It was bittersweet to find out that our Richardson Whole Foods was finally closed down, but I knew that meant that the brand new Whole Foods Addison was about to open! I am excited for our new nearest Whole Foods to have a larger footprint, meaning that it will carry more items that I have formerly had to drive 5-7 miles to another location to get (I know, I know, I am still spoiled…). The Whole Foods Addison at Beltline and the Tollway will open to the public on July 16. However, I was graciously given a media preview tour this morning and snapped the following pics!
“Flying banana” display – see the black wire grid? Bananas will be hanging off of it!There are actually 2 aisle of bulk foods at this Whole Foods location, you can bring your own container to conserve plastic bag waste!The wine section, where you’ll be able to find suggested wine pairings from local chefs, celebrities, and even local bloggers!
Cheese Shop! Need I say more?!
Personal products aisle — I always end up here!Quote from Kinky Friedman on the beer case “Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder”
In-store bar with many beers on tap, even root beer! Have a drink while you shop!Did you know you can pre-purchase a drink from the bar for a friend who isn’t with you? The next time they visit, they’ll have a free drink on you! My name is spelled “J-E-N-N-Y”…if you were wondering…Meat department with sustainable meats and the Whole Foods Animal Welfare Rating System
Bakery section! Cupcakes and treats with no artificial colors or HFCS, yay!Pre-prepared food area. At this store, the grab-and-go meals are in enclosed refrigerator cases because that is more energy efficient.Upstairs cafe area, great for holding small, intimate meetings.
If you’d like to take a sneak peek too, there is a special preview tomorrow (Friday, July 12) from 4-7pm open to the general public. Word is that there will be food samples!

Looks Awesome.
I wish they had a little play area like the Preston Forest one. That’s our treat at the end of grocery shopping.
I totally agree! I love that play area at Preston Forest! You know what would be awesome, a play area right next to the wine/beer bar. WOO HOO!
