Pricy but unique health food store

Nature's Way has been around for ages, and they were a great option for when I first went vegan (2013). They were good if you needed something quick, as it used to be hard to find certain vegan foods in the area back then.

They are very expensive, but I do still enjoy perusing their beauty aisle now and then.

Pros: Unique finds

Cons: Expensive

Good for new vegans

Nature's way is a good place to start for people who are just going vegan, as there are many many options of vegan fair (frozen foods, boxed foods, substitutes, etc..) But be ready to pay. I started shopping here for substitutes when I first went vegan but soon discovered the stop and shop nearby had nearly everything they had at a much cheaper price.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Expensive

Quaint little shop.

Cute place to find random goodies. Pretty pricey which I expected so I don't stop here often.

Pros: cute finds

Expensive, but great selection

All of these stores seem to charge a premium for products that you can get in a good grocery store or drug store or vitamin shop. The people here are very knowledgeable and there is a pretty decent selection for most of the items you might look for in a place like this. You just have to know that it is going to cost you 50% or more above what you could get the same product for if you search around. Probably the upgrade in service and knowledge is worth it.

Pros: Selection, Knowledge

Cons: parking/traffic

Great Bulk Food Selection

Whenever I need anything in bulk, whether it's rice, herbs, beans, or banana chips, I go to Nature's Way. They have a great selection at fantastic prices. They also have pre-made sandwiches, wraps, and mock salads from local providers that are wonderful. As I understand that Nature's Way is a family owned store and that insinuates higher prices, the majority of the foods they sell can be bought at Stop and Shop or Shop Rite at a cheaper price. I am all for supporting your local health food store, but I only shop there for the bulk items and a very small amount of specialty items. The staff is very friendly (mostly young women, high school age), and I never have a problem finding what I need.

Pros: inexpensive bulk foods, abundant parking, friendly staff

Great store

I always love to support local businesses whenever possible because they are important to our communities. Nature's Way has been around for a long, long time. They have a helpful staff that is always willing to take the extra step when needed. It's prices are reasonable considering the size of the store (it's not a major chain so don't expect super deep discounts). Excellent selection of vitamins and food products. If you have the opportunity you should stop by.

Love it

I live in Stratford as well & shop here w/ my 3 little kids once a week. It's pretty cool and they have a pretty huge selection. I especially love the beauty section...just be careful and read labels because I've seen some shady ingredients on some of the shampoos, lotions and stuff. They also have a huge food section w/ frozen, refrigerated, boxed, canned, jarred and produce (sometimes some spoilage). Last but not least is the vitamin and supplement section which is staffed by 2 very nice naturpathic degreed specialists (they're always kinda busy helping people...last week my daughter and I had to wait like 10min) but it was well worth the wait because she patiently answered all of my questions and helped me choose the 3 products I needed. Definately shop here, prices are decent and everybody is kind and helpful!

Pros: great service, if they don't have, they'll order
