It is impressive they mange to cram so many products in this tiny store....but. But: the mini seedless watermelon i bought was 4.99...had seeds...and was going bad inside despite being firm outside.

But: the only milk they have is the tiny half litres they sell at Tim Hortons...and they cost wayyyyyy more than those lol. But: it's so tiny and crammed with products that its hard to manoeuvre around, hard to gather ur products, hard to pay, hard to leave. So yah check it out for a bag of chips of some candy but otherwise do ur shopping elsewhere.

Over the course of our trip we had 4 different soups plus butter chicken and we loved them all. The wicked Thai soup is a must! We were impressed with how much in general they had for a small town store. Definitely worth heading here! If you are looking for vegan, Gaia or the other markets are a better choice.

Dr. Del La Cruz is truly exceptional and gifted Not only is he an incredibly skilled surgeon, he is…read morealso a true artist. His attention to detail and aesthetic sense are remarkable, and the results of his work reflect that level of talent and care. I did an implant exchange with a breast lift, and I could not be happier. What impressed me just as much as his surgical skill was his compassion and thoughtfulness as a physician. I have other health issues that required extra consideration, and Dr. Del La Cruz took the time to research them thoroughly to make sure every aspect of my care was as safe and effective as possible. That level of dedication meant so much to me. His entire office staff is equally wonderful--kind, warm, and genuinely supportive throughout the entire process. From the first appointment through recovery, I felt cared for, respected, and in very capable hands.The ladies that work with him are full of love. If you are looking for a surgeon who combines extraordinary skill, artistry, and genuine compassion for his patients, I cannot recommend Dr. Del La Cruz highly enough.

Love this country store. Recently re-opened under new management. Great location (right next to…read morethe Beaver Post Office). Very reasonable prices on store items (not at all like other grocery stores that raise their prices on various items), AND the items in the store are not ages old. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The country store plans on serving breakfast as well as grocery items....Really excited about that....Recommend stopping at this store to either pick up last minute grocery items or simply grab a cup of coffee....You will be pleasantly surprised with the hometown atmosphere this country store offers and the reasonable prices..........

The bakery was the opposite side of the store but it wafted throughout, the smell (Ooohh that smell? Can't you smell that smell?!). Not sure if we bought any but it did make for a decent food store visit. Well played, Buy Low Foods! Worth checking out...especially if you love fresh bread (ahh, the smell of it!).

From the owner: At Buy-Low Foods, our philosophy is to provide you with low, low food prices.read more

I live a 20 minute drive away from the store but I drive there 3-4 times a week to grab a salad. 2-3 times there either are no salads at all made that day or they have the one kind (chef salad) which I don't care for. It's a waste of an hour for me to drive there only to find..... nada. I guess I'm going to have to start making my own salads because I'm tired of the disappointment. Sigh.

If you like your carrot cake with a side of gaslighting…read more.. EatFresh came highly recommended, and I was genuinely looking forward to supporting a local business with a 'good reputation'. But I ended up in what I can only describe as a full-blown carrot cake standoff. I purchased a slice of carrot cake, only to discover, once home, that it contained shredded coconut. I loathe coconut. The texture is unmistakable to anyone who's ever had it (and hates it). So I drove back the next day and politely asked if I could swap it for something else, not a refund, just a coconut-free treat. What followed was like something out of a sitcom. The staff convened a mini tribunal. The cake was taken behind closed doors and inspected. I was assured that the recipe ONLY contained walnuts (and was not to believe my own eyes - and taste buds). I was even handed a new slice and told, confidently, "No coconut here." I opened the box and pointed right at the flecks of the offending ingredient. Still - the manager insisted: "That's walnut." Spoiler alert: it wasn't. The level of denial was surreal. What could've been a simple, friendly interaction instead turned defensive and weirdly authoritarian. No accountability. No flexibility. Just "take it or leave it" and I left with less respect for a business I truly wanted to support. This isn't just about taste. It's about trust. If staff don't know what's in their own products (or worse, deny what's clearly there), it raises concerns for anyone with dietary sensitivities or allergies. I've attached photos of the cake slices for reference. If you love coconut and confrontation, this might be your jam. If not....well, you've been warned.
