I love Pete's hard to find unique and import items. If you're looking for respite from the…read morenever-ending monotony that is shopping at the regular grocery stores, I definitely recommend it here. When you walk into the store, the first thing you notice is all the British imported food and snack items.. Reminds me a lot of my childhood and I usually buy something for nostalgia sake. Right beyond that is beverage display case with all sorts of drinks you'd rarely see elsewhere. I especially enjoy their local and import ginger beer selection, as well as Ribena. Beyond that the store is a mixture of exotic cheeses, excellent produce, a deli, health food aisles and the British butchery. This butchery is especially known for its Nova Scotia lamb, which is the best I've bought anywhere around here. The beef steaks are a close second. Needless to say, due to the nature of the products sold here, the prices are exorbitant.. I keep Pete's as a treat to go buy a few luxury food items if I haven't entirely blown my food budget for the month. If my budget hasn't been blown yet, it's sure to be so once I'm done at the Frootique. While many of the items are quite unique, there are many food items that are..items which can be purchased at your regular grocery store for half the price (ie. many of the dairy products). I also think the space the store occupies is much too small... you constantly feel like you're in a traffic jam trying to navigate the narrowly jam packed aisles, and always a hair breadth away from knocking things over.. the store is so cramped, I picture knocking something over as having a domino effect.. dropped a bag of chips?...there goes the whole aisle. The check out staff are fast, friendly and on the ball with keeping registers open. I don't necessarily see this as good customer service, though... since the store is so cramped, if long lines were to form then customers in line to pay would take up half the retail space (I've seen this happen here more than once). I definitely recommend this place, though, even if just to window shop. You might discover something new on every visit.

I often pick a odd thing of meat up here (and it is usually pretty darn swell) Check it out, and if you are in need of a haircut or coffee they are also just around the corner and very, very close. Great spot. I will be a returning customer for sure. Thanks for making the shopping experience more fun.

The peppers were much more expensive, as well as the tomatoes and whole chickens. The peppers were shriveled up and soft. Bananas are 1.49/lb which is ridiculous. And they are not even organic. I would never go out of my way to shop here like I would Gateway. The only thing I saw cheaper was re-frozen sandwich meats that looked like crap and bags of chips. VERY disappointing to say the least.

We were in Halifax on a cruise and wanted to buy some Candian treats, preferrably maple candies,…read morefor gifts back home. Google maps revealed that this grocery store is a short walk from the cruise terminals, though you have to walk away from it a bit because of the railroad tracks. We found displays of maple syrup but had to ask for help finding the maple candy. It was in the bakery department and there was only one option but it met our need. There is plenty of parking for those with cars.

They're whole heartedly against their fellow Canadians and will take every opportunity to raise…read moreprices and keep them there to gouge Canadians. Then lower their prices by a fraction of what was raised just so they can act like they're doing us a favor. Highest prices for food in eastern Canada AND the US eastern seaboard. We are poor as dirt here but that doesn't stop them from keeping their prices as high as possible for as long as possible. Shop at walmart, let all their over priced meats rot on the shelves (as they are, just wait a day and 90% of the meat will be 50% off and likely rotten the next morning but they'll gladly sell it to you) Personal peave: Every shopping cart sounds like a dump tuck full of sheet metal because they refuse to service them as it would cost money and might make the whole experience slightly less horrific. If you let a clerk know about a huge spill people are walking all over they'll audibly sigh and roll their eyes at you.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Cool little urban grocery store. Has locally sourced products. Baked goods…read moreand prepared foods are available, in addition to regular groceries. The Slightly Longer Version: This urban grocery store reminds me a lot of The Kitchen Table of days gone by (in Toronto). It has a small amount of groceries and has baked goods from local suppliers as well as prepared ready-to-eat foods. They had some locally brewed kombucha too. Prices weren't too high, reasonable for what it is. Store is bright and clean looking. It's not quite as big as Pete's Frootique on Dresden Row, but they are a bit similar. (192)

This has always been my "go-to" Sobeys grocery store since it's the closest to home, and also easy…read moreto get to on both the Bedford Highway and Hammonds Plains Rd. Also just a short jaunt off the 102. I am, however, re-evaluating my choice to pick this branch as my default place to buy food, and have found myself more and more using the larger, newer and better stocked Sobeys at the Larry Uteck exit off the 102. But back to this location, access can be a bit of a nightmare during rush hour since both HP rd and the Beford Hwy can get super backed up, and the surrounding intersections become hazardous to say the least when traffic peaks. The inside of the store seems new and bright, though the layout is a bit more confusing than other Sobeys. This could possibly be due to recent renovations, having to overlay a new layout over old infrastructure. Other than that, the staff are super friendly and seem to enjoy working there, which is always a good sign.

Everyone has their own Sobeys, and this one happens to be mine. It's not the biggest or newest…read morebuilding, but it's well stocked and the greens are fresh and usually pretty varied. The seafood and butcher's area is always clean and well presented, and the meat is delicious. They also have an excellent "Hippy Section", as I've always called it, full of healthy foods and ethical household supplies. I can't think of anything majorly wrong with this location. Sometimes they dont have everything I need (Artichokes, why are you never here?) but they come pretty darn close. It can be a bit tricky to finds things sometimes, but if you've ever played a point-and-click game, you can usually deduce where everything is. No basil in the the herb section? Check with the tomatoes up front. Can't find the pancake batter? Check with the syrup, not with baking. It's either a fun brain teaser, or a deeply frustrating exercise, depending on your mood. Plus the cashiers are always hilarious, which is always a bonus!

I enjoy this location. I frequent it very often. It seems to…read morebe upgrading all the time with what's considered current in most Superstore locations which is great. I know where everything is and don't often get lost. Everything is open and convenient. The staff is usually friendly and very helpful. My only complaints are that they don't have as much local produce as they did years ago and wish the bigger chains would start allowing more local farmers to sell at their closest locations. It seems better this year than last since they launched a local produce campaign, but I still don't feel like it's at where it used to be or even should be. Especially with the local markets. I also don't like having to wait months for an item I use frequently to be restocked, though this has only happened a few times and has since seem to have changed for the better and hasn't happened recently. My last and biggest complaint is the deli. We buy sliced deli meats directly from the deli counter and it seems if you go for service there almost what seems anytime after supper (more so anytime after 7) that they can't serve you because they've cleaned and shut down the machines for the night. Isn't the store open until 10 now?? I can appreciate and understand areas closing down for 9pm, but 2 hours before so I should still be able to pick up my shaved black forest ham and sliced angus roast beef. All in all we usually try and time for the deli and still enjoy going to this location.

I went up the next day and they gave me a refund for the naan. I really wanted the naan. The Biryani was full of flavour, but I didn't care for the cardamom pods in it. I had to keep stopping and spitting them into a napkin. I will order again.

I've recently switched from doing most of my grocery shopping at the Sobeys on Bedford highway, to…read moreusing this location at Larry Uteck.. Mostly because its more easily accessible by car (Bedford hwy intersection with HP rd can be a nightmare). There are also many more box stores in the immediate surroundings, so I get more done on a single trip when I come out. Its also super convenient if you work out at the Goodlife fitness around the corner. You can often see a lot of buff bodies roaming the aisles in the store at any given time. The layout is a little weird, but you get used to it. The refrigerators that line the back of the store take some getting used to.. I keep forgetting where to get the yogurt vs cottage cheese and other dairy products. The staff are super nice here, and the shelves seem to be better stocked, especially in produce, than many other grocery stores around. That brings me to my next point in that its usually much quieter than other Sobeys or Superstores. You're unlikely to find long lineups here on even the busiest days.
