One star for the selection of supplements.
As a former Urbana resident I was taken aback by what I found when I stopped in for Synergy Kombucha.
The service was terrible, the young "lady" that sits behind the counter in the supplement area is bitchy, yeah, the one with long dark hair....
The cashier was half asleep and way hung over. He did cruise me though and that would have been nice if he didn't smell like a bar from the night before.
The bakery people looked at me like I was crazy when I asked if there were any of my old favorite Blueberry scones...the guy scoffed and said they made them only on Mondays.
I know times and places change.....
Strawberry Fields of the old days it is not. But they really missed the mark when they tried to re-vamp the store.
Im happy to see that there are many places to buy Synergy Kombucha in CU. And, local stores are carrying good organic and socially conscious items that could only be found at Strawberry Fields in the past.
I would think the current owners/managers of Strawberry Fields would realize that people now have a choice in CU, so good customer service and reasonable prices speak loudly when choosing a business to deal with.
My parents actually now go all the way to Arthur for better prices and great customer service. And order their NutraSea fish oil online at Bodybuilding.com for half the price with no attitude.
After reading the other reviews, I'll be checking out Common Ground on my next visit to CU.
As I close I wonder if their apparent arrogance, lack of good will and concern for the CU community, will allow them to read their reviews on Yelp....
