Prices are ridiculous as far as I am concerned. It is by no means for the thrifty grocery shopper. I shall make an effort to go anywhere else but this store due to price gouging. The staff are great. I believe this is owned by the Sobey's - a billionaire family.

First time using food hero app and it was a great experience. The items wete bagged and ready when I arrived. No wait or confusion at all. Certainly worth the hour drive for the items I saved money on.

I used to hate this place before they put in the self checkout. I like grabbing a few quick deli things first thing in the morning for lunch but I'd end up behind multiple people with full carts and the express line was absolutely never open before 11am or so. The self checkout is a game changer as I do really like how well stocked this place is

Prices have been going up for months, today it was the last straw, one small pack of ice for $5.49. You kidding me? Then I drove to Coop and got the same pack for the same $2.99 I'm used to pay.
And decided to change my review here from 5 stars to one... and no more groceries at this abusive place...

veerrrrrryy expensive groceries, just like save on or whole foods. this is probably bec i saw loads of vegan friendly options and organic. good quality so $$$$$ we would buy the local produce again if it was labeled a bit bigger so we don't have to rummage through the usual aisle sections. so far there are room for improvement still.
they have the usual basked goods, meat, dairy, snacks, liquids, kitchen/laundry items, pet products, reading materials, etc but
not much electronics and no pharmacy.
