I live nearby and appreciate the convenience and variety of health and snack foods. The prices are a bit high for a person on disability, so I’ve avoided the store in recent years. Although, I was feeling like a treat and so I stopped in for some sour gummy’s and jalapeño flavoured cassava chips. Unfortunately, when I got home and began eating the cassava chips, I was disappointed with the flavour that I would describe as “dusty”, as if they’d been around for a while. Perhaps it’s a less popular item, and/or has been left open, or around for a while longer than it should. However, unlike other commenters, I found the staff to be friendly and well mannered, but was definitely put off by the dusty distaste. I’m debating if it’s worth the time to try returning them for an alternative snack. I probably should’ve kept the receipt but as a lifelong patron of the Bulk Barn I was not expecting the distasteful experience. I’ll also mention the cost of the two items I bought, almost $25 for two small bags of snacks. Probably a sign of the general rise in food costs across the board these days. Otherwise, I’ve been a loyal fan of the Bulk Barn since I was introduced to the store by my mom as a child. Perhaps I could’ve requested a sample before committing to the bag of cassava chips. Maybe next time.

I love that you can buy exactly what you need for 1 recipe or a whole year's supply in one store. Always has quality products that bring me back for more. The staff in Waterdown are fantastic & eager to help you find something. I just wish hot lips ? were more available; I guess it's not just my favourite candy

Wouldn’t know what this store is like - because a staff member would not let me in if I was not wearing a face mask - told her I was exempt -she was very abrupt, actually keep blocking me - stepping in front of me - all in all she made a scene & I will NEVER shop there!This was my first & last time there

I drive to this location from Burlington as it’s always clean and staff are pleasant and polite. I’ve been coming here for years and never have had any issues.

On Christmas Eve day, I had to rush into this store to find an ingredient (xanthan gum), that I didn’t know I needed, for a gluten-free dessert that I’d never made before. I had the good luck to get some help from Chiara. All I needed was 1tsp but this product was only sold in a 124g bag for $7.79! Holy guacamole! I apologized and left, in the hopes of finding it elsewhere at a better price. A nearby health food store had it too…. 240g @ $21!! That was waaay more than all the dessert ingredients. So I headed back to BB with my head hung in shame but much wiser. Chiara was very kind and didn’t laugh at me, as she was certainly entitled to do. Next time, I won’t mess around and just buy my stuff at BB. Thanks Chiara!

Was a bit disappointed when I asked the young guy that was sweeping a question about a price. It was for a jerky treat for dogs and the price said 47.15, I asked if this was the correct price? Due to the fact that it was one treat. His response was " I don't know " "If that's what it says then that's the price " he Was not helpful at all :(

I live a two minute drive away from here and I personally drive to burlington to go to another location. I bring my own containers and bags and the staff have a problem with it every time. The lady at the cash is very rude like the other reviewers have said. I only come here if I absolutely need to otherwise i drive out of my way.

Waterdown's own Bulk Barn. Centrally located. Great staff, very helpful. Usual good selection of items. Happy to note they are enforcing current safety protocols.

I wasn't at bulk barn. I was at spirit leaf to the left which I might add isn't anything like bulk barn unless your looking for herbalessence remedies.
