Never have a bad experience, love the products and people. Has the things I cant find at local grocery stores. Good vegan/vegetarian, clean & healthy eating options. Organic options are abundant, local is available too. Keep doing what your doing :) Im a customer for life.

This place has a soft spot in my heart ♥️ I used to visit every weekend for grocery’s but, since moving away, only stop by for various small things when I’m passing through Oly. It’s well worth a visit!

I barely wanna rate with any stars cuz religeous freedom isnt allowed for service.

Everything you would expect. I wish it was larger and carried more items. I make up the difference with Trader Joes.

Always helpful! The staff volunteer and do so with Passion and love. . . Caring for the planet 🙏

Great little co-op! Bulk section is well stocked, with a variety of local and regional produce.

Great people work here and the selection is top quality. Its pricey yes but well worth it when you know what youre after.

Really appreciate this store. Only place in Oly Ive been able to easily find Halavah. Its a European/Middle Eastern candy made from sesame seeds. Yumm

Ridiculously small store, customer service is horrible. They don’t make it a welcoming place, at least not the staff we have encountered since we moved here a few months ago. We love the Central Co-op in Tacoma and the co-op where we lived in another state. But this one, yuk. Only gave it 2 stars because it has some stuff we can’t get elsewhere in town. But we still shop the Tacoma co-op whenever we are up there because this one is a very unpleasant experience.

This place is amazing! They have so many local vendors and awesome organic/vegan options as well. Big ups to this place for sure!

Good folksExquisite produceNiman Ranch bacon + ham steaksAldens ice creamWatermelon....Lovely!

Didnt hate it . needed a mask so they didnt get my business

We love stopping here for healthy road trip snacks when we drive between Seattle and Portland. Seems like were always finding something new and delicious, too.

Love it! great place and great produce. definitely worth a visit

Great place to go. Amazing customer service. Best vegetarian selections. Loved their scones. You will NOT be disappointed.

Reminds me of a place I shopped at back home. Happy to support this local grocery! Thanks Oly co-op.

A bit spendy. but so much fresh veggies and fruit. Things you just cannot find in other places . Definitely recommend

Great produce. The freshest around.

They sell quality food that is accessible to everyone despite financial resources. A true example of social responsibility.

This place has the most consistent absolute best produce in the area! Great job guys!!

Love this place! Yummy to go / deli items. Fresh produce. Lots of local stuff and some more well known organic product lines. People are pretty friendly. If you can afford it, this should be the only place you need to shop in Olympia.

My ma loves this joint shes vegan

Its taken me a long time to get used to it. Still dont like that no one helps me out to my car, or pack the bags. Im old, and such things are difficult. Food quality is excellent, but very pricey

Great way to eat healthy. Lots of Organic produce and Local vendors. I Love the Salsa Jalisco, Its the only place I know where to buy it. I

Love our community co-ops!

Westside Garden center is my favorite. Store is a little cramped but they do a great job.

Very delicious, and fresh produce selektion. Alejandro was such a personable employee! Had a lot of fun shopping here for organic foods!

Great spot for healthy food and friendly service

Lots of items available in bulk and/or without packaging. Saves on plastic waste.

Super fresh, local, organic produce and a grinder for nut butters!

An eastside olympia classic. usually has bathroom but during covid idk. the westside put up a porta potty in the parking lot so maybe the eastside coop did too

I really like food co-ops! I think they are an awesome way to stay true to product quality and a better way to stay fair to the Farm/ manufacturer! Disclaimer thats coming from a person who pays $10 a gallon for farm fresh milk?

Its got a good bulk section and good sandwiches but the beer is WAY overpriced and so are the chips. This place could improve by carrying snacks and drinks that the people of Olympia can actually afford to regularly buy...

My grocery for all my food. Organic brings me there

I so desperately want to support local but the local distributors make it difficult. Saturday, I bought 4 nectarines, they rotted before they could ripen. I bought 6 lemons, couldnt fill more than 7 slots in my ice cube tray, normally 6 lemons overfill that tray. The bone-in rib eye steaks that we paid premium for - $21 per pound! - were not good. One didnt even have a bone, so we paid extra for something we didnt get. They were so horribly run through with fat, not like normal. A significant amount of each steak was literally inedible, could not be chewed. I havent had a chance to get into the other produce yet but I can say that I wont be going back. On top of everything, its $$$ expensive, more expensive than others that Ive been to - with less quality.

Amazing fruit here! Great store.

Go to destination for wonderful bread, fresh vegetables and many more delectable foods.

Love the place lots of stuff for a small store. I live far so I dont always want to come here

Had what I needed and everyone was masked up and courteous. Nice place overall.

The Co-op is like going to a fresh produce farm stand and more. All organic and produced ethically.

Nice little place but the staff was EXTREMELY RUDE... honestly expected better by a large amount. Disgustingly disappointed

Food is fresh and safety protocols are in place. Lots of volunteers work there! I thinks it is too pricey for things like fruits, cheese and prepared foods.

Great Organic produce and food.

I wont be coming back here. The had the odasity to tell my special needs 4 year old to cover his nose with his mask or his parents will have to take him out of here

Supporting food co-ops is the way to go! Big grocery like any other big business is terribly corrupt and robs farmers of every last penny that they can. If you like farmers, shop from them directly, a farmers market or Co-op. I like the people that work here, great organic choices, great bulk food section, no self-check lines to rob employees of jobs... PS, only jerks use self-check, if you value your job, dont devalue another persons job by using those ✌

2 locations and which are not identical. The garden store at the Rogers location is one of our favorite places to go for gardening supplies.They carry mostly organic produce, some grass fed meats, lots of alternative milks, raw dairy, etc. I have belonged since I moved up here and they even have a payment plan available to stretch out the very reasonable lifetime membership fee if you want to use that.They will order in items they dont currently carry if they can and they are open to input on what other items to carry.I wish they were larger size stores as I personally would LOVE to buy more items in bulk to save on plastic containers. I try anyway to buy from local farms and the farmers market when I can but the CO-OP is great for the things I cant find that way or during the off season.

This CoOp has an appealing selection of items from groceries -frozen, fresh, boxed & canned- produce -Rambutans! Fabulous Radishes! Purple Potatoes! Household, personal care, cosmetics, baked goods, bulk items, etc. People providing cashier, stocking, Covid19 related safety measures have been helpful in my experience. Clean and pleasant interior, decent parking. Not really a negative strike considering the quality of produce and other items, more a reflection of my needs: 4 not 5⭐ because of prices.

Good selection. Like anywhere you get your food from some things are better deals than others. Sometimes I like to go grocery shopping and not have to deal with a bodhisattva but thats probably my biggest qualm and it is at most a minor inconvenience.

Good organic products, reasonable priced.

A grocery shopping experience that balances convenience with local, ethical, and healthy sourcing. It has true community-centric values since it is driven by a cooperative.

They have a vegan potato salad. I think someone must have crush on me.☺Silly Co-op. I love you too.

Some great and tasty onions

Great place, great people, products & prices.

A true example of social responsibility.

Friendly people, great products, great place to buy food.

Really great place to shop with all its all natural food,no chemicals. I got some all natural soap made with goats milk for my girlfriend. I took a picture of the soaps that I got but its not coming up. I will post it later but this is a must stop place

Beautiful smoothies, sandwiches and handmade deli dishes worth every cent.Wonderful salad bar. The selection is comprehensive for organic, vegetarian, vegan and locally-sourced offerings despite the somewhat small building. You can find what you are looking for here. There is also a very helpful community bulletin board for low-cost rentals/house sharing and miscellaneous services/postings.

Needs a membership, but it is not a bad price. Plenty of bulk staple foods and spices. Bulk soaps and other cleaning products. Tons of fresh local produce and processed items. Mini salad and food bar. Lots of classes and local adverts for fair companies. One of the best choices we made this year in joining.

Most of the produce went bad before it could be eaten, within just a couple days. Their bone-in steaks were incredibly expensive and yet portions of them werent edible - and one didnt even have a bone. Its definitely not worth going back, which is a shame.

Good and friendly people

Great food, the people suck

Great selection and prices!

Always a great place to go to. Love their bulk sections.

Outstanding food, prices and people! The widest range of organics in town, gluten-free, vegan and free-range foods of top quality, mostly from local farmers and suppliers. I dont know how it could get better...

Service is excellent, choice for bulk is amazing- bring containers. Packaged foods are high prices. Need to be a member or become one to shop here. Great way to reduce your carbon footprint. Bring your containers and weigh them before you fill them [tare]. Take a little clipboard at the entrance and write down codes for items for checkout [produce, etc.] Youll meet all the local environmentally and socially conscious. Check out the boards outside as they have fascinating stuff. Salad bar rocks too.

I love this place 🥰 A store full of healthy good food and environmental friendly cleaning supplies etc.

Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. A good Choice of products. Good prices

Wow! The Co-op Eastside is super clean and organized. The ripe bananas are beautiful yellow and pink lady apples are super sweet. Produce is washed and healthy: swiss chard, cabbage, leeks, spinach and herbs; Wide variety of vitamins and minerals on shelf displayed in abc order; Special imported olives and cheese plus assorted crackers. Wonderful ideas for a summer party!!

Best place to buy goods in bulk of anywhere I have ever been. Huge selection and the staff does a fantastic job keeping everything stocked and clean. I even get my laundry detergent and dish soap in bulk here and love the decrease in trash and recycling I make by reusing containers. While it can get crowded at times because it is a small space, everyone is usually very friendly.

I always get my coffee from the Co-op. They have the best selection and prices. Love the local vibes!

Honestly my favorite co-op ever!! Local delicious produce. There is a lot of work that has gone into making sure that the products they are selling are ethical and sourced well. They have an amazing bulk section and even empty recycled containers you can use if you forgot to bring your own bulk container!

Always enjoy my time at the Oly Co-op.I truly enjoyed the limited number of shoppers (20), I dont care for crowded, busy stores. Usually the Co-op is crowded, why, because they have the highest quality organic prodice in town.

Friendly workers, available parking, fresh produce, wide variety of lunch foods.

Great place for that kefir and kefir grains!

I appreciate buying local, however some of these items you can buy for less than half the price else where. The local bread however is a great option because of the wider local selection. If you need help paying for these items you can always volunteer and get a discount.

$$$ super over priced on everything even with a membership... I still do 90% of my shopping here just because I think I’m getting the healthiest options available. Soups are always amazing, but super expensive! Good vibes, nice and helpful people all around.

My first time at the Olympia co-op and it was not great. We were told that they sell CBD cream here and so my mother and I went to see and we could not find it ourselves and wandered around and not asked if we needed assistance when obviously we did. We came up to a gentleman who spoke spanish and he tried to help us and found something similar to what we were looking for which was good, and then the cashier next to him tried to see if we liked a different pain relief cream but we had tried the stuff and told her no thank you. As we continued through the store we were stopped by someone named Kim who told us the CBD cream would be useless. She continued to tell us about CBD capsules that were only about $8, best deal you could ask for and then asked where the pain was. When my mother explained it was for my fathers back pain and her shoulder pain she stopped us and said the cream would not work. Use the CBD capsules she said oh and back pain CAN be from work but also from weight, 10 lbs in the front is 30lbs on the back. Eat less carbs, no wheat or flour of any kind, no sugar. You will lose 60lbs in 2 weeks if you do that and take the pills I swear to God! She continued to talk to us about our weight. It was down right RUDE! My mother and I are at a decent weight, perhaps this woman should look in the mirror before criticizing 😡..we told her we would think about it and she finally left after pestering us for 10 minutes. My mom and I dont even eat sugar!We almost just left the store then but we did not want to be rude and shopped for produce which was fine. But as we went to pay KIM CAME BACK. She called from her counter to the woman we were checking out with and told her that cream wont help them, take the capsules, I tried telling them! But I looked at her and told her my mother has medical conditions and she cannot take unprescribed pills because there could be side effects. Kim appeared annoyed at this and let us know by saying Oh well then she shouldnt take CBD cream either because it gets in the skin and can affect her anyway and comes out positive on a drug test! Her coworker said but it was topical but Kim argued that it would still get in the system.What I have been told is that CBD creams do not show up?? Only THC...and if it is that dangerous then why have it available unprescribed??? The cashier told us Kim was just a VOLUNTEER though and to not listen, thankfully. I wish I had said something to customer service but I didnt know where to as it was our first time in. Im not sure if we will be back, but that volunteer ruined our first experience and Im only giving 2 stars for the 2 workers who actually tried to help instead of calling my mother and I overweight when we are not. Very disappointed and upset.

They pack a lot of good stuff into a small store! Love to visit every time I am in the area.

This is where hippies are made. They are made from organic, cruelty free, locally sourced, gluten free granola. They generally have the best produce in town and are a good place to find ingredients the grocery store doesnt always carry, particularly in the bulk and spices.

Small but mighty co-op packed with fresh produce and vegan products you cant find everywhere. It took me about an hour to soak it all in. I love all the bulk products to reduce waste.

Great little food co-op with excellent prices and a wide variety of local organic items a great place to go if you want high-quality good-tasting food for reasonable price the parking lot can be a little tricky to get to sand do you have to turn into a side road first but once youve been there once its generally pretty easy to get back. The fees are incredibly low and so worth it its insane. The best place to go to get fresh peanut butter since they have it peanut butter grinding machine right in the store its pretty awesome

Unique selection of items, tasty looking salad bar, solid bulk item variety. Friendly customer service and helpful. large selection of natural, organic, vegan, and vegetarian options.

Great place for groceries especially if you are concerned about stewardship of the earth or the treatment of people that produce our food.

Where I get my critical-for-life naturopathic and homeopathic supplies. All in one. Need I say more?

I love this place. It is reminiscent of Berkeley back in the 70s. A great mix of people. All the food is throughly researched to ensure it is healthy. My favorite thing to get is the unpasteurized milk, extremely hard to find. Both brands of milk come from highly regarded sources. From the Jersey cows, what they eat, how the milk is handled and time to market. Again, love this place.

I was visiting from out of town, needed some things and prefer natural, conscious choices. Found this on Google Maps. It is truly a great example of how successful and friendly the whole, food co-op concept is and can be. Great store, friendly volunteers and staff. Really nice, varied and practical selections. Loved it!

Amazing produce, cheese, and meat! Rad bulk section. Soup, salad bar & sandwiches. Everything you need and want. Theyll do special orders. Membership beneficial, but not required to shop. This is a not for profit grocery store that has a mission and values, and builds community!

Sadly they dont sell pet frogs but still a great store

I was looking for a turkey. They have a bell you ring for help with that sort of thing. A very nice woman appears almost immediately, ask which type and size and she was off to find the perfect turkey. 20 lbs of thanksgiving goodness with help and a smile. Great experience.

A+++Wonderful selection for your healthfood or supplemental needs!!

Not only do I love to shop here, I also super enjoy the salad bar. Today was vegans heaven with a lot more options vegan than I expected! I was a klutz, I accidentally dropped half of my salad bar bin all over the floor!! Laura I believe, promptly reassured me that it was job security and to not worry as she cleaned up the mess while I was trying my hardest to help!! They all are so wonderful. 💕

Quick service.

Always love going there

Great, local and prices are wonderful. Just wish they would be a little more welcoming

I love this place. Staff are wonderful and being able to get organic foods in bulk is wonderful. The organic gardening supplies also help a lot. Great place to shop. Ive been coming here for years.

How can you not love the co-op?Ok so it is a bit expensive and they dont take cards, but seriously, who cares? The bulk selection is great. They have local/organic stuff. If they had beer and wine and were within walking distance they would be the only place besides Grocery Outlet I would shop.The East-side co-op is slightly nicer, slightly better stocked, and has a better bulk selection.

So as a vegan, often many areas are a food desert. The two co ops in Olympia are the oasis for this town. I have shopped here since I moved to the town, and it’s always been my go to spot for food and ideas.

I guess Im the only person who doesnt love this place. They have items that I cant find anywhere else which is great, but my problem is the staff. I have never had a good experience at either the Oly or Lacey Co op. I have never been greeted. I have never been asked if I need help (which I ALWAYS need help). I feel like Im being judged. Like Im not one of them or something. I just really feel bad after being there. Im racking my brain to try & figure out what it is that they dont like about me. I thought hippies were happy & friendly.

My daughter and I frequent the Co-op because they have the most amazing soup and salad bar ever. They also have amazing sandwiches. We are plant-based so this is one of our favorite places to grab and go.

There is a lot of healthy food options that you cant find at normal grocery stores. However the place is so small for how much stuff they have and how busy they are. I went once and left without anything because I felt very claustrophobic and Im not usually a claustrophobic type person. I also had my kids with me and we literally had to huddle in a corner until we had a moment to escape. I wont come back with or without my kids unless they sprinkle miracle grow on their building and it magically gets bigger.
