The best grocery store on the island! Such an amazing variety of produce that you won't find anywhere else. Very good prices on the produce too. Their meat is from Glenwood Meats, which is the best you can get! And you have to try some of their store made food, especially the green sauce. There's a small Cafe on site, and lots of parking. It's hard to go anywhere else!

I love coming here for the unique variety of foods. I love their deli section. It’s great to find such a huge selection of produce. You do have to be careful with your selection (as with any grocery store). It’s a great place to find specialty items, but you can be sure the price matches.Also if you don’t have bags, you can buy one if theirs or use one of the conveniently located boxes.Having the attached cafe is a nice treat to have after grocery shopping…grab a drink and treat to enjoy outside or on the drive home.

Not Dirt Cheap" as the sign says. Many items in others stores will be 20% less...they are a local single location so it is expected some things will cost a bit more. Does feel goudgy though. Produce is good ."

I mostly shop weekly specials, otherwise prices here run 25+ percent higher than the grocery store. Best selection by far.Not sure where your seen around town" prices are coming from. You show atulfo mangoes at $2.95 to $3.50 at 4 stores. They are 4/$5 at Thrifty

Lovely local high end produce and butchery. Meats are fantastic and the Peruvian style rotisserie chicken is a steal compared to local grocery. Really impressive produce. Soft ice cream in the coffee bar. Higher priced and better curated. And a local musician to boot.

Went for the first time yesterday and what a cool place this is! Big, fresh produce area & even bigger area for everything else. Very kind staff and bonus we found a sauce we've been looking for for 3 months now while travelling!! Awesome shop!

Such a cool selection of good looking foods. Lots of local products. It is too bad that 1- I can't afford to eat this good food all the time and 2- the great looking LOCAL stuff is twice the price of something shipped all the way from unoccupied Tibet.Lovely place but only for special occasions"."

Good selection of fruits and veggies and quality meats. Nice weekly deals come out every Thursday.

Generally good selection - but not entirely honest in their comparison pricing. Today they show a 'comparison' of tomato costs (theirs $1.99/lb) ranging from $3.99 to $2.49 a pound 'elsewhere' - when the Thrifty's 3 blocks away has the same tomatoes (fresh BC hothouse) on for 88 cents a pound. I will never believe THEIR comparison prices again.
