    Love how many healthy and vegetarian options there are! Wish I had more money to blow on the organic body products, they get a little pricey but totally worth not getting toxins and parabens in your products. The food was a pretty good deal and there were free samples!

    I love their Coffee, Juice and Smoothie Bar. I also enjoy the Deli area, in the back of the store! They have sandwiches, burritos and other food selections.

    Even though they don't have everything I get at a different, but similar coop, they have a nice selection. The best thing I've found this past year is that they carry the only non-aluminum, fragrance free deodorant that actually works, Kiss My Face brand. They also usually have a good selection of produce and other items I really need because there are a lot of things like Gluten, Soy, and Corn, etc. that I can no longer eat. Update Sept 21, 2022: they are now getting their fall apple selection in, and on sale this week. I got a bunch of really good looking honey crisp apples for 1/2 the usual price. They also had the beef sticks I use for breakfast and my afternoon drive, that I haven't been able to find for at least a month at the co-op by my house.

    This is a great place to stop and get something healthy to eat. There is a juice bar and smoothie bar as well as coffee. I used to stop here for Lunch when I was working for the city of Minneapolis. I had quite a few projects over the years in Nordeast. There are clean bathrooms here and a nice place to sit at a table and eat. There is a nice salad bar and they also make sandwiches and burritos. There is a great selection of Kombuchas. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

    We are so glad Eastside is in our neighborhood! It’s great for when we need something quick or forget an item we need. You can do all of your grocery shopping here but it doesn’t have the variety or some of the items that a standard grocery chain store would. We love their coffee and their hot and cold food to go. They have a coffee shop with baked goods right inside the store and it’s quite roomy. Eastside has great produce and a nice selection of fair trade + coffee beans and the option to grind them right there. Large bulk food section. Meat options are limited. I do not advise here if you’re looking for specific cuts of meat as they ‘have what they have when they have it’. If you are on a plant based or other alternative diet I HIGHLY recommend Eastside as your main grocer.

    I shop there all the time for organic fruit and vegetables. The people are always nice and very helpful. Then I usually stay and get food from their food bar or fridge or even have a coffee or/ and dessert. I love this place!!!!

    Decent hot food bar which can be so clutch when you need a last second meal but it’d be nice to see healthier options. They had something with shortening in it the other day. Otherwise it's a good layout, and if you're not familiar with the various Co Ops they offer almost anything you'd find at any other location but the fun thing is that each location (Seward, Mississippi Market, LakeWinds, etc) offers something different or unique and it's worth checking them all out. Eastside is a great spot and the neighborhood seems to really rally around this place

    I started shopping here right out of college and even after moving out of the neighborhood we shop here whenever possible. (That's after over a decade adding a wife and two children... ). Great staff, amazing produce, delicious deli/cafe, and the best selection of all natural organics around. My needs as a shopper may have drastically changed, but the co-op has been amazing throughout and for some reason was sparked to write a review today.

    This place is something special. They have a little bit of everything there. I love all the varieties of coffee beans, nuts, granola, etc. I also love the fact you can get fresh ground nut butter! The option of buying things such as spinach by the weight is also wonderful. I could go on and on about this place. It's just wonderful!

    I am always happy with the service I get from employees at Eastside Co-op, be it on the phone when I order ahead or in person. This weekend, I was especially impressed with Dominic at the meat department. He was the epitome of outstanding customer service with a wealth of knowledge. He said they were out of what I needed but recommended alternative cuts of meat, suggested best ways to cook it to approximate the taste and texture of the cut I originally wanted. Great listener, responded directly to my stated and implied needs and left me better informed with several options! Eastside Co-op, you have a great asset in Dominic!

    I've been going to this store since they open and we became a member. Great store and the staff are helpful and very friendly. You can shop here if you are not a a member too. Great produce and dairy schedule. I also love the bulk isle.

    Can't say enough about how much I love this grocery store. Great product selection, delicious deli and hot food, and exceptional service. Well done!

    I got the chicken burrito, which was awesome! Chipotle charges the same for one of their burritos, but you can't even compare the two. Also, kombucha prices were lower here than anywhere else I've seen.

    Called customer service at this location for an UberEats for Mercato order and the guy answering the phone just hung up on me. I asked him if they fulfilled UberEats orders to be sure because I was told in the past they stopped doing that, and he didn’t take the time to listen to me but made random suggestions that were irrelevant to my questions. I was so polite to him and he was so impatient to me and just hung up on me. Just so unprofessional!

    Amazing coffee cafe, deli and sandwiches, smoothies, handmade soaps, and more than expected at a co-op. Prices are what you’d expect but rarely does it feel like you didn’t get full value or more for the money

    Vibrant grocery store and I appreciate that they label everything with where it is sourced from. Street parking is fine depending on time of day. The coffee shop inside is bustling!
