Solid Vegan Product and Produce Selection - Edit

Visiting from Portland, OR, I had tempered expectations of vegan product availability in NH. Pleasantly surprised by their selection of national brand and New England-sourced local offerings (big props to Kingdom Kombucha out of Sheffield, VT 😋) kombucha, nut milk kefir, and kimchi. Cost is relative. Some local reviews may find the Co-op expensive, but the same products were cheaper here than I pay in Portland.

Pros: Variety of big brand and locally-sourced product, Fruit selection was fresh and plentiful , Friendly staff

Underwhelming - Edit

It’s a beautiful building, but their offerings do not spark joy. They are adequate for sure, and vegans will not go hungry, but this is among the weaker coops I’ve been to.

Also the produce section is in the back of the store, which I find incomprehensible and against the laws of nature 🫠

Pros: Attractive

Cons: Meager

hardly any vegan options - Edit

I have stopped here a few times. And always leave disappointed.
The only sandwich is a hummus and veggie wrap, boring, and on a low quality wrap.
The last time I went, the prepared deli only had a three bean salad, that looked very oily.
I ended up getting a Kite Hill yogurt, some fruit, and nuts from the bulk section.
Being across the street from the hospital. And nearby Dartmouth college, I would have thought more options.

Best local option - Edit

If you are like me and moved from an urban enter to rural New England, the absence of Whole Foods or other such grocery stores with plenty of unique food options may feel extremely constraining.
As a vegan for over five years, I have grown used to my Kite Hill cheeses, my One Degree bread, my Barbara's cereal, and a number of other products that regular groceries often do not stock. The Co-Op is by far the best local grocery store option around in terms of finding higher quality and more exclusive products than those at conventional grocery stores. There is not as much variety as in a Whole Foods, but Co-Op did have a lot of the brand products I purchase as well as a nice selection of fresh breads, fruit, and specialty gourmet products. I am especially a fan of how they sell spices and various grains by weight rather than in pre-packaged amounts.
Additionally, the staff is always very helpful and very friendly. Great store. Would definitely recommend shopping here if you're looking for some tasty food.

Pros: Sells more obscure products, High Quality Goods, Friendly Staff

Cons: Lack of variety, small

Diappointing - Edit

The Lebanon Food Co-op & it's sister Co-op in neighboring Hanover are pretty disappointing for vegetarians. The deli is almost all meat, the Co-op is a mix of natural food from Northeast distributors & regular bad groceries. Practically nothing is vegan, and the staff, though friendly, don't know anything about natural food or even what their own store stocks. [edit by staff]

Plus, the prices are insanely high. We joined because we believe in co-ops, but the benefit is a rediculously tiny refund at the end of a year. It has been hard to move to New Hampshire as a vegetarian, and the Co-op, which I was initially excited about because it's so huge, has been the biggest disappointment of all.
