“Another excellent experience at Healthy Planet. We were impressed, as always by how knowledgeable and helpful the nutritionist Iren Chapman was about supplementation, protocols and health.
Honestly, Iren is a fountain of knowledge, eager to listen to you, and provide expert advice about how to deal with your specific issues.
We typically will go to HP on days that we know she will be there. I know for a fact that she's there two days a week ... definitely Fridays, and possible Wednesday(?).
Kudos to Healthy Planet for having friendly, knowledgeable and experienced customer support people like Iren on staff!

“The customer service at this store is simply amazing, I did not get her name but the lady working there Monday afternoon helped me find all the items I was looking for. She was very patient, friendly and made sure I had everything I was looking for. I really loved the experience and will definitely be back!! Well deserved 5 stars! Thanks!!”
“Arties has been a staple of ours for several years now. Though, the quality of their premade sandwiches has dropped drastically (much less meat/cheese/toppings and 13+ dollars). I used to get them weekly, and now I never do. We also used to be able to buy pasta by the ~100g, but now only can buy massive portions at a time. Regularly they have day old bread sales and it’s an awesome deal. Also good pizza dough.”
“Lovely 🥰 little shop on Barton street, Hamilton
Great 😊 spot for sandwiches 🥪, and fun 🤩 European goodies
Store owner also ❤ lovely 🥰 to chat with (name unknown)”
“Bosnian Specialties is hands down the best! Their service and customer care are out of this world—always friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure every visit is a great experience. And the food? Absolutely amazing! Authentic, flavorful, and made with love. If you're looking for the best Bosnian cuisine and top-tier hospitality, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!”
“We had döner here, which was very delicious, authentic, and fresh. They also have really tasty bread, which we both ate and bought. The staff are friendly and welcoming, making you feel like you're in Turkey. They even gave us free baklava! In the store, you can find everything you need to make Turkish food. We bought börek and sucuk, and their quality was excellent. The only thing was that the music was Latin, whereas I would have preferred to hear Turkish or Azerbaijani music while eating. But overall, even though it's far from me, I will definitely go back again.”
“Walked in yesterday for 1st time for Patties whichni were told were the best. No lies. Incredible products at good prices. Friendly staff who greeted and helped me when k walked in.
I will def be back for more food.”
“One of the best stores in Hamilton. The quality of the meat, produce, and daily essentials is always top-notch. The staff (specially the lady at the cashier) are friendly, helpful, and make you feel welcomed every time you visit. The store is clean, organized, and has everything you need. Highly recommended for anyone looking for fresh products and great service❤️”
“This Latin grocery store has all the essentials (milk, eggs, cheese, limes, lemons, tomatoes, tortillas ) and more! Great prices too. I have visited several times in the past few months. Their cheese selection is great and many of them pair well with the prepared foods by Mesa, like the chicken (my favourite) saves me a lot of time in the kitchen (and a lot of money, hard times) I have picked up a week's worth of meals for about $60 (single)
And to top it off the store is beautiful. So happy to have a business like this one close by. Thank you!”

“Al Naveed is probably the finest tasting chicken tikka and beef seekh kebabs I’ve had in the GTHA - I’ll go on to say as much as probably the best tikkas I’ve ever had in life. Period.
Are they cheap? No
Is the service quick? Not at all!
Is it worth it ? Absolutely!
As with other restaurants who’ll prepare already stored half cooked food upon receiving orders, al Naveed prepares your order from scratch - hence the wait. But it’s so worth it that I drive all the way from Mississauga to Stoney creek for this one meal!”
“The subs here are classic, and the staff are always so polite and friendly. we’ve been enjoying subs here for 20+ years and hope to enjoy for decades to come!”
“The Manager that always is working 24/7 is such a nice guy. The deli is always so fresh and keeps on getting new salami which I love. That is my experience here!”
“All the staff is so nice but I have to say Shelly is my favourite employee in this store. She is so friendly and nice and always helpful. This store is always neat and clean and it is easy to find a product but if you can’t, a staff member is ready to help. Thanks U. Wentworth staff. 😊”

“The store is very well organized, with shelves that are always fully stocked and maintained with excellent cleanliness. It also offers a great selection of classic childhood candies.”
“Small natural grocery store. Large supplement aisle. Service is always great. Produce, dairy and meat section fill one wall. They often have fresh baked goods and flowers. Cleaning aisle in the middle. Frozen along the back wall. Front of store has a hot table with soup and other take away food. Paid street or lot parking options.”
“Best African store in Hamilton the lowest price for all the products I like going there every days just because I see joy there to buy a lot of cheap food stuff best customer service best staff friendly people especially the staff Laby B and the big madam herself are very friendly and Gbenga and others just go there and get cheaper fresh from Nigeria there”
“Yesterday I only needed a couple items so I brought my baby inside with me in her car seat only rather than her stroller. As I was shopping an employee who I think was the store manager, came up to me with a shopping cart that had a special car seat holder and offered it to me.
I politely declined only because I do enjoy carrying my daughter, she’s my arm workout, but I was very appreciative and have not had anyone do something like that before while shopping. As a new mom it was very nice to have had a complete stranger be that observant and kind.
My husband and I are addicted to the Farm Boy brand cookies, keep making them the same.
The only thing I do wish was offered in store was a few essential household items. Such as paper towels, toilet paper, facial tissues etc. I like shopping at Farm Boy but it is a bit of a pain to need to make a second grocery store trip just for those others types of items. Maybe consider bringing in a single brand of all these products to save space? I don’t think you would need to have a lot of price point variety, most people will spend a few extra dollars for the convenience of everything being under one roof. I know I would.”
“Our loyal Fortinos has always provided us with everyday necessities of life and, especially in the time of Covid, proved to be a happy, safe, and senses pleasing place to shop and relax.”
“Great service and friendly staff they helped alot in shopping and was so easy for me to get new items. Loved the store and staff. Special Thanks to Davina and kathy. Highly recommended to visit”
“I ordered catering and was so pleased with everything! The menu offerings, customer service and prices; everything was made fresh that day, there were no delays, the whole process was just so easy and made planning for our event so much easier.”
“Eastern Mart and Timmys have catered for us on numerous occasions. The food is always fresh, flavourful and a huge crowd pleaser! Just today we tried their nihari - it was so tasty! In the past we ordered roasted lambs with all the trimmings. Their team came and set everything up for us. Presentation was beautiful, and the food was absolutely delicious! Can always count on them for quality, taste, freshness, and service with a smile!”
“Freshco grew on me - it was a slow burn - I realized after I moved as a “Costco & No-Frills” steady shopper but now super close to Freshco - this store is the perfect in between as it bridges, the gap between quality and price. It’s not the most expensive store and it’s not the cheapest, but it has qualities about the way they organize , and quality of products that I like, especially in meats and produce. I’m in !”
“Convenient, and they've got a friendly staff. only complaint is the entrance is kinda silly. everyone exiting and entering through the same door. Other than that, my favourite grocery store in the neighborhood”
“Great Asian Grocery store, very warm and friendly owner. He is here from last 40 years and running his business. All pulses, masalas, groceries and some fresh vegetables were there .”
“I come to this metro quite a bit. I just wanted to say how great Enza is. Every time I come to the store she is always so nice and friendly and goes out of her way to help everyone. You can tell she actually cares about the customers and not just doing her job.
She really is one of the nicest and kindest people I’ve ever met. It’s nice seeing someone who is always so positive and helpful. Enza definitely deserves some recognition for how she treats people.”

“I'm a chef, so looking for funky ingredients is always on my list. This store does a pretty good job of satisfying my needs when it comes to odd ingredients. Love that they have a handful of parking spots out front. Prices are pretty good and stuff are usually helpful. Just a tip, if you can, Google the item you're looking for in advance and have the Chinese characters ready. I don't think it's that any of the staff are unhelpful, but some of them don't speak great English, so having their native language at the tip of your fingers definitely helps out.”
“Jennifer from the pizza station at pane fresco was amazing! Thank you for your kind kindness and amazing customer service. Greatly appreciated!! Keep up the good work!”
“Nice clean store, friendly staff. But watch out ! BLack price tags are sale items , BUT ONLY if you have a scene card . ( but who wants to shop where you NEED to read the FINE PRINT on the price signs) I have A SCENE card , but often forget to use it ! So on pricipal, I won't shop here very often.”
