Besties is my new bestie. I love this market. Even with my dietary restrictions I found some amazing vegan snacks without cashews and coconut. You can find items at Bestie that Sprouts and Whole Foods do not have. I had oatmilk based ice cream which was delicious. I also like that there are hot food choices and coffee as well. Prices can be up to a dollar more than other larger markets but fair for vegan items. The wait for check out can be close to 20 minutes so it's good to not be in a rush. I also hung out in front on the steps to eat and people watch. Really cool vibe on a Sunday. I will definitely be back.

I’m so happy an all vegan grocery store like this exits! When I first heard about BESTIES, I was instantly excited to visit and experience it for myself. It’s everything I expected and more. From the unique selection on the shelf, to the aesthetics, and super friendly staff, I’m definitely a returning customer! Special shoutout to one of the team members, Kirk for helping me find some of my new favorite items and making sure I get the best vegan hot dog. Will be back the next time I’m in town for sure!
