This is the smallest wholefoods I've been to (alongside Camden's store) If you're looking for their main selection, make the effort to go to the HUGE one in Kensington instead. But this one covers the basics, I thought they had a nice selection of vegan cheese and tofu/tempeh. Certainly good enough to do your weekly shop in! =)
A decent grocery store but this particular Whole Foods didn't offer any vegan pastries or muffins. They had a vegan rice ball that looked like something I would put out in the yard for the birds but that was the only vegan choice. In the US all Whole Foods offer many vegan options.
Pros: Fresh FruitA great place for vegan people in the heart of Soho, very near to Piccadilly Circus. actually the store is not totally vegetarian ( and neither completely organic), but it's possible to find a large variety of vegan options ( salads, tofu salads, calzone, rice salads, fresh cakes) to eat at the tables outsid or inside, or to take away in recycled plastic boxes; of course a very good choice of vegan food to cook too. Good choice of vegan, cruelty free and high quality cosmetics ( Faith in Nature, Jason...); there are also some vegan vitamins ( especially from Solgar).
Maybe the best food here: a lasciv tofu cheesecake made by Laura's idea, which should make people understand how useful tofu can be and how, actually, heavy and perverse cow milk is.
Located on a busy street in Soho.
Grocery store with a salad counter, self service salad bar and a cafe on the ground floor. There are a few small tables inside and on the pavement outside. A security guard stands at the door.
Super versions of food and cleaning products from your regular suburban supermarket available. There are some great finds such as wasabi peanuts and flourless absinthe chocolate cake. There is also meat there. Upstairs also has vitamins, homeopathy products, sports medicine products, quite a wide range of skincare and a small book/ DVD section.
I thought it was very reasonably priced so got a shock when the salad I packed came to nine pounds 48 pence. Salad item prices are labelled so you can do the maths.
Pros: Decent range of groceries, Lots of ready meals for one inc sld bar, poss chill here for a bit

I haven't been to the one in Soho but I've seen it from the outside and it looks very small - it's not a good reflection of Whole Foods Markets in the UK. The one you want to check out is Whole Foods Market on Kensington High Street - it's AMAZING. They have heaps of vegan bakery products upstairs, cakes and cupcakes etc, plus fresh sandwiches - not to mention all of the vegan grocery downstairs. And above the market itself they have a food court, including Saf (a vegean raw foods restuarant). Hope this helps.
