Whole Foods Market

Once in a while we get something bad there… and they take it back quickly and cheerfully. Wish i could afford to do more of my shopping there, but if you watch what your getting you can get some nice stuff. And some things like almond butter and wine (bought by the very mixed case at 20% off) are the best deals around.

I only come here during lunch time at work to hit up the hot food and salad bar, I especially like that there is a lot of seating available for a dine in option. Everything here is delicious but of course a little pricey — this is why I tend not to buy the sushi but I have before and it’s so good!
One of my favorite parts about their grab and go section is the cold drink set, they are organized in different categories such as functional beverage, tea, water and there is a coffee bar. I am usually the first to pick this place for a lunch spot and the only reason my coworkers would say no is because we would go there every day for lunch if it were up to me.
Craft beer selection is also excellent, I’ve stopped in here on a Friday to bring a couple of six packs home before.

WF typically has the best blue, black and raspberries but, examine them carefully as often (like today) many with mold/​squished (which ruins the whole container fast). A bit disappointed

I dropped by whole foods just to get a drink. And I loved their selection of stuff. The cashiers are really friendly too. Will visit again when at the mall.

Love coming here for their fresh meat, seafood and produce. They have a great selection of organic products but of course, their prices are much, much higher than your average supermarket.
Tip: you can sample their fruits! Just ask a staff member from the produce dept. and they will be more than happy to let you sample it.
Also, you can return mostly any item even if used (with a receipt) for a FULL REFUND!

Located in the Bergen Towne center on rt 4 East.
This Whole Foods is much like every other Whole Foods. One of the things I like and dislike about this location is that it’s inside of a shopping mall. Right after food shopping, I can check out some of the mall stores nearby. But the bad thing about this is that the mall gets crowded everyday except for Sundays, but the mall stores are closed on Sundays.
The selection here is quite large and lately I’ve seen weekday specials for sandwiches. The sandwiches aren’t priced too bad at $ 5.
They have alot of organic and premium foods here, and there is a bakery and sushi area as well.
Expect to spend a pretty penny, as there aren’t many bargains to be had here. But in general it’s a good place to get things, like fresh natural juices, exotic candy bars, and dry aged steaks.

The Paramus Whole Foods is my go to supermarket in Jersey. I do other supermarkets but they don’t carry things like fresh Octopus, Pork Belly or the abundance of organic, vegan and non-​processed foods. There sushi, flat bread pizza oven, coffee shop, cheese section fish and vegetable market surpass any of the other supermarkets I know. Then to top it have they have Wine and sprites store, bakery, flower shop and a small restaurant in the store and the list goes on. In addition to wines they have dozens of the odd ball craft beers, hot and cold food bars
If you know anything about Paramus malls of route 17 and route 4 then you know what a pain it is with the traffic and people. But Bergen County has Blue Law which mean that on Sunday I can drive here effortlessly and get a parking spot that’s not a 1000 yards away from the entrance.
But if you the type that does not sweat it with traffic and parking then the other plus here is that this Whole a Foods is part of the Bergen Town Outlet Mall which has outlet stores for Century 21, Nordstrom, Gap, Bloomingdale, Nike, Tommy Hilfiger and more in addition to other restaurants and the other malls and major stores.

This place has everything. The only thing I hate is that its attached to the mall so parking and congestion there outside is a little
Nuts.

Spacious. One of the bigger whole foods I’ve come to see. Great of you’re shopping for a large family. I love their handmade soaps and different food items that I don’t see everywhere. However, it’s been over a year since my last visit. Unfortunately I find it hard to access food period, due to cost, so coming here is a very rare treat. I’m looking to be in a blessed enough position to eat on a regular basis, much less at this caliber: awesome atore and great snacks.

Parking can be a pain, but this grocery store is attached to a mall so that’s expected.
I only shop here for certain products and brands that I can’t find at other grocery stores because everything’s natural and organic here (aka REALLY expensive).
But I always come here for their boxed Lundberg risottos and The Republic of Tea’s matcha powder and I never repurchase them elsewhere!
Their staff is really friendly and helpful regardless of the time of day and their buffets are scrumdiddlyumptious, especially their Middle Eastern options lol.
All in all, I love this location!

This particular Whole Foods is wedged into a large shopping center, so it is really busy. Despite that, the 2 employees who helped me were both very friendly and efficient. The young man in the customer service was even able to seamlessly answer a few phone calls while helping each of us in line in a prompt fashion.
Food and beverages were good as one can typically expect at a Whole Foods. And as a visitor from out of state, it was great to see that they had a good selection of New Jersey and PA beers that are not distributed in my local area. Due to the well above average customer service, I will make a point to visit this WF again the next time that I am in the Paramus area.

Parking is a little difficult to find but that’s what’s expected of Bergen county. Other than this is my favorite whole foods! They have absolutely everything at this store! From homemade soaps, to my favorite oils, and the best buffet for lunch!
I usually start with the jerk turkey breast and move my way onto the salad bar. Their roasted squash is delicious along with all of their other veggie options. Don’t feel like eating veggies? No problem, they have mac & cheese, rice, roasted potatoes, and the list can go on & on.
Now for dessert… I love that I can get anything from fresh baked cookies, homemade icecream, or a delicious hot baked chocolate banana bread pudding. The possibilities are endless in this place. They have so much from you to chose from.

Came here today for lunch because I was craving sushi. Mind you, I don’t get these cravings often… I’m not a die hard sushi fan… gasp! I’ll eat it twice a year or so… double gasp! Keeping that in mind, I think their sushi tastes amazing; they even have brown rice sushi. Since I’m not a sushi aficionado, I rarely find brown rice sushi. Also, their spicy mayo takes the sushi to another level!
Sometimes I come to this Whole Foods for 2 weeks straight. Then I look at my credit card balance and reevaluate packing lunch. I’ll come in do a little shopping and grab lunch. The price is really the only con to Whole Foods. Generally, I’ll find the price hike mainly with their produce.
In terms of paying for their prepared food, the prices are actually decent. You’ll pay the same, if not more at restaurants nearby. I like their buffet options and their kale caesar salad – I was obsessed for a minute there. Its very zesty and I think it’s even egg-​free. Not 100% sure; i’ll eat it either way! The sushi was $ 9, but they have cheaper options. The kale caesar is also $ 8 — $ 9. At this point in time, that’s the price you’ll pay for salads anywhere.
I know this review is super long, but I need to agree with someone else’s review: everyone at this store is super friendly! Seriously, everyone!

This branch of WF represents its’ premium brand very well. My main issue is with the location; anchoring a mall filled with off-​price retailers like Century 21, Homegoods, Marshalls and others. High end and low end collide here — and the vibe can be a bit dicey — especially when you throw weekend holiday shoppers into the mix. Plenty of folks pushing shopping carts, baby strollers and buttons — often all three at once.
Weekdays are better for a relaxed shopping experience in this big &ss store. I prefer sourcing specialty items here rather than at nearby Fairway because the signage is better, the traffic pattern is smart — and the employees are pleasant and available. The raspberry mousse cake and their house brand Italian sparking water (6 litres at $ 6.99 all the time) are our standard excuses to shop here.
You pay for the quality of the WF brand — that’s a given — so I expect the best service and the best products. Most of the time this location delivers just that.

I love this location. While busy, the store is always neat, clean and orderly. They always have the items that are on sale. Food is always fresh. I also think the employees at this location are among the most friendly. They are always nearby to help if needed and are very pleasant. The guys behind the meat and fish counter are always eager to help and will cut, debone, skin, etc. anything you want.
The prepared foods section is always fresh and filled.
Checkout is usually not a problem here either. While it can be busy, the lines always seem to move quickly.
The parking lot can get busy since the location is within a mall, so I just try to avoid the masses in the front of the lot and park towards the back of the lot. It saves a lot of aggravation.

Why: I was already at the mall and I needed to pick up something.
Pros:
Huge Super Market
Lots of Selection in organic and local items
Great selection in Beer and Wine
Bakery & Prepared food section is amazing!
Florist is also amazing!
I love this place lol
Cons:
Everything is kinda pricey =(
Parking for this supermarket can get annoying on the weekend or rush hours.
Price: Can’t shop here all the time due to price point but great for novelty items that I want.

Sigh. Whole foods! Why are you so expensive? Or wait, maybe I am too poor. This is my go-​to place to get my protein shake (vega one), salmon (read somewhere that America salmon has a lot of mercury in it), eggs, bananas and produce of course.
This is a huge and a beautiful store. I enjoy the whole shopping experience here. Love their beers. This is where I bought IPA beers the first time. Been addicted since then.

The best whole foods I’ve ever been to. It’s huge and clean and they have everything I’m looking for. The parking lot is a bit of a hassle but it’s worth it.
The produce is great as with all WF stores. They have a great bakery stocked with vegan friendly items/​mostly packaged.

EXPENSIVE!!! EXPENSIVE!!!EXPENSIVE!!! Wait, did I mention it was expensive? Haha… this place is soooo neat and organized its impeccable! There’s no way I would be able to shop here everyday, I would be broke. One shopping bag could cost you a good $ 40-​$ 60! The lunch is amazing, tons of food to choose from, from vegan, to chicken, shrimp, salad, pasta, soup, bread, and even dessert. It costs $ 8.49 LB which is a hefty price, considering you can go to an all you can eat buffet and pay an extra $ 3.00 and be stuffed.
FYI– people don’t know this but you can grab anything from the shelf and ask an employee to sample it and THEY WILL do it. You can sample just about anything in the store that’s within reason.

Whole foods is good for supplements, specialty oils, organic produce, local produce, local honey, soaps, specialty/​organic alcohol, etc. I also like the food bar. I usually get there macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes. Unfortunately, those items weigh the most and a decent size box ended up being $ 16.39! If it wasn’t for leftovers i don’t think it be worth it. I don’t understand why whole foods needs to gouge people when the food bar isn’t even 100% organic. Be careful and choose wisely at the food bar. It’s a gamble on the pricing since it goes by weight. There was this one time I was in the mood to make a nice salad. I put really good stuff in it like like sprouts and liquid aminos. I didn’t finish it though and decided to leave it in my fridge. Couple days later I decide to eat and to my dismay the whole thing liquified!!! Sixteen or so dollars for liquified salad!
I should mention I don’t come here on the regular because I don’t want to be broke. But that’s the society we live in now. Pay less for the products that use chemicals, and more for the ones that don’t. You would think it would be the other way around. It’s asinine!
I go here when I need specific things or I have a craving for the food bar’s mac and cheese but other than that I tend to control my spending when I’m around that spot.
