Whole Foods Market

$5 deli sandwiches on Thursdays -- get here early or prepare to wait! Also, many of the sausages in the meat case are made on-site. I highly recommend the Buffalo Chicken sausages -- delish!

Good produce section - most everything is good and lasts until you eat it. (I.e. you will eat what you pay for). Be careful with other items - some can be pricey . (Still miss New-Pi / Wheatsfield)

Pricey but great selection. I recommend the salad bar ! Also the new perk of using my amazon prime membership saved me a couple bucks!

WFM may be a corp, but each store is community oriented. All donations go to local charities and carries items from 31 Iowa vendors and counting. Lauren, proud member of WFM WDM Customer Service team.

This is the first Whole Foods in the state of Iowa. Although a little pricier than most grocery stores , the quality, and the selection of the food, is worth the extra cash!

There is every other variety of Clif bars here EXCEPT Coconut Chocolate Chip , the one I like best...what gives? Also, no fresh seafood or espresso bar...additional points lost...

If you bring your own bag they take $.10 off your order...and if your in the giving mood you can tell them to donate it and a charity will reap the benefits :)

$2 off deli sandwiches every Thursday! My favorite is the Court Avenue, but they are all delicious. (Go for the multigrain ciabatta )

I love venturing over to Whole Foods, but I always leave there feeling kind of "meh"... I think it's the employees at the registers...? Plus it's always a zoo in there no matter what time of day!

Extremely busy on the weekends, but their prices are just okay. Some things are cheaper than other places. Since it is organic those things may be a bit pricer. But the veggies look amazing!!

Only place I've been able to find Bison and the chocolate chip cookies are incredible

Love this place for lunch & general produce shopping! Such helpful staff !

Great place! Good selection of fair trade coffee and organic foods .

Best place in DSM for fresh fish .

Some items are eligible for a case discount . Really like yogurt brand X? Buy a case and save!

Thursdays are $5 Build Your Own Sandwich days! Sweet deal!

Great salad and hot food bar for gluten fee choices but expensive 8.95 a pound. If come more often if it were less expensive .

Des Moines 1st Whole Foods! I can't wait, it's about time I get a little taste of home around here :)

Great salads ...try the detox salad

Love the Cyclone sandwich on pretzel bread !!

Great selection of products.

Their buffet is pretty fantastic!

The Cyclone sandwich from the deli is awesome

You can sample any cheese !

Free bottles of water if you eat in the cafe .

Best flowers in town !

People steal your cart and then the workers don't help you find it

The service at the deli is horrible. Never adequately staffed. Not a one time experience......but the chicken salad is do good I put up with it..

Ridiculously overpriced and, frankly, does not have that exciting a selection. Trader Joe's beats this place hands down, despite being much smaller.

What a bunch of...well, you know...

I don't get what everyone is so whooped up about.

What's local about a corporation?

Whole Foods is corporate!!!

Smells like Obama votes in here.

Supposed to be a wine tasting but no. :(
