Pretty great sushi that is fresh and cheaper than other grocery stores . Plus, if they don't have one of your favorite rolls and a chef is at the counter s/he will make you one!

Carrie Nyden

Overall AMAZING store!! May be a bit expensive , but this is expected with quality. They have items that I can't find at any other store - Lifetime Cheese , Arctic Zero ice cream , & great wines ! :)

Chris Murray-Perry

Staff are always so pleasant. Check out the pre-prepared family meals. A great value when you're in a hurry and the salad is free!

Kitt Hod

The ramen bar in the back left (opens at 11am) is really good, for an easy lunch option.

Jordan Groseclose

Overall a good Whole Foods. Larger than a few others in the Triangle. More seating area for hot bar customers.

h

Wonderful bulk section ! They have matcha now!! Red quinoa is also an economical choice since its so expensive when buying packaged

Lauren Varkey

Get the Indian food made by Kerala Curry ! Local family and its so yummy! Try the chicken curry or veggie samosas !

Alan C

Wine , cheese , produce, meat. Bakery and pizza need help as does customer service. Long lines on many occasions.

h

Nice place to try prepared international foods by the hot bar and alternative meat by the penguin station!

h

Ask for the CRAZY SAUCE and EEL BBQ SAUCE at the noodle bar !! Savory and sweet goodness

Geoff Green

Sunday morning, when many people are at church , is the best time to come. Shelves are stocked, many checkout lines are open, but there aren't toothy shoppers.

Bryce Blaze

Fresh berries are always perfect here!

Michael Harrison

Hot bar breakfast . Iced coffee and one of the breakfast wraps (if they haven't all been snatched up!)

Joe Schwartz

Housemade banana pudding is great

Kristel Harlacher

Whole Foods is the only place I have been able to find acai purée for acai bowls--in the frozen section!

Bart Bartlett

Park around the corner past the jewellery store. Much less hectic. Don't buy wine here unless it's on sale. Prices are $2-3 a bottle higher than other local stores.

h

Vegan strawberry cupcakes back in season!! The best vegan sweets in WF

Brandon Rector

Ask at customer service to join the kids' club. You get a free snack with each visit and a birthday present.

h

Nice hot bar , able to sample w the sauce to go container

Ronald Sisco

Everything is good here. Watch out for the new marketing .

Jennifer Wyatt

My eleven year old thought the table full of unwrapped, freshly cut soap was a table full of cheese . My tip is to pay attention and not eat the soap. :-)

h

They have goddess dressing at the salad bar !!!

Alan C

Cheese , wine , meat, produce.

Jennifer Wyatt

If you are hitting the salad/hot bar , be careful of your portions. It can be more expensive than a trip to a real restaurant if you're not careful.

h

Best priced espresso in town

h

Nice selection of alternative milks like hemp milk .

Renee Dickens

Wifi is amazing here. Also, good breakfast bar . Stay away from 365 brands, especially.bottled water!!

Z H

Undercooked chicken , overcooked tofu and noodles , bland bland bland! If I'm paying 15 dollars for one plate of food, I expect it to taste like something. Terrible customer service, too. Zero stars.

Dan

Pushy customers but the staff is very nice.

Michael M

Try some market style bacon from the butcher 's case -- yum!

Jocelyn Salada

There's a separate freezer of gluten free breads , cakes , etc. A great selection!

Dirk Cotton

Penguin is one of the better everyday breakfast haunts in Chapel Hill.

Stephanie Reese

Best place to buy herbs and spices in bulk!

Dirk Cotton

Excellent chocolate croissants . Almost TOO rich.
