Erewhon Pacific Palisades

Nestled in the heart of Pacific Palisades, this Erewhon location stands out as the most impressive of the chain’s LA outposts. The space feels more like a wellness temple than a grocery store, with sprawling aisles wide enough to navigate without the usual supermarket shuffle. Free underground parking and elevator access that deposits you directly inside make this perhaps the most civilized grocery shopping experience in all of Los Angeles.

The layout here is thoughtfully designed with regulars in mind. Fresh produce greets you at the entrance, meaning quick daily shopping trips don’t require a full store tour. This clever arrangement keeps the hot bar area refreshingly uncrowded—a rare luxury for anyone who’s battled the lunchtime rush at other locations. The smoothie bar takes center stage with its decorative greenery and that legendary coconut soft-serve machine that’s worth the trip alone.

This is quintessential LA people-watching territory. Grab something from the prepared foods section and claim a spot on the bucolic front patio for what feels like an elevated picnic. It’s the kind of place where the simple act of eating a kale salad somehow feels aspirational. The clientele skews toward Palisades residents who’ve made this their daily haunt.

Whether you’re stopping by for organic provisions or treating yourself to their famous tonic bar creations, this location delivers the full Erewhon experience in its most polished form. Currently closed following the fires, it’s scheduled to reopen in 2026—marking it on your calendar now wouldn’t be unreasonable.
