We love Whole Foods. In pricey NY it's a great choice to spend a bit less money. Instead you get great taste and quality. And you save time too. I can mention kind staff and clean restrooms.

QUITE SIMPLY, THIS STORE IS A HELLHOLE. It is understaffed by a motley crew of underpaid employees who have no experience in retail sales, and, more to the point, have been given no training in retail sales. They are inattentive, unknowledgeable, and often simply rude, treating their mostly millennial customers as an intrusion on their time. Or more to the point, a herd of cash cows. There is no one in charge on a managerial level, just an endless succession of here-today, gone-tomorrow minimal wage workers who have no idea of customer service. I've lived in the neighborhood since well before this branch of Whole Foods opened, and I've seen the change in the business since its purchase by Amazon in 2017. The change has been enormous, and it's all bad.

Shopped here quite a bit whilst in Williamsburg. Such a variety of food you'll be spoilt for choice! Beware though you need ID to purchase alcohol. My 54 year old OH was refused his beer stash because he didn't have ID at the checkout. He quite obviously looks older than 21 but still refused. Wasn't happy. There should be some discretion on this when the customer is OBVIOUSLY old enough to buy and consume alcohol. Need to get with it Wholefoods Brooklyn. Wholefoods near Times Square never batted an eyelid, never asked for ID when we shopped over there but he had his passport just in case. Consistency needed. That said a great shop.

The most unfriendly and unhelpful check out staff in New York. Luckily there’s a TJ’s coming!

Love this branch of whole foods, has a good selection on the hot & cold food counters. Location is close to the East river so I usually make up a food box and take a short walk to eat by the river.

An expensive grocery store with products of good quality. Lots of prepared foods and a modest place to sit and eat.

Instead of the price I love the Whole Foods Market. The organic products, the place, the different tipe of beers.

They stopped allowing dogs inside. Prices went up recently - to provide more discounts to Amazon Prime customers. Bathrooms are password-locked, so you have to look for an assistant to get in.

I spend a few months a year in NY and so I visit Whole Foods Williamsburg on average 3 - 4 times a week during that time. I often leave in a bad mood because of the attitude of the employees. While some of the people at check out are extremely nice and will put you in a good mood - others - and there are many - will talk among themselves and not even acknowledge that you are there - no hello, no thank you and no goodbye. Yesterday when I was there the cash person refused to put my things in the bag and just looked at the ceiling!!! There is also a problem with the shopping carts. We're in NY City - not in the suburbs. We don't need all of those large carts - of which there are always dozens! We need the small carts!! The small carts go fast - but there are many more of the big ones. And they are not replenished quickly enough. Today I had to take a big cart. I was going in the same direction as everyone (from vegetables towards the fish), but several employees came in the wrong direction so I had to wait for them to pass. Not a word of thank you. Then another employee comes with a cart from way behind but wants to pass before me. After letting several people go before me I moved ahead before he got there. He made a face at me and didn't say a word. I've never see this sort of attitude by employees at a supermarket. The person in front of me pushed her cart very hard into the cart-escalator so it stopped. There was an employee right there. Without saying a word to all of the customers who were waiting she punched in her employee number and tried to make it move again. It wouldn't. So she just left. Not a word to the people waiting!!! Was she going to get help? Would it just be a minute? Nothing. Let me add to the problems... Today the herb section was almost empty. I can understand one or two herbs missing, but there were hardly any left. Bad stocking. I usually buy pre-cut fruit. Very often this Whole Foods will have non-ripe fruit in the container. Why do they do that? When the employee sees the fruit is hard and not ripe - why include it in the container? I must say I never have that problem with Brooklyn Harvest down the street. I've had it with the surly employees in this store. If there's not a specific product I need from Whole Foods I'm no longer going there and will go to Brooklyn Harvest on Kent. It's just not worth the aggravation of having to deal with bad tempered people when shopping and leaving the store in a bad mood.
