Wfm Coffee - Crossing

Decent sized store in Downtown. As well as the usual offerings of everyday vegan staples they had plenty of choice of vegan products in the chiller and freezer sections too. I was able to find Just Egg, Miyoko Creamery cheeze and butter, a wide range of plant milks and yogurts, faux products etc. Much better range than the nearby Trader Joes, Target etc. Prices are a bit on the high side but I expected that.

The Whole Foods Market Coffee Bar is a great option for your morning cup of coffee or afternoon pick-me-up. Several non-dairy options available including almond and oat milk.Item(s ordered: Small cold brew with almond milk. The cold brew is a dark roast, so smooth that I didn't even need milk! Very impressed with the tasty cold brew. Value: Prices are standard $3.75 for the small cold brew (honestly lower than average 2023 Boston prices...hoping they keep it that way! .Speed/service: Speed is definitely important when you're stopping by during/between work hours. There is only 1 barista (one time while in WFM I did see 2 , so it depends on their skills. My barista was quite swift! Be sure to avoid morning pre-work and lunch rush hours, as there may be a line.Parking: Validation for the parking lot is available at the register for visits under 1 hour. Ambiance: Located inside the Whole Foods Market in Cambridge St., the coffee bar is a counter just like the sandwich or pizza counter would be. There is a seating area adjacent to the coffee bar, with about 10 tables. All in all, its convenient location makes the WFM Coffee Bar worth your while. (Again, WFM, if you see this, please don't change the prices!

Always a good choice to take a box and fill it with your choices of healthy foods. Easy and fair price.

Lots of good options for grab go food and a decent salad bar. Meat subs galore.

Wow has this location fallen. everyone used to be wonderful. Not anymore. Today, the manager was walking around the store and cut me off when i was walking to the exit, did she excuse herself or acknowledge? no. Then she cut off an old man walking through the entrance! The poor guy was wondering if he could enter because without acknowledging him, she walked in his direction like she was playing chicken with him and then abruptly stopped and turned her body away from him so that she was blocking his path into the store! She was looking at something else but it was so rude and out of touch! the guy had such a frustrated look on his face as he walked around her. But the real reason I am writing is, WF never had great sandwiches. Like most of the Boston area (except Sam LaGrassa's), you wonder if anyone making sandwiches ever eats them, because they are horrible. So since moving to Boston I've learned to just don't order sandwiches. Panini, maybe. Burgers definitely. But sandwiches? Just avoid. That being said, post covid WF closed the salad bar so i was there hungry for lunch and just thought i'd give the sandwiches a try again and whoah, they were excellent. I had sandwiches in September and October of this year that blew my mind, had me purchasing ingredients so i could make these combinations at home. I thought WF had finally figured out sandwiches. This week, learned that was the wrong conclusion. Back to the sucky sandwiches. I've already had 2 that made me want to barf. Yesterday it was the tuna salad no less even people who suck at making sandwiches usually make a decent tuna salad, come on! So today I got their New England Cranberry Artisan Sandwich (it had been excellent in September October) and it is so bad I am ashamed of Whole Foods. The bread is excellent, the turkey is ok, but who made this spread? Ugh, gross. What happened? So I'm just going to have to give up on the sandwiches at WF again. So sad. So, without the sandwiches or the salad bar, what else is there?
