I like the Natural Food Emporium for several reasons. It's local to my town, and even my neighborhood, and that's very appealing to me. I don't like to travel a lot to find things. I like the owner, she's very friendly and knowledgeable, and willing to look up things she doesn't know the answer to. She's willing to order things she doesn't have in stock, also. It's a small store, but the prices are at or below those of other health food stores close by. I think she has a good selection, considering the space limitations, and like I said, she'll order something when she can if she doesn't have it. I've been going there for several years, and I can think of only a couple of drawbacks to this place: one, since there's only one person there, the hours are less flexible than other places, and two, for some items her distributor might not be able to get those in. I've found that I can work around these things and be quite content.
Pros: Service is great. The location is good, right on the highway. Prices are very competitive, I've found.
Cons: It's a small store, so the variety isn't the same as a bigger store.
