Whole Foods standard: better than most grocery chains, still weak on produce variety.

Let's face it, this place was never reasonable in pricing, but lately it seems downright offensive. But, at least I could count, in the past, on beautiful pastries, good lunch options, fresh fish, good freshly baked bread. Now, it's not a shallow leftover, resting on its laurels. The baked goods are a premanufactured excuse, the prices for fish and meats are so inflated that you'd be better off going to a farmers market, and their deli options or sushi does not try to impress, rather tries to minimize cost of ingredients to the detriment of the consumer.

The thing about Whole Foods is while there's good to great quality is just over the top on price. If you have no desire to explore locally in the area then this store is for you. For sure there are going to be items you just can't get without a store like this but you're putting for that convenience. The take out food section is well done and I use that often. Funny really so there for much else when I come back to Portland. Trend to stock up at Trader Joe's for economy on grocery items.

Whole Foods has a lot to offer, and I shop there regularly. The people are really nice and always helpful. The store is clean and attractive. Their produce department is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Since they were purchased by Amazon, their breadth of selection has been diminished, and there are many fewer unprocessed and whole-grain options than there used to be, and fewer local and lesser known products. (For instance, they now only carry pearled barley; they discontinued hulled barley, which is less processed.) This has led me to shop more often at smaller, local markets, which is probably a good thing. But I still shop at Whole Foods regularly, and it is still a really good store.

DO U CARRY GERANIUM OIL, MYRRH OIL, FRANKINCENSE OIL, LEMON OIL, TEA TREE OIL? THANK U FOR RESPONSE.

Phyllis Burke | Aug 17, 2018
Steven Jefairjian | Aug 17, 2018

Hi Phyllis... WF has an array of essential oils... I use them for medicinal purposes, as a disinfectant and antibacterial, as bug repellent and used them to defend my apartment from roaches and bedbugs. You will most likely need to dilute them with a carrier oil... I use coconut oil for the skin... jojoba works well too. Some essential oils are very potent and can be toxic to children and pets. To make a spray for around the home... I dilute them in alcohol.... pls call WF to check on the specific oils mentioned... 😉

Is there steam/boil lobster service when I buy lobster?

R C | Aug 16, 2021
Sandi Reilly (Sam) | Aug 16, 2021

Depends on where you buy your lobster 🦞 🤔 Hannaford and Shaw's steam them and they are never cooked through. They need to be boiled, which I'd rather do myself ❗

Most questions would be unnecessary if one could do a store search. Big percentage of answers are not helpful. Folks did you read the question before you answered? If you don't know don't answer, it's just more to search through.

I only say yes to items I know are carried by the store. Otherwise I answer Not Sure.

Local guides not employees are typically the ones answering questions here, so you are much better off calling in to the Store or checking on their actual website. I did a quick search on the Whole Foods website and it appears they may have some Beyond Meat products.

I love your Tiramisu, which has been getting harder and harder to find. Is there a way to purchase an entire sheet of it? The ones that are erratically available for sale appear to be cut into thirds.

Mark D | Aug 17, 2018
Michael Iveson | Aug 17, 2018

Yes, you can purchase larger quantities from the bakery department (if they have it) They usually keep it frozen so i would suggest calling ahead so they can defrost it enough to cut you whatever quantity you would like.

I was wondering why you no longer offer mushroom or cheese vegan pizza. You seem to now only have spicy eggplant.

John Nims | Aug 17, 2018
John Zarate | Aug 17, 2019

A bit late, but just ask them! I asked them when it fiest happened, and it was because they had a lot of eggplant to spare.
