Sprouts Farmers Market

Last time I went to this Sprouts, there were 2 cashiers available and about 30 people in line. Finally, a third cashier opened up an extra lane and I jumped over to that line. I waited my turn and when I got to the cashier, she told me that I’d have to go to the back of the line because I had more than 15 items because she will not ring me up. I told her that I was not aware that it was an express lane. My pregnant wife and crying baby didn’t want to wait any longer and proceeded to the car as I went to the back of another line. I ended up having 18 items in my cart.
I think I’ll start going to Uptown Grocers.

Thanksgiving Dinner ordered from Sprouts is one to remember. The in-​store paper handout described it as having cornbread dressing and gravy and, of course, the order had turkey. It had a really appealing description for this Thanksgiving meal for, I believe for four persons. I picked it up at the store. It was in a really big bag with a zipper. It was impressive. The meal cost about $ 45. The next day was Thanksgiving. We had stored all of the dinner items in the refrigerator over night, of course. That morning, we took everything and opened their individual containers. The first was the «cornbread Dressing,» yuck. It looked like waded-​up, sticky, tan-​colored dough. It was horrible. The «gravy:» Well if was thick as mud. So what did we do? We trashed the two. The turkey was a breast, which was what we understood. It was cooked dry. So, what did we do? We threw the whole mess out. We did eat a Thanksgiving meal that day. But that’s another story. I wrote a very frank and angry letter to the store. There was never a response.

Half the produce was almost dead. This place is way over rated and super crowded. I had to leave due to them having absolutely no chicken. I definitely do not plan to return!

I love to shop at Sprouts! The Edmond and May location are the two locations I come to most often. The store is always clean although I notice the Edmond location is a little bit better (not being biased because I live in Edmond). I say this because the May location is way too busy and each time I come, the wait to be checked out is a bit overwhelming. If the store isn’t busy, they are steady with very limited cashiers. It can be a frustration because people are going to the express checkout when I have purchased one or two items and have to wait a ridiculously long time. Otherwise, I am always happy with the products. They are always fresh and available. The only time I ever experienced something being out of stock was when the chickens were on sale. I love the snack aisle they have. My favorites are the chili mangos and any of the trail mix.

Compared to the sprouts in Edmond, this place sucks. The people are still nice but their store, compared to the Edmond, is always lacking produce or the necessary meat.
I like sprouts. Just not this location.

The inside of this store is nice and clean. It’s laid out nicely and they seem to always have everything in stock that they advertise. It can be pricey but if you are buying produce and dried goods here it’s actually pretty comparable if not better because you are getting better quality. They have a great organic food selection here and it’s cheaper than Whole Foods. Good selection of the good natural foods type dairy and meat brands. Desserts, bakery, and deli case all nicely stocked with delicious goodies. This is a favorite grab and go lunch spot for me.
The parking lot is a nightmare most of the time. Ridiculous.
There is a bunch of natural /​organic /​essential oily /​alternative toiletry and skincare type items. There is bunch of vitamins, probiotics, and supplements. I am guessing that is where they make their money because some of the brands are marked up pretty high.

This was a nice market. It was like a small whole foods. Not much else I can say. They have a good variety of things to choose grom.

The atmosphere has always been depressing here. It’s as if the employees are miserable!
If I’m gonna pay big $$ for organic produce and goods then I’ll go to Whole Foods. Their customer service is top notch and everyone seems happy. I rarely go to sprouts anymore and as I walked in to grab a few items I remembered why I stopped coming here.
Won’t be back.
Oh…one more thing… parking SUCKS!

I go to this sprouts several times a week! Sometimes everyday.
The trick is go early or late at night. I don’t do crowds and I hate having to say excuse me a million times to reach for something I need.
They did change the layout and they made the aisles wider. which is awesome!
Great selection of organic produce and Nice selection of meats!
They have great sales weekly, and I love their occasional BoGo sale!

I will add two stars if you properly staff the checkout over the weekends. Sunday, ⁸⁄₉ noon was a 35 minutes checkout wait, it seems to be a pattern every weekend. The floor staff is always super helpful and courteous, so get you checkout crap together.

The idea of eating healthy and living holistically doesn’t always have to be pricey, yuppy, or hippy. Sprouts is a proof of that, while it is no Trader Joes, I highly recommend it to those who have stood afar and gazed longingly at Wholefoods like a Dickens’orphan with their nose pressed up a window to a Christmas feast. Yearn no longer, now you too can enjoy great produce, fresh fruits, quality meat, and much much more at an affordable price. The folks are down to earth, and it is nice knowing one can live healthily without feeling snobbish.

I shop here on a weekly basis and appreciate the good sales they run. I enjoyed it better as Sunflower Market, and some of the staff can be slow or grumpy. But they have a good selection of healthier options at reasonable prices. The store is much smaller than other ones I have been too, and it gets really picked over after the weekend.

I waited in the express checkout line for 20 minutes and there were only 3 checkout lanes open and numerous employees doing nothing.

Customer service is usually great. The sales they have periodically on gluten free items and produce items are not to be missed. Nice selection of food and health items. They offer vegan muffins in the bakery case. The Yelo tomatoes are awesome.

I am a huge Sprouts fan. They have all the healthy items that you cannot get at a typical grocery store. They also have a wonderful selection of coffee and fresh nuts. They have a fresh meat department with all the meat you could want. And of course a huge selection of vitamins, supplements, and protein powders.
It is great to find foods and products that are good for you and are made with clean ingredients. The one negative is that they are a little pricey… But I do believe you get what you pay for!

I’m not entirely sure who would read my Unilocal post about a grocery store… so I’m not going to discuss how many aisles have kale chips and coconut water (though a solid half a row is dedicated to coconut water…).
If you think this place is crazyyyyy expensive, there is a way to walk away winning! ALWAYS look the ad up on Tuesday and do your shopping on Wednesday, when both weekly ads from the previous week and the upcoming week are in effect.
When chicken’s on sale, buy extra and freeze it. (They like to rotate chicken parts so that tenders are never on sale the same week as thighs, etc…) Same with fish!
Get your Fage yogurt when it’s 5/​$ 5, not $ 1.79 each! Almond milk when it’s $ 2.50!
Hands down the prettiest produce in OKC– at least the prettiest produce that won’t cost your first and second born child for a bunch of spinach. (Not to name names, but Whole Foods.)
This place only loses a star because it used to be a happy field trip every time I went, but I’ve noticed in the past few months that the employees are progressively getting unhappier. I don’t know what their management looks like these days, but you can see how much their personnel’s attitudes have changed to ones of indifference and unhappiness. :(
Now this Unilocal review is ending on a sad note. :(

I feel like I play the vehicular equivalent of musical chairs when I’m in the Sprouts parking lot. Except there’s no music (or chairs, obviously). It’s just resounding expletives serving as the cue to continue circling around the parking lot until a spot opens up.
That aside… I like the store. The website is one of the more useful grocery store websites I’ve seen in recent times. And let’s not forget, reasonable prices are reasonable. Especially considering that Sprouts is catering more to the local, or organic crowd.
Asparagus for $ 0.98/lb? Boneless Chicken Breasts for $ 1.69/lb? Haas avocados for $ 0.48? «Yes please!» to all of the above. The produce selection is quite nice (and did I mention reasonable in price?). We also find ourselves buying coffee from here every so often. And other delicious things that I don’t really need but can’t walk away from… Those bulk food bins though… Sure, some items are pricier, but that’s where you need to research in advance, I suppose.
I keep running into people I know when I’m at Sprouts. So that’s cool too…

This sprouts is really small & adorable! All the other Sprouts I have been to are much larger, however, I really like that it is so tiny & cute. It still has everything Hubby & I like to purchase & its not as busy or expensive as whole paycheck.
It’s also the best main stream grocery store in OKC. I’m not in OKC much but when I am Sprouts & Chinatown Supermarket are my go to grocery stores.
Hubby loves shopping here during the week bc they carry tons of great things he can cook easily when I’m not around.
We both love the deli meats, prosciutto, panchetta, mortadella, & the salsalito turkey & pesto ham is the best! YUM!
They also carry a nice selection of import cheeses. He is a lunch sandwich king & I am more of a tea sandwich queen :))
He also likes to grill the Scottish salmon or grill their Grass fed beef & lamb into kabobs. He makes a simple yet killer Greek yogurt sauce on the side with their Greek Yogurt, persian cucumbers, lemon, mint, cumin & red pepper. Quick & healthy.
Simply Divine :)…
We also like to bake their organic whole chickens stuffed wit fresh lemon & thyme. Amazballs! :)‘
Sprouts is also the only place in OKC we have found Marzano tomatoes, white anchovies & Mountain Valley Sparkling Spring water from Hot Springs National Park.
This mineral water is really good stuff :))
They have a nice selection of first cold pressed extra virgin Italian olive oil & every other fine cooking oil you need like walnut, sunflower, peanut, almond, coconut etc.,
However, this Sprouts doesn’t carry all the different chips & snacks we usually purchase from Fresh Market but they do have the blue corn chips we love & TERRA, the real vegetable chips. They even have the new Mediterranean & tropical flavors! If you haven’t tried the new tropical flavored TERRA vegetable chips they taste like fruit loops! Lol
The Mediterranean is the best with the lemon & sea salt, my fave. Totally fantastic with hummus. YUMMY! :)‘
We have always experienced awesome customer service at this location. One day a Sprouts employee opened three different flavors of one item for us just so we could decide which one we liked best. WOW.
My fave things from sprouts are their own brand of coconut water, the French Gorgonzola in the cheese section, fresh California black mission figs, organic arugula, Bragg liquid aminos, the black oil cured olives on the olive bar & the marinated beets!
The beets OMG the beets are very yummy indeed! Great paired with warm goat cheese, fresh greens, yellow cherry tomatoes, & roasted pumpkin seeds in a simple vinaigrette.
Im not a fan of the bakery bc I like to bake most of my own breads. However, their organic meats & fish, fresh produce, specialty items like their organic bread flour & awesome customer service are what keep us coming back ;)
When I’m in OKC with my hubby, Sprouts is on our route, for all our future «operation dinner at home» plans.
Highly recommend :)

This location is a little bigger than the one on 2^nd. The bakery section is bigger and the store in general is a little wider. The people here are still very friendly and helpful and if they can’t find what you’re looking for, they make sure to find someone who can. It’s so nice to have Sprouts in different locations and have organic and natural food/​products available when I need a spur of the moment shopping trip.

I. Love. Sprouts. It makes my obnoxious, ‘must eat organic lifestyle’ seem okay. While living in Boston, I constantly went to three grocery stores in one day to get everything I needed, but Trader Joe’s was mostly my jam. I wept at the loss of TJ when moving to Oklahoma, but Sprouts has made it so much easier. I no longer go to three grocery stores, I just need Sprouts!
Okay okay, no one wants to know all that info. You wanna know Why Sprouts? Great, affordable produce! Great meat with legs and without! A small selection of beer! Huge bread area! Made to order sandwiches! I wish it was closer to my house, but it’s probably for the best that it’s not.
