Good food!

I'm surprised over the bad rating. They always have a huge selection of things. I feel the prices are a bit high, but it is a more upscale type of grocery store I suppose. The service is always ok. I don't like buying meat from this place, it taste weird - but aside from that, everything else is usually good

Great location compared to Clark, NJ or Metuchen, NJ. Store feels spacious and like the old Whole Foods before Amazon took over and made it feel like a cross between a Shoprite and a Wegmans. Inside is a cute coffee bar and their cheese "shop" and "butcher" feel more like that than other locations. It's a nice place to shop for food you'll cook but other Whole Foods locations seem to have more prepared food selections. That being said, it's a solid store. My friend and I both like it here.

The real star of this place was Maha wonderful person cares about her customers this over work person deserves a raise. Since Amazon bought Whole Foods its like a dung beetle that has lost interest in its work. I went to the customer service after asking the butcher who was no help. I asked customer service if they could look in their computer to tell me where the duck fat was. The precious little one total me, they wont have any informatio. In their computer and go ask Maha (hence the woman appear to be the only that actually does her job). My overall impression of this and any Whole Foods is the following For the most part employees are lazy and incompetent employees too many standing around doing nothing except discussing drivel after what appeared to have had over dosed on edibles or something. Customers 6 deep with pnly 2 lanes open. No one has a clue of what is where the badda boom badda bing butcher clearly didnt want to work attitude "yeah we dont have it" .....Maha found it in 10 seconds. Showed the butcher, "oh we did have it". Also bought a single servicing of egg nog......it was spoiled..... Amazon fix this over priced under valued joke or selling or shutter it. Your customers deserve better.

Food for lunch, was feeling adventurous... 1 scoop kale and roasted garlic, 2 scoops of grilled squash (cut like pickle chips so like 7 pieces), 3 sweet potato fries (like spiers) so maybe 1/3 of a medium sweet potato and a very challenging spoonful or 2 of buffalo chicken nuggets. All taking up about 1/2 the space of their flimsy medium cardboard container. Sense it is Fall I wanted to round out my sample with some soup so I got 1 cup of 2 cheese broccoli soup to go with everything. I will add that I did not get a drink or anything else... of course Wholefoods being ridiculously over priced to begin with this didn't disappoint $19.60. again for the amount I got it was truly ridiculous but i was just doing it once so maybe one of you don't have to. The food was the worst I've ever had, even high school was food was 5 star in comparison. I ate the majority of the container but the soup was so bad I couldn't hardly stand the 4 spoonful's I did eat just to be sure, soup was trash before I got it. Service was average, I think the people are usually nice and the ambiance was clean and open but Whole foods just has very poor food for the prices they charge. Very disappointing store.

It was the WORST burger I have ever had. It looked promising however the taste did not match the sight.

It's always a pleasure shopping at a Whole Foods Market. Chimney Rock has one of the better WFMs that I've shopped at. It's the Goldilocks of WFMs. It's just the right size to get in and out of easily. I shop here at least 3 times a week to get my spanakopita swirls, cold food bar, hot food bar, and fresh squeezed orange juice. Bonus discounts are available as well if you have an active Amazon Prime membership.

They treated me (mixed) and my mom (black woman) very bad in the food court. Went in for a spinach and feta roll, already had to try to get their attentions because the people behind the counter were just hanging about and right away assisted a (white) woman who came after we did. I'm adding the races here for the record because the context is important. While the lady gets a panini I ask for a spinach and feta roll, the two people assisting us was an old white woman and an old white man. I ask for it to be warmed and get shot down by the room right away, literally at the same time the lady next to me asks for her food to get warmed and the man says yes to her. Already rude, but I figured she's just a cranky old lady and dismiss it. My mom was already pissed and I told her it's not a big deal, she's just being lazy. So I walk over to him instead when he goes to put the lady's food in the over, ask him if he could warm mine too and I get the "I'm BUSY" treatment. When I wait for him to put the panini in the oven and come back to me, he says yes to warming up my bread and puts it in the oven I presume (plot twist at the end: he didn't.) Then, the old white lady comes and starts lecturing me and my mom about how we are supposed to warm the bread in the MICROWAVE and the oven is ONLY for paninis. Her words, she exactly used "ONLY paninis" as if there's not a handful of baked items being sold behind the counter. Very weird, very rude. The man then tells me and my mom that we don't have a tag on the food, how we were supposed to get a tag on the bread to pay for it. We were NOT given one, so I don't know why he asked as if I crawled over the counter to steal the bread. He was upset at us not having a tag on the food as if it wasn't the old woman's job to weigh and label the bread ! He then ignored us when we were reasonably confused. Anyways, we got a different person behind the counter to weigh the roll and tag it for us, but it's very uncomfortable trying to get my mom not to argue with these people while getting disrespected by old miserable white people working at whole foods in their retirement ages. I genuinely wish them unwell for their rudeness, I hope they fall and break some bones. The roll wasn't even warmed so i had to get spitroasted by them infront of my mother for absolutely no reason.
This location would be better with self checkout lanes. The lines are brutal and often upwards of 15 minutes on even a Saturday evening after 6pm. Probably one of their worst locations in NJ

What a store and what a collection! If walking into a grocery store can give you a feeler of walking into a posh jewelry store, then this store is the mother of all. The last time we were in a Whole Foods Market was when I was in Minneapolis. To come back here and to find WFM look bigger and better was a great feeling. This place has the perfect ambience to offer for its customers and has all the space for them to walk around and shop. There are sections of the shop that support local businesses too. They have the best organic items you can find in the neighborhood and a cafe that looked exquisite. The checkout was easy and the staff were pleasant to interact.

I❤️Whole food market so much. This place really awesome. I would love to highly recommend to anyone who looking for a fresh organic food.??❤️????

Each time I visit this store it gets worse. Unfortunately for me this is the only "healthy food " store nearby. Within the past few months the food quality has taken a dive. I don't know if they have changed suppliers to save $$ or its due to a lack of manpower which is clearly evident throughout the store. The coffee bar and the salad bar are still closed. They tell you its COVID related but thats BS. They have no manpower beceause they treat their employees terribly. Why dont you offer them some Amazon stock or some form of incentive? My advice is start treating your employees better they are the life blood of your success.

Going progressively downhill every time I go back. Lady at the register coulo process a gift card so I had to pay out of pocket all this while she was whining about being too tired. (***** please keep that to yourself) The attendance at the deli bar are too busy talking to amongst themselves to listen to what you really want. This particular location has no hot food bar available the selection of grab and go Food is minimal and I was skyrocketed in price. The Home goods Selection is very reduced and they also remove the micro exhibition needs to have next to the fruits and veggies. These are all bad signs of the stores either not doing too well or is poorly managed. Sure as heck won't be going back here
