Mustard Seed Market: located at the intersection of organic and delicious
One of the joys that comes with living in Northern Ohio is the presence of the one-and-only Mustard Seed Market, a natural and organic marketplace and restaurant that celebrates the abundance and deliciousness nature's plentiful offerings.
At Mustard Seed, which has locations in Montrose and Solon, the focus is on whole foods, natural home, health and beauty products and healthy living overall. When scouring the ingredient lists on any of Mustard Seed's featured items, you'll never come across hard-to-pronounce, lab-manufactured preservatives or fillers because there simply aren't any. Every item on the store shelves is natural and organic, as well as animal-cruelty and pesticide-free.
From the vast produce section to the extensive dairy cooler and full-service meat and seafood department, Mustard Seed Market provides a one-stop-shop for grocery buying — which is something other organic markets in the area cannot claim. The market even has a deli where patrons can buy items like free-range and cruelty-free lunch meats. An on-site bakery and plenty of dry and frozen goods are also available.
In addition to the many organic grocery items are hundreds of other household necessities — toilet paper; paper towels; soaps; detergents; cosmetics; cleaning supplies and even diapers. These necessary items are all eco-friendly and made with naturally sustainable and biodegradable ingredients.
The Mustard Seed Cafe is a great place to grab a quick and healthy lunch or dinner and is located in the rear of the store. Featuring tantalizing items like soups, sandwiches, salads and desserts, the cafe is always serving up something hot and delicious.
The Montrose location also features a full-service restaurant, complete with organic beer and wine choices and a fresh sushi bar. A large variety of vegetarian and vegan options are on the menu as well as many savory meat, poultry and seafood dishes. Be sure to stop in and try some of Mustard Seed's famous beef filet with sauce Bearnaise — it's more tender than any filet you've ever tasted because it was grass-fed. Other menu items include pecan-crusted cod filets, tofu lo-mein and bison burgers.
Mustard Seed also puts on a number of events and classes each month. From diabetes workshops to holiday baking classes and live music, there is sure to be an event that tickles your organic fancy.
