I used to love Nutraways but then ownership changed in 2014 and they became Vitasave.ca. - I…read morereviewed this store by mistake and have never been in so I revise up to 5 stars. Sorry guys! Like to other reviewer mentioned they had an online division that now has a different name (no yelp page for that) and trying to order from them is painful now. Used to be amazing, now you can't contact anyone, you get charged more than the site says, no one emails you back...very very disappointing. Then the new owner of vitasave creeped me on Yelp trying to sell me stuff again! Now we use vitamart.ca

There is something about health food stores. I love going in an just browsing…read more It amazes me what can be used to help illnesses from the common cold to more serious diseases. For someone like myself who practically refuses to go to the doctor, it's important to me that health food stores have staff who are highly knowledgeable about the products and have some naturopathic background. Often I walk into these places and it's just a random person working behind the counter who suggest things to you, because they use it and, i'm certain, don't even know why they use it. Or, I get the pushy type that suggest 7 different things I've never heard of and convince me that there is something more wrong with me than I originally thought. Once I went in for some Vitamin C and Oil of Oregano for strep throat, and I left with almost 100 bucks worth of stuff . Most of which I couldn't pronounce and had absolutely nothing to do with current cold. Luckily I now have Nutraways. They offer sound advice and recommend items only when asked. They aren't pushy and their prices are pretty decent. They also have grocery items such as beauty products, canned vegetables, cereal, grains, local honey etc. I like picking up things like barley groats, cane sugar, kefir mix and even cough drops from here. All of these items are impossible to find anywhere else. Nutraways is a must for anyone who needs some advice on both daily supplements and treatment for more life affecting ailments. Side note: They have the best Moody Bee Honey Vanilla Peppermint lip balm. It's a must have.

Snobby weather, from browsing to purchase …read more.. This used to be a chain pharmacy, a smaller version of a Pharmasave that stocked the essentials. Someone got the idea to renovate the space into an Integrative Holistic Mandala Pharmacy full of $100 face creams, locust juice kidney tonics, and plenty of woo. If you're into that kind of thing, you'll find all the jojoba soap you'd like to find, even if it's not from brands you're familiar with. As far as a pharmacy for filling prescriptions, I can't say. I went in to get some rubbing alcohol, as I need to IM inject for a medical condition. The labcoat person immediately made jokes as to whether or not I planned on drinking it there. Har har--you don't have me laugh, guv. As for the cashier -- a quintessential specimen of all that has become pretentious in Kitsilano's strange combination of Buddhism and Botox -- a more snobby person you wouldn't find. Customer service matters. Friendly service matters. Why patronize a shop that acts patronizingly towards you? There are plenty of friendly alternative pharmacies in the area. I'd avoid this one.

But my husband just got back from his medical specialist who told him she too, liked dealing with this pharmacy, so I need to give credit where it's due. We've been going here regularly since my first review and we only like it all the more. We've had better advice and personal service here than any other pharmacy ever. The owner and head pharmacist are efficient and professional, yet gracious. It's a pleasure, not a chore, dealing with them. I could go on and on but that would be gushing! I wish all businesses could be this easy to deal with - intelligent, comprehensive interactions, decent prices and higher quality merchandise and environment right down to the interior air their employees and customers have to breathe.(it's actual air, not air mixed with "air fresheners") Well done, Pure.

Online order was processed and paid for more then a month ago and the original delivery date was approx. 2 weeks from the order date and due to no stock available the order was delayed and delayed, contacted their "online" chat service and did not get any response for over a week, at the same time, I tried calling their store to speak to someone, they keep saying that the product is on its way but no way to have a confirmed date available. ( I totally understand the current situation regarding the Covid-19, but other online orders were still being delivered within their promised time frame and if they do not have orders in stock they would contact me to let me know and let me have the option to have the order cancelled and refund ). End of April and I called them to please refund my order since there are no way of them to let me know what is happening, called and spoke to customer service on Monday and was promised that the refund will be done within 2 days, a week later still no sign of refund, called again and was told they will look into my file and have "the best person that can help me" will call back within 5 mins., 2 hours later I am writing this review and no sign of any calls from them! You get the idea!!?

I can't believe the mecca of health has turned into a place of unhealthy and terrible people. Staff seem indifferent or scared and I will never shop here again.

They're made from simple and clean ingredients. The staff is so nice and they also work pretty quickly. They made too much of the cookies n cream smoothie to fit in my cup and instead of discarding the leftover, they saved it and refilled me once I'd drank enough to make room for the it. It's also a supplement store but I'm really only here for the smoothies so I can't review that part.

At first thought it was too sweet but after a few sips I was hooked. Also I caught a glimpse of their ingredients (e.g. the almond butter) and it looked like good quality almond butter (it's actually the same brand as the one we purchase for the house; Nuts to You). Would come try another smoothie from here again.

I was looking online and a bottle of the Natural Factor's vitamin C was only around eleven dollars online and for some reason in store it was sixteen dollars. I asked this woman with short hair why there was a difference online than in store then all she said was "Prices are always different in store than online, it's always like that" which was hardly an explanation and know that isn't true because I shop at other stores like London Drugs, and other retailers where the prices are always the same and if there is a difference they match it, then I couldn't even find this other product they had online in store. The associate should have given a proper explanation and I didn't find her to be that personable either with that answer. I think I prefer shopping at Alive compared to here as the service has most of the time been much better.
