Whole Foods Market Walnut St - Newton

I probably spend too much time at Whole Foods. The quality and taste of everything there is exceptional, so I can't resist. It's definitely our family's preferred market. Their bakery department is outstanding!

Ordered a cake from them for a birthday, and I don't regret it. The bakery did an amazing job and yes the peanut butter frosting is *chef's kiss* Definitely will order from them!

This is a lovely restaurant with a well-stocked inventory. However, the tight aisles can make it difficult to move around during busy times. The prepared food bar, on the other hand, is excellent.

I only did curb side pickup. That was quick. Haven't been inside the store since the pandemic.

I usually avoid shopping at Whole Foods due to the upscale atmosphere that gives the impression you will end up paying more. However, after visiting a few times, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my bill was actually lower compared to Wegmans or Stop and Shop, and similar to Trader Joe’s, with some items even cheaper. They have a good selection of produce, including occasional deals on wild Maine blueberries in August and local seasonal fruits. While it may not have the variety and value of places like Russos or Baza, it still offers a decent range of products. The cheese selection is good, especially if you look for items with the "sale" sticker. They also have some keto-friendly options, although I would like to see a bigger selection of sugar-free/low-carb products. As for the negative comments about customer service, I personally don't see the need for much interaction while grocery shopping. Overall, it’s a solid option for getting your groceries and getting home to cook or eat quickly.
