This store genuinely lives the values of people, planet, profit. I love the bulk section for herbs, grains, legumes, and that all produce is organic. They have a beautiful array of teas, toiletries and cosmetics as well as enticing and healthy snacks. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have their own recycling area for everything you can imagine, and a little free library! Thank you MOMs for giving me an alternative to the corporate health food groceries like Whole Foods and Walmart, who don't walk the talk in caring for employees welfare. read more

I like Mom's. However they need to get rid of Driscoll berries. They are fake organic. Read recent reports and you would not eat them read more

I really like this location, and the food is great too. It's good for local produce as well. The service was great, and if you need more help with items you can't find, someone is there to assist you. The ambiance is very nice for a grocery store, and I love how clean and fully stocked it is. It makes me happy to be able to find what I need and check out quickly because the store is never too crowded. read more

I have been a customer of this MOM's location for years. Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend it. On June 6, 2026, I was scratched by a sharp metal corner at a checkout counter while loading groceries onto the conveyor belt. The scratch broke the skin and bled. What made the incident particularly concerning is that this was the second time I had been injured by the same checkout counter. After the first incident several months earlier, I brought the hazard to the attention of store staff. Following the June 6 incident, I sent a detailed email to the customer service address published on the MOM's website. I received no acknowledgment or response. On June 12, I forwarded the same email to Scott Nash, the company's owner and CEO, using the email address published on the MOM's website. Again, I received no acknowledgment or response. On June 16, after ten days without any response from the company, I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. As of June 19, I still have not received any communication from MOM's. What disappoints me most is not the scratch itself. Maintenance issues and mistakes can happen in any business. What is disappointing is that a longtime customer reported a repeat safety hazard through multiple channels and received no response whatsoever. I would have been satisfied with a simple acknowledgment, confirmation that the issue had been investigated, and an explanation of what corrective action had been taken. Instead, I was met with complete silence. Based on this experience, I will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

I've really never reviewed MOM's, after all these years of being a semi-regular customer? It's like Whole Foods and Fresh Market had a baby... one that is more spacious, a bit pricier, but even more focused on organic and exclusive ingredients. Don't go here if you are a huge meat eater. Do stop in for a great selection of teas, produce (though $$$!), odds and ends, and beverages of all kinds. MOM's is known to be the only local shop I can count on to carry Southern Tier Pumking in the fall, for example. MOM's also has a great selection of kombucha and other fermented and interesting n/a drinks! You can park in the parking garage on level three; just be sure to validate your ticket inside. It didn't used to be required and now it is. The cashier's at MOM's are always friendly and efficient, though they tend to only have one lane open at a time. Best part of all for parents of littles -- aisles are BIG and it's a wonderful place to take a toddler or two if they just need to get out of the house and you want to have a nice little shopping experience. I have so many memories that involve MOM's as a destination so that I can buy fancy gnocchi with the true reason being that my kids have stuff to look at, the other customers are sparse, and there is room for littles to roam, or for the cart to spin around to keep them occupied. If you know you know. read more

I have been a regular at Mom's for several years now. Fantastic produce, helpful and friendly staff, and an overall relaxing shopping experience. read more

I love Mom's Organic. Their produce, meats, and breads always seem so fresh. They are probably the only place in the area that I can go to and easily buy dried herbs and loose tea. Their store is always organized and clean. And the staff is super friendly and helpful. It makes shopping such a relaxing and chill experience. They also have a salad section where you can buy salad or bowls. They have a wine section, parking, and they offer free tea/coffee. You can also fill up a jug for alkaline or filtered water. I'm always excited to shop here. read more

Freshest vegetables around. Rarely ever have to worry about turned leafy greens. They're virtually always in the best condition of all stores I shop. read more

The customer service here rocks!! Everyone is so attentive, helpful and knowledgeable - it's like they live and breathe Mom's mission, which doesn't happen often in a grocery store chain. Their product is always stocked, and organized. I never leave without anything I needed. 5 stars for Mom's on NY Ave! read more

This is the best grocery store in DC, by a long stretch. They have the widest and highest-quality selection of produce - way, way better quality than Whole Foods. They also have a huge selection of gluten free breads, snacks, and more. A vegetarian family member also noted that it's the best selection of meat alternatives they've ever seen in a grocery store. Meat-eaters shouldn't shy away though: they actually have a better selection of meat than other stores, with bison, elk, wild boar and more on top of the traditional staples like chicken, pork, ground turkey, beef, etc. Most of all, I appreciate all the conscientious choices Mom's makes. High-quality compostable bags for your produce, an area by the entrance to recycle old clothes and other household goods, and more. People are nice and they validate parking. read more

I normally only frequent this MOM's after my workouts at a local gym, for their Naked Lunch. I give the service at the Naked Lunch 3.5 stars. It's typically pretty slow, so expect to spend at least 15-20 mins waiting in line to be helped during lunch time . I usually get the Kale Caesar salad that is super yummy! The salad has quinoa, carrots and cheese but I get the roasted garlic dressing and minus the artichoke heart and it is very tasty! I actually have eaten this salad over 2 days! It's very filling and feels pretty healthy :) I have also ordered the black bean burger, that comes with cheddar cheese and an avocado spread on a very thin multigrain bun. This is my absolute FAVE and is soooo delicious when I feel like I need extra carbs in my belly!! Lately, I've created my own salad or steam bowl. The staff is very friendly and does their best to get you to your delicious creation as quickly as possible. I also love their Green Tea Glory fresh pressed juice! Yummy and healthy! read more

Might objectively be one of the best grocery stores I've been to the in the area, only amplified by this pandemic honestly. I mean, it's in the name - Organic. The selection and volume may not be as big as your typical chain stores, but the quality is there. Lemons were juicier, with pretty great selection of cheeses as well. They had more brands of ginger ale than they had any right to hold, plus I could actually stock up on all of my spices and baking needs without hopping to another store. Plus the snack selections can get pretty out there is as well. It's hard to describe, but it felt like Whole Foods was getting out-Whole Foods'd. Definitely gotta try their counter food station next time, but fresh ingredients, friendly faces and a seamless shopping trip is all I need. read more

My favorite grocery store! Consistently provide good produce, organic wines (and non), and a big bulk area. Almost everything is organic, and they have a good selection of baby foods, that our grandkids love. They also have a good selection of organic herbs, bulk or packaged, and all the good brands of canned goods, supplements, soaps, and vitamins. Almost all our family's shopping is done here (and they have free coffee!). read more

Best grocery store service we've experienced -- MOM's super helpful staff gladly loaded things into the car for my pregnant wife, after helping find every oddball item on our epic shopping list. Crucially, everything (including fresh fruits and veggies, toilet paper, soap, etc.) is in stock during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, this recently-built store has uncrowded, wide aisles that ease social distancing. An easy way to support sustainable, socially-responsible shopping. As Dr. Steve Brule says, "check it out!" read more

I'm so happy Mom's Organic Market exists in D.C.!! Things I love about MOMs and especially this location (not in any particular order): Garage parking Free coffee/tea Naked Lunch Next to planet fitness $0.10 bag discount when you use your own Sells kombucha Offers growler refills of kombucha Has all the organic and healthy foods I like Some items are cheaper here than elsewhere Offers samples every now and then Doesn't sell ANY water bottles Recycling bins separate different kinds of materials The workers are kind I wish they were open later sometimes but luckily Whole Foods on H St is open til 10:30, so that's a good alternative. I hear Aldi is getting ready to go full organic too. Watch out MOMs! You're still number 1 read more

This is a nice, spacious MOM's location. There is parking in the building (the old Hecht Company warehouse complex) and the elevator from the 3rd floor of the garage takes you directly into the store. The first 90 minutes of parking is free for retail customers. I observed them sanitizing carts. The only negative was that apparently, in order to access the bathroom, you need a receipt from a purchase. We had a child in our party who needed the BR right when we arrived so this requirement made life difficult. read more

We don't own a car and this location is about 4-5 miles from our house, but when we go to union market, we make it a point to stop by Mom's. It is the only one in their chain in the city (that I know of). If you are into organic and/or gluten free, this is the place to go. This is better than Whole Foods and bigger than Yes! They are always friendly and helpful. read more

I hadn't been to MOM's, I don't live near one so I wasn't compelled to seek one out until this Saturday. I wanted to do some heavy duty recycling and hit up a hot bar. Research told me that MOM's was what I was looking for. My first impression was that the store was bright and clean. I liked that. It wasn't hard to find the Recycling Center and it was more thorough that I expected. I brought batteries and shoes mainly but next time I am bringing Snack bags, Bubble Wrap and Brita filters. Made my day. I then walked over to the Naked Lunch counter and ordered a smoothie and a Cauliflower Steak. To kill time I went over to get some Japanese Sweet Potatoes and some Cilantro, two of my favorites. Paying for my items was a breeze, parking didn't need to be validated, the first hour is free. By then my Cauliflower Steak was ready and I was on my way. Everyone who works here is nice. I even ended up talking to a nice guy also waiting or his food. My visit was utterly top-notch, I'm now a fan. read more

I absolutely ADORE this store. Not only is the mission amazing - to provide healthy, local food and protect the environment by supporting sustainable food and organizations that protect the environment - but it's just a beautiful store with kind employees and amazing products. It's a large store with high ceilings and wide aisles (great for social distancing!) and they provide hand sanitizer at the entrance. Their produce is beautiful and they have a local producers represented. The aisles are packed with delicious organic foods, including vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and dairy free options. They even have a section of "sustainable protein" with crickets, mealworms, and insect protein powders! Their frozen section is also jam packed with fantastic brands and fun items. Going to this store is a treat instead of a chore! They also offer a lunch counter with juices, smoothies, and fresh hot "bowls" for a quick bite to eat. I also love that they have a recycle center at the front of the store to recycle batteries, tablets (like iPads), glasses, shoes, and other items. They have a sharing shelf that allows folks to drop off ice packs and freezer bags for others to use, as well. At the holidays, they have a drop box to recycle string lights. read more

5 stars for the staff. Some of the most friendly people on the planet work here. The ladies and gentlemen, that work behind the juice counter are fantastic. The check out people are always friendly and very nice. I will go here because of the staff is great. read more

Long has MOM's Organic Market been the king of all healthy grocery stores in the DC area, with locations sprouting up in suburban Maryland, Virginia, and even Pennsylvania, but now, finally, you don't have to go to one of those pesky "states" to get it. We finally have a true five-star food store in the nation's capital. This place is huge. Twice as big as any Yes Market, and not a great deal smaller than some of the area's numerous Whole Foods, but so much better. Virtually every healthy, green, and local brand you care to name can be found here, ample support for any special diet, and along with the food, it has all the household products, health and beauty, and pet stuff you'd expect from any conventional grocery store. They also have a fast casual cafe which I swear I will try some day. On top of that, their prices were, for items I checked, no higher than the suburban MOM's I visited last month. Which is to say, lower than any natural foods store and competitive with non-specialty stores at times, a fact they proudly advertise on the elevators leading down from their (free, as far as I can tell) parking garage. They also have plenty of sales, and there's no membership needed to get them. And they do it all while paying their workers more than minimum wage and supporting a variety of good causes. I do not know how they do this, but I suspect it involves responsible business practices, hard work, and witchcraft of some sort. The one thing that concerns me, though is the location. It's not really close to the Metro. Parking support is here, but New York Avenue offers some of DC's gnarliest traffic SNAFUs, even during non-rush hour (I say as a veteran commuter from all around the DMV). In the suburbs, it's kind of okay that MOM's is always a bit off the beaten path, because people drive everywhere. In DC, people walk and take transit. As a one-time suburbanite, I brought my car with me to the city, but I do wonder how many people will drive here and what the local environment will be when the massive development around it (MOM's is currently the only occupied space that I saw) is finished. That being said, it's totally worth the trouble if you can make it. Until they open a location in my neighborhood (are you listening MOM's? We have tons of hippies and health nuts in AdMo and the neighboring areas), I'll be in regularly. read more

Very clean and well organized the employees were very friendly and helpful. Great selection.

What can be said that hasn't already been said by others, like John B.? This place is a breath of fresh air and organic awesomeness in local business format. I love MOM's Organic Markets all over the region, but, they can be a challenge to reach in a reasonable amount of time if you live in the District. Finally, one is here! The location is not very convenient, but at least it's IN DC, at last! Something to give Yes! a run for their money? Perhaps. One thing I found odd though, was the wide aisles in the store. It's nice to be able to roll down with your cart, have someone else roll down with his/her cart, and still be able to let a person walk through, all at the same time, but, it made the place feel a bit more warehouse-y than I would like. So, other than the far location for DC proper and the spacious aisles with the warehouse feel, this place is splendid. It has everything I could think of wanting to purchase when at a market. The produce section looks small in the large setting, but it is actually quite extensive for promoting local, organic ingredients. The bulk options are incredible. Some items are pre-packaged for ease of customer and probably staff. Still, again, in looking at the choices of nuts, beans/ legumes, dried fruit, grains, baking ingredients, cereals and all else, it is so extensive, I couldn't think of anything that wasn't there! For raw food enthusiasts, plenty to choose from all over the store, and a section near the liquor, too, of pre-made raw items. More extensive selection than any other market, if you ask me. For bar addicts, wow - I was overwhelmed, too, with the aisle full of choices. There were a couple that I had never seen before at a MOM's or otherwise in the area, and, yes, I quickly decided to buy some. The chocolate bars, too, wow, so many choices. It's actually good I don't live closer, because raw foods, bars and chocolate bars are pricy items that would make me broke if i lived here. However, the prices are still as good, if not better than any other place around. The other final thing I'll comment about in this store is Naked Lunch! Sometimes, after grocery shopping, you are hungry and tired, and well, yes - you're in luck. No need to go home and prep your meal, you can get one here. It's all organic and all vegetarian- awesome. They have fresh juices that are pressed to order - impressive. The folks here are super nice, too. Every month, they have specials on some items that might normally be more expensive. There are also great produce specials, too. Keep coming back, you'll find something new! What is holding me back from going there now? My wallet doesn't want a hole burned in it... so many amazing choices! read more

MOM's Organic Market - Holiday cheer! - Health Markets Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Absolutely love my neighborhood Moms. It's a breath of fresh air coming into a spacious health conscious, clean grocery store. They always have someone in the health and wellness section to assist you in your search and answer questions. read more

Nice clean store and very friendly employees. Went this past Saturday and was able to find gluten-free ramen. Success!

This is the first time I've experienced bad service in this store. Jason S. who was my cashier was very rude and dismissive. After he rang my items up he just stared at me, didn't tell me my total, say he was done or anything. He then proceeded to throw my items... literally...into the bags in disorder while shrugging his shoulders looking like he could careless. He then just walked away. I asked for my receipt, he said it's right there...and pointed to the machine for me to get it myself. His customer service is horrible, if it was my first time there I wouldn't return. read more

One of my favorite markets because they make healthy food options accessible. There's a Naked Lunch kitchen inside the store that offers varying grain bowls for lunch and dinner hours. Super yummy organic juices and muffins are available in the morning and through closing. If you're looking for a quick lunch, this market is the best alternative to fast food spots. Besides the Naked Lunch kitchen, there are also refrigerated items available for quick meals, like sushi rolls, packaged single serving of lasagna, cold sandwiches, cake slices, and much more. Most items feature local shop foods, which is great to see. Also, this location is beautiful as a part of the Ivy City aesthetic with industrial designed architecture. Definitely my go to organic market! read more

MOM's used to be our favorite grocery store. However, during last time visit, we met one psycho in the store. He was not buying anything. After he saw 2 Asians, he was talking some dirty languages to my friend and followed us to the cashier. Thanks god he did not attack us although I reached teaser and pepper spray in my packets since DC's law is not allowed me to carry deadly weapons. MOM's is always a great grocery store which deserves 5 stars. I just hope the government could do something about our safety. read more

I love everything about this grocery store, but the location. I live in NoMa, so we have Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Streets Market, Harris Teeter, and Giant all within walking distance. I've been meaning to check Mom's Organic Market out for the past 18 months, but never got around to it because it's situated along a busy multilane road with heavy traffic. It's not convenient for those who walk, bike, or metro -- which is ironic, given the earth-friendly/pro-environment theme to the store. It almost demands driving to get here, but I did walk the 30 minutes along the highway(?) each direction with bags to check this place out. With that said, the store is beautiful. It's clean, the staff friendly, everything is organized and a pleasure to browse. Everything about the store screams a staff that takes pride in the place. Where in the other grocery stores listed above you find dirty carts that haven't been cleaned in years, fruits scattered on the floor bruised, jars busted and in need of clean-up, and bathrooms that look like someone has turned them into a campsite, Mom's is different in every way. It's near immaculate. I love the choice and variety of products. It has most of what you'll find at Whole Foods, Thrive Market online, and even additional local items. Also it's not as pricey as some of the boutique grocers in the city. Love it - would like to come more often, just need to find an easier way to get here when you don't have a car. read more

Everything Lia M. said in her review of this Mom's, I would just like to agree with and I won't repeat what she said. What drew me here was a Groupon I bought that allowed me to spend $35 on ANYTHING. First, I walked in and saw the selection of craft beer and ciders and was like "that's where the $35 is going", but when I actually walked around this Mom's which is tremendously huge, I found several food items I wanted so I was slowly replacing bottles of beer with food items. Impressive cheese selection, loved the bulk items (I buy farro by the pound and it is much cheaper here than at Whole Foods), and a HUGE frozen section. They offer free popcorn and coffee while you shop, and there is a sampling station. The extra bonus, on a Sunday morning, this place was empty, whereas other supermarkets would be hella packed. Parking was effortless, they have a garage and lots of street parking. There was no line to check out and the staff that helped me check out was great. Although, the location is not great and I'm not sure which residential communities this store is particularly convenient to, I would not hesitate to stop in whenever I might be close by. read more

I really love this location of MOM's. It's huge and well-stocked and everything I typically get at MOM's they carry, plus some. Parking here is easy--street or garage. It's not convenient for me, but that doesn't mean I won't make my way out here, especially on a weekend. Along with their typical sample offerings, they also have popcorn, and a seasoning bar, which includes Old Bay. This makes shopping while hungry much easier. I like Naked Lunch, and am glad they have one here. Of course there will be comparisons to Yes!, but to me, they are completely different entities. Yes! is an urban organic store--they have basics and then some, and it's the place you go to when you run-out of something, or don't feel like going to a big store (which would probably be me if I lived in DC). It's convenient. Yes! is even convenient for me, and I don't even live in DC. MOM's is where you go when you want to really stock up, or you have a car and don't care if you need to drive. read more

After coming to this store at least 4 times in the past 7 days, I felt that my initial review was a little hasty. That is to say, now that me and Mom's Ivy City have become BFF's, and the people in the store/manager recognize me as the lady who comes here everyday and eats a bag of their tasty FREE organic popcorn and a cup of fair trade coffee, and takes her sweet time at the sample table (they've had freshly made salad with guacamole, bbq chicken wings, pan fried trout, brownies, PLUS valentines day packaged samples of cookies, gummy bears, and a bountiful coupon basket for items they sell!!! For me, their customer service area is how I would imagine Christmas feels like for a little kid), there are more things I have appreciated about this particular location: 1) Customer service is so extra helpful. I'm not talking about basic questions...I am a DIFFICULT customer (not intentionally), but during my last visit, for example, they searched online for a harissa recipe and printed out a copy for me to have, and gave a detailed explanation of the additives in their lines of Mom's vitamin products and the biochemical mechanisms that go into the absorption of CoQ10. Before that, it was a mango lassi recipe, and they had a local dairy farmer in the store that day who decisively weighed in on the debate of yogurt vs. buttermilk. The store manager is also very understanding. 2) They sell their delicious farmed rainbow trout here Friday-Sunday. It's $9.99/lb and therefore, not the cheapest trout around, but they seem to put a lot of effort into making sure they are providing the most sustainable fish offerings possible. They also sell oysters, which are directly used to naturally filter the Chesapeake. Trout is only available at this location and Rockville. 3) This is the biggest, cleanest, most organized store EVER!!! When popcorn falls on the floor, I have to remind myself that the floor is still dirty, even if it looks cleaner than my dishes at home. The aisles in the store are wider than many/most restaurants and clubs in DC...if they had music on, I probably would dance. And when you drive in, you can see the wind turbines serving up all the store's electricity!!! The clean bathrooms have baby changing stations and soap you are excited to try. 4) I have NEVER had any errors with items ringing up incorrectly. Nobody asks, "what is this?" THEY KNOW!!! 5) Famous people shop here! Former presidential candidate and super cool dude Dennis Kucinich and his stunning wife were behind me in line at the checkout yesterday. But then again, why wouldn't they be shopping here!? I also reunited with an old friend here and met some ladies from Lesotho (I had never previously met people from there)...because again...awesomeness attracts cool people. 6) Empty parking lot!!! I don't even go up to the parking lot because I can usually find a space right outside the front door...but on the rare occasion that it's raining or something, it's nice to be able to park right in front of the elevator too. And as I've mentioned before, they also have charging stations for electric cars. 7) Naked Lunch...not all stores have this, but they can pretty much make whatever vegetarian combo you want out of the ingredients they have...they also have smoothies and a frozen yogurt-like dessert. read more

Wow! Quite different from one in Alexandria. Big, clean, new, relaxing, various,... Good location close to Union market and a great national park. Tasty drink and snack samples. Easy to find and compare products. No lines. Live kitchen and seats to drink and eat. Much more expensive than average supermarkets tho. read more

Disclaimer: I love all MOMs locations. I will always shop at MOMs until the day a worker has to wheelbarrow me out of the store because I've choked on all their free samples. But HOLD ON. This particular MOMs is very special for one big reason: FREE POPCORN. If you think that is not a big deal, well, maybe you're right. But it is to me. The popcorn is cooked in coconut oil and there is a toppings bar with nutritional yeast and old bay and stuff. Whoever was in charge of deciding to give away free popcorn to entice customers, damn, you really succeeded. Congrats! And thanks! Other things that make me love MOMs: free coffee. The best produce of any grocery store. All my favorite products, only cheaper than they are at places like Whole Foods. So many free samples. Super-nice employees, like nicer than my friends are sometimes. Amazing selection. And they sell my favorite beer! Oh yeah, and location, duh!! This location is so close to my home and it's one of the only grocery stores around. I cried the first time I went here, OK? And it was the good kind of crying. read more

MOM's Organic Market - Free popcorn bar! - Health Markets Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

The Space: This Mom's is very clean and well organized. You can find a wide selection of kombucha and canned cold brew. They even have some no carb chocolates and gluten-free bread. There a lot of items for specific diets. The Staff: The staff is extrmely friendly and very helpful. I've never been in a grocery store were workers will actively seek you out and ask if you need assistance. The Price: This is more of an expensive grocery story. I usually go here if I need a very specific item. Otherwise, there might be better options to do your casual grocery shop. read more

This is one of my favorite grocery stores. I can shop rest-assured that I'm getting quality products. The staff is super nice and helpful, and the shopping experience is peaceful and quiet.

Love this location, the employees are always great, it's clean, they have a good selection of brands despite the size (as I see others complain about). For the size it's perfect to me, and Naked Lunch is amazing! Oh and I love catching good finds on their sale rack. I would also bet their produce to be the best in the area. Everywhere else produce has been .....questionable. There's only one con: It's expensive as hell compared to other places. I'll make the same grocery list and end up paying just a tad more :-/ But I'll overall, MOM's Organic is wonderful. read more

Stopped here yesterday on impulse (driving by) and thought it was a great store. All sorts of delicious treats, great selection (including in my opinion of produce), extremely friendly staff, and the Naked Lunch counter sold me some really good soup which made for a wonderful snack. My only very small gripe is the parking--and that's not the fault of MOM's Organic Market. I had to wait a bit but did get a space-had to pay for it, though. read more
