Excellent organic food selection as well as organic products. Highly impressed with the farm fresh eggs. Also bonus that they donate a dime if you dont use a bag

I loooove this place! Today I bought this vegan certified protein powder after having bought one at County Market that claimed to be vegan and it really wasnt. Amazing vegan food products and beauty supplies. Its a bit expensive but sometimes its worth it. Also, they constantly help the APL if you love the causes to help animals.I highly recommend it for people who are just beginning a vegan life since everything is well detailed and classified within the store.You will not regret! ❤🙌🏻

Great selection, lots of items I cant find anywhere else in town. Just recently discovered their selection of Thin Slim Foods Zero Carb breads and bagels. (No more lettuce wraps on burger night.)They have a great selection of essential oils, kombucha starter kits, and fresh baked goods. Service is always pleasant and welcoming.

Great selection of healthy foods and vitamins that are hard to find elsewhere. process are a tad high but worth having a local business that offers a wide variety of great supplements

Review №22

So many wonderful things about this store! I love shopping local and they have a surprisingly large inventory. Plenty of conventional items but also a great place to shop for those unique items that other stores may not carry. I follow a specific diet similar to the keto and Paleo diets and Food Fantasies pretty much always has what I am looking for! Also a great place to shop local for vitamins and supplements. The store itself is always clean and the products are always fresh. My favorite part is that I feel genuinely welcomed when I walk in. The staff is also very helpful and informative. Thanks Food Fantasies!

I have been going to FF for years! I highly recommend, ear candle-sinus option. Every year, I come down with a ear migraine headaches, which is pressure on my ear. All the wax that comes out of my ear is shocking! Chunk come out of each ear, we feel so much better, after doing ear candles. My sister whom is a nurse recommended to me years ago. Thanks sis! Great food, make sure u have about an hour to look around. I will spend money at FF.

We only go here as a last resort for some of our healthfood needs. Most health food items that we buy now we can get cheaper at one of the 3 major grocery stores in town.

Review №64

Only grocer in town to get good quality local brats and other meat, IMO. Would be 4 stars, but stock varies and they run out of things, charge the wrong prices, and carry expired goods from time to time. Its pricey but they offer specials now and then via a text club. There is a big section of the store taken up by supplements and vitamins, hair and beauty, and now candy and wine. Bulk offers are numerous for baking and snaking, spices and teas too. They have very limited hours on the weekend! Be sure to check.
