This store is huge and literally has everything. They also carry the refrigerated dog food my dog eats. I came to drop off a return for Amazon. The cashiers were very friendly, and quickly helped me. They have a wide selection of fresh items. This was my first time visiting this store, it was a nice experience.

Convenient location in the Kentlands with lots of other nearby stores. Plenty outdoor parking. Great place to get freshly baked breads, desserts and the best pizza! Pleasant staff and customer service.

In general, great variety and quality products but prohibitive prices for many items. A Christmas postcard over $10 without stamp, a taste size portion of raw milk cheese for almost $20, a small Greek yogurt for $3,... if compared to equivalent products from Aldi, Lidl or Giant, its not impressive. Their bread and precooked food is good, at more comparable prices to competing stores.

Whatever you are looking for as far as food goes, you will probably find it here. Need to have more cashiers available 😢.

Its a decent sized store and theres good variety. However, if youre going later in the evening chanced are they might run out of fresh veggies and salad ingredients. Other than that, good layout. Pleasantly surprised to see good stock of Rotisserie chicken and ready to eat food even at 8.30pm on a weekday.

Great organic product , but slightly pricey! Staff are very knowledgeable and diverse. I usually come to refill my water bottles its 39cents per gallons! And they have a good variety of water. The parking is also very convenient.

I got embarrassed. Never buy roses from whole foods it’s wasted time obviously money. This Whole Foods is a joke of worse because they keep the money and I carrying shame

Its been two months now that the overall shopping experience has gone down. Increasingly, the store pushes fancy stuff ( most of them linked to Amazon and do not have place in a grocery store) in detriment of basic foods like oatmeal, butter milk, dairy products and fresh pasta. The same applies to bakery department, which had a ever diminishing assortment of breads. I understand that there is a race for profits but people go to buy foodstuffs and less other Amazon placements. Time to change to a real organic grocery store.

Best place to purchase cakes! Iv been coming here for years now! Mothers, fathers, sisters, and sons birthday cakes are always from here! The taste is unbeatable! And if you see the price you pay for the quality cake you are getting, it turns out to be a steal! If anything, you are getting the best deal as the consumer! Highly recommend this place for their cakes!

Good store althoigh recently the variety of products went down. The only major complaint is about pizza department. Last several years the pizza is burnt, so never want to purchase it. Would rather go for frozen pizza and bake it at home than for the one from this store. Not sure why it is always burnt there

The place compared to other locations maybe smaller, yet there goes a saying: It is biggest gift from the smallest package. Everything in that location was great! Meat department all the way down to the checkout line. A masterclass of customer service! Please stop by and pay a visit.

Whole Foods is doing what they can to manage the new County COVID restrictions. They set up tents to keep the line outside dry, and they have heaters going. Be patient and kind to your fellow humans! Peace.

Ive been shopping here a bit more because of the Whole Foods delivery option through Amazon. Im continuously impressed with the products and service. Over the years, I have also used the bakery. Whatever you need, they can make it, bake it, create it.

Review №34

Since Amazon took over quality has been decreasing. GMO products are now allowed. Organic French baguette bread at the bakery now comes in a sealed bag to bake at home. It taste bad, looks low quality and appears to have been previously frozen. Harvest bread also at bakery is sweeter and is amazingly low quality. These are some examples of foods at Whole Foods that are no longer whole foods.

Very clean, most items are in stock, quality produce. There were no lines to get in. They are monitoring traffic in and out of the store. Tons of hand sanitizer and cart wipes available for use. Mask required. Love their fresh made pizza.

Review №37

This is a good Whole Foods store similar to other stores. The size is not as big as the newer stores but they still have most of the items available. Parking is also easy in front of the store. It is conveniently located in the Kentlands Shopping center.Aisles are well stocked with stuff and the bakery section is good too! Have purchased cakes and cupcakes from this location and the quality is similar to other Whole Foods Market locations.

Great place to get Asian ingredients, and everything is really reasonably priced. They also have a bakery inside the store that is super tasty. I have to be careful in here, because its easy to walk out with way more than I planned to!

I mean, its Whole Foods. The produce and meat is consistently great. They have locally produced products like ice cream and butter. In personal comparison tests, their sourdough loafs are better than all the other local bakeries. They also have a lot of pastries and cookies that are delicious. I wish theyd sell thin tortilla chips but thats my only complaint there.

Review №52

I dont like the self check out aisles....With the incredible revenue Amazon/Whole Foods has...they should always have full time employees working... There is no reason for them to be cutting back.Also Whole Foods has discontinued the Gift Card Program at our Parish... which gives back a very very small percentage back to parish when used.There is no good word for this except GREED and CHEAP.....I am very supportive of the employees that I have met the our local Whole Foods and this is one of the reasons that I shop( also for organic items)...Yet might seriously have to think about switching to Moms Organic since I have lost respect for Whole Foods CEO.

I would have like the cake to be the same quality it was before quarantine. Mushy and unstable cake was sent to my house. I recommend not to order the cake until quarantine lockdown ends.

Review №72

Fruits and vegetables from their organic or traditional growers are the freshest of any grocery store. Many of their items are imported because they either arent grown here, or the growing season has ended. The staffs were very kind and I was greeted by most staffs when I walked by them. Somehow, they manage to check out people quickly, which is great.For a quick lunch: There is an excellent bakery and a salad bar. For dinner, they have a deli counter as well as fully prepared entrees and soups which I am less pleased with.

Review №76

Love this place and come here often for their healthy options. We also enjoy many of their prepared foods for family get togethers. The healthy and delicious options allow for quick reheats, full bellies and less energy in the kitchen and more time and fun with the family. But their prepared foods are not cheap. However if you need a fresh and really delicious dessert worth every penny, youll definitely find a large selection of small personal treats, tarts or mousses or larger birthday cakes for a party in every flavor.But if youre into organic, their fresh produce, organic meats and fish, and other healthy foods or toiletries are priced to match most grocery stores in this area.And if youre a Prime member, you get regular discounts on a variety of items or off the entire purchase. The prime discounts are still limited, but have been increasing as Amazon works through its acquisition & merger issues.They also offer Amazon pick up and drop off lockers for your online purchases. Ive used them several times without any problems. Its definitely an easy way of receiving or returning items, espec since you can combine it with your grocery shopping trip and only have to park your car once..

Whole Foods is Whole Foods - your experience is pretty much the same in every single store. And thats the idea. If you are there for the prepared foods, look for the garlic broccoli or the chicken and sausage jambalaya - and of course, the rotisserie chicken is to die for. Oddly, I have found one can of soda to be flat in every six pack of their house brand that I buy. 🤔

Review №81

I live in pittsburgh and i have had their WF vegan cakes before. They have many flavors of vegan cakes including carrot, cookies and cream, berry angelfood, etc. They are all immaculate.I ordered this cake at the Kentlands location. There are no pre-made vegan cakes. And they want 48hrs to order. AND THE ONLY FLAVORS ARE CHOCOLATE AND VANILLA. this 9inch coated $30. It was TERRIBLE. Totally crumbling and dry. Almost all icing. Like 5 layers of thick icing and maybe an inch total of cake that just crumbled and tasted stale.If youre looking for vegan cake in the area try Roots Market or call Hot Breads.

Review №86

Unless there is no A Trader Joes around, I go to the whole foods. We like their fresh orange juice, gluten free foods, and ready to cook meatloaf. The good things about the whole foods is organization and easy to find items based on the color-categorized labels. The price is the first negative point for the whole foods. I checked many items from the same brand and same size are $1-2 more expensive in the whole foods, especially gluten free foods, comparing other stores such as trader Joes and giant.

Love Whole Foods for the diversity of products. They use to have a good deal on pizzas but they keep raising the prices and with the volume they do they need to pass along the savings. Freshly prepared foods are appealing. The store gets busy and can be chaotic at times. Best to go when first opens. Need another store in Olney
