Hunger Mountain Review

Vast selection of all kinds of specialty foods, produce, local products. Great sandwiches made to order, too!

Great products, sweet s staff and wide selection of 802products. Pricey but living healthily is not cheap. Vermont isn't cheap either!

Decent beer selection.
Good Deli and hot bar.
Nice selection of cheese, bread and fresh fruits.

I love the local apple and booze selection here. The prices are a tad high for me, but the quality is unsurpassed in the area.

Amazing selections of health, beauty, and above all local food. It'll take you a few times to get the store layout and find all you need but staff and atmosphere is on point.

Good selection of local produce and products. Prices aren't bad either. However deli service is slow.

Great beer selection, decent cheese selection, a nice little grocery store.

Great variety of organic and non gmo. Awesome customer service

First time I was ever in here I am very impressed they have lots of fresh goods and stuff that you can't find that most markets. They also have good food here they make lunches and sandwiches and they have a soup and salad buffet.

Great place, local produce and goods, friendly staff, and yummy fresh food.

On vacation from Ohio, we stopped in to see what a co-op is all about. They had a very large selection of local products and locally made foods. Everything on the shelves and behind the counter just looked as though it was made fresh just minutes ago. The bakery items alone that we tried got us talking about coming back in the fall. If you are in the area, stop in! I almost guarantee you'll walk out with something new and exciting to try!

So friendly, and I love that I can trust products.

Great beer selection. And the prepared food is good also

A nice COOP with a great selection of organic everything. Some stuff is priced competitively, other stuff isn't. Of course it's more expensive than conventional items at regular stores, but compared to organic prices at the bigger grocer store chains certain things (like bell peppers) are WAY over priced. Generally speaking prices are on par with the organic and natural stuff at other stores. We do most of our grocery shopping at Hunger Mountain COOP, but there's some stuff we just can't justify the price of.

I used their bulk section for the first time and they have a great selection of items including bulk pasta.

Good stuff, high quality, expensive. They have a good selection of gluten free and organic foods.

A great local coop, good selection, a great place for wines and beers. I buy real maple syrup here in bulk - what could you need?

Unless you are a great deal richer than I am sales and the bulk section are the only items in the store that are affordable,this is Montpelier yuppy heaven.The grains,nuts ext in the bulk section are great

Montpellier's coop. Worth a visit for sure. Bread, meat, cheese, it's all there

Huge co-op. Nice staff, all the things. If you're on a budget you can shop here too you just need to pay attention. Organic produce, great local business

This co-op is so great there is such a great variety of food and the deli is so delicious and the employees are also super nice and helpful

Wonderful well-stocked store; knowledgeable employees who are willing to assist; great cafe area and great food!

So many good things come in bulk! Esp the spicy pumpin seeds.

Great place, once you fight your way through all the granola munchers

I'm with Mr. Parker on this review - Hunger Mountain Coop is wonderful. And if you need any help with special orders, ask for Michael White. That guy is awesome!

I like to shop here because the staff is unionized. Great deli and nice bread selection.

My place to get the best salad bar with organic and healthy choices...great selection of wines and local products in every department, great help from the staff and VERY knowledgeable in the supplement department!

Fabulous selection of local products! Pricey at times but you will get the best quality.

Amazing food, friendly staff and loads of organic grocery items. Love it here.

We've been shopping here for 4 decades, watching the evolution of this fine store.

Love shopping here and TRY to come between crowds-look forward to your expansion!

The place to go for the things you need to love a healthy life.

Good quality foods. The hot and cold bar have improved. I think they should find a new soup supplier. Same old soups not so great. I find the pricing really high. It's the most expensive place in town to buy a coffee. Strange considering a co-op is there to benefit it's members. One theory is that the co-op is prioritizing it's employee's over member benefits.....not sure of that but could be.

Best place to get organic food. Good collection of fresh vegetables and fruits

The hot bar is hit or miss. Some days it's great. If there's no meat I walk out (Hint: Tofu and kale is not meat). The food is delicious but seems a little over-priced.

This is a great place to find local foods, sustainable products, and to grab a bite to eat. They also do Catering and you can order things in bulk from them just by going to the front desk. The Cheese selection is well complimented by a wide array of craft libations, from wine to artesian ice cider to some rather popular local beers like Heady Topper.
Prices are a bit higher than at Shaw's for some things, but overall the quality is superior, and you can actually make a day trip to see many of the producers in person. (A great Idea if you have children)
There's also a great Membership program that's only $15 per year, which makes you eligible for some really good discounts on some of the very tasty, but a bit expensive for everyday shopping, foods. As well has sustainabily sourced/produced goods. Like PACT Cotton goods produced by women making a living wage in India, from sustainable cotton production methods. Another reason to buy is the cotton is extremely soft, and really durable.
Another thing about HMC is that you are supporting a community resource that actually keeps your dollars right here helping those in need every day. It is a way to do something good for your community as well as to get some great stuff that won't let you down.

Nice selection of good produce, ready made food, atmosphere and friendly staff.

Best, natural food, beer, hot and cold bar, and grab and go in the area.

They have great food - salad and sandwiches made to order and a nice room to eat over looking the river.

They have many items I can only get there locally. Love the variety, wish I could afford to shop there more!

Insanely high prices, but I guess if your a cruncher you'll pay their prices for your health foods!!!

There are many of us still working and when you open at 9 AM it makes it really hard to get what you need. Grocery stores need to open at seven or eight. Please.

There is no place like Hunger Mountain Coop ! It even smells good walking in the door. As someone with a unique vegetarian diet, I can find a great assortment of products even at the buffet!

Great store, lots of parking, knowledgeable staff, and great wine and beer selection.

excellent bulk foods, nice cafe with food to order or takeout or eat in, great selection of breads, organic produce, etc. Electric charging station in parking lot. Often very crowded on weekends.

Very nice supermarket, good selection of upscale groceries, lots of organic, local and fresh produce. Good food, a selection of soups, sandwiches and a bar of salads and hot options.

Great and healthy food for a good price, has pretty good hot and cold food bar with sandwiches and other such options as well as a nice cafe with free Wi-Fi.

Stopped in here on my way back from a trip. The selection of natural and organic food was superb, and there was an entire wall of by-weight granola, with something for everyone.

Prices are what you would expect for a co-op. That being said, any Vermont beercation should start or end here. Lots of the Vermont breweries in stock/on rotation. You might find some gems and not even wink at the famed heady topper. Too many good choices nowadays. Rest of the co-op offerings are good too, and local. Mmmm, cheese. Any flatty can feel like a crunchy vermonter, if only for a day.

Great hot bar/salad bar. I make it a weekly occurrence to stop here. Everything is clean and organic. Great place to shop.

Pretty rude, especially if you're not a "member"..As in the words of my 10 yr old daughter, "This place makes me uncomfortable, they're like grumpy pirates."

Great local organic produce and amazing locally baked breads.

As a member of the Coop for several years, I've become used to (and take for granted) the good variety of healthy foods it offers, as well as the friendly service of the staff members there. Lots of local products, lots of organics, lots of prepared foods and bulk foods. Good variety of useful basics, excellent cheeses, lovely local baked goods. Prices are higher than the chain supermarkets for some things, lower on the bulk items. Overall a great resource to the community.

Came here by coincidence. Absolutely loved it despite the high prices. If I lived in the area I d be a regular customer!

Extremely well stocked co-op, clean, good atmosphere, the deli is also excellent.

Interesting layout to their store makes it feel more crowded then it is. Friendly staff. Great and varied free samples.

Everytime I am in Montpelier I stop here! Great small co-op grocery store, and deli. Awesome place to stop and get lunch or some amazing fresh fruit and veggies

Delicious food made to order. I had a burrito again with pulled pork this time vs chicken. Lots of sandwiches and hot meals to choose from, including a hot bar. Good stuff!

A place I love to shop at. Not cheap, but well sorted, good prepared foods, nice little Cafe as well. Well stocked, knowledgeable employees, European flair.
