Great store staff works superb with customers. Too bad they have to have to deal mature customers bringing their grade 6 I.Q. Attitude when they shop at the store. Over the years I seen customers rudely mouthing off at staff on the floor. I clearly remember onetime it was over a sale sign on an item. He felt he was entitled to item because it as similar the item on sale.

Large, spacious, clean and very well presenting supermarket in the Shelbourne Plaza. Good produce section, delicatessen, bakery, meat section and a surprisingly large Asian food selection. Pleasant well trained staff. There is even a British section of comestibles!

Prices are getting crazy, like many other grocery stores. They have a great international foods section, but prepare to pay $7-10 for things like ponzu sauce and $4 for a UK Cherry Coke.
I bought the dark Russian rye bread and it was like eating foam. No flavour, terrible texture. I like to buy from local grocers, but I can find similar (and even the exact same) products at Superstore and Walmart for half the price. A 300 gram pack of shabu thin-sliced raw beef (frozen) is $17. In Vancouver, that same sized pack is $12 from PriceSmart. Sorry, Fairway, but that seems less than fair.

It's the best place in the city to get a canned cheese and onion pie.
update: they now have vegetable balti as well
I also think it's the best overall selection of imported food in the city. Tons of Asian food as well as European. Despite this, no tonkatsu sauce.

One cashier on today.
I thought Thriftys was pricy- I hardly shop at Fairways and was surprised at the prices.
At the till I noticed an Aero bar- $2.99!!! Haha!
Went over to Thriftys afterwards- same bar is $1.99.
I won't shop here again.
