Absolutely love their Deli Sandwiches and Sushi selections. Always freshly made and with fresh ingredients. Wednesdays are always a great day with their Sushi Specials. And ordering up a delicious Sandwich combination is always easy. Special shout out to Dee behind the counter. Always helpful, and always with an honest smile. They have also increased their selection of Grab-n-Go food items. This makes having a delicious lunch or dinner all the more special. And as we all strive to eat healthier these days, they have a nice selection of Organic, Keto, Gluten Free, Plant Based, Non GMO, and Paleo items. They also always have a wide selection of Sprouts Brand items, supplements, bath and body products, and kitchen items. Pretty much anything you could possibly need . . . and want. Also love their hours. 7 am to 10 pm, very convenient for early risers and/or last minute shopping after work.

Healthy, crisp, clean, & more than fairly priced for such a treat, no, not a treat, a tremendously beneficial meal of nutrients and flavor I'd never get at any supermarket and sadly, some Farmer's markets (sometimes)! Happy I stopped by and will return regularly from now on; it's like stepping back to the 50's when all veggies tasted this good!!!!

Also, they get a lot of their stuff where it's just about ready to expire or has expired in some cases For like perishable items. The people there are super friendly and it is changed over the years to a cleaner presentation now with the emphasis more on alcohol it appears, but it is very convenient like I mentioned when you don't want to drive to one of the big grocery store chains that's much further and simply get something really quick. You are going to pay a little more premium for it since you're shopping at this place where they do gotta make a little bit of a profit since they're not a huge change store. As an example if you were to go by a box of cereal there where you can get it probably at a grocery chain store for two or three dollars you're gonna pay probably four or five dollars but again very convenient to have it literally in your backyard pretty much.

Go when they open, grab the bacon, order the Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie, sit outside, and lean into the absurdly California lineup of flavors and ingredients. Everything feels polished, fresh, and a little excessive in a way that somehow works. It's the kind of place that knows exactly what it is and commits fully Parking? Lot. Easy if you go early My top items: Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie (5/5): Almond milk, strawberries, banana, avocado, dates, maple syrup, collagen peptides, sea moss gel, and coconut cream sounds like something a wellness influencer invented during a spiritual awakening, but somehow it absolutely works. Yeah, twenty dollars for a smoothie is borderline criminal, but this thing tasted incredible. Creamy, rich, naturally sweet, and weirdly luxurious without feeling heavy Beeler's Hickory Smoked Bacon (5/5): Wow. Easily some of the best bacon I've had in a long time. Perfect balance of smoke, salt, sweetness, and fat with edges that crisped up just enough without drying out the center. You could actually taste the quality of the pork instead of just generic salt and smoke. Simple, dialed in, ridiculously satisfying

We went during lunch time so I'm aware that was part of the parking lot fullness, but the staff had this almost apathetic attitude. I saw a piece of pizza I hadn't seen and wanted to try. A couple employees were having a convo at the counter. I just waited to see how long they were going to stand there. Longer than you'd expect. I mentioned Milo earlier. Rockstar in the cafe, gave us samples, answered questions about things I didn't see. I was told to try the battered portobellos. I guess they didn't have them that day but I appreciated that Milo checked. That was the most pleasant experience and Milo's customer service was aligned with what I've come to expect. Checkout was lacklustre. This is the first store I've been at that had a conveyor belt. I went through twice. The first person seemed like he didn't want to be there. The second I asked about the new membership tiers and she wasn't sure then she was surprised at my level. I got clarification around the program from someone at my store, and she showed me where vip line is. It just wasn't a vibe I've been used to over any of the stores I've been to. Maybe it's calabasas, idk. I can say I went. 8 down, 3 to go. Ya, Erewhon is probably my personality atp. Ah well, there's worse things!

Many times, the items I purchase at Gather are less expensive than at Vons. - I really like that they have a loyalty program. Sometimes, they will email you a coupon and you can also accumulate points. They always offer a box at checkout which is environmentally friendly and plastic free. - I think the produce area does a great job of avoiding access packaging. They offer compostable bags which is great for the environment. I would love to see more of the prepackaged items on the shelves in non-plastic containers. I recently purchased a plant-based eggnog. Since it was the only one offered, I had to buy the brand in plastic jugs and would prefer paper/cardboard (like the hemp mylk).

You get a beautiful, clean, very well organized store with fresh and local( love that) organic produce and products. A really nice variety of healthy snacks, protein bars and juices.
