One Time… At Whole Foods…

When you visit Whole Foods in Vancouver…. you’ll get the whole experience. I have frequented this location a number of times and I can say with confidence now that I have consistently received excellent service. Here are some memorable moments.

1) One time at Whole Foods, I was torn between 2 different brands of lemonade. I approached one of the employees and asked if he had tried a particular brand. He said “no” but would be more than happy to open a bottle for me to try before I buy.

2) One time at Whole Foods, I approached a “sample table”. I had to wait for a moment as there was another customer in front of me. When it was my turn, the employee thanked me for my patience and apologized for the wait. She was knowledgeable on the product and even gave me cooking suggestions.

3) One time at Whole Foods… I was paying for my items at the checkout and realized that I forgot something. The checkout employee was pleasant and said she would hold my purchases while I go back to pick up the products. She actually closed the checkout and waited for me. Note: There was no one in line behind me and the other checkouts were not busy.
 
Stroll up to the bakery and the counter person can tell you almost all of the ingredients in any particular item. Visit the fish department, and the employee will tell you about the fresh oysters of the day. If you’re in the market for a juicy steak, go see the meat department and you will be schooled on cuts and kinds of meat that you never knew existed. 

Meandering through this meticulously kept store is like walking through a park. If you have time, if you’re in the area… take a tour though this spacious and well laid out grocery store…. it’s a pleasant and relaxing experience.
