The Wedge Community Co-op Reviews

I love that they still support a big bulk selection, which is much more intelligently organized than some, and their variety in general, is the best I have seen in any Co-op in the U.S.!

Such a gift to all of us, an owner for almost 30 years! Loyal for a reason

Parking lot sucks. Other than that I love the place.

The employees are the Best! They are courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable. We've been members for over a decade, and even though we've moved farther away, we still drive into Mpls just to shop here.

Great healthy selection and extremely helpful staff!

Good grocery store for organic and all natural goods. Always parking available.

I only go here when I need vegetarian premade food and bulk dried fruits, otherwise I avoid this place. It has the worst parking lot on earth and the weirdest layout inside.

Great local co-op. Vast selection of bulk products, food, and everyday goods. Many vegan and gluten-free options in hot and cold bars. Ground-nut soup had well balanced seasonings, a delightful find.

Love this place. They have everything one would need, always great discounts on food items & an awesome bakery/cold & hot deli/meat market.

Love me some co op. Lots of vegetarian meat options and tasty drinks

Love the wedge! Healthy go to always good and great green juices and smoothies!! Great staff too!

Great, healthy options to choose from and knowledgable staff.

Great grocery selection for natural and health-conscious foods, and very affordable snacks at the cafe.

For years, it's my favorite foods coop in the twin cities, but living in St Paul, I rarely make it out to here, frequenting MM instead.

I enjoy shopping in this small, local store. The staff are friendly and the store easy to maneuver.

The Wedge has a great selection of healthy foods and brands you won't find at a chain like Cub. I love going to the Wedge for organic mayo, all beef hot dogs, veggie burgers, chicken patties, organic celery (actually priced less than Cub) and sugar free ketchup. The service is great too!

Really cool Co-Op with great selection and staff. The parking here is an atrocious mess though. Prices were reasonable, and they had every cashier open getting customers through as fast as possible.

The vibe there was kind of snotty. Not the experience I was looking for at all.

Love this place for really quality food. I don't always shop here though because you pay a little extra for the great quality. Definitely a member though.

beautiful store, awesome selection, love the breakfast bar.

I love shopping at the Wedge when I have a short list. Great staff and good selections

My favorite co-op. Great selection and wonderful service.

Started producing less waste and the wedge was the only place where I could find bulk pastas and the widest variety of items for bulk purchase. You can bring your own jars or purchase from their selection. Milk bottles can be returned and bread has a cabinet like system so there are many types of bread to buy in bulk.

By the way, these fruit slices are ADDICTIVE.

Asked if they had creamed corn. Was told "this isn't cub". Directed me towards the cream and the corn TO MAKE IT MYSELF. It's a scheme to make locals pay more and for big business to profit.

Prices are bonkers. You're paying for a name brand and to be seen in your Vintage clothes and gauged earings. Only thing you're sustaining by shopping here is your social status. #slacktivism

They claim everything is local, where are coconuts grown in Minnesota? Applevalley? Didn't think so. I know Winona is warmer than up here, BUT NOT THAT MUCH WARMER.

Not to mention, "all natural" makeup remover I bought BURNS MY EYES. At least the cardboard box it came in is recyclable, confirmed by a big stamp on the front. #annoying

I do love this co-op. Very courteous helpful staff, and great selection foods, skin and everything else!

One of the best co-ops I've ever visited. I visit the local co-op in any city I pass through. The prepared foods here alone are worth the trip. Largest selection I've seen in a co-op for other grocery as well.

So-so selection compared to Seward or Mississippi Market. Often crowded and awkward. Some staff are great but many seem new and confused. Impossible to get in and out of parking lot on Lyndale. And perhaps the worst of all: you can't just grab a cup of coffee to sip while you shop and pay for when you check out. No, you have to wait in a whole separate line to order a cup of coffee from a drink bar. I usually skip the Wedge and drive to the Seward Friendship Store whenever I can.

Excellent for all your organic foods and even better when I saw all vegan foods there. I'm loving it! I will be visiting again and that's great!

The Wedge Co-op has led the way in supporting unionization, the store is bright and warm and well-stocked, the variety from basics to luxuries is almost breathtaking, and they're definitely doing a fine job of maximizing safety for both their welcoming and astute workers, and their customers....(neither of which they could exist without!)... during these pandemic times.
I love that they still support a big bulk selection, which is much more intelligently organized than some, and their variety in general, is the best I have seen in any Co-op in the U.S.!

This co-op grocery is one of best. The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming! Wedge believe less in pre-packaged foods, which gives me freedom of adjusting the size of each grocery item I am purchasing. It is like opposite to bulk buying without sacrificing cheap prices, I live alone so I tend to need less than average size. They have great plant-based options for vegan shoppers. Most fresh produce are organic, yummy and healthy!
They have a cute section of gifts and cards. I am often tempted to overbuy groceries and stuffs from this wonderful shop! They practice pandemic safety precautions well.

Miss the awesome hot deli bar, to go items menus whittled down. Service and store itself bright, friendly etc

Great place for real food and several cashiers working for fast check out

Quality goods but the prices are mad. Helpful staff and I appreciate seeing where all my produce comes from. But again the prices are often twice what even high end grocery stores charge.

I really appreciate the quality, fresh produce selection here. Bread options are pretty good too, especially since they offer a variety of bagels from three different local bagelrys.

Great staff excellent service and product is really good too.

Pricey, but a great selection of natural and organic foods. I love coming here to pick up lunch from their pre-made meals!

Friendly, cheap, great people that work there. Feels like your second home

Nice selection nice market but veggies were a bit Over priced since they are not the freshest. My veggies showed signs of deterioration when I made my salad.

Amazing redesign. Some of the best, healthiest, most arcane, cosmopolitan ingredients in the Twin Cities Area. Prices are great and customer service is second to none. Very convenient location right off of 94 for convenient access for those commuting from and to the Suburbs.

They went though a re-model and it looks really nice in there now.

Great store with lots of vegan selection and friendly staff. I really love their food and variety. That being said, I did have one mishap that was pretty annoying. I bought their ready to eat vegetable garden focaccia sandwich that usually tastes great. I just had one that tasted weird and half way through realized that it was turkey Focaccia. Not cool. I am a vegetarian and I feel horrible and gross. Please take care in labeling your premade sandwiches correctly. Perhaps consider using different color boxes for vegan and meat sandwiches.

So many healthy options to choose from! The produce is fresh and the staff are friendly. I would love to go again!

Great, clean and very friendly!!!! Always fresh food

Love, love, love this co-op!! My favorite smoothie in the whole world is the Green Emerald! You gotta try it! Newly remodeled. Nice flow.

Awesome foods... Fresh and great flavours from the natural organic sources

The Wedge Community Co-op is a friendly place close to home. Organic is a constant here and there is support for organic farming built in to the prices. I'm a member of the Co - op and that earns me a discount at the checkout. There's a buffet by the pound and a dining area with a view of the traffic on Lyndale Are.

Friendly, helpful, organic, variety, I always shop there.

Great location with parking and close t public transportation. Best Co-op in the area .

Sometimes I come here just to make a left turn into the parking lot.

Great selection, friendly staff.

A bit pricey, but the store offers a great selection of food. The sales are nice when you catch them.

This Co-op s hot bar is a rip-off! Lakewind s hot bar is a decent price. I want my shekels refunded!

Great for grabbing a healthier snack/lunch. Mmmm Tuna peas pasta.

Always great staff. So kind and knowledgeable. Good food that comes with great community.

Really has the feel of a neighborhood grocery store. Fresh produce, meat and fish, and lots of convenient healthy options. Some items can be pricey, but overall good value for money.

Great place! Clean, quality products, easy shopping, great floral dept.

I traveled 50 minutes to pick up some beef on sale that we were told had no limit. When I got there there was a limit of four, but the customer service guy took pity on me and allowed me to stock up for me and the other families I had come for.

I will be honest, I would give this place five stars if it wasn't soooooo expensive. Whole Foods prices with a good guy footprint, I wish its heart was open to those of us with smaller paychecks but the same political (let's face it, it is just that) leanings. Maybe a few items on special would have me shopping my conscience more.

I would give 5 stars but some things they sell here are really overpriced in my opinion and I feel like as a co-op they should work to make things as affordable as possible.

Now for the good things: they have the best eggs I ve ever tasted. I will never go back to non-organic, white eggs again. I ve learned that the ones with speckles on them and the darker brown they are, the better quality that egg is. They have a spot where you can fill up a carton of eggs yourself so you get to pick exactly the kind of eggs you want, and it saves you some $ to do it this way too.

Their juice/smoothie bar (although very expensive) is delicious and it s fun to pick out which boosts to add if you re getting a smoothie, though be warned that some boosts change the flavor of your smoothies. The cold-pressed watermelon juice in particular is also delicious.

You ll find many, many brands of food items here that you won t find anywhere else, which can be annoying since the Wedge can be difficult to drive to sometimes since it s so close to Franklin and traffic builds up over there often, but I ve discovered ruffle chips made out of sweet potatoes that are perhaps more delicious than the real thing (and much crunchier), as well as potato chips made with avocado oil, again very tasty (and avocado oil is really good for you). I think even the junk food that one can buy here is probably better than any junk food one could buy anywhere else!

The last thing I want to mention is their array of supplements, vitamins & minerals. For instance say you want some Tumeric. They have it in pill form, with many different manufacturers to choose from. They have Tumeric in its raw powdered form in Jars so you can measure out how much you want yourself. They also sell Tumeric in liquid tinctures that you can use to add droplets to your tea to help relieve pain or what have you. They have literally everything in every way and they just started selling CBD now in various forms too, like a balm that you put directly on your skin, a tincture, and several other items I can t recall off hand since those products are relatively new. They also sell so many essential oils it ll make you dizzy. They are missing Sweet Marjorim though, which is my personal favorite! Anyways I ll never stop shopping here. I didn t even get started on their pastries !

Love the local products and the fact that all in the store is pretty much a no-brainer to buy.

My favorite place to shop, largest number of organic options I have seen anywhere!

First off, the vegan soft serve is amazing.

The staff is also incredibly helpful. My family and I were there in the produce section looking at an odd fruit, a rambutan. The staff person cracked one open right there and gave us a taste.

Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent selection of organics.

Great alternative medicines, herbs, vitamins, organic products

Favorite grocery store in Minneapolis. Great produce. Can trust that everything is responsibly sourced. Good products for a reasonable price.

Good store similar to feel of whole foods but on a smaller scale.
