| - I am a fan of heathy living, and this was my first visit into a Sprouts store. This is a very nice clean store with beautiful produce, friendly and knowledgeable staff! Some produce which is difficult to find in other grocery stores were found here. For example, I was happy to discover lovely heads of escarole and frisée endive among the produce aisles, and a fair variety of sprouts! They have a butcher shop with an offering of freshly made bulk sausages (delicious!) and fresh meatballs in the packaged meat section. They have a good variety of bulk coffees however no bulk tea- I was looking for bulk black tea. They also offer a small variety of chemical-free cleaning products, which probably could be expanded.
Since it was a couple days before Christmas, I was astounded to discover the store completely lacked any kind of gift baskets, so I bought individual bags of pistachios, corn nuts, peppermint malt balls, etc as gifts, and figured out myself how to pretty them up for gift giving.
Also I was kinda hoping to find a fresh juice bar inside. There's a perfect space for it in the back, by the produce section along the wall where the coconut water is currently residing. The staff tells me that juice bar installations are planned for two other local sprouts stores but not this one.
As another person mentioned, I agree there is a smell (from the meat dept?) at the entrance only--it's probably a simple problem with the ventilation, but it is a bit off-putting, if you get a whiff of it.
