I would give 5 stars but the app won’t let me! Nothing bad to say about this place. Lots of vegan and vegetarian pre-made meals for $6-$8. They also sometimes have veggie sushi. And they have vegan bakery item such as cookies, brownies, and some cakes! There is a sandwich shop inside too that has a hummus veggie sandwich which is amazing and only $6. Highly recommend to everyone.

Heaven - Edit
This was the first grocery store that I started to frequent after becoming vegan. There are a lot of great options for vegans and vegetarians here such as freshly made deli sandwiches, locally baked pastries, breakfast burritos, pasta salads, hot soups, bulk snacks, etc. They also have a fantastic beer selection and stock high-quality, fresh, local produce daily. In addition, their grocery carries a wide variety of organic/healthy products.

Lots of vegan prepared food! - Edit
I always stop at Common Ground when I'm in Urbana.
Read moreThe cafe offers made-to-order sandwiches, vegan pizza by the slice, and hot soups. I love the vegan seitan reuban and the butternut squash sandwich is equally amazing (both can be made vegan with daiya).
I am totally addicted to the vegan scones. There is generally a whole-wheat option (my favorite) and a few "regular" flour options (scone flavors vary but are always delicious and often creative--strawberry-basil, banana-chocolate-chip, raspberry-lemon). There are also vegan cookies, muffins, and brownies in the pastry shelf area. Everything is always very fresh.
The salad bar has hearty vegan toppings like baked tofu and marinated gigante beans. The vegan prepared food usually includes hummus, chickpea salad (love this stuff), tofu "egg" salad, pasta and grain salads, potato salads, raw kale salad, vegan cold sandwiches and breakfast burritos, tofu quiche, and vegan ready-to-heat dinners (like tofu pad thai). Desserts include vegan chocolate mouse and pie slices. For a vegan who likes to eat and prefers not to cook much, this place is heaven! Prices are very reasonable too.
The produce is also excellent with many organic and local options and there's plenty of grocery items if you do want to cook (typical health food/coop selection). They also have a nice bath & body section.
Whether you want groceries or a hot meal, you really can't beat this place!
Pros: Very vegan-friendly, Cafe, prepared foods, baked goods, Excellent produce, complete groceries

Only place in town with gluten-free vegan pizza! - Edit
I love the co-op overall, but I especially love their deli and bakery.
Read moreThey have vegan baked goods and to-go food, as well as vegan hot food. I was surprised to find a variety of vegan pizzas available to order, and then I was floored to find they also have gluten-free options! Common Ground is the only place I've ever been able to have a vegan gluten-free pizza, and it was delicious -- packed with a nice variety of veggies!
My only gripe is that the pizzas are thin crust and probably 14" (I didn't measure) and run about $15 after tax, which is a bit pricey.
Pros: Vegan deli and bakery items, Vegan hot food to go, A few GF + Vegan items!
Cons: Price slightly high
