My husband and I have been shopping at Nature's Emporium in Newmarket for almost 10 years. We…read morereally couldn't say enough about what an incredible place Nature's is. It's the place to shop for everything organic. And every department has amazing people working to help you find and buy what you're looking for - there's the amazing John and his team in the produce department who make sure all the gorgeous organic vegetables and fruits are at their very best; there's fabulous Anna, Jan, Jordan, Dayle, Mark, Yulia, and Michael at the deli counter, all professional, friendly, and ready to help you take home some of the many fresh deli meats and vegan options, and delights and treats of all kinds. You can even get a hot and fresh spelt or gluten-free pizza made by the incredible Barbara or Ricky. And in the kitchen, wonderful Peter and Scott and a crew of amazing chefs and cooks create incredible dishes and soups to enjoy in-store or to take home. In the grocery section, the fantastic Jeremy and Elaine and a team of other hardworking colleagues keep stock on the shelves and keep everything organized and accessible--Nature's even has a large and varied selection of organic nuts and dried fruits. And over in the incredible supplement section, the very knowledgeable Bev, Linda, and Olivia, to name a few, are our constant go-tos for information on vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and for the wide range of other products available. And Karen and her team do a fabulous job of looking after all the health and beauty products in the store. And when you've filled up your cart and are ready to check-out, you have a team, including the incredibly efficient Pinar, Swapma, and Jacob, to ring all your groceries up and check you out. We like to end our shopping experience with a lovely coffee or smoothie at the juice bar. Nature's Emporium is an experience--an amazing experience, and one that we highly recommend. If you go for the first time, you will not believe your eyes. And you'll want to keep coming back. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

I have been looking for a place in Barrie to have a quick meal. I am limited by some food issues,…read moreand sometimes time is at a premium. "Goodness Me" is a health food store with extras available, including fresh baked goods, and a service counter and salad bar. They provide several fresh dishes on a salad bar, and a counter where they have about 10-12 hot dishes that you can choose from. The food is fast, and the staff is helpful and friendly. The pricing is good. My experience has been that it is best to go earlier in the day when the food is fresh. Like any other buffet type "restaurant" the food tends to get pretty thick if it has been sitting around for a while. There are lots of good options for people looking for gluten free options, but the potential for cross contamination is there if you are very sensitive.l to gluten. They also had 3 fresh soups available and regularly have chilli. The pricing is much better to offerings such as Nature's emporium. I found the price to be at least 25% less. They also have a pretty hefty discount at the end of the day on food if you are so inclined. I did it once, the price was fantastic, but the butter fish was like glue. ;) Overall, a good place to have a healthy and quick easy bite.

I buy between the 2 when one place is out of stock or carries a certain brand that the other doesn't have. If you're health/environmentally/ethically conscious, this is an excellent place.

For example if you're a vegetarian/vegan and looking for vitamins/supplements, take a look online at the brands that they carry to make sure they suit your needs.

I usually shop at natures emporium for organic items, however the prices are higher compared to Ambrosia.
