“A true gem! This family-owned bakery and grocery store is serving up the best bread you will ever eat. The quality is unmatched because they make their bread by hand in a traditional tandoor oven creating authentic, old-world flavours. They’ve brought years of experience, technique, and true passion to this place. Beyond the incredible bread, they have fresh sweets, a great selection of pantry staples, and bulk items. The owners are absolutely wonderful. Genuine, salt-of-the-earth people. I don't live close, but I go out of my way to stock up once a month. It freezes beautifully, and from the freezer to a hot oven, it’s just as fresh and smoky as the day it was made.”

“Excellent Convenience Store & Great Service Max Mini Mart is a very clean and convenient place that has almost everything you need at reasonable prices. They offer Purolator drop-off and pickup, U-Haul services, Western Union, MoneyGram, Lotto Max and other lottery tickets, as well as photocopying and scanning services. They also have a great selection of snacks, candies, cold drinks, and beer. It’s a one-stop shop for many everyday needs. I especially want to mention CHETAN SHARMA who was very friendly, kind, and helpful with customers. His excellent customer service really makes the experience better. Highly recommended”

“Super clean and organized shop. I went in for a passport and was out in 5 minutes. Everything is set up for photos already (and well lit) so there is no waiting to get the area ready. It cost less than $20 for a digital photo that was emailed to me before I left the till. The gentlemen at the store knows what is required for the picture and application so you leave with what you need. There is parking and a set of lights at the entrance, so getting in and out is easy. I came here based on others reviews and I hope this one can help someone else.”

“My family has been coming to Murray's Variety for years — we're currently on our third generation of customers! The owner and staff are genuinely wonderful. Over the years they have gone out of their way to be kind and helpful so many times, and in ways that have absolutely nothing to do with making a sale. One day I went in hoping to buy a wrench to fix a problem I was having with my e-bike. They didn't have exactly what I needed, so the owner got his own wrench from his car and fixed my bike himself.. not exactly standard convenience-store service! 😂 That's only one example of a list that's too long to post here, but it demonstrates the kind of people they are. They also have a great selection of pretty much everything you might need; including a surprisingly good selection of plants and flowers. It's increasingly rare to find a neighbourhood business where people genuinely know and care about their regular customers. We're very lucky to have Murray's in our neighbourhood. Five stars — and apparently minor roadside assistance too. 😂”

“The staff are all very nice in Party Land and been reliable for a while now. They have a good source of cards and last minute grab and go items if you need it. There is the Canada Post located in this store as well, just make sure you're equipped with what you need for pick up or shipping! They have some good barriers in place for this location for postal service. The Canada Post mail box is just outside as well.”

“Very nice people, recently moved into the neighbourhood and their service is amazing. Its the best one out of the three convenience stores in the plaza. Please disregard other reviews, as a well-mannered citizen I vouch for their customer service.”

“I saw some comments about his rude behaviour but my experience was good! The owner isn’t a native speaker and he’s pretty focused to his work so I think that’s why he’s quiet. The photo turns out okay - quick and cheap. He also gave me 2 extra photos for free. However if you are looking for a photo with a touchup service, this isn’t the place. Also, one customer was demanding the owner to put on his earbuds while he was watching news. This is more rude than the owner’s behaviour.”

“I had a great experience at Shoppers Drug Mart thanks to Jessica and Salima. They were both very helpful, professional, and friendly throughout my visit.

Thank you, Jessica and Salima, for going above and beyond. Highly recommend this location!”

“Had a really great experience at Kingsway Variety! I stopped by to grab some snacks and a flower bouquet, and I was pleasantly surprised by the huge selection of flowers and bouquets they have. 🌸💐 There were so many options to choose from, and the guy at the counter was extremely friendly, patient, and genuinely helpful. He went out of his way to help me find the perfect bouquet as well as exceptional wrapping skills . They also have a great variety of greeting cards for different occasions, along with plenty of snack options. The store was very clean, organized, and well maintained. Great selection, great staff, and excellent customer service. Definitely recommend stopping by Kingsway Variety! 😊”

“Had such a lovely experience at S Market thanks to Shaswat! My friend Emma and I were enjoying a night out and decided to stop by the store, and he genuinely made what would’ve been a quick convenience store run such a memorable part of our night. He was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and kind from the moment we walked in. His customer service was amazing, but more than that, it was his warm personality and lovely mannerisms that really stood out. He took the time to chat with us, made us laugh, and just had such a positive energy that you don’t come across every day. It’s the little interactions like this that can really make someone’s night, and Shaswat definitely did that for us. You can tell he genuinely cares about making customers feel welcome and comfortable. S Market is lucky to have him — thank you, Shaswat, for being so wonderful and making our night that much better! 😊 We’ll definitely remember you the next time we stop by!”

“This place has saved me not once but twice today! Forgotten ingredients for Christmas dinner - and they had exactly what I needed. It’s not cheap but comparable to a Rabba or another store that would be open when regular grocery stores would be closed. Just make sure you check expiry dates but mine were good. Thanks!!”

“I have child with Special Needs who required assistance today and went into this store for help. I cannot thank the staff enough for the care they showed my child. I realize that has nothing to do with products, but it does say a great deal about the people selling them. Thank you!”

Plus, they have everything you need – snacks, drinks, household essentials – all in one place. The store layout was easy to navigate, and they even had a great selection of grab-and-go items. Definitely coming back!”
