Erewhon is a novelty in itself. Walked over with some friends after eating lunch just to check it out and grab a smoothie. The location on Lake is easy to find and pretty spacious, but parking may be limited. I was expecting HIGHLy overpriced stuff, but the prices were comparable to others grocery store with expensive organic things, and everything is VERY nicely, neatly displayed and clean. For example, it's winter right now and I saw a 16 oz pack of strawberries for $7 or $8. Is that expensive? Yes. Did I also see similar pricing at Ralphs that very same weekend on their organic strawberries of the same size? Also yes. There were definitely some things that were way more overpriced (a doz vital farms eggs for over $10), but it wasn't as INSANE as I was expecting. We got hailey bieber smoothies and while it was delicious with all the collagen-y ingredients, I probably wouldn't get it again for myself. It's a bit too indulgent and I'd rather spend my money elsewhere. But it was fun to try, and reminded me I should get ingredients to make myself some strawberry smoothies at home... read more

Erewhon - Hailey Bieber smoothies - Grocery Near Me - Pasadena, California

Okaaay erewhonn i get the hype sorta. Honestly thought it'd be super expensive, but its similar to whole foods just depends on what items you seek cuz you know inflation be hitting anyways. Did not try the smoothie. The lines are kind of long but if u buy pizza you can buy it at the register there. The hot food line moves fast and they seem to have many beautifully displayed vegetarian options, but it appears the replenishment takes some time. I probably would go here for specialty items like plant based milk for matcha or coconut cult rather than produce ( as pretty and clean as it looks). Hot plate- had set plates for $20 vegan/vegetarian (arguably where erewhon would shine as its all organic) which is much pricier than whole foods, but you can also gaslight yourself into believing its more reasonable than a meal out these days. Brussels sprouts- love the roast, but salty; not really maple sweet Buffalo cauliflower- okay I get the hype. Its tender, not mushy but great flavor and coating on each bite Broccoli- again cooked well Only thing is the veg are kind of salty Pizza- i feel like this is a pretty good deal esp as it can be harder to find neopolitan style crusted pizza and the pieces are biiig. The margherita was quite parmseany and didn't taste greasy or fell off in a gloppy cheese chunk at all. The crust is thin and airy. Not like gourmet, but probably one of the better deals u can get. Also tried their pumpkin cheesecakes ( wow samples worth $4!!? ) and it was decadent. Parking and location wise I'd say this is more accessible as they have their own garage, but interior wise does feel a bit tiny/jam packed of stuff. Lots of people outside in the fireplace patio area. read more

When I think of Erewhon, I automatically assume everything is overpriced. So I wanted to visit and see for myself. Sometimes you'll find items that cost you way more than it should, but other times, you'll find items that are reasonably priced and comparable to items at other markets. They have a smoothie bar, hot food section and cold prepared foods like sandwiches, salads and sushi ready to eat. These items in particular are quite pricy with everything averaging upwards of $20 per item! The market looks nice, and it was pretty neat to finally visit an Erewhon. P.S. Their cold pressed juices are pretty good! read more

Having become a frequent recent purchaser at this store I am sad to have had a negative experience so shortly after becoming a customer at this establishment. I made a almost $200 purchase at the cafe and tonic bar today. On my way out the store I was stopped by security and asked to see my receipt. I did not get a copy of the receipt and so security had me wait at the door while they went to talk to the cashier that attended me. Although I can understand security protocol at establishments I couldn't help but feel like I was being racially profiled. It isn't a custom at erewhon for receipts to be checked and as one of the few racial minority customers in the store I couldn't help but feel like my partner and I were targeted. Even if there was a serious inquiry as to if we were stealing anything I would have appreciated an apology from security after having stopped us for an error on their end. Overall I'm very disappointed in this establishment as it the one of the only places in California that has made me feel like a victim to racially profiling. read more

Came into the Tonic Bar on a Tuesday morning and it was not busy. I got the Hailey Bieber Strawberry Glaze Smoothie and it was delicious! This was my first time ordering at the Tonic Bar and I was very pleased. The employees were very nice and greet you. Multiple outside seating is available and is clean and checked often. It was a little chilly out but the outside seating has heaters and one of them has a center fire pit! Very relaxing to sit out and enjoy your food/drink or even do some work on your computer. Would come again! read more

This review is going to mainly be about the smoothies and food. First off the store is well stocked. They have quite a wide variety of organic and vegan options. Which is great. I was more interested in the prepared foods they had and the drinks at their cafe. We ordered I think this huge German pancake, a frittata, and an avocado and egg quesadilla. Sorry forgot to take pictures of the foods. We also got 2 smoothies. The Hailey Bieber strawberry glaze skin smoothie and the vanilla matcha smoothie (swapped the oat milk for hemp). The food and drinks were delicious. Price is a bit steep for the smoothies but if you account for what's in it then you'll know why. Some may disagree. I will absolutely come back and try out the other items they have. There is also out door seatings. read more

Erewhon - Vanilla Matcha smoothie (swapped the oat milk for hemp) and Hailey Bieber strawberry glaze skin smoothie - Grocery Near Me - Pasadena, California

Erewhon in Pasadena is less of a grocery store and more of a hipster wonderland disguised as one. The store itself is absolutely beautiful, with perfectly arranged produce, sleek design, and shelves full of items that make you wonder if you've been shopping wrong your whole life. Yes, the prices are wild. Yes, I still give it five stars. Not for practical grocery shopping, but for the experience. It is perfect for people watching, spotting smoothies that cost more than dinner, and discovering products you never knew existed. I might not do my weekly shopping here, but I will absolutely keep coming back just for the vibe. read more

Erewhon - Grocery Near Me - Pasadena, California

I really like this store--it's super clean and well-organized, and honestly, just walking in makes you feel bougie! They carry tons of healthy options, but let's be real, the prices here are pretty wild. I especially enjoy their drink area, which is stocked with a wide variety of sparkling waters, kombuchas, and energy drinks. Their café food is great too, but it definitely comes at a price. I've grabbed lunch here a few times, and let's just say a coffee, an açaí bowl, and a lunch plate costs more than my last grocery haul. Still, I find myself coming back more than I probably should... :3 read more

So I finally got to check out Erewhon in Pasadena while I was out here for some lunch! Parking next to this place was terrible first of all. When I walked in, everything seemed pretty clean and organized. Items in the store were over-priced but the presentation of them were good. The food court area inside looked fresh as well. Overall, just an ok experience. read more

It's a bit crazy to be spending around $20 for a drink, but when visiting the area one has to spot and indulge in buying this drink, especially when you don't have one it in your own area. Very trendy place, but I will admit that the Hailey Bieber drink tastes amazing. I'm sure many can probably make in their own home, but for people like me who like to experience these little outings, it was worth it for me. They're ready to order meals look pretty good and the presentation is well done, so I'll try that next time. My son said that the D'Angelo drink was just ok. Do I recommend it? Yes, for people who don't mind spending more than the normal and if they want to experience it. Their staff is friendly and helpful in your questions when you don't know what drink to order. I personally enjoyed my visit. read more

There are many options for fresh and hot foods here but it is on the pricier side. It is a large and clean store. I didn't try any of their food but the hailey bieber smoothie is nothing special. The smoothie was made pretty quickly. It tasted like a regular strawberry banana smoothie but is not worth $19. read more

JOSH was the first person I was greeted by and I am always feeling so welcomed when I come in thanks to him, he is very professional and friendly, I am not sure if he is security but he definitely is doing a great job. Melanie- It's obvious based on my experience why she is the store manager, she helped me save time and find exactly what I was looking for, she really made my search for Pecanmilk and Ezekiel cereal super simple, she was extremely professional and on point with checking for customer satisfaction. There was an african american lady I don't know her name in the tester section of the oils, my gosh I dont even have words for her, she was extremely helpful, and made me feel comfortable to test product, I wish I got her name but she was by the test oils, she was awesome and very helpful. Justina was checking something on the shelf and stopped to make sure I was ok, I needed help with tartar sauce and hse made it a super simple process but went above and beyond going to the back herself and getting it for me. The ambiance was great it is so clean in there, keep up the great work. read more

Finally trying the hype of Hailey Beiber smoothie. I would say it's not cheap. It's $20 for a cup of strawberry smoothie. The smoothie tastes creamy and sweet. The place gets crowded over the weekend. read more

Erewhon - Hailey Beiber smoothies - Grocery Near Me - Pasadena, California

Ok yeah, it's expensive. I wouldn't do my grocery shopping here but the food bar is alright. The highlight for me is the chicken pot pie! It's legitimately one of the best pot pies I've ever had, and of course all the ingredients are organic. For $16, it's not bad. Very filling, perfect lunch or dinner. If you're going to get a combo, just be careful what you load in that box bc it will cost you! I usually the salmon, kale & bean salad, and cauliflower. Overall, I'm glad to have this healthy-lunch option for when I want to splurge and treat myself. Free one our parking in the back parking structure. read more

Erewhon - Grocery Near Me - Pasadena, California

There's free parking in a parking structure off Lake Ave that is shared with other businesses and it can get crowded but parking isn't too hard to find. After walking out of the parking lot there is outdoor seating for people eating at Erewhon and then the entrance where you see cashiers in a different formation than typical grocery stores. It's more of an open concept if you will in a square. They are organized by produce on the left and pantry items to the left. Freezer and fridge items like the walls to the left as well. Prices seem to be around 30 percent higher for the same products you can buy elsewhere but they have some niche healthier products as well. The brand is so well built up that their generic Erewhon products actually are a hefty price as well versus being cheaper. It's such a cool thing? I wanted to try to see the hype and ate a meal at Erewhon. Why did it seem like every time I went people are eating and waiting for food. Their food section is busy! I got a veggie meal which consists of choosing any 3 veggie items or salads for 20 dollars a pound. Meat meals have higher price points and you pick that meat and 2 sides. I also tried a slice of pizza which was around 8 dollars. They had pizza samples which was nice. I think the food is a hit or miss. My pizza slice was a mushroom pizza that tasted pretty average to me. Not like a greasy pizza chain, but it tasted like an artisan pizza slice that was decent. It wasn't mind blowing. However the cheese pizza samples though were better...maybe I should get a cheese slice next time. The tomato sauce was yum. My meal had buffalo cauliflower which was something I'd get again. It was crispy, had good buffalo flavor. The size of the florets were good. I also got a kelp noodle salad which was also delicious. Kelp noodles aren't readily found to buy other places so these two times I can't easily make at home and they tasted pretty good. My last time was rice meatballs with some tangy sauce over it. That was a let down. If you like a strong herb flavor of thyme or oregano then maybe you'll like it. The texture inside the fried ball was pretty much chewy rice. The person who made my plate made it so it was pretty much 1 lb but my friend's helped loaded her plate and stuffed the box. She didn't realize it was the price per lb so her meal was almost 30 dollars. Also some other sides seem pretty standard sides I probably wouldn't want to pay that price for... I even surprised myself but I would honestly come back for a meal. Especially given that some burgers these days cost 15 dollars before even getting a side, my 20 dollar meal was filling and more palpable with that comparison. I'd just be careful to choose more unique items. read more

Tough to see anything negative about Erewhon. I read many reviews and some complain about pricing? They should recognize that Erewhon is a speciality grocery store offering smaller brands, healthier options and service. Erewhon should take it slow, and expand carefully. The prices here are as expected. The service is always good, and the team at each location is friendly and welcoming. read more

One of my favourite grocery stores ... if there was only one I would shop here all the time. It's really aesthetically pleasing and so beautiful when you walk in the door. They have amazing options of produce, dairy, meats and lots of specialty items that you can only find at Erewhon. I love their juice / smoothie section .. they are pricey... but so good each smoothie is amazing and loaded with great ingredients. And their hot food section is out of this world, great section of organic ingredients and locally sourced. And their service is always nice and friendly. The staff is helpful and very knowledgable. Can't wait for you to come to Bay Area! read more

I was visiting SoCal and took a walk in the neighborhood. When I saw Erewhon, I had to stop out of curiousity. It's pricey but pretty. I was visiting around 7:30 am, so it wasn't crowded and it's nice to have store to myself. If you notice the plaque in front, this was a former I Magnin store (old school). I have visited the one in Studio City which appears to have a larger footprint than the one in Pasadena. Instead of getting a smoothie (which they are known for), I ended up getting a pricey grab and go juice. I will admit that tasted much better and probably better for me. Courteous staff at checkout, that was fairly easy and not a wait first thing in the morning. I admit that sometimes it's good to price compare the supplement section. I missed out on my favorite Omega 3's at the the other location and it was no longer available in Pasadena. You have to do your homework on deals before going out and making an impulse buy. On this visit, I didn't see any decent deals or anything that screamed "buy me" except for my juice in a pretty glass bottle. read more

I wish 0 star !! Horrible Jewish market. Craving kebab and taboli salad mediterrian foods so I went there last night which is Friday night so many people for the dinner grab but 1st time there at Pasadena location after charging my Tesla & spent $190 :But look at the photos : molds on corn bread and golden beets r didn't cook properly using bad black marks on beets & $33 meal kit has been so spicy with red pepper which ( I can't eat spicy foods ) they said it is not spicy at all - lying I am Japanese & Korean so not cook but ?? who is using for Miso salmon belly with red pepper ?? Jalapeño?? It is killing miso taste so nobody do that ( used to have 5 sushi restaurants) with total crazy horrible weird spicy& smell of tofu edamame?? Only good was breads : country bread & bagel & baguette. Don't know this location is very bad food selling ?! or they changed their systems?? I used to go Beverly Hills at LA ( orthodox jews r customer ) because used to live hollywood!! So bazaar to me and shocked - pasadena whole food is terrible too but this is more bad with over expensive prices $ read more

Much smaller compared to some of the others, don't really shop here but once in a while they have good deals, I know is hard to believe. Found my probiotics on sale here today for at much lower price than Sprouts, so that was a win. Limited parking on the streets paid a dollar for one hour - they have time limits on Saturdays, that sucked, but a dollar is not bad, I did see covered parking near by as well tho, unsure if there's a fee. Forgot to mention there is a nice patio where you can sit and eat or sip on a drink especially if it's nice weather outside. Anyhow, prolly won't frequent this location, even it's the closest to my house. read more

Back in the day we used to joke and call Whole Foods, "Whole Paycheck." Erewhon is a Mortgage Payment in comparison. OMG!I walked in and experienced sticker shock. A small slice of cake $14. A few other items that I looked at were $14. It's like $14 is the base price and it goes up from there. This store is small in comparison to the one in Beverly Hills. It occupies a section of the former I. Magnin & Co building, which was designed by architect H.C. Chambers. The layout is nice, and everything is well organized, which makes it easy to navigate. They also have an outdoor seating area so you can sit and enjoy your pre-made food or beverage. This high-end organic market has its loyal customers. However, I'm not going to waste $19 on a Hailey Bieber smoothie or $39 on Sea Moss Gel. Parking structure in the back off Hudson. read more

I cant even blame DoorDash for erewhon selling bad products, i normally love their cookies and always get one but every blue moon they sell this thick nasty one that they should really throw away instead of packaging it and selling to customers especially when we already pay so much for the products! 7$ for a cookie that is not edible is ridiculous! Erewhon dont sell cookies that look like this!!! read more

I'm sorry but a cup of berries for $10?! This place is definitely overhyped and overpriced.

Super crowded. One and done. read more

The infamous and always trendy Erewhon strikes Pasadena, and it appears the duo is a match made in heaven! If your lifestyle is truly aligned with "clean", organic, boutique grocery experiences, this store delivers. The curated feel suggests mostly higher-end, specialty products, but with a modern and chic vibe. The hot food menu, including the rice balls, buffalo cauliflower, and miso salmon combination is killer, but don't skip the fantastic pizza selection they have! Although not for the faint hearted (or walleted), would highly recommend if looking for the next level in high-end grocery shopping! read more

... my family and I really came here for the Hailey Beieber smoothie and that was all we got. 4 stars for the smoothie - I'm not sure if the collagen was working overtime or not, it tasted like a standard banana strawberry smoothie, but it was good and my cousin paid so it was a win in my book. I'm not too sure about parking as my family and I parked a bit further down and had to walk over to Erewhon. They have a nice outdoor space for people to chill and eat their food at so that was welcomed especially on a warm day. read more

I walked into Erewhon out of sheer curiosity, and honestly, I think I was part of a social experiment I didn't sign up for. The moment I stepped in, I was surrounded by a sea of Lululemon-clad influencers, sipping $25 smoothies like it was their life source. I browsed for a few minutes, picked up a small container of pre-cut fruit, saw the price, and immediately put it down like it burned me. I didn't buy anything. Not out of self-control, but out of sheer survival instinct. My bank account started vibrating in distress the second I made eye contact with a $30 bottle of alkaline, biodynamic, ethically blessed water. The employees looked unbothered, the customers looked suspiciously too happy, and the air smelled faintly of oat milk privilege. If you ever want to feel like a peasant in a dystopian health-food utopia, this is the place for you. Otherwise, save yourself the existential crisis and go literally anywhere else. read more

Parking lot gets full quick! I managed to slip in one got pretty lucky, some people were circling you could tell, there is more space just down the street, pasadena has the space which is nice. I have to say this is probably the nicest erewhon compared to the Grove, Silverlake, maybe because its newer? The layout is similar but I'm sure its the people who made is more pleasurable. You don't feel rushed or anything. We are usually pretty quick about it, try a few things and we're in and out of the hot bar quick. The seating is very nice especially on a nice sunday. People are in the front enjoying the sun and delicious healthy food! Got the burrito this time steak/egg very good and the Vegan meat ... ok at least its healthy. wish they had more of a kick in their salsa but I understand who's it for. of course I had to try a cookie, not sure if its exactly healthy but it was super good and had hella crunch! Been going to erewhon for a while and yet I haven't tried the smoothie yet, but they were definitely flowing, the pink large cups were everywhere to be seen. one day I'll have to indulge! read more

Their fruit and vegetable were disappointing- the mangos looked unfortunate. I had to move their dolly and cart out of my way. It was just left there with someone's drink. Tacky!

Erewhon is a specialty and wellness grocery store full of tons of healthy items, from fresh organic produce, to other foods pre prepared, juices, and wellness items. There is also an MRI scan business in the basement of this location! I checked this location out earlier in the month when they had a wellness fair going on. The vendors were all super interesting. The location is nice, there is an outdoor area where you can eat as well. The prices are high, this wouldn't be a place I would recommend getting regular groceries from to save money. But for specialty needs, such as certain dietary needs, guaranteed organic/fresh foods, and some great wellness finds that make life a lot easier and efficient, this is a great store to find just what you may have been looking for. read more

I like Erewhon. I know some of the prices are crazy, but there's some items I can find here that the price point is great PLUS I can still be on my zero waste vegan journey.

Everyone keeps talking about their smoothies, which is understandable because it's good, but their pizzas here are underrated. Not only is it one of the more wallet-friendly items, it's super delicious. We love coming here to grab a few slices of pizza for lunch and a combo plate from their hot food bar. Some of our favorites are the Mushroom Pizza, Pesto Carrots, and Eggplant Lasagna. The ingredients used are really clean and you do not feel lazy and tired after eating.

I have stopped in the first time into Erewhon in Pasadena. They had taken over the old Borders space not too long ago and it's a welcome addition to this long empty space. They did a great job converting into a functional store. Everything is laid out well and I had come here primarily to get some food and drinks. There are lots of online ordering options so not waiting in line for a while. And there's also a lot of delivery service apps where you can order items here as well . The team member here are all really nice and hospitable The parking was actually not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be a parking on the first floor. In the past, even before Erewhon was open it was always kind of dicey to find a good spot on the first floor. There is a one hour limit these spots so maybe that is what gets these parking spots available. There's an outdoor dining area right side of the main doors were a lot of people are enjoying their time and enjoying their food and drinks. Looks like a lot of great selections here at this market and it's a welcome addition to the Pasadena area. read more

I had to come see for myself the outrageous prices that Erewhon offers. This upscale supermarket is basically a flex that you can shop where the celebrities shop too. I came here to try their infamous smoothies that they have collabs with celebrities and influencers. Even though their most famous smoothie is Hailey Bieber's Strawberry smoothie, I opted for Kendall Jenner's Peaches and Cream ($23). This item is limited, so it isn't on the menu. Quite frankly, the drink tastes exactly like what it sounds like. It was a tad on the sweeter side for me. Honestly, nothing special at all. With that price tag, I won't be back. read more
