Afterwards, I needed a grocery store. I did a search and found this Sobeys on my way down to highway 401. Perfect! This grocery store is in a plaza with a Dollar Tree, Circle K, and more. It was cool seeing this grocery store open at 8:30 pm. I'd later learn walking into the store that it was open till 11 pm. Nice! I had no problem finding a parking spot. This store had steady business while I was there. I entered the store and the produce section was in front of me. It was exactly what I needed. I needed an avocado. It took me a bit of time to find one. I found bags of avocados, but I didn't need that many. I then found guacamole in small tubs and bags that last two weeks. I was close, but not really. The avocados were across from the fruit. There was a special. I got what I needed. I liked that it had a variety of ripeness levels to choose from. I quickly browsed around this rather large store. It was brightly lit and inviting. I liked seeing plants outside the store. There were more by the pizza and deli meat sections. My favourite thing these days is to look at beverages. I saw everything from water flavour enhancers to carbonated drinks. There was a sale on Cove beverages. I had never had the raspberry, so I got a can. I've had the grape before and got it as well. I headed to the checkout area. There were self-serve kiosks. I went with a human. Sana, the female staffer, was nice. She asked me if I had a Scene card. I did and had her scan the barcode off my phone. I tapped to pay with a credit card. Done! I thanked her, grabbed my items, and headed to my car. I put my items in a reusable bag and drove home. I had the raspberry Cove drink when I got home. I put ice in a glass and poured the drink into the glass. It was yummy. It helped that it was chilled. The avocado was perfect. I used it in a smoothie the next day. It had the perfect ripeness for it. I liked shopping here. I got what I needed and a lot more. The hours are amazing and I got a human cashier. (153)

I used to drop by Ajax practically every weekend. I stopped doing it for a couple of years, but I…read morerecently revisited what I used to do. Instead, I drop by once a month. When I am in Ajax, I pass by the Real Canadian Superstore often. Shockingly, I had never been in the store until yesterday. My dear friend and I like Joe Fresh. We decided to drop by and check out what this supermarket has to offer. It's a large, typical Real Canadian Superstore. We found the Joe Fresh area and browsed. She was there to look at pants and jeans. I love the selection in this section, especially the loungewear. I like coming to this store to check out nail polish. I haven't given the Joe Fresh brand a try. One of these days, I will give it a shot. There is a huge assortment of gift cards. I have never seen anything like it. I also loved that you can get the lowest price on M&M's chocolate bars. I was happy. The produce is fresh. I also love the bakery. There was plenty of parking here, even with the extra gardening section that blocked up part of it. I will need to visit this store more often. It's tough when you have this store and a decent Sobey's roughly a block away. (177)

This is a big, bright beautiful store, with logically organized aisles (I hate it when they label a…read more"cookies" aisle, but not one for crackers - Real Canadian labels them both!). Their seafood section, deli and meat section always features very fresh products. Anything that isn't is sold for discount. If you want to buy deli meat, I recommend buying it from the actually deli counter. The lower cost will save you money. The lack of packaging will save the environment. Win-win, I call it! I bought $5 of parma prosciutto at the deli counter, and the same product would have cost $10 from the fridge case. They have a wide selection of foods from various cultures and cuisines, in addition to books, magazines, clothing and household items. You could do pretty much anything here except auto repairs! There is even a wine store in there. If you want one-stop shopping, then this is the place to go!

I live in Toronto but we always go to the Grocery Outlet store in Oshawa.Atleast once a week. I definitely recommend this store. There are other store locations but I/ we prefer the Bloor Street location.

They also sell exotic products imported from other countries, like exotic Pringles from Belgium. This location is huge and spacious! Much bigger than other locations I've been to. I like! They have more inventory than the one in Brockville too, which is the one I go to most often. It's in a strip mall with lots of free parking.

My dear friend and I spent Saturday in Oshawa, Brooklin, and Whitby. After having a fabulous dinner…read morein downtown Brooklin, we wanted to get a drink at a cafe. Most Starbucks cafe in this vicinity close at 22:00. We knew that we wanted more time. I checked Yelp and this Timmy's was a four-minute drive away. This Timmy's is in a plaza. I was leading in my car as my friend followed. The parking lot is oddly designed in front of Timmy's. My friend thought that I was going through the drive-thru, but I was actually parked in front of the store! She ended up in front of the A&W's. Anyway, we walked in and talked about what to order. She is vegan and I am borderline lactose-intolerant. We share similar challenges getting food and drinks. Hold the dairy! For me, I still have the flexibility of taking pills that allow me to have dairy. She went with black coffee with some sugar. I typically get black steeped tea. Instead, I went with the tropical real fruit chill. It tasted sweet, but it wasn't bad. I could taste pineapple, tangerine, and mango flavours. A small runs you $2.10 with tax. Both the store and the drive-thru are open 24 hours a day. The drive-thru has to order lanes. Impressive! It was fairly quiet at 22:30 on a Saturday night. A woman who had a weird slogan on her blue car had parked next to mine. We chatted by my car as we saw her pull out with her dog in the passenger seat. The dog was huge, but sweet! It was the perfect place for is to casually talk, as we tend to do whenever we meet. (149)

I have found that a lot of the Tim Hortons have been slipping lately and this particular location…read moreis the slowest I have been to in a long time. The parking lot was empty when we went in and there was only one person ahead of us in line. We got to the counter quick enough but were in there for what seemed like ages waiting for 2 toasted bagels. The man who ended up giving us our food was very rude in how he asked me not to take photos in the store. I didn't mind that he wanted me to stop taking photos but it was the way he spoke and attitude he gave when he did it that caused the problem. Our "lightly buttered" bagels were a mixed bag. Mine was just drenched with butter still and my wife's had splotches of heavily buttered areas and then spots with no butter at all. This place shows why we rarely go to Tim Hortons anymore.

A few weeks ago, I was in Whitby and needed to find a grocery store. I did a quick search and found…read morethis Sobeys. I paid it a visit. There is plenty of parking in front of this store. I parked close to the main entrance and walked in. I do miss having a Sobeys in Markham. This one is large and had everything that I needed. The produce section was great. I needed cucumbers and gone a couple that were on sale. This store has a lot of pre-cut fruit if you are looking for a supermarket shortcut or just don't feel like cutting fruit. With barbeque season being here, there were inflatable ketchup and mayo in front of their respective product displays. I liked the inflatables so much. If they were for sale, I'd probably get them because they looked cool. This place has heat-and-eat quiche and empanadas. I loved looking at this section so much, from meatballs, to rotisserie chicken. The dessert section was deadly. There were lots of whole cakes available. You can also get single slices. The cupcakes looked yummy, too. I got a dozen eggs. I enjoyed the dairy section. The product that opened my eyes wide was Silk whipped cream. I have found that you can get a dairy-free version, but it has sugar in it, or you get one with no sugar, but the dairy is there. This Silk product made me happy. It was both sugar-free and dairy-free. Yay! Each Sobeys is different. This place had kombucha and bubble tea in bottles. I was intrigued with the latter. I'll need to give it a try next time. This store had everything that I needed and more that I wanted! Luckily, I had some self-control during this visit. I got a nice woman who helped me at the cashout area. I had my Air Miles card scanned. I then paid with a debit card. All was great. I loved shopping here. I hope to return when I'm back in the area. (210)

Although this location is the closest to where I live I don't pass by it as often. After several bad experiences at the other locations, the only time I will shop at this chain will be by making the extra effort to drive here. This store is well laid out, always stocked and well presented. The produce is fresh and care taken to place in the displays not to damage it. Of all the best department's characteristics the one that stands above all others is the butcher shop. The staff aren't just skilled tradespeople, they truly care and go out of their way to prepare anything you want to you specifications. All staff at this location are mature (even the teenagers), genuinely friendly and helpful. If you shop at the premium grocery stores then it is with your drive to shop here.

Tip: Sign up for Perkins rewards for discounts on food and more…read more Two Saturdays ago, I was in the area and noticed this Perkins across the street. I don't frequent Pickering as much as I used to. It was new to me. I flagged checking it out in my head. Last Saturday, I dropped by for a late lunch after completing my errands. My first visit at a Perkins restaurant was in Winnipeg. I loved going there after a midnight shift to get pancakes and more. Sadly, Winnipeg doesn't have any Perkins eateries left. When I lived in the States, there was one Perkins in Rochester, MN. It's still there. I'm so glad. As a resident, I went there for a team lunch and when I was peckish for some breakfast. This eatery is in a plaza. It's next to Shawarma Royale and across from Dairy Queen, which are also new to me. I parked steps away from the entrance. It's wasn't all that busy at 2:30 pm on a Saturday. I walked in. I saw the sign to wait to be seated. I did while taking photos. It didn't take long for a nice woman to come over. She brought me to a booth. I thanked her. This woman wasn't my server, but did get me a Diet Coke. It was a bit off in flavour. I'm not sure if it was the ratio of syrup to carbonated water, or maybe the water. My refill was much better and the carbonation was great. Patricia would end up being my server. She came over and asked if I was ready to order. I was! I got these items: - French toast with scrambled eggs and sausage links - Diet Coke She came over to bring a warm bottle of maple syrup. It was a nice touch. My food didn't take long to arrive. It looked yummy. I thanked her and went to town. The French toast slices were excellent. They had a bit of powdered sugar on top. Not a lot. Just the right amount. I slathered on some butter on each slice and then poured the warm maple syrup on top. Delicious! They were crispy and chewy where they should be. The sausage links were nicely browned and had some nice crispness. Yummy! I liked my scrambled eggs. Perfect! No complaints here. The only downside was that my server didn't really check on me, except for the Diet Coke refill when I was practically done with my meal. She checked on everyone else, which was a bit odd. When I got my drink refill, she gave me my bill. What if I wanted a slice of chocolate french silk pie? You didn't ask. You simply presumed that I was done. I signed up for Perkins rewards. I have some perks that are waiting or me to use. Although Perkins is American, I've noticed that this eatery wants to tell you that it's Canadian-owned. The ketchup in French's, which is Canadian. There's also a huge Canadian flag when you enter this restaurant. I paid at the table. My server gave me the payment machine. I paid with a credit card by tipping and tapping. Done! I used the washroom before I headed home. The washrooms are by the entrance. The women's washroom was clean. The stall that I used was also clean and decent. It's a good Perkins. I'd return for more good eats. I hope that someone checks up on me as much as the other customers in the eatery. (409)

I looked at the sign that was advertising the dragon drink. I love the mango dragonfruit refresher. I get it fairly often. This drink had coconut beverage in it. Funny. I never thought about doing that combination. Yet, it's my go-to choice when I order the strawberry drink. There was only one barista on staff. She was busy fixing a drink. I was in no rush. I put my large bag of groceries on the counter and waited patiently. This barista was both friendly and cheerful. I ordered the dragon drink with coconut beverage. She nodded in agreement and said that she drinks it that way, too. I asked whether I can still swipe my Longo's rewards card at Starbucks, as it has been a while for me. Yep! I used my mobile app to pay for my beverage to get Starbucks reward stars. Double-dipping for points is fun! I waited patiently for my drink. I looked at all the discounted Christmas merchandise, including cute plush bears and tree ornaments. The cafe area where you can sit down and enjoy your goodies looked clean and inviting. I had already had lunch, so I didn't want any bakery items. They did look yummy. A staff member came over and asked the barista if she needed any help. She cheerfully said that she was fine. A few seconds later, she gave me my beverage. I wished her a great day and left sipping my drink. I need to do the dragon drink with coconut milk more often. It was yummy! I like this cafe. It's nice to treat yourself after running errands. (110)
