After visiting Kenzo Ramen for lunch, I noted this Asian supermarket next door. Since I love food…read moreand shopping, I stopped by to browse. It looks like you can order hot food here. I wasn't paying full attention, as I was stuffed from lunch! There is also a mini bakery section where you can get non-meat buns, such as coconut cream buns. They also have sticky coconut peanut balls. The selection is extensive. Prices are higher than what I am used to, which is expected since Markham has a large Asian population in comparison. As an example, a five-pack of ramen is just under $6. I can get the same thing at my local grocery store for half that price. I bought a can of coconut cream peanuts. I blame my manager for getting me hooked on them. Yummy! I also got a ton of cough drops. They are effective. I bought them just in case I need them. The woman at the checkout was friendly and engaging. You can use debit and cash. I am not sure about credit cards, but I suspect that you can. It's a decent store for all your Asian groceries. I'd be happy to shop there if I lived in Waterloo. (77)

Times have surely changed. I went to the University of Waterloo during the mid-90s and there wasn't…read morean Asian Grocery store anywhere near both Universities. Heck, I don't even remember having a Sushi place nearby. Flash forward to 2019, and there's an Asian Grocery store servicing Asian students in both Universities. There's not a lot of variety in terms of fresh fruits, vegetables and meats but man, do they have an extensive variety of Chinese, Korean and Japanese snacks and grocery. We found Korean snacks and flavours that even the North York Galleria don't carry in their stores. We were very impressed. However, as indicated in the other reviews, the price point is a bit higher than in Toronto. This is an ideal store for homesick students wanting a taste of home. #22 of 2019

Sobey's refers to this as their Northfield location at 640 Parkside Drive. It is not on Parkside…read more(technically) or Northfield. It is actually across the street from their previous location of 585 Weber St, N. Confusing address aside, it is a nice new store. The layout is kind of wonky as you are led along a path through the produce section, past the meat/deli etc and then suddenly you are in a huge pharmacy and no grocery section in sight. The aisles and pathways seem to be jammed when the store is crowded. This could be frustrating to some people. The hot deli area is near the front of the store so perhaps it is focused on take away food rather than for the die hard shopper. Note, if you you are here for pick up -- go left. If you are going to shop, hang a hard right and take the tour. Don't get lost in the pharmacy -- there is more beyond. There is not a lot of cashier locations either. I suppose Sobey's has taken a hint from Walmart and decided people like to stand around waiting to pay. At the moment, it is a beautiful, well stocked and very clean new store. What this will look like when the shine has worn off and people don't buy into the fussiness of the layout remains to be seen.

This review is about grocery delivery, which is what I am searching for in Waterloo. It surprises…read moreme that Sobey's even showed up on the top10 list but I see that the reviews are not delivery-related, so here is one for you. I ordered alot of groceries for next day delivery to my daughter in Waterloo. Received the confirmation email immediately, as well as a second confirmation email several hours later. The next day, my daughter waited and waited but the order never arrived. 3 hours after the delivery window closed, I received an email that the whole order had been cancelled. Obviously very disappointed that this order was confirmed twice then never delivered, leaving us waiting for many hours, unable to leave, with no groceries/food to eat. I live in Toronto and order groceries online often, but will never use Sobey's again.

Sometimes it depends on who makes the sandwich for you but usually the workers load the sandwich pretty well with your choice of toppings. The store itself is pretty nice and has a lot of fresh ingredients. The prices are a little high but I would say it's because it's a higher end grocery store. Definitely a place you would come to get a couple of things, not your typical weekly groceries.

Their cup supplies were not very well organized and it took some time to find it. We went through the grocery section and noticed that the prices are basically grocery store prices. There is no wholesale. If someone was looking for much larger sizes of things for a restaurant, they could certainly find it there. However, I found it expensive they have fresh produce which could be purchased more cheaply at Costco at the cash register. We were asked if we would use our PC optimum card and that's when we realized this is a grocery store with some restaurant supplies, one of the big things that should have triggered that thought was that there's no membership required. In terms of the staff, I found people very friendly, and the location is quite good. If I were just reading the staff, they would get a five star.

Don't expect anything fancy here (aside from maybe cheese). For those you have Zehrs, Sobeys, Vincenzos, and the kind alike. The cashiers here are nice and attentive. While I didn't shop during peak times, I do wonder with less than 10 cash lines would this place be busy during peak grocery shopping hours... This place does get good student traffic since it is located close to the universities and many of the student housing establishments. Students get 10% off Mondays. Show your ID!
