It's a small place mainly full of vitamins and supplements. Some drinks and snacks.

It's a bit pricey too but it's near the highway if you're in that direction.

Stopped by for a smoothie. Two employees, one on the phone the other helping a customer. I asked…read morethe one on the phone if the juice bar was open ( so I know she knew I was waiting ) she nodded yes. I don't mind waiting my turn. But I'd like to have my turn. I waited about 5 min and in that time another customer walked in. Instead of coming back to the juice bar the employee on the phone hangs up and helped the customer who had just walked in. WTH!! I thought about continuing to wait but it really bugged me that I was passed over. As I was walking out I heard a " ma'am I'll be right with you." Yeah, right. Unless someone else walks in. Not the first time I've been to this store. They are usually very short almost rude and not at all friendly. I will not be returning almost rude and then passing me over is enough for me.

Such a great store. I was so happy when Whole Foods came to Schererville a few years ago. The…read moreworkers are helpful & happy. The organic produce is amazing. Even if it's a little pricy, there are always deals with the Amazon Prime. My favorite thing to get here is the delicious cheese. So many unique & quality options. You can also get a taste if you aren't sure what to get. Amazing pairings of nuts, and fancy crackers. The best place is the Olive bar. I love all of the options. The spicy variations, the Greek olives, so many choices. Great vegetarian food in the frozen section. Salad bar for fresh food & house made food. Sushi, pizza, bakery items. I like to eat in the cute little dinning area or outside if weather permits. I almost forgot about the awesome smoothie bar when you walk in too. Not your average grocery store.

I am rating the HOT & COLD Food Bar - as the grocery store as a whole we know is expensive…read more I used to enjoy the food bar prior to covid when it was FULL and had more options that were fresh and available. Now it's mostly stuff that sits out awhile, looks dry, and there hasn't been many options to choose from. The salad bar is also half the size it used to be, but I went and was hungry and thought - I could grab fast food OR something healthier here. SO I chose this. The meatloaf appears often and it's pretty decent - but the star of the show on this HOT bar is always the VEGGIES - all different and always prepared differently. The salad bar is still a decent option - now none of this is CHEAP, but it's fresh. I do like how you can take your food outside on the tables in the sun to eat when it's a nice day. There used to be counter stools and options inside, but those are now gone. The employees are the register are super friendly and helpful. However, I don't think the employees working in the bakery/food area are very personable. They come and fill something up, but do it sloppy and don't engage with the customer.

First time! Alyssa was super informative, very personable and cheerful, without being pushy!! Not…read moreeveryone can do that first thing in the morning. Great first impression I tried the 3 step process: 1. shot of aloe(flavored) for hair, skin, acne, digestion. I have never had a liking for aloe. It always was pulpy and left an after taste. This was just like drink a refreshing class of mango infused water. I would drink a bottle of it easily. 2. 1 cup of tea(hot or cold): boost metabolism, mental clarity and several other things (check out the website) and no crash - I had warm chai. I love chai tea, but I usually drink it with milk because I have found chai with water to just not do it for me. This chai, however, was not too peppery, absolutely palatable witbout the creaminess of milk and very flavorful. 3. Shake(meal replacement) lots of vitamins and minerals, 17 grams of protein and 3-5 grams of fiber: Their are an abundance of shake flavors. I decided on the Stawberry Cheesecake. They have fruit, chocolate or white chocolate flavors. I am not a chocolate fan in general, but I may be tempted to try a few, as the names have peaked my interest. Ie. Heath Bar, Sweet Heart, S'Mores, Banana Carmel, etc. I know....it doesn't sound healthy. Right? The taste is so much tomy liking that I will totally do it again. As a meal replacement, I should feel "full" and nourished for at least 4-5 hours. They advise having a drink once a day for 3 days to jump start as a way of getting your body on track with all the benefits. Their hours are 6a-6p M-F. I don't remember the weekend hours. I wish they were open earlier because I will almost be to Hyde Park before they open They do have their products onsite to ourchase and make at home, this may turn out to be a better and cheaper ootion over the long term. I am going to try this out for a bit and see how it pans out. Thank you for a pleasant and healthy experience to start my day.
