  A decent if slightly over-priced grocery store, but the lunch buffet is truly underwhelming for the price. Whereas the salad selection is good, the meats and other mains are really quite cheap and look like a high school cafeteria selection. Surely they could do better.

  Nice clean grocery store. Staff are always around so you have no problem getting help. I find that it's not always that busy so you can park really close to the entrance. They have a great produce, meat, and seafood section. I haven't tried their bakery but it looks great!

  This Sobeys sells beer until 11pm every day except Sunday which is very handy. However as a grocery store this place is terrible. I've been going here since it opened and on multiple occasions they've been out of important ingredients needed for a recipe (chicken thighs, limes, avocados, fresh mint, rice noodles, pork tenderloin, etc.). Last visit, they were out of all types of ground beef! When I asked the guy at the meat counter about it he said I'd have to wait an hour and a half for some. That's ridiculous. The staff is generally pretty friendly but as a grocery store I'd say go to a larger one- this place will most likely be out of what you need.

  Great place in downtown for fruits, vegetables and groceries. Loved the freshly cooked food. Relished the soups and caramelized potatoes.

  It is a very big store having almost everything you require for daily use. It also has a variety of meal options cold, hot, grilled which you can eat there or take away. I could find vegetarian food as well in form of panini which i found really tasty
