Every year, I make my way down from Calgary to Penticton for the Dragon Boat Festival. At some…read morefests, I like to make it a tradition to provide some pork buns and the like, but this past year I didn't have the opportunity to do so as the cities we raced in didn't have a chinese bakery available or just plain open when I want to pick it up. Imagine my surprise to find out that there's an asian Supermarket in Kelowna, only 45 min from Penticton, and was on the way down. Curious to see what it was like, I took a gander. As I walked in, the place was actually a good bit larger than what I expected. While by no means the size of say, a T&T Supermarket in a city, it was still a good enough size to offer rows upon rows of honest to goodness asian ingredients and more, such as frozen dim sum and baked goods from Vancouver, utensils, cooking tools and dried spices from the Orient. I honestly didn't expect such a decently supplied store in the middle of Kelowna, especially considering the city's relatively small population and that of the surrounding towns. While I found the baked good prices to be high, when compared to prices I am used to in Calgary, it is imported probably by truck from Vancouver, so that's to be expected. Still, if someone wanted to make a genuinely authentic Chinese dish, it's good to know that they won't be lacking for ingredients.

Very good store for organics or conventional items, prices are middle range, but reasonable. Their…read moremeat department is one of the best in Kelowna with a large selection of free range, specialty and wild meats, turkey (JD farms, yum!), chicken and salmon (wild sockeye - excellent). The produce department is usually well stocked, and the prices and selection quite good. They do support local and BC products. They have a large health and vitamin selection. As a frequent shopper I enjoy their loyalty program, every once in a while I get $20 off. They usually have good weekly sale items on a variety of everyday and specialty items. Helpful, attentive, knowledgeable staff. Convenient highway access with a medium sized, free parking lot. The thing that pushes them to 5 stars for me is their community support. Not only do they provide donations, etc. they have a room that they share with community charity groups free of charge - now that is easily worth a star.

I had lunch with my daughter here today. What a treat! Small restaurant but it lacks nothing. The…read moreservice was great. Our meals were fantastic. Everything was fresh & cooked to perfection. This is a very comfortable place. No loud music, so we could carry on a conversation easily. We shared a dessert it was more than enough for two. Fresh pineapple fried in a tempura coating laid up on two scoops of wonderful ice cream with a Carmel sauce. If you're looking for a great fresh meal of assorted fresh fish this place can't be beat. The service is spot on. There when you need something otherwise you're left alone. No one hovering over you. There is a small patio if you like to sit outside. Have a bear or a glass of wine with your meal. Adjoining the restaurant is the fish monger. Stop & give this spot a try I'm sure you'll be pleased with your meal & the service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Broken Anchor to anyone looking to have a great meal if assorted types of fish & chips. There's something in the menu to please everyone. My daughter & I will definitely be going back for another enjoyable lunch. Thanks for the great service Broken Anchor & a meal that was fresh & delicious.

We haven't had fish and chips for a very long time but decided to check out The Broken Anchor as…read morethey offer a gluten free batter. They're located in the Guisachan Village Centre. We dropped in on a Friday (around 6:15pm). The inside is small with about 5 tables. You order up at the counter and pay first. The menu consists of shares, tacos, bowls, sandwiches, fish & chips and family packs. They also have a very small, limited happy hour (1:00pm to 5:00pm). - Wild pacific cod ($21.55 for 1/2 lb) - the cod was extremely disappointing; completely dry and overcooked. The fries were the same. Soggy, limp and bland. Coleslaw was passable but oddly not cut evenly. - Steamed clams & mussels ($19.00) - came with four pieces of buttered bread. The white wine sauce and garlic was decent but something you could replicate at home. Would have liked a little more clams and mussels for the price point. Was hoping to find a gem but left Broken Anchor disappointed. Try somewhere else for your fish & chip fix.

My wife had the clam chowder and said it was the best she'd ever eaten. They've got a lot of other stuff on the menu too, like oysters, crab cakes, prawns and a bunch of grilled seafood items, so it's not your average fish and chip joint. The decor could use some work but they say they're going to renovate soon.

Ever had a hankering for some fresh fish and chips? Well, we were driving through West Kelowna and…read morefound "Buy the Sea," which surprised us with a menu that not only included fish and chips, but lots of fresh seafood to take home as well. The small restaurant/market offered different kinds of fish and chips at different price points. There was Cod, Haddock, Halibut, Prawns and Oysters, and we chose to split the Haddock and chips, with extra coleslaw and tartar sauce. The Haddock arrived quickly and hot, with a piece for each of us, and a handful of fries - even for a split dish, there were really large portions. The fish was perfectly fried, and inside, tender and melted in my mouth. The chips were crispy, and I enjoyed dipping them in both the ketchup and tartar. They also provided both white and malt vinegar which I appreciated. After lunch, we perused the market area and saw there were giant crab legs, octopus, lots of fresh fish, poke, smoked fish and crab. I had my eye on the sushi-grade Ahi which I will take home next time to make my own sushi. There were also jars of sauces and dressings, and I spied ghost pepper sauce for the next time I need a good flavor boost. The prices were reasonable, and everything seemed fresh and clean. Looking forward to returning!

Do note: it closes at 7:00, so not for late night snacking!

They've got a large store with almost everything you can think of - from fruit and veg to marshmallows, refreshments to seasonal items, candles to couscous! We appreciated how happy the staff were to serve us no matter how large or small our purchase happened to be. Prices are more than you may expect from larger chains(superstore or Walmart for instance) but not super expensive all things considered. Would happily return on our next trip.
