  Best selection of fruits & veggies organic or not, but luckily most are organic. Good selection of bulk grains/flours/dried fruits/nuts, 95% of it organic at competitive prices to conventional.
  Best of all is the staff, who will get you anything not on the shelves from in back, or order it.

  Locally owned co-op. All natural and organic. Carries local farmer's goods. Has a hot bar with breakfast and lunch options. Also has a salad bar and many prepackaged goods. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Also has a small area to sit and eat your breakfast/lunch.

  Great place to shop for grocery and grab a bite to eat. The parking lot is metered but I believe you can ask the register for a token. The staff is friendly and the location is very convinient.

  Poor selection of produce. Cannot buy single produce items like carrots - must buy huge bag. Produce frequently poor quality, especially items shipped from California. Store too small for number of shoppers. Parking lot too large encouraging more motor vehicle traffic. Dangerous parking lot exit where sidewalk meets parking lot. Cars frequently block traffic to let shoppers in and out of parking lot. Horrible outdoor seating crammed up against bike racks - cannot use both at same time, meanwhile huge section of view-blocking shrubbery (near parking lot exit where it meets popular sidewalk where there could easily be a safer seating spot to eat outside. Hot bar is good, but closes very early - around 5 pm. Bag-happy: giving out paper bags like its candy rather than encouraging shoppers to bring own bags (or banning cheap (paper) throw away bags altogether like Washington - this wastes tons of trees, money, and those paper bags rip frequently - what a waste! More could be done to encourage shoppers to bring own bags - but since I cannot buy single produce items, I go to Meijer instead where the produce is reliable - at least. Turn around must be too slow.

  We always visit the Grain Train when we are in Petoskey. It's a fantastic health food co-op store. And be sure to try their homemade Donald Fagan barsomg yum!

  Great source for local and organic food. Prices are competitive and they have a great deli and dining area with an astounding view of Little Traverse Bay.

  While not a huge store, it has a good selection. Nice produce section. Ckean. Easy to get around. I shop here whenever I'm in Petsosky.

  It's like Whole Foods North
  They know how to pack a lot of really good food into a small space. The staff is always helpful and friendly. We shop there all the time when we're in Petoskey.

  Small store with big heart! Healthy foods and friendly staff. Decent selections for a smaller market. Enjoyable shopping experience.
