Funny that I am reading reviews about this place as weird and creepy. The store inside is not…read moreorganized and it is not pleasant to the eyes. For the ones who value the external appearances, you wouldn't know it is a grocery store from the outside and it looks like something that comes from a third world country. To the good stuff inside: Lots of great products for a variety of budget needs. Tons of organic products both local and around the world. Due to the covid situation, you might get a lineup but they are usually not that long because they have four registers.

The location took a bit of getting used to since it's in more of a residential neighborhood and I'm staying in the city center, but it got easier to find after the first visit. Accessibility was a little tricky at first, the fully accessible entrance with automatic doors closes about two hours earlier than the rest of the store. When I arrived the first time, the staff were incredibly kind and helped lift me and my wheelchair over the small step at the front, which I really appreciated. Once inside, the aisles are spacious, well-marked, and easy to navigate with a wheelchair. Anything that was out of reach wasn't an issue at all because the staff were very friendly and happy to help. We made it work with their English and my French, which made the experience more enjoyable. My return visit the next morning was much smoother since it was daylight and I already had a sense of layout. The staff were even friendlier the second time around. The hot food was really good--maybe not as much variety as I'm used to, but still very satisfying. The chicken wings were fresh, hot and well prepared, the potato wedges were well seasoned, large and hot! Checkout was quick and easy, with registers at both the front and back of the store. They also accept all forms of payment, which made things convenient. Overall, a really positive experience, especially because of how helpful and welcoming the staff were.

I would occasionally go there for their imported cookies (oh how I adored Anna's Almond Swedish Thins, lol) and exotic teas. And also for their cheeses and deli meats. I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but I love the smell of coffee and they have a good selection of coffee beans and a huge coffee grinder. The store has a very European feel to it, and very high prices. However, they carry products that are difficult to find elsewhere. Every time I go back to Montreal I like to pop in and poke around ;) My last visit was shortly before the Pandemic started. Looking forward to going back once this Pandemic is over.

Produce and fruits like just about everywhere in Montreal is top notch,well displayed and fairly priced,Selection of everyday products and staples is well represented but where this market shone is with it's vast selection of middle Eastern products. A fresh cheese section featuring 8 different Fetas,6 Jabins, and countless Halloumis with a smattering of herbed and honeyed specialty soft cheeses. Sausages covering the spectrum from your excellent local bratwurst to 9 flavors of Mergez from the very mild to the intensely red and spicy. Lebanese and Turkish coffees abound as does every conceivable dried herb and spice and I couldn't help but indulge in a couple tubes of Tunisian Harissa, mounds of sundried and oil marinated tomatoes,tins of Lebanese 7 spice blends. Service is decidedly 3'rd world meaning curt and perfunctory but not rude as some reviewers claim but then again my French is minimal and Arabic non existent. So when next in Montreal please take time to visit this great grocery....you'll never know what you'll find.

Stecchinos also offers good quality catering for a fair price. I've used it personally. For general info: There is no place to sit. You have to buy your food & go. It is located in a Corporate building so most people stop in, purchase their food and go.
Decent, quick food. It is pretty packed during the morning coffee runs and peak lunchtime hours…read moresince it is located inside the Sun Life building. However, they are super quick, so you'll be able to get your lunch really quickly. They offer sandwiches, soups, wraps, pasta, etc. Their soups are $2.5 with some crackers with 2 options every day - the cream of mushroom was very, very salty in my opinion. Their coffee isn't that great either - there are other cafes, even inside the Sun Life building. But I guess if you work inside the building or nearby, this could be occasionally be a quick, cheap option for lunch once in a while, although there are better alternatives for sure.

The bread that they use for the sandwich is out of this world. It has the perfect crunch and it is always warm. The pesto is also really good, very tasty. As for the chicken, it is also delicious and crunchy. I also got the natural cola that I believe they make. It was also really good. It is a little pricy.
