Granny’s Pantry

Love this place everyone is very helpful and is super nice. Plus, the elderly lady (who use to be an RN) that works there is awesome and has been coined «Granny» Love it!

I got me some Quinoa Chips, which have an aftertaste like cardboard. And mmhhh, I got some reading material ’bout how to make myself healthier for the new year. Half the store’s vitamins, but I still looked through everything. I like this place.

Really well stocked store with lovely customer service. They carry hard to find goods that their neighboring stores do not have. Visit this store, you’ll love it.

My go-​to place for all things natural. Very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly owners. Really appreciate that they always have raw milk and butter in stock as well as a ton of homeopathic remedies, vitamins, probiotics — you name it, they have it. Great local mom and pop shop.

Hands down love this place for being a local small business with the healthy goods. Especially the Raw Cow and Goat milk. Yum to both! Love this place just for carrying the raw dairy. Home made ghee from raw butter. YAS! Whole paycheck doesn’t get down with raw, and for other reasons I prefer not to shop there and support places like this. For specialty items, supplements and essential oils I love to come here, or to get some things that I don’t want to order online. The prices for some things cheaper, other things more expensive, and others just about even with whats expected. I think I fare well here as one of my go to health food stores. Love the owner she is sweet and very knowledgable always helpful when I need to know something. And great just for a chat.

My go-​to place for harder-​to-​find NOW products!
(Liquid L-​Catnitine in my fave flavor, for example)
And they’re super helpful with any special order questions.

I dig this place. Mom and Pop. Better than waiting for shipping from Amazon or shopping at that other place that sucks up the whole paycheck. Service is great. Groovy vibe from the way back without the cheese of hippy dippy.

Cool little place to get crunchy and stock up on nature’s candy. If you don’t want to deal with the mega Whole Foods across the way, then this one’s for you. Pretty wide assortment of products, given the size of the store. Did notice a few items were really close to their expiration dates, so be sure to double check before you buy. Solid four stars for staying small and attention to personal service.

great store that carries a lot of raw, organic, gluten-​free food items, supplements health and beauty items. the store is quite small with small aisles.
the store is right at the corner of California and Arroyo Parkway.
some items are really pricey

I recently had cancer surgery. My recovery required LOTS of herbs that they just don’t carry anywhere else. The staff here is amazing! They really know their stuff! I’m SO thankful to have found this little gem at such an important time in my life!

Awesome lady who has great knowledge on supplements and herbs. I went there looking for specific products, but they did not carry everything I needed. However, they were very helpful in suggesting alternatives or help me ordering directly from their vendors. I can’t believe I have passed by this store so many years and today is my first time here. This will definitely be my one-​stop shop for all my holistic needs.

Very neat specialty store. Had a wide selection of Kombucha, raw whole milk, gluten free items, whole grain items, spices, essential oils and some bulk selections. I’m not sure when’s the next time I’ll pop in but it’s a cute spot if you’re just wanting to mill around Pasadena, checking out health shops.

This is a wonderful little health food pantry! They have a great beauty section I frequent often. The whole store has a lot of variety a totally reasonable prices. The staff is knowledgable and beyond sweet. I recommend supporting this fantastic mom and pop business as often as you can! Stores like these make our community unique and allow small business to thrive.

Nice staff, they have odds and ends when it comes to health food stuff you can’t seem to find elsewhere. Especially RAW MILK!!! Cow or goat. They are nice enough to hold bottles of this gold for you too if you call ahead and ask since they only get deliveries a few times a week.

I always drive past this place on the way to Whole Foods. And I always feel guilty passing it by, because I try support small stores. Well, today I stopped in and was pleased to see there actually is an old Granny there working the counter. The place is small and has limited organic products. Tons of vitamins and supplements that seem cheaper than Whole Foods. There are plenty of alternative products there, but not a wide selection. I wasn’t greeted until I checked out. That’s okay. I was surprised, pleasantly, to see a lot of people coming in to support the business. That explains how they survived Whole Foods. I’ll be back every now and again and support them, but the vast number of things I need and use are at Whole Foods. D’oh!

Had a wonderful time talking to Mauv, the wisest and nicest lady from Ireland and Richard who helped me buy products to help my tummy.
I learned that I need to take better care of myself and this place is more reasonable than Whole Foods!

They have limited products, however if you are looking for something that they do carry, then you will be pleased with the mass amounts and the prices.
Thanks Granny’s

Granny’s has the basics… and that is what I usually need. They have managed to keep their pricing competitive… in spite of a larger chain being just up the street. They know who I am when I walk into the store… and even ask follow-​up questions about our discussion from my last visit… even if it has been months. I really, really love the fact that I am supporting small business. Granny’s is a Pasadena staple… that has been around for as long as I can remember. I will continue to shop here.

First, always seek the advice of Maive, she has years of experience, vast knowledge and was a nurse. If she doesn’t know the answer, she will tell you. But she has never failed us yet.
This is a great health food store with a vast selection of supplements, etc. It is far better than Whole Foods and other competitors with a great touch of small business and capabilities.

I hate to be a white person, but this year I had to hop onto one of those stupid «I have a special need» kinds of bandwagons. I’ve developed a skin allergy to fragrance. I guess it was only a matter of time, because both my parents break out in an awful rash if they use scented detergent, dish soap, regular soap, etc.
At first, it wasn’t so bad… sure, I cried inside every time I coughed up money for unscented glycerine soap at Whole Foods. Then, I decided, Whole Foods sucks balls! They’re this mega-​corporation run by right wingers who have these glazed eyed liberals eating out of their hands! I decided I was going to make it a point NOT to spend my money at Whole Foods. (Which, of course, made me quest for All Things Fragrance Free an even bigger pain in the ass.)
I’ve hit up a couple of these little specialty stores and I’ve concluded that Granny’s is the least of the evils that are health food stores. The truth is, these smaller places will cost you WAY more money than WF, so you end up having to pick and choose.
What I like about Granny’s is, they are old school Pasadena (1 star), they’re tiny, but they sell decent stuff, (1 star), they’re expensive, but they won’t rape you raw like they do over there at Nature Mart in Los Feliz (1 star), and the big winner: the people who work here seem like nice, welcoming, anything-​goes kinds of hippies of yore, as opposed to the smug, pious, Prius driving neo-​hippies of today.
