The Goose Community Grocer

Very nice store. Lots of great produce and many organic and bulk options. The store is clean, well organized and the staff is helpful.

A beautiful fresh fruit and vegetable produce section, a nice selection of fresh bakery breads from community bakeries, a nice soup bar for hot soup, excellent customer service, and a good selection of frozen foods are the highlights of this community grocery store. There are certain items that I can only find here, so I have now added this store to one of my regular stops when doing shopping errands in our South Whidbey Island community. A very good grocery store resource for our community. Customer service has been consistently positive here - this is one of the highlights of this store. I have experienced some less than optimum customer service from time to time at Payless in Freeland, so I really appreciate the consistently good and positive customer service that is provided at the Goose Community Grocer.

Ordered their special Valentine's Day dinners from the deli got prime rib and brisket dinners. Amazing food and great service. Great value for the price! Easily fed 4 people with plenty of leftovers! The prime rib was probably the best I've had in the last decade!

Check the expiration dates closely here! I have shopped here several times only to go home and find out the loaf of bread was expired or the 7 dollar almond hummus I purchased has expired. I like to shop early in the morning when it's not crowded, but the workers tend to have their stuff everywhere while they are stocking products, completely blocking products, and act annoyed when you are trying to manuever through it with your grocery cart.

Whole food selection & quality without whole food baggage (and prices)? Apple fritters bigger than your face? Look no further than The Goose, should you be in the south Whidbey Island area. Here you will find a wide selection of fresh, beautifully displayed, reasonably priced produce, aisles of bulk items (including grains, coffee, chocolate, honey, and even pet snacks), a large wine selection, locally baked pies, cute cards by local photographers, and more! Cannot wait to revisit to fulfill my grocery shopping dreams. Pro tip: when bagging produce, remember to use yellow produce bags for organic, blue produce bags for non-organic. Shout out to thoughtful fellow customer who pointed out this difference to me.Also, the gigantic apple fritter is totally worth it - airy with a slight crisp on the crust and delightful pull-apart texture in the middle. I rate this 5 out of 5 yums!

The best grocery store option on Whidbey. A clean store with a good selection of food options. The produce and meat selection is the best on the island. Try the smoked meat as you enter the store when it's available.

Me and my co workers decided to stop here after a long day working with the US navy. We got food and some beer and the cashier looked at us and demanded id. Mind you we are 35+ years old, multiple tattoos and a big beard. Just ridiculous. We spend around 4 grand here a month and now we won't come back. I hope management sees this

They never, ever have enough registers open. Expect to wait in a long, slow moving line. Today was typical - one register open, with two others staffed, but using their 'Closed' sign. Plenty of staff busy talking, but only one register open.

went in to the store around 2:00 to get some hamburger during their 1 day sale and they were out. i ultimately thought about it and decided to call the manager and complain and his comment was they had a number of people in and ultimately sold out quickly and I said I was =going complain, and he said that if I was going to be rude he hung up. before he hung up I suggested that they at least should have enough to last a day. Even if they've did not sell out they could sell it tomorrow .

I used to shop local, but the food prices for this establishment and many others have me Running with the remainder of the island to Costco, Albertsons or Winco OFF ISLAND. The $15 bucks you for a whole chicken is just too much and I had no idea how much y'all have been overcharging locals until I started shopping overtown.... well now ya lost me and I'm sure many more to follow....I just stopped today (8/26/2019) thinking maybe some fried chicken and bbq wings sounded good.... The food was tasteless and disgusting.... I through it out when I got home after trying a couple of the wings and one of the thighs.... Too bad, I had hope
