Whole Foods is a little outside of my price range, but I went, and found a few things that cost less than Star Market, and found a couple items I couldnt find elsewhere.Clean, well kept store (no surprise), and courteous helpful staff who helped me locate items.Even the fellow shoppers were polite.Mask protocol was as close to 100% as Ive seen anywhere else in town.So, overall good experience.

I came here to show my gratitude to Whole Foods Staff. I spilled one box of roasted fingerling potatoes when I tried to take all my stuff to checkout platform. The lady quickly helped clean the platform and the other guy took a new box for me right away without keeping me being embarrassed and standing. I wish I knew their names. Whole Foods definitely has greatest staff and has been my all-time favorite market! Thanks again!!! This is well done.

Great produce, and prices arent that much more than other places in the city. Not worth when living in a rural area where much cheaper options are available, but in the city it seems pretty good!

Dont bike here!I had my bike disassembled and parts stolen from their parking lot in broad daylight, and their cctv doesnt work. Their insurance offered me a measly $150 bucks although I lost $600 worth stuff. The offer required me to sign that I can never talk about the incident, so obviously I refused their pocket change, to keep my freedom to write this review instead.

Great place but if you look suspect youll be tested as so if you go late night or over night

Its def small compared to other WF. No restroom as well. Good that theres a parking lot tho

Chicken 🐔, 🍌 bananaAnd broccoli 🥦 is very fresh.

Small, organized for how small. Employee who was restocking asked if I needed help off top shelf. Very sweet.

Happy to have a great store location close to home with a great variety 😊 of healthy meals and snacks to choose from 😋 at a budget price without feeling you have wasted 😉 your time! I love a store that care for conscious customers who need good deals everyday!

Compact and efficient grocery set in a walkable location in central Cambridge. Its a reliable, well-stoked and attractive store with an array of options despite its small footprint. It seems like a great asset to the community and served us well in our brief stay in Cambridge.

Its ok and I like that its close by. So far, they have fresh meat and seafood! Then, I come across a package of cheese that have mold near the egg section.Its small whole foods store but Im able to get everything that I needed.

I like this place. In fact I love it. But not as much as the other one that has more or less a mini chipotle!

Used prime pickup. The order was brought out to me in the parking lot on time. People here are a delight to work with.

One of the smaller whole foods i have been to and is super packed on a sunday. i wouldnt even bother grabbing a cart because there are so many people and the isle are not wide enough. i find it difficult to walk around with just myself

Efficient and good selection in a small facility.

Organic food and good variety of products fresh

I used this Whole Foods store to provide flowers for my daughters wedding. We all were absolutely thrilled with the result. They provided table centerpieces, the brides bouquet, boutonnieres, corsages, flower girls baskets, and table greenery. It was awesome! The staff provided an order form and we provided an inspirational example picture of what we had in mind for the flowers. They, Charlie and others, did all the rest. You could tell they had put their personal best in creating the arrangements. It simply could not have been done better at any cost. And the cost was very reasonable. The bride was extremely happy and grateful for the wonderful addition to her wedding.

Very reasonably priced good esp in house brand

Whole foods Market is a great place to shop healthy, natural and organic. However Whole foods Market Symphony has some issues today with their strawberries.

The WORSE wholefoods Ive been to. The cashier was so poorly trained and completely lacking in any sense of customer service/orientation. As a premium grocery store, I find the cash is even worse than budget stores such as walmart. It was an extremely unpleasant experience and I dont understand how Wholefoods screened and interviewed their employees in the first place.OMG!

Got hatecrimed by some white lady outside this whole foods

Make sure you screenshot you Prime code before entering premises. The Prime app mysteriously doesnt load inside. And although phone number was already linked to Amazon account, punching that into keypad at checkout also failed.

Whole foods is too expensive and doesnt even have a good selection. Trader Joes is better in every way

So over priced😞

Really. NICE, folks there ( Very Helpful ) !!!

My wife bought a fresh 12-pound turkey from WF Prospect Street a few days before Thanksgiving. The bird cooked fine and looked good from the outside, but definitely tasted strangely unpleasant. We saved some white meat and threw the rest away. We got the white meat out yesterday and it smelled so bad we threw that out too. A true COVID Thanksgiving!

Pretty small older whole foods. Customer service is meh, hard to navigate, and the ramen I had for lunch from their pop up venue was not very good.

We bought pizza at the supermarket and ate it at front...

Very busy place, everything organic available.

They carry the king Arthur flour I use. They had the Norwegian cheese I was looking for. I tried the house-made sausages: excellent!.

Small....but uncrowded too at must times, which is nice. Avoid 4:30pm-6pm. Nice staff. Good-sized parking lot.

Good store. No dining place, but under the covid-19 rules it doesnt matter. Was a good option to purchase a good while on business travel with limited access to the local restaurants

They were giving us a hard time with returns

Its a fine Whole Foods. Well kept, clean, but on the smaller side of available Whole Foods. Still has a lot of items youd expect but fewer than the one on River St, for example. The staff are friendly. Parking lot is a bit small but usually you can get parking spot. No bathroom as far as Im aware. And no spot to eat (as it should be with covid, but this was also the case before covid). In the warmer months (pre-covid), there would be a few tables out in the parking lot for perching to eat.

Prices are high but you get what you pay for here.

Great selection, especially of organic foods. Price is a bit too high though, and supporting Amazon may not be desirable.

Just another whole foods store, a little bit smaller than the full size stores. No beer/wine on sale here.

High quality food and you pay for it now theyre part of Amazon its a marketing machine and a cash cow but Jeff Bezos.I just dont feel like making anyone else rich

One of the smaller WF stores. Has meat and seafood counter.

My shopping place of choice. Very good quality, friendly staff. Price in the upper level but as Amazon Prime member you get good discounts. Can highly recommend.

Nice, helpful people. Store is much smaller than the WF on Memorial Drive, with less parking, but it has a good variety.

I would give it a 4 star but I feel like the prices are a bit high. However they have really good food and they have a lot of vegan products that I cant find anywhere else. Its just the prices that keeps me from giving it a 4 star

This grocery store is much smaller than most whole foods. It is located out away from most of the shops. These two factors make it feel much more like a small community grocery store then the chain store it is. The small size of the store limits the number of items which can sometimes make it a little frustrating to shop here. In its favor, due to it being away from most of the other stores it tends to be less crowded. The store does maintain a nice selection of products in the space available. There is a small selection of kosher meat available. It also has a nice produce section and with the recent accusation by Amazon the price drops are nice. The store has reasonable hours that it is open and they do try to have events to reach out to the community around it. After shopping here for a while, you begin to know what to expect to find stocked in this store as compared to the much larger Whole Foods a little over a mile away. This store was the closet grocery store when I last lived in Cambridge and it was extremely convenient when I needed something. I still occasionally stop into this store on my way home from work.

Very polite staff, nice variety, feels local

The food is fresh and largely organic. Cheese selection is a go to. Added bonus is the prepared food, many tasty selections especially the breakfast buffet which works out to a good value.

Great location. We travel a lot. 8pm just in time to pick the last of hot food from the bar. Everything was great. Eggplant would be even better if cooked just a bit more. Love it.

The friendliest employees!! A great location for local residents, well stocked and a great place to shop for necessities and nice extras. I wish you could add a little cafe upstairs some how. I like the app for additional savings. Please dont ever move or leave this location!!!

With a much smaller footprint than your typical, suburban Whole Foods Market, the Prospect Street location delivers all the essentials in all the ways that matter. It also provides that small, intimate neighborhood grocery feel that you don’t really see anymore in the era of automobiles and big box supermarkets. It’s accessible by bus and is about a 5-minute walk from the Central Square stop on the Red Line. All in all, this Whole Foods serves its purpose, and this neighborhood, quite well.

Very helpful staff!

Small for a Whole Foods. I get lunch here a few times a month. The salad bar is impressive, but Ive gotten ill many times from products in their prepared food area. The produce is fresh and well kept, as is the dairy and meat sections. If they improved their food safety for prepared meals, Id give them a better score.

Of the four Whole Foods Markets I have been to (Charles River Plaza, River Street, Fresh Pond, and Prospect Street), this is at the bottom of the list.I. Personnel: I brought two rolls to checkout only to find they added tax to them! When I asked the manager about it, he went online and said they were considered separate items and should be taxed as such. When I went home and checked online myself, I found out that was not true. [Note: Since my encounter with him, they no longer charge tax on single roll items.] They also always, always, NEVER give you a receipt unless you ask for one. Why? Lastly, one of the vegetable men could not bother to find out the price of broccoli when it was not marked on the bin.II. My favorite bakery item is strawberry shortcake. Always make sure you check the bottom of the cardboard plate to find the date it was baked otherwise the whipped cream will be stale. The last time I purchased one, the whipped cream was fresh, did not have too much sugar, but there was no vanilla!III. My favorite Whole Foods is Chas. River Plaza. Great people, selection, and always fresh strawberry shortcake. I hope the new Somerville Whole Foods will also be good - and not have any of the personnel presently at Prospect Street.

Originally a Bread and Circus, it was bought by Whole Foods in the 90s. There hasnt been an opportunity to enlarge the footprint of what was a classic organic foods store (bulk and health foods; with some imported cheese for good measure). As a result, it is the size of a large specialty store, not a supermarket or big box store like many other whole foods. However, its location is a good neighborhood, accessible to several longstanding communities, means quality cannot slip.

AMAZING customer service

This is a small Whole Foods, know that going into this store. The hot food is limited and there are no tables. That said, the lines move pretty fast and they carry all the essentials and are usually very well stocked, even at 9:30pm. The parking lot can get a little crazy because the entrance is essentially only large enough for one car and pedestrians are everywhere. Its about a 5-minute walk from Central Station.

Great mini Whole Foods! The necessities you look fir in a Whole Foods. Parking was easy with a lot right near the front door. The bakery staff was quick to help and friendly.No public restrooms

Its a relatively small whole foods store but you will get the same awesome freshness as other whole food stores. Pretty convenient for MIT people as it is just steps away from Mass Ave. Prices are comparable to other stores in Cambridge. Not much you can save in here. But quality of fruits and vegetables is better.

Well located Whole Foods. Although it is on the smaller side, they still have most things you would need in a jiffy. Stuff here is really quite expensive, which is expected. It gets more crowded at prime oh-shoot-I-need-dinner hours, but the checkout lines move pretty quickly. Staff at the registers, deli, and meat counters are always kind and helpful. Produce selection is decent and fresh.Fun fact: you can go up to the deli/pizza counter and ask for bags of pizza dough to make fresh pizza at home!

Got some salmon (so called king salmon) over at this whole foods location and to my surprise this is what I saw when I opened the paper wrap: a grey salmon that would have gotten me straight to the bathroom if not the ER. Paid $30.5 for 1.1 lb. Note that I live 5 minutes away and walked straight home. Disgusting.

I like this place but many times if you go after 7pm the items are not restocked and obviously many items here are not in the range of price in my budget. I feel there are better chains which have fair prices along with quality

Quite a lot of rotten fruits today, strawberries, blueberries and others, covered in mold. Not a great sight.

Tiny store compared to the River Street store, but it carries a surprising number of products for the space they have. Off street parking in a small lot. The friendliness and helpfulness of cashiers varies here. Some are wonderful and friendly, while others can be cold and unhelpful.

Small, and no restroom

Great selection of good quality products. Most of the food is organic and always very fresh. If you are not satisfied with the quality of the products, they will refund you with no question. It is a bit pricey though but as they say, you get what you pay for...

The staff are always nice!

Worst whole foods hot bar of any location. No one is coming to Whole Foods for their fix of chicken tenders or ribs (there are better options elsewhere for this) which is all this hot bar seems capable of producing. Every. Single. Day. Food has run out by 7PM. No options for a normal meal (grilled chicken, fish etc) which is not heart-attack inducing comfort food. Beyond the hot bar situation its a Whole Foods and its fine.

Great walkable location if staying near Central square in Cambridge. Small but had everything we needed

Smaller store as it is “historic” as far as Whole Foods go but staff and customers are fantastic! Loved working here years ago. With the remodel a few years back the location is now much more up to date and warmer in the winter!

Very good attitude and atmosphere for Whole Foods definitely recommend although quite small

Thank you for the ready food!! Saved me tons of fast food and I really appreciate that! The Lady on the cashier today was friendly!!

Geat little wholefoods with an extensive range of products. Anthony at the cheese counter was especially helpful in ensuring we had the best cheddar to suit our needs. Excellent customer service! 😎

I stopped in to get a few slices of pizza. I was impressed with the selection and was very happy with my checkout experience. My cashier was personable and polite and she made sure to offer me rubber bands to keep the pizza boxes closed.

Nice place very clean, friendly staff, love it!

Whole foods is one of my go to places for groceries. This is a good location in a smaller venue with just about everything you might need!

Its smaller than the other locations in Cambridge so the selection of some things is limited. But they make up for it by having a very friendly and knowledgable staff. They offer helpful service at the meat, fish, and prepared food counters. A lot of the customers live nearby and are grateful for the convenient location with good parking. I run into the same people at the same time each week...its got a neighborhood feeling. Last but not least they have the Amazon pickup lockers which is a big time saver. I really enjoy shopping here.

Parking is terrible. This is the Fresh Pond area of Cambridge and its disaster traffic-wise and parking. But this is the best Whole Food you will ever go in your life. They have everything including organic free-range tinfoil at $8 a roll. Come here, get the lamb, and then eat all the free cheese samples

Great market that has been here for many years, even before Whole Food acquired this point. You can find many options and a great breakfast. Also, during the first Wednesday of each month they sharpen your knifes and the place constantly held events.Ps.: you can also lock your bike and calibrate your tire with their pump.

Their produce was fresh. And they had a great make your meal section with a variety of food. I recommend the chili

Nice little Whole Foods for when you need some quick groceries near Central Square. Theyre also open later than the other Whole Foods in the area, which is a plus for late-evening needs. Unfortunately no alcohol! Stocked items vary though - sometimes havent been able to find a yogurt or milk that I usually get from the River St shop.

Within walking distance of my hotel while on travel for work. A great find. Able to stock up on some salad fixins, always hard to get enough veggies when travelling.

Clean and pleasant, but Whole Foods prices are ridiculous for what youre getting, and there are always way too many people in this store for the space.Ive started going to Trader Joes more and more. I get similar products for at least half the price, if not cheaper, and Ive found no difference in quality on most things. You can take the 93 bus to get to the Cambridge Trader Joes if you dont have a car. Its much nicer!I will say that you can definitely get wonderful cheese at this Whole Foods, so if youre after some damn good cheese, Id say go here every day.

Protip: Most Whole Foods have bathrooms for the public, this one doesnt.Small enough for a neighborhood spot with the daily essentials needed for all of your various needs. It has a deli, fish, and produce, plus all of the other departments you are used to. However, the prepared foods or takeout section is a little bit smaller than others.Parking can be tight, so try to find it on the street on your way!

This fairly small Whole Foods is great if youre not picky about what you want to pick up for dinner. But, the limited selection means that for baking or if you have specific cooking recipes in mind, theyre unlikely to have everything on your list. Produce and meat are high quality, and the prices are what youd expect for Whole Foods.

This treasured independent holistic and natural grocery store (formerly known as Bread & Circus) is now owned by Whole Foods and now even more recently by Amazon. Even so, they have kept the independent vibe alive

I dont like all wholefoods but this is my personal favorite. Staffs are friendly and the selection is small but special. This WF kind of gives a local neighborhood grocery store vibe - which is very apt for this locality. I go there 4-5 times a week to grab a snack, drink or even get simple groceries.

They have a lot of stuff and staff is generally helpful. Sometimes staff will not know what they carry/insist that what I am looking for doesnt exist, but thats rare. On a busy day they run out of stock for some items very quickly.

Very unpleasant interaction with cashiers while checking out. Id misread the pricing for coffee and wanted to understand that difference.Maybe they are just overworked, but I left feeling very unwanted as a customer.

There are a few locations in the city. This one and the one on beacon Street (in Somerville) are the best. They are small, but the staff are very polite and helpful. That is quite different from those at the river side one.

I just moved to cambridge ma about a week ago. this was my first time shopping in this particular whole foods store, so I dont know my way around it yet. the gentleman employee who helped me shop was very helpful and courteous. I found what I wanted and then he rang up my purchases. thank you.:) the store is not far from where I live and I plan to come again.

You get a wide range of choices with food and grocery items. They also have a meat and seafood section. There is a deli section too. In summary a complete store. But it sells only organic items and hence can be a bit expensive as compared to other places.

Good food, clean convenient

Very convenient and clean.

Small, cramped store. I would encourage prospective shoppers to patronize one of the other Whole Foods in Cambridge/Somerville where there’s more space and better variety of products.

Disaster yesterday. I tried ordering online 68 items out of stock. I stopped in after 5 pm to Prospect street location. Ended up getting several items but not in the brand I usually buy. Short wait and staff seemed to be doing well

Great selection of Cheeses!

Excellent store with organic foods. It has free parking too. All employees are so wonderful with customers.

The bananas are only 49 cents / pound! So, it aint true that Whole Foods is really whole paycheck. The trick is simply to buy bananas and nothing else!

Thank you for the ready food!! Saved me tons of fast food and I really appreciate that! The Lady on the cashier today was friendly :)

Smaller than other nearby supermarkets. Very poor selection of fresh fish. Good otherwise.

Tiny, cramped, and no obvious restrooms. Compared to other WFs this one is lacking.

Expensive
