Erewhon Santa Monica - Santa Monica, California

This is a one of a kind grocery store, I've never seen anything like it. It has a lot of incredibly expensive products that are almost 3x as much as they are at Ralph's. It also has some very unique products like hemp milk, sea moss, or wagyu beef. Really high end place, definitely not for the average shopper. The staff was plentiful and very nice. They also have a smoothie, coffee, lunch place that is equally as expensive as their groceries.

This place is something for sure! I had to see what all the hype was about. The store is gorgeous and definitely caters to a certain crowd, it’s perfect for LA. The produce section is good, great apples 🍏 food selection of juices and fancy snacks. I arrived 30mins before closing so a lot of the hot food was being packed away ready for purchase. This place is made for people that don’t like to cook but like to eat ‘homemade’ food.
Parking available for store customers and it’s free! Time limit for parking is 45mins

We went there me and my friend to try Hailey Bieber’s Erewhon ‘Skin Glaze’ Smoothie, and it wasn't bad, and definitely not worth the 20$ lol.

This place is everything! Ok, all of the Erewhon places are the best, but i mean, an Erewhon in Beverly Hills, where you can also have lunch with all the amazing food from the store?!
The spicy tuna crispy rice roll are something that i’m still dreaming, all of sushi products are fresh and tasty.
The crispy tofu sticks are my second favorites.
To me erewhon is a place that once you get in, you’re feelings can only be satisfied.

Erewhon isn’t just a grocery store—it’s a lifestyle. Where else can you buy a $30 green juice, question your life choices, and still feel like you made the healthiest decision ever? 10/10 would trade my paycheck for their cafe again 🙂

Exciting new addition to Santa Monica / West LA.

Will Erewhon keep expanding and become the new Whole Foods?

Nice store. I actually like vibe of the inside of their Venice store more, but this is great too. And it’s got an awesome outside area.

Of course, brace yourself for some epic prices (a gallon of Organic milk is $9.99–and raw milk (which I wish were illegal) is $18.99!). I was going to rate them four stars not five because I wasn’t sure the magic matches the prices. But then I sampled some chips and salsa from the salad bar and I’m up to five stars!

Pizzas and hot food looks awesome.

Biggest kombucha selection around perhaps.

All around exciting to have them open. Congrats to the team.

Felt like a kid at the zoo here! It's fascinating to see the exorbitant prices that people are willing to pay for "luxury" grocery items. I'm glad this place exists because it really is a fun game to walk around and guess prices with a partner or friend. There certainly are (relatively) affordable items available, but the vast majority are expensive, highly processed, and chock full of "healthy" buzzwords. I understand there is a demand for stores like this because, well, this is LA. If the outrageous prices here were justified by environmental sustainability efforts and better wages, benefits, and working conditions for food industry workers, that would be great! That would be an awesome reason to make groceries unreasonably expensive. But that's not the case. It's a status symbol to drop thousands on "luxury" groceries each month. I get the feeling that people shop here to avoid poor people. Why else would you buy a pound of strawberries for $20, a $15 chocolate bar, $90 protein powder, or a jar of clam chowder for $20?

Valet parking, $10 challah when Jyan Isaac is closed and rich bone broth. What’s to not like?
