This compact but well-stocked natural foods market has become our household's weekly shopping destination, filling the niche for health-conscious grocery shopping without requiring a trip to Whole Foods. Store & Shopping Experience: The store's manageable size makes shopping efficient while still offering an impressive selection. Though compact, the layout makes good use of space, housing everything from pantry staples to fresh produce and household essentials. The dedicated parking lot is a major plus for quick grocery runs.

Bottom Line: For island residents seeking natural and organic groceries, this market is the perfect solution. It strikes an ideal balance between comprehensive selection and intimate shopping experience, proving you don't need a massive store to meet all your natural grocery needs.

Talk about great Vegan service & options 🛅 the prices are not even over the top! Absolutely love the neighborhood & seating options! Had no choice but to give 5 stars would give eight it's very classy! They got a translator for a woman behind me very quickly who spoke a different language and that was a great example of how to run a good business in my opinion. They have a great selection of sustainable everything from clothes to toileries. Very 👍

Alameda Natural Grocery is the hippest place to shop for groceries in Alameda. In fact, some peeps come from the "mainland" to shop there. As I entered the store from their parking lot, on the left was a bulletin board with information about music and children. On the right, there was a bakery display case. I couldn't resist getting a large crispy breadstick with seeds, jalapeno and cheese. I also got some chocolate chip, molasses, and oatmeal cookies--they were so delicious I almost ate them all before getting back in my car. They have a fresh fish and meat market where there is a butcher to make those special cuts of meat. Also, the animal products come from animals that are raised humanely. You can actually smell the fish before you buy (who wants to buy old stinky fish?) They have a wide variety of foods for vegans, and people on special diets, too. They steer away from chemically processed foods, including GMO. They have a beautiful selection of organic fruits and vegetables including the largest selection of fresh mushrooms I have seen in the East Bay. They carry just about everything you would expect for a natural food store. Something that surprised me located above their large selection of chocolate bars was some really beautiful large woven baskets. You can see them in my photos. I love coming to this store!

The Alameda Natural Grocery is an amazing market, also famous for keeping beehives on the rooftop. The classic old Ford dealership building is home to this market and several other smaller shops complementary of the grocery store. The people were friendly and very helpful. It was inspiring to see people as busy as their bees, stocking shelves as quickly as shoppers were gathering produce and more. ;)
