This Whole Foods is really conveniently located, but is too limited to be super useful. There isnt enough shelf space to stock everything a larger Whole Foods would normally carry, but the biggest deterrent for me is that while there is a fish counter there isnt a meat counter. The meat department has everything prepackaged in large portions, and there is no reasonable option to buy a smaller amount. They are willing repack the store prepared meat, but add almost 2 dollars to the pound when they do. If I need meat or anything specific Ill go up to the Whole Food on Westland, but for a quick trip in JP there are local grocery options that I find myself at more often.

This whole foods is quite tiny, in particular their hot and cold food bar. I come to Whole Foods mostly for their hot soup and the selection here is dismal for the vegetarian. I think there was one option and not my favorite Carrot Ginger and no seating which sucks. On the grocery side, They pack a lot of variety in this small place.There are a lot of people around to help and I love their water bottle filler. They have some good special prices on organic stuff and I like their 365 brand products That said I think its still worth the trip to bigger ones in Boston and Cambridge.

Good bicycle parking, though I would be even more pleased if it were covered. The location is right next to a Hubway station. The market itself is a Whole Foods, much like any other Whole Foods, except a bit smaller than some. If you shop smart, you can pay not much more than at the Stop and Shop down the road, and your food will be more local, more green, better quality. If you dont shop smart, youll probably need a second job. Pro-tip; grab the sales flyers and stick with the discounted items.

The prices there were a little expensive but not more than any other place. The selection of produce and other goods was kind of awesome. However when my boyfriend and I went in there to get food and we didnt look like their regular, yuppie, white customers, I was asked by a staff member (as well as a police officer) to leave the building even though I had a whole basket full of food that I was going to buy. Never in my life have I been so disrespected. Needless to say, I will never go there again.

Really wasnt a Whole Foods shopper until I moved to Boston. Really happy this store is here as it lets me get some of the quality groceries I want. Its a little smaller than most stores, but they make due and still provide a good variety of different goods. Great produce, meat, dairy, hot foods and more. The lines are never long as they always have multiple checkers working. The parking lot is a bit crowded, but its a neighborhood market, so get out and walk here.

The salad and hot foods bar is in terrible shape. My spouse was sick, so I went in about 7:30 last night to grab something for dinner. The Italian Wedding Soup I bought for her was inedible - big wads of disintegrating pasta had been heated in the soup for hours, apparently. And the "lentil" soup I bought for me was mislabeled. When I got home, I realized it was split soup. Im pretty sure it was vegetarian, but how do I know?

Small Whole Foods, but it gets the job done. Decent cheese section, which is important. Good meat options. Usually has all the produce I want, though I am disappointed sometimes in the tomato options. Due to the small size of the store, we need to go to larger groceries stores periodically for unavailable items. Small parking lot, but we almost always find a spot pretty quickly since we avoid peak hours.

Inadvertantly bought 3 week old expired milk from this place. One day cashiers were yelling across the way at each other to communicate. that same day the meat department was playing its own music from the employee phone. Lets just say I didnt want to listen to the words for fear it had curses in it... The manager needs to make sure to lay ground rules for employees and make sure employees do their jobs

The Stop & Shop next door is sketchy and the Harvest Co-op only offers three kinds of cheese, so any addition to JPs grocery scene is cool in my book! A-plus for the frozen pizza selection, the sea salt & caramel Talenti gelato, the narrow aisles that let me brush against hottie locals and the delightful array of apple sauce pouches. As they say, variety is the spice of life.

It has the basics. It is pretty small and the lanes are tight. Still has the same quality as all other Whole Foods. It is still just as expensive as all other Whole Foods. Definitely not a place for people who do not make a lot of money. All people should have the same access to high quality natural food. Good health should not be exclusive to the rich.

Extremely convenient grocery with a decent hot bar and fresh prepared and bakery options. However, being very small, the selection can be limited compared to larger groceries. If you need something more than just a little unusual, youre better off elsewhere. Also, while there is a butcher here, meats are all packaged rather than portioned/picked fresh.

Had everything I needed. I like the selfserve trail mix. That was great bc I didnt need a bag full of almonds and was able to buy exactly what I needed. They also had a great sale on planted herbs 2 for 4 which was a surprise considering I was at while foods. The cashiers was also very personable.

Its a little smaller than some WH locations but the prepared food is tasty sometimes with a nod to the Hispanic community in which is located. I love the diversity of the staff. And the guy from Ghana works in the Fish Department is outstanding!

While the joke about "whole paycheck" certainly applies here, this whole foods has a good selection, lots of parking, and a good atmosphere with friendly staff. Its a good place to got for those harder to find items and top quality fresh produce.

A fine grocery store if you arent looking for bargains and dont mind the atmosphere of buying social/eco justice. Theres a mural on the wall that says skip the drive thru, but youre supposed to buy $10 organic cheerios instead?

I complain all the time because I deserve everything good and I am afraid to die and if they dont have a certain cereal it is an affront to my white bread anglo way and I am scared of them not having a certain kind of flour.

Its a pretty small whole foods and the options are limited and crammed up but it punches above its weight because of the people who work there. The staff is amazing and really helpful. Parking can be tough in office hours.

Its Whole Foods. By far the smallest Ive been in, so its a little limited in some goods, and that also means that it gets crazy busy and hard to shop. But, its close and mostly has what I need when Im short an item or two.

Convenient for my family and it has many of the foods I need though I dont shop here primarily because of the higher than average price. Staff is generally friendly. They often give my 3-year-old a fruit leather for free.
