“Love coming here. Great atmosphere and very friendly service. Above everything, the food is amazing. Beef carne, chicken de pollo, tres leches, all is amazing. I always buy too much lol.”
“The staff are super friendly and always make you feel welcome. Prices are fair, and their fresh sandwiches are honestly so good! Feels like a cozy neighborhood spot you can count on.”
“A nice grocery store if you are looking for Dutch foods as well as other European and South African foods. Great selection of licorices! Many different tulip bulbs to buy here as well.”
“I have been shopping more here lately. Their produce is fresher than what I see at Billings and they have a good selection of dry goods for such a small store. I appreciate that they support local suppliers such as the Soyarie.”
“Broccoli was not fresh, maybe it was a one time problem. Most of the time the produce is good.
Dear Sobeys, please maintain the original Farmboy standards - please.”

“My wife phoned over to the Osgoode Foodland to order an extra large Fruit & an extra large vegetable tray for a Canada Day party we hosted both trays fantastic, fresh fruits and vegetables, looked and tasted great, we are still picking away at them on the third day.
Thanks to whoever prepared them!

“Small Caribbean store with very friendly chatty owner (Captain Sunshine ). I wish the selection of fresh fruits and fresher vegetables were available but I know sourcing it can be hard unless you arein Toronto. Did buy a nice Dutch pot and some Jamaican sweet treats. Will be back here again for sure”

Makes this an easy
5 STAR ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for me??”
“I buy my malts from there. I intend to buy lentils and other groceries from there if I could find a way you get it home. It is inaccessible to my motorized chair. However, the staff is amazing; patient, generous and very pleasant.”
“The lady helping me tonight was super nice and helpful!! It’s not always easy finding vegan desserts but she was very helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you so much, I will definitely be back for more of their products.”
“This review is long overdue. I have shopped here for years. I worked in the Glebe in 2015 and again in 2022 through 2024. This is one of the nicest grocery stores in the city. The selection is excellent for the size of store and they have some specialty products I rarely see. Kira checked me out and expertly packed my bags, as I had the pleasure of shopping today! I was able to get the Guinness for my Irish stew too! Ran into Ian, such a terrific manager, and was assisted by Don who helped me take my groceries out down a very slushy sidewalk and waited until my Uber arrived. He helped load up and saw me safely on my way home. I really can't say enough about the service way more then 5. I would give them 100 stars. Thank you!”
“This meat shop is simply fantastic! The quality of their meat is always top-notch—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cut. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, making every visit smooth and enjoyable. I really appreciate how affordable their prices are without ever compromising on quality. It’s become my trusted spot whenever I want the best meat for my family. Highly recommended!”
“A great place to find imported South Asian, Soth East Asian, African, and Latin American seasonings and food stuffs that don't show up in chain grocery stores in South Ottawa.”
“It's a great store with great staff. The only reason it gets 4 ot of 5 stars is the low number of cashes, and good odds that sale proteins will not get restocked till 9 or 10 am.”
“Awesome store, except for increasing prices on many products. But still find a lot of in-store deals. And they are always well stocked on sale items advertised in flyers. And a very well kept store.”
“Liking to explore the various ethnic or world regions stores.
Here a pretty good choice.
Good selection of teas.
Lots of other items to explore.
Prices reasonable here.
Employees nice folks.”
“It's nice going to metro and always seeing the same people. Really nice and friendly staff.
Once I was a bit short, I told the young man who was working the self checkout that I was off a bit. And he went and got enough for me to afford. It was only 10¢ but it's the act of kindness that matters.”

“The best customer service! Do you ever go to 4 different locations looking for that one item that no one cares to go and look for? Finally after searching for my organic tortilla wraps I found them! This lovely young gentlemen in the bakery section wasn’t able to find them so he went and got his manager (whose name was Mark) and he helped us look all over the store! They had been moved and he wasted no time helping us look. He was so kind and caring and even made us laugh! This experience makes me love coming to this location. If this is Mark’s boss reading this I hope you know that those two employees are wonderful!”

“Always clean and always well stocked. The only thing I would suggest is not bringing anyone who requires a handicap spot because there's always people illegally parked in the handicap parking spots.”
“I’m giving this Independent Grocer a full 5-star rating solely because of one standout employee: Jeremy in the bakery section.
In a world where many employees are just punching the clock to collect a cheque, Jeremy went above and beyond and was genuinely invested in making sure I got exactly what I wanted. Jeremy does his job like he has skin in the game—as if he owns shares in the place.
It’s rare to come across that level of service these days. The store’s lucky to have him, and honestly, so are the customers.”

“My favourite grocery store by far. You can tell that the owners truly care about the community, and the store... *Chefs kiss*. The produce is fresh, well stocked and organized. The isles are clear of clutter and clean. Then you have the staff, they are always so helpful and kind. I recommend that you don't even waste your time with the competition, it's just a great store overall and deserves your business.”
“Like all the local farm produce they offer. Find favorite foods that I can't find anywhere else. Well worth the extra 5 minutes it takes me to get there.
Very friendly atmosphere.”
