Urban Greens Co-op Market

"They need to bring back the hummus and roasted veggie wraps. Their prepared foods section has gone WAY down hill in recent months."

"I am vegan, and surprisingly for Providence, I find it hard to find vegan products at an affordable price. Urban greens has everything that I need. I also found the bulk section very very affordable. If you can, bring your own jar to fill it up. The only mild disappointment is the lack of variety of produce, the produce section is relatively small. I think I’ll make this my go to grocery."

"Since this co-op opened, I have seen it undergo a number of positive changes. There are things that I only get at the co-op: Wright's Dairy heavy cream and milk, for example. Plus I am happy to pick up a few items because I want to support 'Local.' As with any small and fairly new business I expect there will 'tweaking' here and there. The only thing I hope they work on is delivery. They depend on Door Dash and the fees/tips make home delivery expensive. Plus, they only have set delivery times. If you place an order when they open the store at 8am, the first delivery is not until 2:30pm. I normally have to take 2 buses to the store. On a day with decent weather or even rainy weather, it's not a problem to go there. But on days when the heat is brutal and unhealthy, delivery is the only option. I'm not sure how to rectify this; I'm just hoping they will look into another, more cost effective way of implementing delivery services. Until then, I will try to use the service only if I absolutely need it. Otherwise, I'll definitely continue to do some shopping there. The store is always clean, I see more variety. They are working with a limited space so I see them reconfiguring the sections periodically. I also don't expect the prices to be the same as a big store (where they buy in big quantities for a lower price point.) Same with organic foods: they are pricier than non-organic and smaller stores often cannot absorb that cost, especially starting out. I'm fine with that because I don't do all my shopping there. I definitely recommend the place."

"Always seems to be instock lot of stores lately have been sold out of everything but they never seem to be low on stuff here. decent sized store with almost everything you need. Has a huge selection of gluten free and vegan options which is great for when I’m shopping for clients. Whole Foods type pricing. Some things I thought were really cheap and others I was surprised at how much it was BUT a lot ended up being cute small local businesses which I think is worth paying extra for. Spent about the same as I would spend at WholeFoods on the same amount of groceries but it’s closer to my house and had less traffic at it. Check out was fast and easy even at 6pm (which is usually packed and takes forever at other grocery stores) Has a little salad bar set up with fancy olives etc, a soup to go station and a small hot meal to-go bar with like rice and fish and stuff like that (seems to be paused now for COVID) Safe Bike parking rack outside etc. nice medium sized market and i will come back"
