The vegan cranberry quinoa salad and fresh hot soup are delicious with other options like cut beets, thai peanut rice noodles, etc and the vegan rice crispy square with rainbow sprinkles is flat-out addictive (I had to go back for a second after trying my partner's). The bulk section is full of gems too -- I especially love the grain free vegan granola. Prices can run a little high, but it's worth it for what feels like a home cooked meal and because it supports a co-op. In love with the recent update that opened the store all the way through to the back garden and easy parking -- such a great vibe. Go here, smell the herbs, and check out a crystal shop near by. Perfect day. 040725

I do wish they had more vegan and vegetarian options at their hot bar and prepared foods section.

There are customers line up at the self check-out, yet not a normal check out open. I ask a worker who is chatting with another worker if they are going to open a check-out, she looks at me as if I'm bothering her and says nope then goes back to chatting. Again, WTF? I've got a cart full and already put in my 8 hours for the day. Now they want me to do their job as well. Self checkouts weren't made for that. Originally they were made for the guy who has 2 items and didn't want to wait in the normal checkout. He could get out quickly. Now after 7 they want everyone to use them. Maybe if I got a discount, I would be more willing to self checkout but I'm paying full price. Like I said, I already put in 8 hours at my job, my job is hard physical work. I don't feel like doing their job too. What do you think? Are you ok working for Fry's for free after you worked all day? No other place makes you work when you go there, no restaurant makes you cook your own food, no doctors office make you do your own physical, no bar makes you pour your own beer or make your own drink. What does Fry's think they can make you work for free. I hope someone from corporate reads this and does what's right go back to the way they did it for years and years. Or I'll be driving a little farther to get the customer service that Fry's lacks. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

First things first: this review is not about the employees. They are all awesome and this store is…read moremy go-to Albertsons. This review is for corporate. Albertsons corporate offices clearly have not spent much time in the stores judging by the decisions they make. For example. Today I did some light shopping but big enough to need a cart. When I go to check out there is only one cashier lane open (as usual, even though they need more) and the line was full of several people with large quantities in their cart. So I go to the self check even though it pains me knowing self check just means one more person without employment. Anyway they now have these massive bins holding sale items smack in the middle of the tiny self check square. Total nightmare! If you have a cart you are unable to pass to exit since other people are at a kiosk checking out and there's zero room between them and the sale bins. It is one big traffic jam and the poor employees are forced to move people around while they're trying to check out just to keep the line moving. There was so little space that I am fairly confident this is not ADA compliant. I truly think Albertsons corporate believes that only people with small items and no cart go to self check. If you only employ one cashier however, this is not the case. Especially on a busy weekend. I will never understand forcing your customers to be employees and not paying or even trusting them but that's a whole other topic. Every customer and every employee was frustrated and complaining about these stupid sale bins. It does not take a genius to know this was a bad idea. Remove the bins!

The isles are incredibly narrow, I am of average weight and I maybe had a half a foot on each side in the aisle. The produce didn't seem very fresh, so I skipped over that. I did enjoy some of the weirder, nontraditional grocery store items like squid jerky. However, I am vegan and I struggle to find vegan items within all of the options. If you think snow, parking is very tricky. Unless you live downtown and you plan on walking, be prepared to do a little bit of walking in order to get to the store. The store also had alcohol, and toiletries. What the store is known for is their deli, which I did not partake in. I hear their sandwiches are amazing but I didn't see any vegan options.

They still have the pizza take out bar with a variety of toppings. They have some items or brands you won't find in other places but may not have brands you get elsewhere. It's nice to discover some new things you haven't tried before. The bakery has some tempting things to look at. The store is large with wide enough aisles so you can browse easily. Prices are a little higher than other places but some things may be worth it. The parking is limited only because of all the other businesses in the area. I'll go back and look around again. I can usually find something I want to try.

I have never eaten at Whole Foods, I've only ever shopped there. But they actually have a huge…read moreselection of to-go foods available in their deli section. They also have ready made sushi, which is what I ended up getting. They have a little something for everyone ranging from your typical American food like pizza, pasta, chicken fingers and salads to Mexican, Indian and Asian food. The sushi I got was really tasty. The spring rolls I got were okay but the dipping sauce is not what I expected which was a tangy sauce. Usually for spring rolls it's a peanut sauce. For sushi they have low sodium soy sauce available which is a plus. There is very limited seating at the store to sit down and eat so most likely you'll have to bring your food home. All in all, it's not bad. Fairly cheap, and a decent selection!

TJ used to march to a different drummer. House brands with quality for household staples, often with an international flavor and source. There is still a wide variety of decent international staples, but it's highly focused on cult products and flavorings. Prepackaged and ultra-processed foods are becoming standard(s). Protein is down, carbs are up. There's still a reasonable variety of veggies, fresh, but not in wide abundance. Certain common items, like walnuts, go missing for long periods of time, and other items become seasonable and their shelf space is unreliable.
