods works with local producers. Shout out to the youngster working the floral department who helped me land on this happy little arrangement I popped into a previously-enjoyed jar of peanut butter! The gentleman was super fun to work with & smell things with. I've loved all the staff I've encountered here & so enjoy my morning shopping trips! Such a great atmosphere :))

Live a block from this Whole Foods store so am frequent it often. This summer the outside seating area has needed attention. The furniture requires cleaning, power washing of the floor/concrete, and either remove the planters containing dead plants or replace.

I have to upgrade my review for Whole Foods Market. When I wrote my first one, Whole Foods has just opened and they were having some problems getting their act together. Now I love going here especially for my fresh fruit and vegetables. If you need some type of unusual vegetable (like ramps) they will have it. We were even able to try Jackfruit. I also love getting a loaf of their Italian bread (they'll slice it for you) for the week. Get a French baguette and buy one of their cheeses from their marvelous selection of cheeses. They'll give you a little taste if your not sure about it. And what everyone seems to go for - their hot food bar, salad bar, sushi and many other ready made items. Would I go back here? Of course I will. I love looking at the different foods that they have.

Great social distancing and COVID-19 Safety measures with an attendant at the door to limit maximum occupancy and provide masks for people who enter. Called ahead and found they were one of the few grocers who offer yeast in stock, which was set aside for me until I could arrive, and available at customer service so I didn't have to wander the store- chalk that up to no one in this neighborhood wanting to make their own bread.

Love how this store is a short walk from work. The food is always hot, fresh and delicious. The hot bar, cold bar and other food serving areas are always clean. The staff are police, patient and helpful!

What is going on at Whole Foods?? Walked in today to get some groceries and was appalled. Empty produce shelves (it was after 12:00 noon), moldy strawberries on display, employees in the checkout scrolling on their phones, and general disarray. It was awful. I turned around and walked out. Amazon bought Whole Foods and it just plummeted as far as quality, service, and experience. The food is still extremely expensive. Pay your employees fairly, allow them unionize, and let's get back to getting what we pay for.

Lovely & convenient Central West End location. At the intersection of West Pine & Euclid. This long overdue Whole Foods grocer is a great addition to the neighborhood. They offer free garage parking, local swag merchandise for sale and of course an endless array of fresh produce, dairy, frozen foods, meats, seafood, hot bar selections, pizza, sushi, sweet tooth fillers, health care items, essentials oils, vitamins, cosmetics and me (on occasion ;) I absolutely love the layout of this store; namely the coffee bar area. You can grab a cup of Joe and cop a squat at the bar where there's a TV for your entertainment. The "baristo" is super cool and very efficient. Be advised you cannot checkout your grocery items at the bar. Certainly not my only option for healthy shopping in the area however, this WF is a nice new alternative with lots of charm. ~Christy

Love the food specialty staff, and of course the grocery options! The cashiers and baggers definitely leave me with a Seinfeld soup nazi feeling though, so you do lose a star for that!

Imagine an upscale bodega and this would describe the CWE location. Upscale bodega u may say how so .Well bodegas are known for having limited supply of inventory bc of space and prices are usually higher because they are neighborhood corner stores. The CWE location was definitely limited on inventory supply bc of space and the prices were normal Whole Foods prices. I do like that eventho the store is smaller than the Brentwood location, it's big enough and well lit enough to make the customer not feel cramped. There is free garage parking for customers which is a plus in this area.You park and walk right into the store

Definitely the best of our three Whole Foods stores. The salad and hot food bars are going to be a big draw for the employees of the Barnes and Cortex campuses. It is easily accessible from all areas of the CWE and the parking garage eliminates the nightmares of the parking lot at the Brentwood store. This location has the same high quality meat and seafood departments as the other locations. The produce selection outshines any of the other grocery stores within the CWE neighborhood as well. It's obvious they took the width of the aisle into consideration when designing this store. They are much wider and easier to navigate with shopping carts. As with all WF stores, the staff is eager to offer friendly and professional assistance. Whole Foods is a great addition to the Central West End. My future shopping trips to WF will be done here. When: May 25, 2016 Why: Grand Opening

The worst hot food bar I've ever seen at a Whole Foods. The food looked old, picked over, and had that getting-crusty-around-the-edges look of food that's been setting under heaters for a long time. Fortunately, I was able to scavenge a reasonable lunch from the items that looked least worse off. Everything else in the store was reg. Big fan of the kombucha selection, and canned coffees. Because of it's proximity to the hospital, I'll give it another try, but perhaps I'll go at 11 instead of 2 to get the food while it's fresh.

Fresh fruit, fresh veggies, fresh meat. Everything is claimed as organic. What else is better than Whole Foods?

I was staying above this Wholesfood on a visit and love shopping here. Since it's close to Illinois, I got to see some "local" Illinois treats. The salad bar is fantastic!! The store closes at 10pm daily and the food was still fresh when I got in around 9:30pm. Didn't even look like it's closing time! Would love to come here again as it is close to a lot of other places, like the world's largest chess piece

I was working on a job assignment at Barnes Jewish Hospital a few years ago when WFM in the West End was just starting to break ground. I'm back for another job assignment at BJC and am pleasantly surprised to see it finally open! I'm a regular shopper at WFM's in California and always shop at them when I'm on the road traveling. This store in the West End is top notch. Easy parking, great service and all of my favorite items are always available.

We came through Whole Foods to grab lunch for a wedding we were in today and Allison was such a sweetheart! She gave us a goodie bag of samples of make up wipes, lotions, pain reliever lotion, etc. such a sweet way to go above and beyond for her customers and a fun gift we can go back and give to the bride! Thanks Allison for a great experience!

It's no secret that I will make a special trip to Whole Foods for their mad to order tacos. They are the closest thing in Saint Louis to Mas Tacos in Nashville, which to remind you, would be my last meal on earth. I just want to give a shout out to David, who has made my tacos twice in the last month. He is phenomenal. David is the best taco makers of all time. Do you get it yet? He is tidy and quick, overall, but takes the time to get all of the juice out of each topping so that the shell doesn't get too soggy, making him my favorite person every time I go in. It's literally causing me to go out of my way to visit this location. Also, it's important to note that this whole foods has Oat-ly, the best oat milk of all time. Julia R and I pick it up every single week. They use to not have it at the Brentwood location and now they do, so nobody panic, you can get it there too. This location has really really nice happy hour specials on beer and wine, and a beautiful patio to enjoy them on. Not to mention, if you're an Amazon prime member and buy produce (aka if you're a human, these days)... coming here is a no brainer. Cheers, Whole Foods, you kill it at my two favorite things: beer and tacos! Well done.

Great selection and staff!! I hate leaving the city and driving to the county and so happy this WF has so many options. I bought their full Thanksgiving dinner and everyone was so impressed how awesome it was. I loved it because it was already cooked and prepackaged and ready to reheat.

I was so happy to come upon whole foods in the area while i was in town. They had a great selection of prepared foods and also their cheese department was great for such a small store. They even had these mini cheese pieces of the bigger cheeses- enough to buy and try before buying a bigger piece. I picked up some snacks and it was nice to see a full aisle of nuts and seeds to buy by the ounce. Overall, a great spot!

I love / hate Whole Foods. I love it because it's fresh, wholesome food and cool "stuff." I hate it because it is so dang expensive. But I suppose specifics to this location are required... I have visited several Whole Foods in the St. Louis area, and this is a nice one. Staff were super helpful (where's the fresh basil; where's the pinenuts; can I sample that interesting looking chicken salad ((confession I know it's delicious, I just wanted a snack)); can I sample these 5 different cheeses; where's the bathroom...) I also love how clean and organized the store is. Parking is a little cramped - unless you go for the garage. This is a busy neighborhood that has a lot of foot traffic. It's not the friendliest for us motorists - I had to back in to my angled parking space dodging oncoming traffic and restrictive construction zones in the area (thus the minus one star). If you're a Whole Food foodie, you'll like this spot. It'll live up to your expectations. If you're a frugal shopper, then this store no matter the specific location, is probably not for you. Not unless you won the lotto. Me? I wanted fresh, wholesome food and had some money in my pocket. So I started my new year off with the promise of fresh and organic. That resolution will probably be gone by January 10th, and I'll be back to Aldi's until the tax refund comes in!

For such a small space, I dig this Whole Foods. The parking situation is a lot less dramatic than at first glance, with an attached garage. I typically come here for the food bar and loose ingredients. I love the selection at the food bars, and I've always encountered fresh pizza on my trips (usually what I'm there for ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). The ingredients on the food bars are always fresh, and I like that they rotate salad bar ingredients. I use it as an opportunity to try vegetables or salads i usually wouldn't encounter or buy. I like that there's a spot for drinks here, as well as the coffee shop. I have yet to make it to happy hour or brunch, but I hear it's great. I usually make it through the line pretty quickly, and the staff is always friendly. I'll be back for pizza. Don't judge me.

Mismanaged nightmare. Dozens of employees working with only one checkout open at 10:30 on a Saturday morning. There were literally a dozen people in line for the single checkout.

Great store. The staff could be a little more friendly, a little more knowledgeable (whatever happened to training?!), but the general ambiance is lovely, the selection is good, the stuff is ALWAYS fresh.

Love coming here, love that there's a central west end location and love their salad bar and hot bar! Slightly pricey for groceries but you're paying for a certain type of food and brand. Everything is pretty healthy and their food is really fresh. They've got everything you can think of- from sushi to pizza to freshly made desserts. Lots of cool juices and drinks to try. Super convenient if you are located in the central west end. Fruit, vegetables and fish always fresh.

Honest moment time, I rarely go to Whole Foods. It has great specialty items and pre-made food but overall it's too expensive for me. I stick to my guns: Schnucks and the occasional Trader Joe's when I feel like driving. What got me in this new location you might ask? A lovely $25 off $75 worth of groceries intended for a former resident (or current resident - I ain't no thief!) of my apartment. I went in here with a Mission to try their inferior version of a Sushirito (Burrito+Sushi) and get my moneys worth out of this deal. No one else does it in STL that I know of so I have to work with what I got. Overall it was better than your average grocery store sushi but still not very good. Every time I buy pre-made grocery store food I regret it. It's pretty much never worth it but I hear Whole Foods has a good hot food bar. The biggest boon to this location is the parking. It's a gold mine for parking spots. It has it's own private garage #luxury in the CWE neighborhood. Overall a solid market and let's hope they send me another coupon!

This location is definitely catering to young professionals and/or people who study/work at the medical school. They do have parking, although I hate driving in CWE so I've never used it. I jokingly refer to Whole Foods as "Whole Paycheck", and this location is no exception, but it does make sense given the demographics. In addition to the ready to eat food options, they also have a small coffee shop and beer bar with a small handful of taps and fantastic happy hour prices. My biggest beef with this particular location is that the layout is odd and not like any other Whole Foods I have been to. It generally feels cramped, and the organizational pattern doesn't make a ton of sense in my opinion.

Never ordering groceries there again over 2 hours late.....

dammit a WF that is great hot bar, clean and happy employees. this would be an impossible find in Texas walkable great hot bar great tacos great pizza great beer great coffee

The CWE continues to up its game. Whole Foods now gives the residents a new grocery store to shop all within convenient walking distance for many residents. It sits at the bottom of The Orion apartment complex, but don't fret if you don't see parking...you can park in the Orion parking garage for free. This location also includes a taqueria station (unique compared to the other STL locations) as well as a coffee bar. They also have what they call "Central Brew", were you can grab a local St Louis brew. It's beautifully decorated on the inside and sure to be a HUGE hit with CWE locals. Welcome to the neighborhood!

The cake lady gave us free huge creme brûlée tart samples!! Thank you! They sell all kindsa cool stuff Whole Foods in other states don't carry, it's bright and spacious, and the hot self-service deli food on the islands near the front door smell sooo tempting.

I can't believe I'm Duchess of a Whole Foods but I guess this means a review is overdue! Speaking of overdue, CWE was way overdue for a grocery store and I was initially skeptical about the long-awaited opening of this Whole Foods. It's a chain I rarely shop at and generally regard as overpriced-hippie-granola. However, once I shopped here I found myself quite enjoying the atmosphere and the setup. Here are the highlights: Solid selection of produce. Recently they seemed to have upped their game in terms of freshness and quality. Only thing is, they are always missing one or two items, which always happens to be something I need (cabbage, shallots, etc.). Great meat section usually with sales on staples like ground beef. They can also cut the meats for you right there and try to accommodate most requests. So many wines. And there's a happy hour which I've gotta try. The bakery is delightful. I always walk by every time I'm here because it's so picturesque and by now I've tried most of the cakes/pastries which are all quite tasty. The hot bar is... meh. They finally started adding more selection (other than chicken tikka masala) but overall it hasn't been the most impressive. Falls far short in comparison to the Brentwood Whole Foods. TL;DR - This Whole Foods is conveniently located and provides a pleasant shopping experience that will meet most needs. It is generally more expensive than competitor chains, but I am willing to overlook it if I'm in a hurry and don't feel like making the trek to Trader Joe's or Schnucks-with-a-security-guard on Lindell.

I went on opening day. It was a mad house! I'm sure they will stay busy but not quite opening day busy. It had all of the items I would expect at Whole Foods and more because the store was quite large. The fresh dining options were far more plentiful than the other two St. Louis stores. There's not a lot to complain about the store itself and they gave out CWE whole foods bags with a purchase on opening day. Cute, right? I do need to complain a little though... There is ample parking there between the street parking and the parking garage but it's a mess getting to it. Every street in the CWE appears to be under construction right now. This area is already a bottleneck and this just congests it even more. I love that there is a Whole Foods within the city of St. Louis for those who prefer to stay within the city limits. I don't love where it's located. I believe some shoppers see the shiny newness of it and think it's a tribute to the city and that it equals progress. I am a former CWE resident and all I was thinking is how will Straub's and The Golden Grocer survive this? Sometimes we need to think less globally and more locally...

I live around the block from this market, so the location is unbeatable. Though it's not the biggest Whole Foods, they do have all the necessities and more, including a hot foods bar, fresh pizzas, sandwiches, baked goods and a deli with fresh meats and seafood options. The cheese selection is extensive. They tend to run out of common veggies over the weekend and are busy on Sunday evenings.

I love this store. I'm so glad they added a store in the city , the Brentwood location is always slammed ! This one is jumping but it's not outrageous. Things I love : The selection of good quality organic and conventional fruits and veggies Vast selection of Paleo and dairy free items Awesome olive bar Wine tastings!! Bulk items are inexpensive Things I don't like : Parking at this location will get you killed if not careful . It's tighter than Aunt Frans girdle in that garage !! Non food items ( paper towels, soap etc) are expensive so you have to go to two stores or pay a pretty price They don't have "popular" brands of many things you find in other stores but their focus is on local brands and small business For those who say Whole Foods is too expensive, that just sounds crazy to me. Why would you go cheap on something you put in the only body you will ever have?

So glad to have a WF in the CWE neighborhood. It's a populous area with Barnes and residential apartments and condos, making it the perfect location for business. I'm never one to be highly selective for organic foods or their associated price tags, but I come here often purely for convenience. For a small store, it has almost everything you need, from fresh produce, bakery, hot and cold bars, health and wellness products to wine and spirits! It's very well stocked and fulfills my needs for even uncommonly used ingredients for special recipes. Staff is ever so friendly and professional. Get your fresh and natural produce here, grab some chocolate croissants for breakfast or a slice of tres leches for desserts, and a small bouquet of flowers on your way out! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

I live really close to this and love how there is a new grocery store so close! It definitely helps the people who live near the area who don't want to just eat out all the time or do not have cars to drive to grocery stores. I have international students as friends and I know they appreciate it. The parking is pretty tight, but I have always been able to find a spot. They have a great selection of self serve food and also a pizza area so you can grab a slice. My favorite is to get the Caprese Sandwich from the sandwich bar on Thursdays before class. Bonus tip! They have deals on some days of the week, there's always $$ off on sandwiches on Thursdays! They have a super cute bakery (fruit tart is my fav). And if you're feeling guilty, lots of yummy slices of cake. For special occasions I also recommend the Tiramisu cake or the death by chocolate. The have a great selection of fresh fruits, juices, and vegetables. They even have specialty food items like Japanese purple potatoes! Great wine selection as well! They also have Amazon lockers for delivery packages which is pretty neat!

I love Whole Foods. But what's up with some of the staff's customer service skills? Today... Jess in the bakery was so kind, and helpful and didn't mind waiting while we decided what to get. She exemplified excellent customer service. However, service like Steven's during check-out is poor enough to keep me from coming back to this Whole Foods. I asked him where an item was, and he said, nonchalantly, ''It's in one of the aisles." I thought to myself: "Thanks jerk-off, I know it's in an aisle, but which one?" Get this man some remediation! If I can be courteous with a smile and say thank you, he can learn to greet, address customer questions sincerely and not act like we are an inconvenience.

it's already painful to look at their horrific prices and walk in looking at that hot bar with all the crusty untouched food... Because he would eat cafeteria type food for 1199 a pound... That's absurd... And know that all that good food is going to go in the garbage because of your stupid prices... Unbelievable. on top of that the cashiers are so rude. Every time I come here it's just mind blowing. Like I come here every so often, because the place sells things that I can't get anywhere else, like certain probiotics, but the cashier is always a jerk every single time without exception, and I can't even. Why can't you hire people that don't hate every single person that shops there? also, I remember back in the ancient days, like the early 2000s, where cashiers would actually explain things to you, so, for example, I am a prime member, and my phone number is not in the system, and instead of politely explaining it to me, and taking time to let me get out my QR code. The guy was just short with me and made me feel rushed. he probably knows not to use certain words, but the tone he took with me... Great God. It's extra painful, because I spent almost all my formative years working in the service industry where I had to smile with my voice, as they say, and be chipper and kind and happy, no matter how bad I felt... You would think that shopping at a luxury store like this people could actually treat you nicely, but no... Every time I come here I remember why I don't come here. between the prices and the horrible staff, and the confusing, Amazon prime discount that I didn't get because the cashier was too much of a jerk to be patient with me... I'd rather shop at the Schnucks in South city, and that place is infamous.
