Calm little market

Richard's had a calm, welcoming energy, playing some nice music. They had a wide variety of grains, nuts and candy to buy in bulk, with some being organic. They also had multiple vegan items that a traditional grocery store wouldn't have (green lentil lasagne sheets😜). The only thing the store was missing was fresh produce, but the place is small and you can't expect everything. Although the shop isn't entirely vegan, I think everything is vegetarian. The best health food store in Palm Coast!

Pros: Lots of bulk grains, nuts, seeds and candy, Hard to find vegan items

Cons: Some things can be a little expensive

Not the best, not the worst

Richard's Foodporium is a good place to buy bulk health food as well as niche stuff you can't get elsewhere. Nuts, granola, candy? They have it. Vegan items like cheeses, cleaners, cookies, and supplements? They have it. Although the overall selection is decent, most of what they have is not vegan, and much isn't even vegetarian. This can be a problem because, while some members of the staff are helpful and knowledgeable, others don't really seem to understand the vegan diet. I've had a lot of trouble in the past with items I buy frequently not always being kept in stock. I had to special order what I needed, but the staff member who took the order would often not put it in for several weeks or else order the wrong thing. I honestly couldn't tell you whether this is still a problem because I gave up trying and decided to only buy things from Richard's which I know are actually kept in stock.

Great for Bulk Items

Richard's is a great place to buy bulk items. I buy nuts, beans, dried fruits, spices, popcorn, rice and other items. It is a smaller store but it has many organic items that I can not find in the grocery store. The employees are always very nice and helpful.

Pros: helpful employees , many bulk items, organic items

Cons: smaller store

Favorite Market in Town!

I've only been here twice, but both times I've shopped, I couldn't have been more happier at what I purchased. This little, but intimate market is great for ANYONE who's looking to eat healthier. I love this store!
