PCC Natural Markets

Love this store! They have awesome vegan options! Tons of stuff in the bakery section! Just a little pricey.

We have been a member since 1986 and truly love the PPC stores. There are many vegan options available, the deli always looks fresh delicious. As a Vegan I am not a happy camper with their hotbar, too many cross contaminations going on. I do not understand why the meat items and non-meat items are always mixed at the hotbar. The staff is outstanding, helpful and accommodating to everyone's needs. The cooking classes are also great, wish they added more vegan classes.

This is a rock solid choice as far as HFs go. However, this place has made me consider what is a HF store nowadays anyhow. I typically gauge a hf by the produce section. The produce is great, though we toss way too many avos from here. Hit or miss with that.
But I take issue with the deli. On what planet is fried catfish health food? The deli is just loaded with animals. They should really consider placing vegan items together then veg then not, intermixing is nasty. I never eat anything from there myself, but it is indicative of a problem w HF everywhere, likely started by WF that others try to keep up with. That is that none of that food is healthy and the ones that are seemingly healthy get beef juice/ cow blood dripped on it or is otherwise inedible.
Aside from my peeves of the lack of vegan items on the deli it has all that and then some and most of the people are nice. The baggers could use some help not putting plums and tomaters with big cans to crush them, but that's everywhere too.
Ranting aside it is a really nice store, I go all the time.

PCC Issaquah is one of the larger PCCs. It has a nice selection of organic produce, much of which is from local farmers. They also carry hard to find vegan packaged foods, health and bath products. Their catering, deli & bakery offer many vegan options. It's a great place to grab a healthy, tasty, quick meal or to get a fully prepared meal for the holidays. This location also offers cooking classes, many of which are vegan.

This store was remodeled in 2010 to include eco-friendly elements such as recycled wood floor, interior paint with no formaldehyde and low VOCs, R-407a refrigerant, on-site food scrap harvester as well as many others.

The PCC does a great job of checking into the manufacturing practices of the companies whose products they stock as well as the quality of the ingredients that are used. They give more shelf space to those companies whose products are certified non-GMO. The PCC has a nutritionist on staff if you have any questions about your dietary needs or specific food products.

Nice store, nice organic selections.
