Review


[Original review from 2014] This place has a great selection of gluten-free products that also includes foods suitable for other diets (vegetarian/vegan, paleo, etc.). The prices are slightly high but well worth it, given the variety of foods. The store is also organized very nicely and the staff very friendly. (5 stars)

[Update for October 2019] Things have changed since the new management took over. I haven't seen a discount and free item rack in a while, and items that would have usually been on said rack are now mixed in with the regular items. Example: A package of cookies with a best by date of June 2019 was sold with the other cookies in October 2019. The package did not show a discount, although, according to the cashier, the cookies had a 20% discount. I did receive a cash refund when mentioning the best by date and was told that "They are still good." I don't want to pay $4.55 for stale cookies, especially if it is not clearly indicated that the cookies are way past their best by date. The fact that the person that handled the transaction didn't seem to see anything wrong with the freshness and lack of discount labeling (which, at a normal store, always tells me that I should check the expiration date or whether the package is damaged, allowing me to make an informed purchase decision) in addition to there being no apology makes me feel like I should take my business elsewhere in the future. If you shop here: Check the expiration dates! (changed to 1 star)
