We have visited several Wholefoods New York City locations but Brooklyn Wholefoods 365 Ashland location is by far our favorite. There is enough seating for dining and the extremely large tall glass windows allows light to penetrate brilliantly on the ground floor. The ground floor food court has several food and drink options, such as Next Level Burgers. The second floor, located downstairs, is accessible by using escalators or the adjacent elevator located on ground floor. They also have Amazon pickup station on ground floor.
Wholefood 365 prices are much more affordable due to the store mostly being supplied with Wholefoods 365 brands. A good majority of Wholefoods organic 365 brands ingredients and taste are just as good as the more expensive leading organic brands. I like the fact the overall pricing is more affordable. For example, I can get my favorite pre-packaged Clam Chowder for $6.00,where as, other Wholefoods locations are charging $8.00. Their in-house flat square pizza selections is the neighborhood favorite and goes fast! and for 2 for $6.00 who’s complaining. The in-house chocolate brownie with walnuts, is another crowd sweet favorite, for only $2.00. You can even order a whole pizza pie for pick-up.
Oh lets not forget to mentioned THE SELF POUR BEERS AND WINE SECTION!!!!! Yes, Wholefood 365 offers $2.00 off Happy Hours between 4pm-7pm. They offer Stout, light, hard cider, and IPA beers. Their wine selections are white, red, and rose blends. Occasionally the well known wine and beer selections may vary. Just keep in mind, anytime you want to drink at the Self Pour stations, a Wholefoods 365 Self Pour “certified” cashier has to reactivate your Self Pour card when you show your NYS issued ID or passport. The Self Pour card also has to be reactivate once every 2 hours which deters over drinking.
Most importantly, unlike the intense police and staff vibe in Wholefoods Harlem New York location, this location has a friendly neighborhood vibe from law enforcement, staff, and patrons. Wholefoods 365 location is less than a 2 minutes walk from MTA Atlantic Terminal, Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) and Fulton Street shopping areas.
