Enjoy this peek into the new Whole Foods in Encinitas, located along the coast on the scenic Highway 101.
Below the store, there’s ample parking for shoppers so do take advantage of the free 2 hour parking limit since parking is limited on the main street.
The best way to describe this store and its feel when you walk in, is a friendly and warm beach environment with many options for take out if you’re on your way to the park or beach with your friends and family. It has been designed with a rustic look, with crates, murals, sunny open windows, for a casual lay-back shopping experience for their coastal setting.

The store officially opens Wednesday, June 29 th with a Bread Breaking ceremony.
I took a tour of the new store on Sunday, and here the fish department manager is explaining how Whole Foods will be stocking their case with fish. They will be carrying fish from our local Catalina Offshore business in Point Loma. http://www.catalinaop.com/ Take a look at the beautiful art work above. Throughout the store it has a very colorful appealing look to it with beautiful displays of local artwork.
On to the chicken and meat counter. Here they have painted a mural of their animal welfare rating system. One step in the right direction.
