Metro Inc. is a prominent Canadian food distribution company with over 600 stores across Quebec and Ontario. Founded in 1947, the company has annual sales exceeding $11 billion and employs over 65,000 people in the two provinces. This particular Metro location, situated just off Royal York Road north of Eglinton Avenue, is described as conveniently located and reasonably well-equipped, though not as well-stocked as a larger Loblaws Superstore nearby. Customers praise the store's cleanliness and the attentive staff, with one employee, Piri, singled out for her exceptional helpfulness and service. While the selection may not be as extensive as other Metro locations, the store is generally well-regarded for meeting customers' everyday needs.
I don't usually shop Metro but stopped at this one since I was passing by. Surprised me by not having what I wanted - malt vinegar - although they had at least 25 vinegars. Also the parking lot was not as clear of snow as other supermarkets this week. Overall disappointed.

Metro is always stocked and reliable. Good selection. Great customer service.
I like the gluten free options that are not available at ghetto No Frills.
