Nature's Oasis Van Aken

Strong menu, many healthy and vegan options. Lots of room to meet with friends or have biz meeting

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. I don’t know how my experience ended up souring so quickly. Initially, I found them via a vegans/vegetarians page on Facebook. They were willing to bring a drink special from one location to another for me. I was so impressed with their communication and customer service. The day I was supposed to pick up the drink (that I drove 35 mins one way for), they had no idea who I was or that I was coming and informed me the drink had been thrown away!? They also couldn’t answer any of my questions about food allergens this is a health food store that offers organic and allergen-free foods! How!? They seemed annoyed to be working at all. I was even informed that my other purchases should have been comped for my inconvenience but I paid full price for everything. Not only that, but the muffin I finally ate today had a LIVE BEETLE INSIDE THE WRAPPER. I have contacted them 3x since Sunday (it is now Friday) and have received zero communication back. What happened!? How did they go from being so incredible to going ghost and having zero accountability for a bug in their food, throwing away something I ordered, treating customers terribly, and having no experience with their products!? I’ll never go back.
