Nice store, only place I can find the herb I use consistently, but their prices for the self serve herbs are about 2 or 3x what I'm used to paying at the store I visited in my home state.
Their staff is extremely friendly and helpful, but this sometimes results in waits at the register - never a huge deal, they are always focused on helping all the customers, but it's seldom an in-and-out experience.

I asked if I could perhaps have a guiding recipe to make at home with herbs that I knew were certified GF and she refused claiming that all her blends are proprietary.
