Metro

Really great local supermarket. Amazing fresh fruit and veg department, which includes things like fresh turmeric. The international cheese selection is very good but like elsewhere in Canada, is really expensive. Great fresh fish and meat both cured and fresh. I have not tried any, but I have noticed they have a wide selection of pre-made fresh food like pizza, pies, curry and stews. This place is really popular with young professional types in from the gym before returning home to food, telly and bed. Always busy but never so bad to put off people in need of a quick shop. Large free car park with lift under the complex.

This Metro is OK... quite often they are out of the most simple of items. One week I went and they were completely out of red peppers.. and the next they were out of cooking onions... the produce here is not great, but neither is the variety. I only shop here if I need a few things. If you are looking for particular ingredients for a recipe you plan to follow, I don’t recommend shopping here, because they probably won’t have it.

Avoid the meat department at all costs. Back in the summer I bought two steaks and one of them was brown and rancid on the bottom. Just now I bought chicken and it was rancid two days before expiry. Go to the Farm Boy on Browns line if you want a good grocery store.

Decent place to shop, very conveniently appointed from my condo. Friendly staff. Decent fresh pizza baked in store. Other in-store baked goods are hit or miss, mostly the later. Starbucks in store for those particular to that chain. Decent fresh produce section. This store caters to my limited needs pretty well, other than i'd appreciate more choice of Asian condiments.

Convenient location and good fish counter. Produce has improved over the last couple years. Smaller store so not always possible to get certain specialty items.
