“The clerk l spoke to was difficult to understand and l had to explain several times before she understood what l was asking . The the quality of staff knowledge has lowered recently. And l have been a customer for many years.”
“Always pleasantly greeted at the door with offers of help & warm cookies. Acknowledged & recognized as a fairly regular customer who drives up from Cambridge. Love the ribs, shrimp, sweet potato fries, lasagne & shepherds pie. Nice bright, clean store. Keep up the good work!”
“Wonderful selection of specialty bulk items! I’ve found my favourite nutritional yeast, tvp, and molasses here. They have local options where they make sense. Prices seem competitive aside from fresh staples. One of the reasons I’m happy to live in KW.”
“had a really great experience shopping at A to Z African and Caribbean Groceries! They have a great variety of African and Caribbean products, including foods, spices, snacks, beauty products, and many hard-to-find items.
The store has a welcoming atmosphere, and the staff are friendly, helpful, and always willing to assist. I especially appreciate being able to find products that remind me of home all in one place. I really recommend it”
“Today me and my mom were at the Rouaa Food Market, we got everything we need and went to the casheir. Her name was Ruba. She greeted us with a smile, was incredibly kind, friendly, and REALLY professional with her job as a casheir. She made the checkout process really easy and quick. My mom had questions about the sales and Ruba explained everything CLEARLY. One thing that reqlly stood out was how she asked us if we need help lifting the heavy items from our cart onto the counter, this showed how much she genuinly cares about the customers and how important it is for her to represent the market she is working in, in a good way. Especially her positive attitude and EXCELLENT customer service made our shopping really enjoyable. Employees like her make a big difference of how the customers perspectives change about a specific place to shop at, which did really really my mom's since she shops everywhere, she loved her experience there with Ruba's kind and respectful heart. I really hope she gets recognized for the job she does by the manager. Thank you for providing such excellent service and finding employees like her!”

“Kane provided excellent customer service today while handling the cash. He was polite, respectful, and maintained a positive attitude throughout the interaction. He greeted customers warmly, processed transactions efficiently, and ensured a smooth experience at checkout. His professionalism and courteous behavior truly stood out.
Great job, Kane!”
“Great selection and reasonable prices for the caliber of food available. The atmosphere is great and might possibly be the best grocery layout I've seen, so clean and organized.”
“I went back into Westmount and Ottawa m&m meat shop today . I said I wouldn’t but I did. Met up with the same lady as last time. Differences were worked out. She is quite knowledgable and was able to help me beyond my expectations.”
“Love this store, sooo many great goods, everything is always fresh, welcoming stuff , neatly organized. The speciality is the smoked stuff, beacon, sausages, ribs all of it tastes like in Europe. We come here for the last 4 years, never been let down. Highly recommend!”
“Owner and employees are always helpful and pleasant. You won’t get this type of service at any other grocery store. Thanks for bringing in more variety to the store. It is clear the effort is there to compete in pricing with big grocery chains but keep in mind, this is a wonderful, privately owned business that we should all be proud to support.”
“This is by far the best place for fresh meat. I have been to almost every place in kitchener and Alberta and it's my only place I will ever go toThey're marinated wings are the best you'll ever have. Not too spicy or anythingIf you can stop and support local”
“The service is always great. I've been served by a couple different employees and they have always been wonderful. We were there again today and they let us know that the coupon we were using was better than the seniors discount day. I typically only buy food from here when it is on sale. I do find it a little overpriced but that's not the store's fault. When it's on sale it's usually a good deal.”
“Suchwinder is so lovely to see everyday , she’s always smiling or cracking a joke , while scanning the groceries super quick .. makes the experience in shopping so much better , I hardly to to loblaws any more”
“Kiddos and I love bailey's, online ordering was a breeze. Glad to see them managing to grow a bit in these wild times, will definitely miss their lovely staff and local selection now that we are moving out of town. Thanks the Rachael and team for keeping families fed and farmers in business right now.”
“The pharmacists here have always been friendly and professional. Really, never had a complaint of any kind. Note that the GPS location in Google seems to be out of whack; the pharmacy is in the Sobeys store of course, not a block down the street.”

“I love this store and particularly this branch. They always have a well stocked inventory and carry what I need, no matter how exotic the ingredient. The staff is also very helpful.”
“I am so grateful for this pharmacy. The pharmacist is wonderful and really cares about you and your health. It has taken me years to find a pharmacy to stick with and I am so glad I found this place.
Pharmacy assistants also very kind and knowledgeable. Wonderful customer service.”
“I only needed a small portion of spices for our Fusion cooking class here at the Salvation Army. Sami took care of helping me obtain a small portion. Great customer service ❤️”
“Ample parking. Clean, easily accessible store with everything you need. I'm not from the area and it was my first time in New Hamburg. I found the store easily and found my item easily inside the store. Checkout was quick and friendly.”
“Just wanted to give a shout out to this place. A new find recently and every time I've been there everyone is suoer friendly and welcoming. Great stocking of products too for a variety store.”
“This Walmart has been my go-to grocer for years. They have some of the best deals and a massive variety of stuff. Compared to the other local Walmarts around, this one is one of the most organized in terms of shelving and overall layout. It doesn't feel overly cluttered like the Walmart in ira needles for instance. Lines aren't long and they have 2 massive self checkout areas. Customer service isn't exceptional but typically nothing too bad. Fitting rooms are often out of service and there just might be one open and the surrounding area is often messy (clothes piled in carts, and the pyjamas are all over the place) but still functional. They also have a pretty solid international food isle with a lot of asian groceries I can't find at other classic grocers. They have a big selection of ramen! Yum!!”
“Had the best experience with Mackenzie in the flower department. She was so very nice and helpful with everything. I wanted to pick out some flowers for some pictures the next day and she suggested wet packing them which helped them last. She arranged the bouquet in such a pretty way that i couldnt stop gushing over it— exactly what i wanted.”
“A great place to walk around, shop for souvenirs, and experience some local culture. Lots of interesting little shops and things to see. Really enjoyed visiting!”
“Very friendly and helpful staff!! Especially the one with curly hair that has a name tag that starts with K something. She did an excellent job helping me with my groceries and definitely deserves a raise, best service i’ve ever received! Well done”
“Beechwood Zehrs is located in the Beechwood Plaza at the corner of Fisher-Hallman and Erb St W. They have upgraded some the inside, including new stands for fruits and veggies, nicer layout throughout the store. There is regular checkouts as well as self serve checkouts.”
“Always in stock. Friendly staff. Clean. Organized. Lines don’t get too long. Produce is fresh. Lots of options in the other aisles. My favourite store .”
“I would like to recognize a wonderful staff member at FreshCo.
I believe she works in the dairy section, as she was stocking chocolate milk when I saw her. Even though she appeared to be busy with her own duties, she immediately came over to help when I was trying to reach a heavy case of sports drinks from the top shelf.
The item was quite heavy, but she handled it quickly, professionally, and with a positive attitude. She did not hesitate to assist, and her kindness made my shopping experience much easier and more enjoyable.
Excellent customer service like this deserves recognition. Thank you for your hard work and for going above and beyond to help customers. FreshCo is fortunate to have employees like her.”
“Pfenning's offers AMAZING customer service and produce. Thank you for your commitment to sustainable local and organic farming. You make it possible for our catering business Hearty Catering to offer outstanding ingredients for our catering events and our CCNM location cafe in Toronto. Special thanks to Jessica who goes above and beyond to make sure we receive the ingredient we want -- like fresh leeks picked this afternoon for our order tomorrow morning!”
