Go Natural Health Foods & Juice Bar

Thank you so much for calling me I left my metro and work ID there. It’s all because of that amazing vegan chocolate cake, I just had to have a slice! Great selection of everything else you need for health and you don’t have to be a vegetarian or vegan!

This is my local organic go-​to shop. I am obsessed with their homemade Black Bean Burger. I always ask them to warm it up for me and they kindly do. Anytime I have questions about my health, the knowledgable staff always points me in the right direction. I rarely run into the owner but when I do I love chatting with him. Very nice pleasant man, very knowledgable and you can tell he has a passion for helping people with organic products. Love this place!!!

This place is great! It’s quality, relatively inexpensive, has a good bulk section, and, for a small place, has a really good variety and selection. I don’t do my weekly shopping there, but I always stop by if I need something specialized. Glad to have Go Natural in the neighborhood!

They have everything for your organic, non gmo, gluten free, and other things in dieting mainstream here. Their smoothies /​shakes are fresh and can be filled with other supplements such as magic mana, wheat grass, and protein, depending on your liking. Staff are knowledgable and friendly and always willing to answer any questions. Try their alaskan salmon burger, is it really from alaska? Idk, but it’s goood.
How do you know if someone’s a vegan? … Don’t worry, they’ll fckin tell ya !!

Great selection of organic and health related goods.
I usually get either their organic juices or vegan chocolate desserts. The desserts are sooo good I get them more than the juices. Lol.
I will post some pix in due time.

Love this place i work out alot so healthy snacks and juicing is a must. All natural but kinda pricey! I mean everything is pricey when u aim healthy.

Health food store with juice bar and homemade dishes. Everyone is friendly and helpful and the homemade food is very good. Nice neighborhood store.

Nice small local shop. Good organic variety; we need more of this in sunnyside. It is nice because they have a variety or new random organic stuff. They also have a wheat grass shots. Downside, cramped and a bit hard to fund stuff. That said the staff is super duper helpful.

I used to go here before I moved to brooklyn. It’s a nice place people who work here are always friendly. I met the owner. Not such a nice guy. He over works his workers and under pays them. I’m thankful there’s a health food store such as this but I don’t like when people get taken advantage of. I’m huge supporter of independent companies so I’m glad to have experienced this one. I wish the owner would change the way he treats people

Small shop but great selection and really the only option around for natural foods and especially juices. The shop is a little cramped and the wait for juices can be long, but it’s definitely. Nancys homemade items are always fresh and delicious as well

I have asked the people who run this place for information on herbs, natural remedies etc before I buy… and they can’t answer me nor do they make any effort to look anything up. So the people hired here are just working here because it is a job. Not because they have the health food store/​homeopathic knowledge.
Today I was looking for a particular oil. I asked them if they had it and it was pretty clear they had never even heard of it and they seemed disinterested and unconcerned about their lack of knowledge. And God forbid that they should offer to order it for me !!!
This place is NOT vegetarian. I saw them selling chicken breasts to a customer last week. So if you are a vegan/​veggie and that turns you off, be forewarned.
It is the only health food store type place in the area, and I hardly go there but I will be frequenting stores that have more knowledgeable and professional staff. That means back to Manhattan.
Again, this is Queens. Apparently, you can’t expect anything better in goods and services than barely mediocre once you cross the bridge. Personally, I have come to the conclusion that Queens should not be considered part of NYC as standards here are so low.

I love coming here, the sandwiches are always on point and you can usually find all the healthy used-​to-​be-​really-​hard-​to-​find-​but-​big-​companies-​bought-​them-​out items.

I have mixed feelings about this place. They carry great products, majority of the time I find exactly what I’m looking for and the pre-​made food selection is great. On the other side, the overall cleanliness of the store is below average. Alot of times there are flies near the granola selection in the back, and one time when I brought home some granola, I opened the bag a fly was mixed in with my food. I also find a few of the people at the register a little rude (but I don’t care about that so much). I really like this place, just wish it was a little cleaner… That’s all.

Favorite organic store in queens ! Being coming for years, friendliest staff and owner. Love the juices, good selection of organic and gluten free groceries and vitamins. I can only find the raw organic and organic instant coffee I like here. Love the organic nuts and dry fruits is my favorite.

I come here when I need something healthy and don’t feel like going all the way to Trader Joes. They sell a lot of good stuff here and the people that work here are super helpful. They are even super nice if you are looking for something and will go out of their way to help you.
The prices are a little on the high side but lets face it if you want something healthy you have to pay for it.
They also have prepared food and sell smoothies but I still haven’t tried them.

They get five stars. You know why? They are the only truly healthy, organic, raw, vegan and vegetarian store in Sunnyside/​LIC and the woman at the front counter was so cool. She makes a lot of the food that they sell. She had this great smoked tofu and Cayanne pepper dish, and she also had this fantastic bean salad with couscous — it was so tasty!
They have a really big selection of herbs and homeopathic remedies for anything that might ail you. They have a lot of gluten-​free products, a lot of fresh homemade products and just enough of the basic staples for people who are very conscious about their health.
She also made sure I put something back on the counter and got something else that was cheaper. Who does that in New York?!
Everyone is always trying to scam you to make more money in this town, and it was so refreshing to meet someone who didn’t. I’m sick of feeling like I’m going to buy a used car every time I talk to someone about the price of something.
This experience was great. She deserves our money. This is the kind of stuff Sunnyside and Long Island City really need.
Check it out!

There is plenty of metered parking and an extra quarter is a small price to pay. This store has prepared meals and desserts and I also noticed some organic, veggie and vegan options. I came in for juice, which is right in the front of the store, and the woman working there made it so fast I didn’t make it around the whole store. Next time I will do a little more exploring. This small store seems to have a lot.
I’ll be back.

Despite living in Sunnyside a few years, I have never shopped at Go Natural until today. I’m not a big juice person but I was curious to see what produce and grocery items they offered. I was pleasantly surprised by the prices. The organic veggies and fruits are cheaper than the grocery market. I’ve been astounded by the prices at MET and Key Food. The fruit at Go Natural is like $ 1 cheaper per pound. Their selection is small but I will definitely start coming here for my staple items. Also, they have the most amazing vegan whoopee pies and double chocolate chip cookies. OMG! They also have a large selection of spices, seeds, and grain. Shop here! It’s worth your time!

In a world where going vegan might be the next major human revolution, health conscious folks can get their disease killing, fat fighting foods here at Go Natural. For Sunnyside and its seemingly never ending variety of wonderful foods (and fast food spots), it is safe to say this might be the healthiest place in the entire hood.
Go Natural is more of a small, deli-​like convenience store than it is a juice bar, etc. It is remarkably small, with just a couple of aisles of stocked healthy goodness that ranges from a limited produce section to oodles of vegan this and gluten free that. The prices may scare some first timers away, but rest assured this is the price people pay for stuff that isn’t always super market /​mass food consumption friendly.
For the thirsty folks still fixated on the juice bar, it’s more of a «juice counter» i.e. the same counter everyone pays at before they leave with something. They can make fruity and veggie fluid libations for all to enjoy, including an assortment of tasty smoothies. If hunger is in the cards, opt for a mean tuna /​black bean /​salmon burger /​sammy for something like $ 5.50, along with any of their fresh «of the day» items.
The service folks (usually an older person and a younger girl) can always be a little warmer when greeting folks or assisting to locate specific items. It’s a small knock, but one that the patron folks would respond well to. Since not every hood is blessed with a healthy specialty market, I’m hoping this place can stick around for a long while.

Taste this honey!
…Is what my friend said to me. So I taste it and it does taste good. The honey is not a liquid running goop but thicker. I forget the brand but it’s an all natural type that he bought from Go Natural. My friend is a health conscious consumer who only eats natural or organic foods. Thus so am I, I am into natural and organic foods, but not as much as my friend. I’ve been to Go Natural before but never intended to Unilocal about it. This was my third or fourth visit. The first time I was just curious on the products they carry. I didn’t buy anything because at the time it didn’t suit my diet. As I got more into being health conscious as well, I started going to markets that cater to such.
Instead of traveling into the city for a Whole Foods. Go Natural is local but it’s small, with only two aisles. One aisle is full of vitamins and the other are items like cereal, nutrition bars, canned/​jarred goods, boxed treats, drinks, a frozen section for froen foods/​ice cream and other organic/​natural foods. They carry a little bit of veggies and fruits also. When you enter the store there are breads and chips. They also have boxed salads, vegetarian sandwiches and vegan desserts. There’s coffee, grains, nuts, rice by the pound in the back to pack as much as you like, not prepacked. There’s also coffee by the cup, upfront. They also make smoothies, two on the menu include a Pina Colada and an energy elixir.
One time I think I went in looking for this bottled all natural ginger ale which I could not find in the entire neighborhood and they carried it. If you like Acai, there’s big bottles of them and ice cream flavored Acai.
The lady at the counter is helpful.
I do stop by occasionally.
