Whole Foods Market in Newport Beach

This is a wonderful Whole Foods located I n Fashion Island. A large lunch crowd getting hot foods and take away meals. A lot of nice groceries, produce, seafood and meat! Highly recommend,

Wholefoods always have the best beer on tab. The bartender was so friendly and welcoming here. I live far away but will definitely will make an effort to stop by when in town.They have a beer for everyones taste and then some.

Love this store. They have a great produce department, and you could find hard to find fruit, like figs! That sounds silly, but its true. Figs are super hard to find at supermarkets. This store is always well stocked, and they have the best pizza here too! You can get whole pizzas or pizzas by the slice, and let me tell you they are absolutely delicious! They make homemade bread here, you could get sandwiches made, they have a whole hot food section, a whole salad bar. Its absolutely amazing! They even have a little seating area you can sit and eat. Dont miss out on this wonderful store.

First of all.. Im grateful for the healthy and quality options here.. crazy selection of high quality cheeses.. to dairy to meat and seafood.. outstanding.. secondly I have been to whole foods around the USA.. never have I experienced the level of friendliness.. helpfulness and kindness from a staff like the NB location.. to the manager. You are hiring right! Kudos 🔥

HOT BAR REVIEW…. This is specifically about the hot bar because the store is fine and a typical Wholefoods location.I have punished myself continually by going back and hoping things would be different… but the food is always old and horrible. I’ve had better tasting food at the Fiesta Hotel and Casino buffet in Vegas! That’s not a good thing considering that buffet is $6 for all you can eat. You can only imagine the quality you’re getting.I just spent $10 on a small piece of cheese lasagna that tasted like it was out all day. I previously had the broccoli and cheddar soup… then had massive diarrhea the rest of the night.Wholefoods! When I hear your name I think of quality, but this location fails to deliver. Do better!***UPDATE***Thank you for copying and pasting a generic response used on other unhappy reviews Wholefoods! It shows you really care… :-/ The photo below in 03/16/23 at 430p… that’s supposed to be vegan meatballs in chimichurri sauce! 🤮

Wanted to look inside a $30 product. Yes. I did. After putting $125 worth of hair and lotion products in my cart - I know, how snakey of me, looking in a product. A worker bee said to me “We don’t have any open products here.”You’re lucky you haven’t been damaged by all the horrible people destroying and stealing things, Whole Foods. I’d be the first to support you, but nah. You are petty against those you are not afraid of.Edit: December 2023So I do continue to shop here due to the fact that I like the location & I like to pick up my Amazon packages there.However, the males at the registers cannot say hi or thank you. They are completely incapable of this at WF NB. The women are able to greet & thank you for your business.Seems management hires males, who are breathing which is a very good thing. I want everyone to be healthy. However, they should be able to talk. At a minimum just a hello & a thank you.Do you all need my help in this? I’ll be happy to help the male personnel with these 3 words. I will explain to them the why and the importance of it. Then I will stand with them for several days at the registers and help them through this task. Let me know. THANK YOU.

When its the end of a long day on the road, this is exactly the level of Whole Foods I hope to find.Entire store is on point, especially the prepped foods section.10/10 would go again.

Weird layout, very limited hot food and cold food selection, and no tables located inside.

Not very busy, but aisles were clogged because they were stocking at 10:30 am. Early morning I understand but 10:30 made it seem way more busy and claustrophobic that it really was .

A REALLY GOOD STORE ! My wife and I have shopped at this location a few times since we moved to Irvine late last year. They sell a few very hard to get items on our must have list such as Creminelli Prosciutto Cotto ( Italian ham ) and a good selection of tasty Empanadas. Oh and they are the only local store that bakes their own Pumpkin Seed Ciabattas ( to die for ). On Saturday the predicted temp was 94F and we were going to do our best to avoid it somehow. After our early morning 20 mile bike ride to the Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve we freshened up and headed straight over here. UNDERCOVER PARKING ! There is a lot to like about parking our wheels out of the sun on a very hot day. OUR PLAN ! Usually we pick stuff up at 2 or 3 different stores on a Saturday but on this occasion it was ONE STOP SHOP in air con comfort. BUT FIRST ! We walked across the street from the parking lot and entered the store via the Back Bay Tavern entrance at 12.30pm. VERY GOOD FOOD ! We spent about an hour enjoying lunch....I even had a beer. Then we ambled over to the main entrance of the store to grab a shopping cart. First up I nailed a large fresh squeezed orange juice...not cheap but its pretty good. While my wife picked out our needs in fresh produce I zipped over to BOOZE ALLEY. I havent been buying my craft beer at Whole Foods Market for some time but this particular store had enough to keep me interested...and after all it was one stop shop day to beat the heat. I ran into Jose the bartender from the Back Bay Tavern ( where we had lunch earlier ) loading up the beer fridge and he was a great help when I asked him about an unfamiliar craft beer brand. I selected 1 x 4 pack of Common Space Brewery Hike More Hazy Hazy IPA, 1 x 4 pack of La Chouffe Belgian Blonde Ale and 1 x 6 pack of Dust Bowl Brewing Hops Of Wrath IPA. ITS ALL GOOD ! I also nabbed a large Crystal Geyser Natural Alpine Spring Water. I then headed way over the other side and picked out 1 x 2 pack of Corn Con Queso Empanadas and 1 x 2 pack of Poblano Cheese Empanadas ( a new one ). WOW...they were discounted by 20% and another 10% with our PRIME MEMBERSHIP. On the way I grabbed a couple of La Colombe Coffee Double Draft Lattes. In the meantime my wife had loaded up our shopping cart with a 4 pack of La Brea Bakery Torta rolls, Creminelli pepperoni salami minis, Alafi good soap, frozen Barramundi ( ON SALE ), Applegate salami sticks, hot Italian pork sausage, black figs, Hukitchen choc coated cashews, Royal Star papaya, Raos fettuccine pasta, bananas, white peach, 2 x Cabot Vermont Seriously Sharp White Cheddar, Justin choc bars and sliced provolone. WHEW ! Last but not least I needed some ice cream. For some reason Whole Foods Market do not sell my fav Haagen-Dazs ice cream so I had a look for something special. It was Nancys Fancy Butterscotch Budino with a Carmel Rosemary Swirl......it was darn delicious too. THATS ALL FOLKS ! Very friendly service at the checkout !
