Mar-Vals Sentry Food Store is a full-service local grocery market. Reviews consistently note that the store is clean and the staff is friendly, helpful, and local, with good management. Customers find the products good and can get anything they need, with the store willing to order special requests. The meat is better than at other chains, and specific items like the jumbo eggs, fried chicken, deli sandwiches, and fresh French bread are highlighted as yummy or good. However, the primary concern across reviews is that prices are high, over the top, and feel like price gouging, especially since COVID. Shoppers express frustration at getting very few groceries for a high cost. The deli service receives significant criticism for long wait times, with staff often chatting instead of serving customers. Other noted issues include chicken that sometimes doesn't look fresh, a need for a better organic produce section, fruit that lacks flavor, and occasional problems like moldy cheese. The store has solar panels and blooming trees outside, which are appreciated.
Artisan butcher products are amazing especially the sausages and great quality raw meat and fish selection.
