One of the biggest Whole Foods around. It used to be a car dealership and it's a historic building which is why it keeps a cool/different exterior.

Traffic on Sunday nights is very heavy. To avoid the lines for the lower lot, bike or walk to the store. If you drive, approach the store from Lee or Perkins to Vernon Street & park in the upper lot.

Ask the kind people at the cheese counter for advice on what cheese to pair with a wine, beer, or meal - or vice versa. They are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic!

For lunch, the best bang for your buck here is the pasta bar. A bowl full of pasta, your choice of marinara, alfredo, or pesto sauce, and either meatballs or sauteed vegetables for $8.

Whole Foods is nice and fancy, they've got Acme Bread and loads of diet friendly foods and fancy stuff you usually can't find, but they also exploit prison labor and are kinda just awful.

Main parking lot is above the store instead of underground. Access via Vernon Street.

Think of it like a giant horse shoe layout. Turn left, grab the dry stuff, cleaning. As it bends you'll see dairy & booze. Finally there's the butcher and fruits & veggies and prepared stuff.

You can still get a park on the lower level. For those with alternate scheduled early morning 8-9:30am are great times and weekends by 8-8:30am

The beauty/health section and coffee bean selection is really good!! Much bigger and more product than both Berkeley locations.

This store is massive. Great produce and meat. But go elsewhere for staples like tp and paper towels, unless you insist on hand woven by vegan monks.

Clean and convenient! Prices for soup and to go food is pricey. They're starting to sell imperfect foods!

If the registers are crowded, go to the coffee bar register. No one is there usually and they will ring up stuff from all parts of the store.

Great food to go! If you shop wisely and take advantage of deals/specials, it's not as expensive as you might think!!

Great place to see live ghettoness in the flesh! Little kids (and adults) stealing from the food bar! Ugh

Got Juice! Nice fresh! Love this place.

Park at the top level, there are always spots. If you are hungry, get a custom made burrito or pizza. Delicious!

Customer parking is the "Pitts" so are the customers!

So many different goodies to choose from.

The Macarthur sandwich is delish and big enough to feed a small army.
Two DegreesJune 17, 2011
Two Degrees bars are sold here! Buy a bar and give a medically formulated food pack to a hungry child. Is Good. Does Good.
Rebecca ElliottSeptember 8, 2013
Park in upper level. Food bars are good. Try the gigante beans.

What can I say. I heart Whole Foods, not the exuberant prices, which I get for quality, but not for 1 bag of groceries.

I’ve been on roller coasters with shorter lines than the “express” checkout here!

Mediocre pizza worth exactly what you pay for it. Wonderful, helpful employees make it worth shopping at

The new bulk section is amazing! They have about 300 items, and at least 20 different kinds of granola.

Good for those specific bougie groceries that you can’t find elsewhere.

Soon you will be able to get liquored up and grocery shop all in one, at whole foods.

Please people tell your little brats to keep their filthy paws out of the food, or do us a favor, stop procreating!!

You can drop off legit corks (none of those synthetic crappies) for recycle here...if you haven't already found a DIY product for them!
Chloe BenjaminJanuary 12, 2012
The jambalaya is good. So is the lime ginger tonic.
Andrew CassinJuly 6, 2016
I usually just raid the cookie cart.

Deli counter is ALWAYS very slow. I've been here even with no line and it takes 10-15 minutes to get two different cheeses sliced to order.
Jackie GrossJuly 31, 2011
Use the make-your-own trail mix station. Super yummy!

Their coffee bar is one of the best around here. They make excellent dark chocolate mochas.
Chloe BenjaminJune 6, 2011
Starting June 7 2011 the cafe is being moved and they plan to charge $4/day for wifi (was free). On the bright side they say proceeds go to a good cause.
