Nice selection. Alot of beer and wine. Sushi too!

Occasionally Whole Foods carries something that doesn’t show up at RSVP or Downeast but generally the selection here isn’t as extensive. I confess a preference for shopping the local places first but if you’re in a hurry and want to gather food and beer provisions all in one stop this is probably the logical place in the Portland area. If you have a little more time the Standard Bakery next door to Downeast Beverage in the Old Port has vastly better baked goods than Whole Foods and is only a few minutes and easy navigation away.

http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/maine/portland/whole-foods-market---portland-maine/10652.htm A little bit outside the busy part of Portland. Huge grocery store with large parking. As usual with Whole Foods stores this is a superior grocery store. As usual with Whole Foods stores it has an interesting beer selection. Gotta love Whole Foods. Large selection and somehow it seems to have a different source than other Portland beer stores (different supplier/importer?). They also had some non-Maine brews that I didn’t elsewhere, for instance I bought Barrel Aged Rasputin there that I didn’t see anywhere else in the state. The Maine micro selection is incomplete (way inferior to RSVP Discount) but the selection of non-Maine American micros is quite interesting for a Maine store. Plus it is a superb grocery store. Worth a visit even if you are hitting the other major stores in town.

I stumbled upon this massive and cool Whole Foods in Portland. We went in for lunch but they had a number of cool brews, particularly Saint Ambroise Oatmeal Stout amongst others. Its not a must stop but its a worth while stop.
