Riverwest Co-op Grocery

Never mind the nice little health food store, this listing should under Restaurants, because inside that nice little health food store is a great, but even smaller, cafe. It only seats about 10 people, so much of it's business is carry-out. Tucked away in a residential neighborhood, the residents have a gold mine of great mostly vegan comfort food. Visiting from Detroit, my friend and I ate there 3 times in 3 days. Everything was the best. One of the rare times that I will give 5 cows to a restaurant that isn't 100% vegan.

We've been members of the Riverwest Co-Op for a few years and between the cafe & market, it's definitely worth the membership fee. It's a small market but they carry a lot of variety in it. The prices are often a little cheaper than other places, plus you get 5% off of everything is you're a member. The staff is always friendly and it's well stocked. A nice little produce section, as well.

Don't drive here expecting a Whole Foods or Outpost, Riverwest is a very small, almost convenience store sized health food store. That being said, its still a wonderful place, where we were able to grab a few extra snacks for the road. They have a little bit of everything and a frozen section, too. You can do the tour in about 15 paces, but what they have is superb.

When I stopped at the Riverwest Co-op Café, I also picked up some snacks and a few other items at the Riverwest Co-op Grocery, which is the next room over. Anyway, they had a good snack and food selection [I had to check the whole store out ;)]. I felt that their prices were fair and that the people who work there were friendly and helpful, as I talked to them about Vegan things. I wish there was a place like this by my house!
