text: Whole Foods has been the best grocery store experience in the south that I have had yet. I am a former Wegmans employee and started working for the company at 16, so I never realized what grocery stores were like outside of that and when I move to Charlotte, I was unpleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed everything about the store. My first trip there I probably spent over an hour and half walking around and seeing everything they had to offer. Prices are fairly reasonable for what you are getting and not that big of a jump in the total bill compared to a Food Lion, BI-LO, etc. Loved the wine/beer selection and the gourmet cheese ( ask the employees to taste something if you aren't confident you will like what you are thinking about purchasing). The employees were so incredibly friendly, that I spent 15 mins at the deli just chatting with the gentleman behind the counter. Lots of freshness, great customer service and options in product. I am glad Whole Foods has touched down in Charlotte.
