id: I have visited Harmony Farms a few times and appreciate that it’s an independently owned business. On my last visit, I was in extreme pain from a back injury and was limping. I had to sit in the book section a few times to deal with the pain. James helped me out that day. I had a lot of questions and thankfully the store wasn’t crowded. He held my items for me behind the counter. He didn’t know I had a back injury so when I was waiting in line to be checked out, I noticed he gave an ice pack to the person in front of me. I really needed one for my back so I just asked if they were sold there and he said they are given out for certain cold items. I asked if I could have one without telling him why - I was so relieved to see an ice pack that I asked without thinking. He looked surprised but went to the back and got me one and gave it to me at no cost with no questions. I would have paid for it. I was tearing up with relief in the parking lot and went back and thanked him. Acts of kindness go a long way. Thank you.

Dr Sarai Jones: So let me first say, I am so disappointed to write this review. Nancy and her husband have been amazing in the past to me. I am a regular customer.I have patronized this store for 4 years. And in my Psychology practice, I have referred my patients here for holistic health.I have attended and referred people to the Aura Readings that they have periodically.But today was the last straw.I went in today with my 8-month-old grandson. I was carrying him which restricted my hands.I asked a store employee if she could please pour me some dried elderberries from their SELF -SERVICE Herb Section.I needed help because I was holding my grandson.The lady who came to help me obviously woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.She obviously was AGITATED that I even had the audacity to ask her to assist me.She was so brash, abrupt and unwelcoming.Her body language, tone and actions showed she DID NOT WANT TO HELP ME.Because my hands were full, and I was carrying my grandson, I was trying to gauge the cost of the elderberries first.She reluctantly told me the cost.Then I let her know that I did not need a full pound.As I was telling her this, she CUT ME OFF ABRUPTLY and said " well we don't have a SCALE back here, so you'll have to wait until you get to the register to weigh.". And she proceeded as though she were talking to a CHILD....not a grown ADULT or customer.However, because she cut me OFF, she missed what I was trying to tell her. What I wanted her to know was that I wanted about HALF a POUND.And if she would has listened, instead of rushing me and brushing me off....I could have helped her gauge what a half a pound looks like.... without going to the Cash Register.This woman is more mature in age. She has grey hair and wears glasses. Thanks to her, I will not be returning to this place that I have loved. LAST STRAW.The FIRST Straw was 3 years ago when I sent my two daughters in the store to shop for me. An employee in the store followed my daughters around and made them feel profiled & really uncomfortable. Another customer in the store come out with my daughters and confirmed that she too had witnessed my daughters being followed in the store.However, the employee no longer works there.And at that time, I called and notified someone at the store of how my daughters were treated. The person apologized and assured me that wouldn't happen again.So I didn't cause any fuss after this incident, I continued to patronize this business. But I'm done as of today.No more free advertisement for Harmony farms from me.Very disappointed. Especially because I had a baby with me and really needed help.

Kendall T: The staff here are so knowledgeable and helpful. Great selection of natural remedies, vitamins, organic everything. A health nut's dream!

Derrick Adams: Always a great experience here!!

Al Bake: This is the only place I can find family sized jars of Sir Kensington mayo. The store is always clean and organized with fresh vegetables and fruits.

T Pep: Well organized and clean. Most of the produce was in pristine condition and this was on a Sunday. Lots of gluten free options however expect to pay much more for some things you can get at Food Lion or Harris Teeter.

Angela Giordano: They have a good variety of things you can't get elsewhere...... I just wish I had more money to be able to spend here.

grif tschopp: pretty neat place

Michael Bonventre: They have an awesome selection of fresh food and snacks by the ounce.

Tammy Northern: Morning

Teisha keister: Great store

Michelle Devine: Great selection

Maggie L: This was by far the best store I have ever visited. It was clean, well stocked and the customer service throughout the store was excellent! I highly recommend this store above all the rest!

Aminah Keys: Fresh produce! And we’ll organize. My go to grocery store.

Diane Scott: Short ribs were not short ribs. I thought they looked too thick, no marbling and the fat placement was all wrong. This was likely a chuck roast cut up into strips. Cooked texture was not right. The meat was slow cooked so the tenderness was there but the wrong flavor and texture. Very expensive pot roast. I'm having surgery Wed and wanted to have a good Sunday dinner before....

Graziano de luca: Great selection of supplements

velder2398: Nice store for anyone interested in supplements and organics. Nutritionist who works in supplements is very helpful.

susan williams: Good selection of fruits and vegetables. Bright store and friendly help.

Anita Russell: I enjoy shopping here all items fresh and still reasonably priced

Pat Daniel: Dangerous place to shop....So many great things to buy. I Love their seasoned meats and seafood.

skye creech: Best seafood at the best price!!!

Truth Davis: Its nice and quaint didn't have any plastic tops for to go cups..but the employees are great especially Ava always smiling

David Hertzberg: Eggs and Grits, $15 Morsel, Tasty, Yet Unaffordable.

yennifer betancur: Excelente

J.Étienne99: A very frustrating place. Not only the logistics and maneuverability are too tight w/rude customers, but slow customer service as well as store policies have caused me to reconsider my shopping options. Not only did I have to wait over 1.5 hours for the hot bar food to be replenished, the ran out of food and decided not to make a new dish! I was astonished. The hot bar food had been sitting for hours and the staffer seemed to not care nor notice the particular dish was running low and a new, fresh pan of food needed to be prepared.On another occasion, I made an order to pickup for the holiday and was informed the company policy had changed mid-week and now scrambling to revise and make changes. After loyally shopping at this place for several years, I will definitely be changing and going to Fresh Market in Cameron Village. The excuses given to me doesn't make since, considering they've always found a way to charge me in years past for the preparations but now company policy and laws have changed. While I can understand and respect corporate decisions, the 'reasons' behind it seem like excuses to just avoid providing services to the customers. You overprice food items to begin with, and though it appears all Wholes Foods stores are now moving in this direction, it doesn't make sense to honor orders made in past years because of ingredients, liability and pricing. This never came up in the past but again, this is what you get with corporate decisions nowadays! Lousy, not customer friendly. Will be switching my choices for sure. A former customer!

Corey Cradle: A bit more costly but great choices.

Robert Weaver: It’s a Whole Foods

Allison Halstead: I stopped in this morning to grab a couple things. While I was on my way to checkout I overheard two employees who were standing by the checkout, speaking about the customers. I work in food service so I totally get being frustrated or wanting to make jokes but do it in the back where customers can’t hear you.

Kent Johnson: This is a bad Whole Foods. Hot bar is bad

Mike Chan: One of the best Wholes food in Raleigh

Chris S: Thanks Matt W. for going above and beyond!! This has been my favorite whole foods for about ten years and its great to see it still have the same high level of customer service and cleanliness it had even ten years ago. Matt is the man!!

Steven: The selection is perfectly laid out here, I was able to walk in and locate what I needed in no time at all.The staff is so wonderful and just plain nice.I HIGHLY recommend this location to everyone.

MJ Worldwide: Highest grocery prices in the area. Average selection. Hot bar food is also average at best. My favorite thing here are the freshly made sandwiches. They start at around $10. I come here when I’m late for work and hungry. If I wanted expensive grocery items I’d pick the fresh market over whole foods aka “whole paycheck”

Chithra: Dated!

August Jones: I like whole foods as an option but to be honest it is way overrated and overpriced. Their customer service is mediocre. I don't think I have ever seen or spoke to a manager at the store, that could be good or bad. The prices for some of their groceries can be reasonable if you are a very particular eater but overall, this is not somewhere that I would go to fill my buggy grocery shopping. Even their "normal" items are expensive. Their hot food bar and salad bar has went from $6.99 per pound to $11.99 per pound in just a couple years. The price seemed to be increasing by $1 almost every 4 to 6 months. It is crazy. You can literally go through these Google photos and find pictures from 1 or 2 years ago and see the price difference, it has jumped!! I went to the salad bar and literally got a few ounces of fruit in a soup a cup, not even the size fruit cup you would get from Chick-fil-A in a kids meal, and I paid $6-7 for it. I don't understand the math and I do not think the scale takes off the weight difference for the containers that are used. One croissant from their baked goods cabinet is $2.75. The refrigerated family meals that used to be about $23, maybe even $25, are now $27.99. They do not look appealing, they do not have all of the same contents, and it's not worth the price. The family lasagna used to come with a half pan of MEAT lasagna, a large side of broccoli, four to six dinner rolls and I believe it was $24.99. They now slap together squares of CHEESE lasagna and throw in green beans. No other sides, no detail to presentation, no nothing. Not to mention the customers have the worst attitudes from how they walk across the parking lot to how they try to avoid eye contact while shopping. Very weird. Bad enough the employees don't engage with you, ask if you need assistance, or even say hello, but you can tell that they reaaallly try to appeal to a certain audience with their lack of mannerism and prices. Don't get me wrong, if you ask for help someone will help you, but there is no exerted friendliness or overemphasis on their customer service. If you like snotty customer service and even snottier customers, a lack of regular options and overpriced groceries then have at it. Otherwise, let's give Whole Foods a break. It hyped up.

D Hahn: Loved all gluten free and vegan options in the bakery!

The Reluctant Artist: Good stuff to buy. I rarely visit this location because I don't drive through this area after work

Xuan Zaukceda: Very good selection of organic products. Since is owned by Amazon the hot bar has decline food quality and variety dramatically.

Maria Cristina Lopez Camelo: Me gusta Whole foods Market, siempre regreso por productos orgánicos.❤️

Eugene Mongello: Over priced, mediocre service.

Robert Davidson (Mr. Jones): Whole Foods is Great. I knocked the review down bc of the very hateful lady that works at the customer service desk. This will sound like nonsense but it almost seems like she is TRYING to run customers off.She is probably the Most rude and hateful retail store employee I’ve ever come into contact with.She is - and was- rude to every person who walked up. Including me.Here’s the deal, I don’t like to judge someone on just one interaction. So I e waited and watched and I’ve taken mental notes the whole time. She has been hurting your store and your brand for far too long.So, to whomever the manager of this store is, here’s my “story”, opinion and suggestion. Please note, I’m trying to be objective:I don’t like saying bad things about any place of business or giving negative reviews unless they’re absolutely necessary.That makes this difficult. The store overall is great. That one bad apple is bringing your store and it’s employee morale -Down! I’ve watched it happen. That’s not what a successful store needs or wants or shows!!Over the last 6 months I’ve seen her. I’ve interacted with her multiple times. She is NOT a pleasant person and isn’t a good representative of your store or the brand overall.She’s late 50’s to 60’s with red and gray shoulder length hair.I witnessed her 5 other times be just mean and NASTY to customers. Why? Bc they asked her a question and she was quote “ready to go home!” Well today wasn’t quitting time and she did it again. This was the 6th or 7th time I’ve witnessed it - in horror- how many chances does she get? I was there today (4/21/23)at 7:30-7:45pm.Without her, the store will get 5 stars ⭐️. I’d love to come back and adjust this review msg.At minimum She needs some extra training regarding representing your brand and her people skills. I’ve never once seen her smile or say “Thank You, come back to see us.” Sure it’s not required, but it definitely helps and there are plenty of folks out there that can do her job and would appreciate having the job and interacting with your customers.At the end of the day, she REPRESENTS You and The Whole Foods brand. You and your store deserve someone who cares and is a positive reflection on your business. Your success depends on it.

Cleotis Johnson: Great place to shop!! Plus, they have the number one cashier, Ron. Ron is a true professional, friendly, and outgoingRon always makes you feel appreciated and performs accurate calculations during checkout....Promote now!!

Dianne E Branch: Always able to get what I need

Sherry Kornegay: Always great! I was looking for a particular item and no one else had it, I went to several place, I went to Whole foods and oop there it is... Or should I say was.

Olugbenga Akinlade: Satisfy

CD Upchurch: Excellent staff.Most produce is excellent, except for the Cuties brand bagged mandarin oranges.Most prices here are high. They especially like their dairy and cheese items which --although they are essentially comparable with dairy products at Food Lion and Harris Teeter-- they price dairy items $1-$2 higher at Whole Foods, presumably so they can keep these items for THEMSELVES!Priced for Hot and Cold Buffet items (entrées, sides, soups, and salads) are as high as if you went to a restaurant. Most of these items are fresh and tasty, but the last time I went, everything was much SALTIER than usual. Pick carefully because some items get dry and stringy under the heat lamps.Nice indoor and outdoor cafe areas.* Make sure you have the Amazon Prime app on your phone, so you can get your Prime discount at the register on selected items, because just putting in your phone number or your member ID number at the register doesn't seem to work like it used to.

Jessica Hildebrand: Not sure if it's just me, but the salad bar doesn't seem to stay refreshed. It still meets my need, but I used to crave it and now I only go bc it's the one place I know that still has a salad bar.

Diana Cameron McQueen: Everytime I come here it's worse. I don't blame the employees but rather the organizing management. One of my favorite things was getting the only vegan sandwich at the sandwich station. They curtailed the hours to when I'm never there citing lack of staff... maybe pay people more? Then I finally am at the store during those select hours but now they make you fill out a custom form even if you just want different bread. And on top of that they just don't have the bread (regular sandwich bread) Anymore. Just shut the stand down if it's that much of a hassle. Clearly the employees hate it and management thinks it needed to be tweaked.Other than that as one of the only major chains that carry new or consistent vegan items they always seem to be out of everything I buy. I guess this just isn't the store for me anymore.

darnell wilson: I have been coming to this whole foods for years than all of all of a sudden I go to get flowers and I asked the floral manager to cut them and she hands me a handwritten note that says $5 and tells me I have to pay the cashier $5 for her to cut them she must have lost her mind

Karen Spaulding: Best prices and qualityKnowledgeable Staff

Ali Williams: The best place to return for Amazon and get fresh organic.... skincare..😉

David Steiner: Great food. Very pricey.

Terri Jaskolka: Always clean and well-lit. Love to find my out-of-the-ordinary items here.

Stacey k. Alex-Owen: Nothing better than organic foods!!

Oak Miller: A good location

Uma Bala: The bakery made us 2 cakes for our year end Chess Club party. They did a VERY good job (given we were particular about avoiding fondant and they had to stick with buttercream). Their work rivaled some of the custom bakers in the area and at a lower cost! And as always, Whole Foods cake tastes yum 😊🍰

Nicole Alston: Highly disappointed with my flower order via Amazon Prime. Order canceled 22mins before my pickup time. It's been several days and I have yet to receive a refund.

SaraD: This is a first-class gourmet grocery store featuring a delicious choice of fresh, organic foods. There are options for ready prepared convenience meals or most all basic essentials to cook it yourself at home. They have a stunning floral department with on-staff professional florists. Their meat department features delicious red meats, fish, and chicken and always a friendly and helpful butcher to assist you. In the deli department, their cheeses and desserts are exceptional. They also offer a large selection of freshly prepared entrees, salads, sides by the 1/4+ pound. An excellent choice of wines are available along with several aisles of healthy snacks. It’s not cheap, but you undoubtedly get the highest quality here.

Gary Leider: I go here for things I can't get elsewhere, not for regular shop

Zayra Bustamante: Everything looks so fresh!

Christian Jones: Always good food, healthy choices.

Kelly Parker: Today was the first time I had to leave a review and I come to this store often 5505 Capital Blvd Suite 100, Raleigh, NC 27616 and the cashier there was not professional she was rude and didn't know how to talk to ppl if had her name I would stated it but it was Older white woman and the day was September the seventh at maybe 10.30am she needs to be fired and I only gave a star because I couldn't post without it

Das ShoPaRo: Super Helpful Staff & a good selection of product. However, since it's a smaller store you're not going to find all of the hidden gems of a product line here. Nonetheless you'll still get the essentials and some!

Jeane Gross: Love the Vitamin Shop! They have a great variety of Quest products, particularly the no sugar high protein bars and cookies!! Staff is knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.

Tarshia Pulley: Found exactly what I needed for a reasonable price!!

Dulce Mancebo: Buen trato

Nataly Rangel: I was looking for vitamin B complex and I found only one bottle of a trusted brand I buy from. After I saw that it was greasy I told the sales associate about it and she said that it was probably from another broken bottle from the box since the one I was buying was sealed shut. When I got home and opened up the bottle there was broken glass inside 😩.

Russ: Honestly, I didn't think it was that big (as others I've been to) but it was a good size. Staff was really nice and non pushy.

Rory Mackin: Staff was friendly and helpful. Not crowded and was in and out in just a minute.

Austin Barrus: I’ve been looking everywhere for a certain kind of Vitamin B 6 and they helped me find it right away! Great selection of products and awesome customer service!

Debbie Casper: First time shopping in store! Very helpful and full of information of where everything is in the store. Found coupons for my order! Great experiance.

Josh Paul: This is a great place for your vitamin and supplement needs especiallyif you are someone that needs liquid or chewable supplements. My only complaint is many times they only have one or two of an item instock. The staff is friendly and helpful as well. This was my last purchase from Vitamin Shoppe.

Matt Belcher: Absolute terrible customer service

Sandra: The staff was very helpful.

Lisa Munn: Very helpful staff.

Heather P. McPherson: Large vitamin supplements store friendly staff wheelchair accessible

Barbara Tillman: All your vitamin & more needs

Natalie S: Barbra was very rude, kept implying that we were stealing because we put back things she had handed us. And then made snide remarks about how we probably didn't put them back properly and how she would be looking over every place we had been in the store.When asking for my loyalty account made rude remarks about where my husband was from. We were the only people she didn't offer any coupons to, and we later had to return after being overcharged double on an item.Will not be coming here for next month's supplies.

Pete Rocks: Workers very helpful

MR CROOMS: Good service

Marissa Bagley: I just left The Vitamin Shoppe and had the most amazing experience! Kevin was super friendly and even more importantly knowledgeable. He listen to me and found products that fit my specific needs. If you're looking for vitamins or supplements I highly reccomend this place! Marissa his co worker was also very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be coming back!
