“Great store big roomy . It is not as bad as cost co . But another thing is the bums well fare cases out side your store . There should be a law against this . I think your store is great but the bums is another thing”
“Andrew (since 2025) was really thoughtful and accomodated us during our transaction. He seems nice and careful. He even packed our items for us. I usally dont get this service. He knows the loyalty membership well and ask if I wanted to use my Scene points and if i have one. He even asked if I am a student or no and asked if we needed bags. Very proactive! :)”
“Excellent ice cream cones. The staff is helpful and prices are reasonable for a convivence store. This store has been a staple in the downtown region for decades.”
“Staff are kind, though the selection of food items can be mournful and prices higher than elsewhere on the island. In any case, there are fresh vegetables and fruits, frozen items, milk products (all yoghurts here are sweetened, btw) and household necessities.The adjacent liquor shop has 2 local-ish products ! A beer from Nova Scotia (Spindrift) and a blueberry wine.”
“Such a niche grocery store! my favorite place to shop, employees very helpful and friendly especially this one guy (He knows who he is) I have recommended this Sobeys location to all my friends Have never had a bad experience!”
“Sobeys is fantastic! It’s our go-to supermarket with a great selection of fresh produce, quality meats, and pantry staples. We’re especially happy they offer some halal options, which makes shopping even better for our family. The store is always clean and well-organized, and the staff are friendly and helpful. It’s so convenient to have such a great store close to home!”
“Been shopping here for a year. No problems. Go to the cooked food people for water otherwise you'll have to pay or go thirsty. Who keeps changing the store hours on Google? Feb2023 it was changed to closing at 8pm again when they close at 10 and always have.”

“I stopped by here to pickup some breakfast, dinner and snack options. They had some nice organic seedless raspberry jam, loaf of bread, salsa, tortilla chips, garlic & herb pork chops, Salmon stuffed with shrimp/cream cheese/spinach, salads (Caesar & Garden) and the best Potato Twice Baked dish. It had creamy mashed potatoes, cheddar cheese, chives and went perfectly with the meat.
The prices were surprisingly reasonable as I thought they would be much higher being on an island. This location is also very close to downtown St John’s and was less than a 10 minute walk from our place.
If you have a place with a kitchen or just want an already prepared meal they have many great options and their prices are fair!”
“Great local grocery store with super friendly and helpful staff. Their bakery and meals to go is the best thing since sliced bread (which they will do for you, BTW ?). The store is well stocked and has great weekly specials. Definitely worth a visit!”
