This is exactly my favorite kind of store. I stopped in to grab a quick bite and got the vegetarian egg rolls and the sesame noodle salad. The were both delicious and filling. I would happily come here again, especially if I need any groceries.

Great selection of local food. I am loving the farm fresh meats and yogurt. The veggies are delicious. The manager there is lovely and helpful.

I love it here. Super friendly staff, great local protein selection (fresh and frozen), beautiful produce. I must go in at least 3x per week. Theyre the best.

A great place with lots of interesting fresh local produce. I would shop here again!

A little out of my price range for regular grocery shopping, but most definitely one of the best places in Central Maine for special diet needs. Absolutely huge selection of GF snacks, and the best place for a healthy lunch. Bring back the deli counter!!

Waited 33 minutes for a burger and fries. Watched l0 later orders come up before mine. Terrible grill management. Allow PLENTY of time if you order from the grill. No offer to make up for time wasted, just a sorry. Never again.

The building is usually quite clean, pleasant attendants and the machines are in good working order.

The manager is a disgusting person. I watched him kick an elder lady out of his parking lot. He brags that he worked here for 10 years and has very crude commentary towards people. He got within a foot of me as he was taking his mask off and back on!

I have never been to the co-op without leaving with a smile. Amazing products, friendly, kind and knowledgeable staff... Am very proud to be a member!

Great selection, good prices and friendly helpful staff

The Belfast Co Op is nothing less than the heart of the town. Although Covid has eliminated the indoor food and seating, they have kept the rest of the store going. Few places are better at following safety guidelines to provide as safe a shopping experience as possible. As one of the most significant produce merchants in the area, they have done an excellent job at sourcing from local growers and manufacturers. Since small farms do not receive government funding like their larger competitors, their prices reflect the true cost of food. Nevertheless, the Co Op has maintained very reasonable pricing, while still being able to offer medical insurance to their employees. I love the Co Op, I am a supporting member, and I shop there regularly. Thank you for existing.

This is a great store, with a very nice variety of products. Among other things, they have a high quality selection of prepared food/meals. Everything from fresh produce, to canned goods, bulk, wine and beer, frozen foods, fresh meats and personal care items.

Wonderful products and customer service!

Love this place and all the kind people who work here! Always fresh delicious produce

I always make a point to stop in here when coming to/through Belfast. The store is well stocked with local/niche goods. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, just a feel-good place to get some treats.

Treat customers VERY poorly unfortunately. Been coming here for 10 years - things have changed. Will never be back.

I been going the coop for years and always felt welcome.

Initially stopped in to use the bathroom and grab a drink on our drive through back to PA...but I couldnt make it past the bakery without grabbing a pumpkin whoopie pie, which was great..But nobody whoopies any pies like Lancaster, PA. 🤷Loved this town and the store. The employees were super friendly.

Favorite grocery store ever - so much variety, good prices, and a great cafe (which I hope comes back post-COVID!).

Not a large market but they offer a great selection, I found everything I needed plus ORGANIC Weetabix!! The staff is friendly and helpful. Im definitely going to join this co-op to take advantage of the great member benefits. 👍

I couldn’t be more appreciative to have a place like this nearby.Just an incredible selection of local and organic products. Everything is as fresh as it gets and as delicious as they come.If you’re in the area be sure to stop here and load up.

The mask mandate is over, yet the Belfast coop still has one. Lame!

Great selection and prices. We love this place!

I love my coop! They quickly adjusted to the COVID 19 crisis and offered a curbside pick up option at no cost. They also recently upgraded their website so that you can see what you purchase. The service is so helpful and efficient.

A very pleasant place with kombucha on tap and quite a variety of products for a relatively small store. Very friendly staff. Prices are a little high.

Made the long trip several times to stop in and stock up. The only sane and healthy business around! The local products are wonderful, the staff is friendly and considerate, and I feel safe shopping here.

Local strawberries and nice people

Extremely friendly and well stocked. The prices are a little higher, but the quality is worth it

Nice people here! they always help me to find what i want :)

I would like this place but there are too many issues especially the attitudes. I got fresh coffee today and a rude customer felt the need scold me on how to clear my coffee from the machine. Despite the fact that the machine is filthy from there being no small brush to clear the grinder. Then at checkout the woman at the register was a bit abrupt when i ask what i was to do with the cart to be cleaned. Over all the coop needs some training in how to interact with others not just the coop locals.

Great 👍

When we come to Maine we make sure to come to the co-op! Its a little on the pricey side but if you want quality you pay a little more. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable with fast service. The cafe inside has a nice variety of menu items to choose from if youre looking for a quick bite to eat. The store, inside and outside, is always kept neat and tidy.I highly recommend visiting this store 😊👍💗

Great place, love the selection but one of your young workers is not professional. You should not hit on customers and asked a married man for a date.

Small little store with some real quality items in it. They are very friendly in here and for some reason are always busy. The place is pretty clean for the most part inside and they have a variety of items in here. Prices are a little high but that is fine because they have some real quality items here.

This store offers a great selection of locally sourced products. They also offer a huge selection of products not available locally. The produce and meat are always fresh. The staff are friendly and always willing to help!

It is not the co-op I knew, as it seems totally corporate. They do carry all the best natural foods and brands, comparative in price... which I like. I shop there, but its no longer like family.. I add that i totally disagree with the owner apparantly they dont remember the old days.

Far and away the best place for groceries when visiting Belfast and nearby towns. Incredible selection of very tasty local dairy, as well as all of the essentials you’d expect.

A great little place to get many organic or bulk items for your home. We just needed coffee, creamer, and granola. Its in a great location if youre on foot but has a parking lot in front. We easily found everything we needed.

Great small step with lots of healthy choices.

Totally adequate health food store plus lots of local stuff and bulk food, coffee, herbs, spices. Yummy prepped food too. Semi a co-op.

Friendly staff, nice grocery store with extensive bulk options and tasty sausages.

Everything you need in one store!

The staff is very pleasant. Safe place to shop

While the store has good selection of items two things made me very unhappy: first, theyre clearly overcharging for some things that are sold in nearby regular grocery stores for almost twice less! Way to dupe a naive visitor...but know - people just wont return after seeing shameless price gouging, so you ultimately lose on lost customer base. Also, they got really weird and about me returning a glass container, it was unpleasant: there was a tiny bit of yogurt on the bottom which I simply couldnt get out using the hotel bathroom tiny sink...I even asked them if I could use their sink to wash it out since theyre expecting surgically-clean container, and they were no and very arrogant about it. Mind boggling, since cleaning containers to sparkling clean state takes much water and soap - so bad for the environment!

Always delicious food in the deli area. Fresh produce & wonderfully stocked whole foods on the shelves. Helpful staff with a smile. Plus it smells like home when you walk through the door! Love this place.

Its hard for me to read some of the negative reviews. I think the coop does a pretty good job considering the competition, the demands, the demanding, the high expectations, and how much weve come to expect to be available at low everyday prices from national brands and retailers and on line options. I appreciate what they do. Ive worked in a food store and there are never ending things to do and I see everyone working all the time. The Coop is one of the many pillars that make Belfast a great little city. Do the best you can with what you have where you are.

Just had a wonderful, peaceful trip to the co-op. They had what I needed and were polite and informative when I asked a question. I have had some unpleasant trips to the coop in the past. I did not feel many of the staff I had interacted with over the years were very pleasant even when no words were spoken, sometimes by looks alone and I didn’t know these people at all. I don’t usually feel that way. I’m really glad I went back today and gave the store another try. What a nice experience. Thank you Belfast Coop.

I dont think I can rave about this place enough! I have a sensitive digestive system and clean palate, so finding yummy clean prepared food I can digest easily is a challenge - and I just got loads of stuff from the deli!! Its very reasonably priced for what it is, and everyone was so helpful. I didnt find brands of packaged snacks that I like, but Id rather have the fresh food anyway.

Not a fan, last time I was there I saw multiple items cheaper at farmers markets. I would much rather shop with the people who make the products locally than support a storefront with such high mark up. A local small vendor has to make sacrifices in their business to have this place carry their products. Its a great idea but really, my opinion, more money should go to the vendors not the store. I will continue to shop at farmers markets or directly with the vendors.

If you want organic, locally grown foods (in season), Belfast Co-op is a great place. The products can be a bit more expensive, but I like knowing its only a few hours old rather than days on a truck old. The little eatery has many options for both meat and non-meat eaters. From veggie burgers to sandwiches and wraps, all made to order and fresh. Being a member also has perks.

Probably the biggest, certainly the best Co-op in the mid-coast. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Great wine selection. And dont miss the homemade sausage.

Great place to shop for great food!

This place is pretty nice if you want to buy some organic food. We go here once and a while to pick-up hard to find items. With that said, we couldnt afford to shop here every week as their produce prices are through the roof. I bought two pounds of apples last year for like $10. Thats my fault for not looking at the price. I love buying local but local shouldnt mean crazy expensive. Personally I skip this Co-op often and just go straight to the farm stands where the actual farmers set decent prices and you can chat with them about the season and so on. They do however have a nice cafe inside.My summary-Great cafe-Terrible produce prices-Very small selection of produce-Great selection of hard to find health food products (expensive though)-Friendly staff

Friendly staff, amazing selection, pretty ok prices. Its one of the best stocked natural food stores Ive seen anywhere. Its better than whole foods and theres a great deal of Maine products.

Super friendly and helpful staff, great place to shop.

Solid grocery and health food store. Basically a tiny whole foods. Fair prices and friendly staff. Decent beer and wine selection. Also a café with a section to dine there.

Probably the most expensive place Ive ever bought groceries. They seem to run it more like a charity for inept employees than a co-op. It seems like theres 20 employees working whenever you are there. Id imagine they have to price things the way they do to pay for all the unnecessary labor. Dont get me wrong, they are nice people and they quality of the goods is fine, but they need someone to actually manage it in a way thats responsible.

I love this place! Great for fresh, organic, healthy, and hard to find products. Friendly staff, community oriented.

Love All the organic, Local food, and products

My son took us to the coop. Staff was friendly and helpful selection was more than I expected. Will shop again on next visit

Ridiculous place. Shadow of its former self. Calling it a co op is laughable. Half the staff work too hard the other half stand around like a security force. Prices are over the top produce section a waste. Same food for 20years, no imagination. Too bad theres no alternative. Whos in charge, ugh. Check out Chases for a good meal and try Hannaford for organic products. Head to Bangor for Natural Living Center.

Love the organic selection of vegetables and the staff are very friendly. We visit every year we vacation in Maine.

A great Organic place to visit in Belfast. Herbs, spices, grocery, and food.

I like that the Co-Op emphasizes supporting local, however there are still items that directly compete with some local options. At times it is hard to figure out why. This is quite noticable now, in early July, finding west coast strawberries for instance. In the new more spacious but less apparent shelf room arrangement, Id like to see more of the old standby items, and less space given to what I call trendy items made, processed, or handled by big and bigger corporate entities behind the labels. While the staff is generally polite, helpful and knowledgeable, they are short staffed on what seems like a fairly frequent basis, which can be inconvienent at the very least. I shop there to support the general principles represented by the Co-Op and because they have excellent fish and cheese departments, as well as the best health and beauty section with a very well informed section manager.

Nice selection of natural foods. Got a pre-made sandwich that tasted like my grandma made it!

Chef is outstanding! Been a fan since she worked in Winslow! Simple, healthy and always delicious.

Pretty lucky to have a place like the Belfast coop for most of my shopping needs.

Belfast co-op is my ideal of the community feel a co-op should represent in a town while supporting local growers and makers.

I think it great place to hang out, meet friends and have coffee, breakfast and lunches &shopping.

Great public restroom

Cool spot! Of course prices are a little high but no more than to be expected for a Small Town Co-op with all sorts of good things

Amazing food!! Great groceries and cooked food from the cafe! Love this place!!

Very friendly and awesome selection! What a great co-op!

Filled with natural foods holistic items and local Goods.

Best food, great service, variety of goods and a nice place to sit down and eat what youve bought as well. Even plants and garden supplies outside.

Love going to their deli for Breakfast, lunch or even just a snack.

Local produce, local meat, local fish, local bread and desserts... local local local with a cooperative spirit!

Nice place, nice people, the worst sandwiches ever! Just two slices of bread with wilted lettuce and some spread.

Good food. Pretty expensive.

Great selection of Maine brewed beers.

Helpful staff and wonderful local store.

I was waiting for the leftist marching band to provide a little background music. Great selection of granola.

A bit pricy, and weak fish selection, nothing less then 12 a pound, but wonderful feel, people and raw dairy selection.

Expensive. Limited selection of breads. Produce was not looking as fresh as I expected.

Always fresh, proud to have worked there

Hard to order with so many great choices

Good organic food

Amazing selection and helpful staff.

Wonderful people, great selection, so thankful

Pricey, so definitely join the co-op.

Cool grocery is a great town

They have great food

Good food and service!

Absolutely love this store!

Its great!

My visit to the coop was injoyable

The cashier was rude, she started talking to another staff person before finishing my transaction, she only said thank you after I said it loudly to her and kept on talking as I said have a nice day to her.

Great place!

Great coop

Great selection
