Reviews Whole Foods Market

Typical Whole Foods. They maintain an impressively stable standard across their stores. My main complaint about the chain, therefore, is also the same: weak on produce variety.

In 1990 my office was across the street which is now a Weichert Real Estate office. At that time it was a Town & Country Real Estate office. My desk then was on the ground level in front of the window to the left of the front door. The Whole Foods store was a vacated Lowe’s Hardware Store at that time which remained vacant for many years until it became Fresh Fields which became Whole Foods and in my mind now, contrary to signage, is really Amazon Foods. The architectural limitation of the existing building when it became a food store is no fault of Amazon, Whole Foods or Fresh Fields. As the idiom goes “it is what it is” so please no whining about the small selections available on the premises. I look at it as a very good higher quality food convenience store. The location works for me. I shop there at off hours so I have no complaints about congestion problems relative to distancing policies. In my opinion produce section is especially well managed and produce is of higher quality. You can pick up a decent bottle of wine and they have Pilsner Urquell in the beer section. Benefit of COIVID is individual pastries are now cellophane wrapped. I also appreciate that the store is meticulously and conspicuously clean. Checkout cashiers clean/disinfect the conveyor belt after each transaction. Thank you.

Our goto grocery, not this location though. This one has ample parking but a potential hassle would be the traffic situation along the way.

For as long as this Wholefoods has been around, it is well ran, clean, helpful staff and easy to get around. Many older ones are just really ran down in DC and MD. This one is great.

I only went specifically to grab lunch before heading back to work after an appointment. Food hit the spot. I would return. Looks like a large sized store with many options if you like grocery shopping here.

Whole Foods is still okay. However, since coming under Amazon, it's choices have lessened. Especially, vegan-wise. They used to have a choice of 3 vegan scones and 3 vegan muffins in the fresh baked section. Now, only one of each. Today in Fairfax, they had one variety of vegan scone and no muffins. Packaged vegan baked goods have lessened as well, like their cupcakes and donuts. They did away with the coffee bar in Fairfax. In Vienna they did away with the coffee bar, and the regular bar, which used to serve as a nice community gathering place. It's a shame.
