WoW!!!! So much health food here. Also. The BIG HUGE statement I have to say here is ... WHY is the food SO much better , Fresher ! And ... CHEAPER ??????!!!!!! Than the United States ?? Just take a closer look on the price of the apples in the photos .... observe the incredible quality of the apples and THEN Factor in the exchange rate of their Canadian Dollars into American Dollars .... And you will see that Americans are being Ripped OFF ! read more

Eden is an independently owned grocery store that has lots of exotic imported foods, a good selection of organic foods and other items you would typically find at health food stores, and some prepared foods. I think the owners are Korean as they carry lots of Korean foods and the majority of their prepared meals are Korean. I have fond memories of Eden from when I was living in Montreal, first as a poor and starving undergrad, then as a poorer and more starving grad student, lol. I would typically buy my groceries at Segal's Market and Marche Lobo, but when I had some extra money (i.e. after my birthday and Christmas) I would splurge at Eden. I love their baked goods display. Seeing knishes, arancini, empanadas, Jamaican patties, and samosas all together in one display is so symbolic of the cultural mosaic that is Canada. The sushi at Eden, although pre-packaged, is very good (for grocery store sushi) and much cheaper than at Loblaws and other such places. The grocery store is very clean and well lit. Staff are nice. There have been a few renovations over the years and it's much more modern looking now than when I lived in Montreal. There will always be a special place in my heart for Eden ;) read more

Marché Eden - The entrance of market - Grocery Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I've tried Eden a few times now and I can honestly say it's great! The selection for lunch items is excellent. They have little pastries, sushi, sandwiches, fresh fruit, snacks, and groceries! I really like coming here even though it is a bit pricier for snacks than the metro downstairs. It's clean and efficient. A bit small but they still have lots. The staff is nice. The only time I ever had a problem with them is when they overcharged me 5$ on my groceries. They scanned something That was near the register that I wasn't buying. But they cleared it up quickly and they were apologetic so I don't think it's worth taking off a star. Just make sure to check your receipt! read more

Marché Eden - Grocery Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Most items here are priced cheaper than the monopoly stores. There is a very good selection of east Asian foods and ingredients (especially Korean and Japanese), and consistently the best mangoes in town (!). Staff is a little stoic but not unfriendly, and the organization scheme is a bit odd, but for a specialty foods store, the prices and selection are great. read more

While showing great products from all around the world, the owner is actually trying to rob from you. A lot of products are way overpriced, some products are sold with an expired due date without a discount. They are even trying to sold you pork while the price is for beef !! This is just an example of how the owner is trying to maximize his profit without any respect for the customers. read more

Marché Eden - a package of ground beef - Grocery Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

A great place to get certain foods, but has a really horrible cashier with a brown wig that is always hostile, watches you, makes fun of you, and is extremely unwelcoming. I think shoppers deserve to have a peaceful experience - one that is not hostile. I am rating Eden badly for this reason. read more

I have been going there for one year plus. But... Over time I realized the products they are selling are becoming more and more inferior. For example they sell kelp packaged in Japanese packaging but is actually from China. I tried looking for wakame... But all three they are selling had korean words but they are again from China. It is quite deceiving for people who don't check where the food is from... I think I might just go to other Asian supermarkets .... read more

I've been buying from here for the past ten years. As of recently, they have implemented a "policy" that you must check your bag. However, this is only done selectively based on what you look like. I was asked to leave my bag at the counter but could see, and pointed out, many other customers in the store with their bags. When I refused to check my bag, I was not allowed in the store. I will never shop here again. This is apparently one store that hasn't taken a financial hit during the pandemic, so much so that they'll gladly turn away longterm customers. If you don't want to be stereotyped due to your appearance and clothing, I would avoid spending your money here. read more

If you are looking for something DIFFERENT other than the normal grocery store fare around here, Eden is definitely the place to go. Whenever I get frustrated that I can't find something, I usually end up finding it here. They have a wonderful mix of organic, normal, and Asian food. There are some random things I like that I can only find here, like certain canned soups and refrigerated miso. Also, their sandwiches are tasty. Definitely a great lunch spot. read more

I was glad to discover Eden during my freshman year as it was very convenient. It has everything you need as a student, from kombucha tea to cliff bars, kimchi to ramen, vegan and eco-friendly products...The takeaway service is very convenient when you don't have time to cook although it can get a bit pricey. This is actually the only problem with Eden, and if you're familiar with Whole Food it is the same feeling that you're paying more because you're shopping in a "trendy" place. However I can't deny that this has been my go-to store for the past year and I was a bit sad to move in another neighbourhood, knowing that I wouldn't shop there anymore. You get used to the place very quickly. PS; Be careful with the cut fruits/sushis, I already got unripe mangoes and avocados and couldn't know before they were bought and tasted. Also they tend to keep their cut fruits a long time when they're not bought, had a very unpleasant experience with watermelons. read more

Mostly Japanese food. Clean store. A little pricey. The staff are bright and uptight. And very arrogant. I didn't feel like talking to them and they can't accept rejection. Many are students and one guy working there kept trying to talk to me and look in my eyes. They don't care if you're married or whatever. How desperate, harassing customers! He tried to grab my care while I was still holding it and had bags in it. It was another attempt to bother me. It was really annoying. They must drink and take drugs. Their behaviour is weird plus. Avoid this store unless you're desperate. I bought rotten brie from them once and I had to mention legal action to get a refund of $3! read more

I get my lunch from Eden almost every weekday. They have fabulous prepared food and wonderful fresh fruit. Prices are reasonable and it is close to my office at McGill (it's not PA, but I'm too lazy to walk all the way back up there at lunchtime). Pros: - a variety of fresh dishes - cleaned, cut and packaged fruit (such as sliced mango, pineapple, etc.) - huge variety Cons: - organic fruit and veg is usually wrapped in excessive packaging making it difficult to actually get a good look at what you are purchasing. I have bought more than one package of apples or nectarines where the "damaged" part was hidden on the bottom. read more

It's a fun place to shop! As many of the other reviewers have said, it's a pricey place and there is no debate over that! However, it's such a pleasant experience to go there browse and pick out a cool tea to try out, some spices or ramen brands you won't find anywhere near by! My recommendation would be to go to their sandwich bar and try out the focaccia there and pair it with their fresh orange juice after browsing through and picking out a few interesting grocery items to experiment with! Enjoy! read more

I love the selection of food at Eden. If you are a snack junkie like me, beware. Eden has a great selection of Korean and Asian snacks and prepared foods as well as a huge range of ramen noodles. Their fresh fruit prices are a bit on the pricier side and the quality does match however it can be just as pricey as organic food in a Provigo or Metro. I come here to load up on frozen or prepared Asian foods and snacks. They have tons of different Pocky, some specialty asian chips, tteokbokki frozen and prepared, sushi, and even MOCHI ice cream. If you need a snack pick me up, this place is cheaper than eating out. read more

Boycott this shop! Sure, there's some good (if over-priced) stuff......but the amount of plastic here makes the Metro downstairs look eco-friendly! The world is DROWNING in plastic,,,,these people are making it much worse. Come on...it's 2018--time to wake up a bit, no? À boycotter!!!!! read more

I really like Eden. Their fruits and vegetables are fresh. The staff is friendly and helpful, the place is very clean. They have a small sections with eco-friendly products, and the ready food sections is vegan and vegetarian friendly. They also sell fresh squeezed orange juice, so yum on a summer day. Yes, they are a bit on the pricey side, but sometimes it depends on what are you getting. I will say the Haagen Dazs is the priciest ever! Provigo has it cheaper pretty much all the time. But their rice noodles, tofu, seasonal fruits and other things like that are actually a good price. read more

I juice so I need to stock up every week on fresh vegs and fruits. I used to shop at Eden every week but I don't shop there anymore and here's why... The good: Eden has a nice produce selection and some brands you won't find at Provigo and Metro. The bad: The organic selection is not great (it's small). Be careful with cold items such as milk and yogurt because they don't keep the refrigerators cold enough. I got burned a couple of times with cold items going bad before the expiration date. Also, don't expect any to hear a "merci or thank you" at Eden, the ladies who check you out at the front are rude. read more

Do not buy the produce they have on sale on the shelf outside...ever....most of the time those fruits and veggies are rotten. They also have some products that are supposed to be Japanese or Korean but are actually manufactured in China. Nothing has changed lately, the Asian women at the tilt are as rude as ever, and the Asian guys stocking the shelves are just as rude. read more

Used to be a great store, still decent prices on fresh produce, but there's an immense amount of incompetence that has unfortunately taken over. I often accidentally buy things that are past the best before date, so make sure to check if what you're buying is good because they don't. Also, the new staff do as little of their job as possible. I always buy large quantities of food here & whenever I get a new employee as cashier, even when there's nobody after me they stare into the distance while I bag my own things. Poor service. I had to work much harder than that earning minimum wage. Sad. read more

Over-priced veggies, they have a shelf outside where they display rotten veggies and fruits for sale, for example, they have a package with four apples for a dollar, but three of the apples are rotten, so only one item is edible and the rest is ready for the garbage, and at the end it is more expensive than buying the already over-priced stuff they have inside.The Asian women at the cash are rude, don´t even bother to say "Thank you" and they will never, ever give you a plastic bag even if you buy a million bucks in groceries read more

It's a perfect place for a student or really anyone to get a nice lunch. The pastries are yummy and everything is mostly affordable. They have a good selection of products in all categories. read more

This place is a godsend for people living in the area , they're open on most holidays too , much higher quality fruits and veg at a lower price most of the time , read more

Item I bought was misplaced by the worker in another customer bag. Manager saw it in the camera. He refused to give another item. He said he will talk to his boss and never contacted me back. I'm not going back. If that happened in the Metro downstairs I would have had a better customer service. I had spent over $200 in a month of grocery as I usually support family buisinesses, but not again with this one. read more

I am very impressed and glad to live next to that store. No meat, fish or chicken but the quality of the products is really above average. Highly recommended. read more

I live right above this store so how can I give it a bad rating it is sooo convenient and I have nothing bad to say about the store. Customer service is amazing. read more

Love this supermarket. Fresh fruit and veg at super reasonable prices, Korean food prepared meals selection, fruit salads, Asian cooking specialties, large selection of teas and deserts. read more

Every Sunday afternoon, you will likely find me wandering the aisles of this nice hidden gem in the middle of the McGill ghetto! A great mix of imported food, organic/veggie products and Asian food. There is also a sandwich counter which I have yet to try. I don't actually find this store that particularly expensive for the quality of products available. With a little bit of self control, my grocery bill turns out to be less expensive than going to, say, Metro or 4 Freres. You also get higher quality products as previously mentioned. You only need to complete your groceries and buy your meat and non-edibles elsewhere. read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet, I've been shopping here for 3 years because I clearly love it. Almost everything about this store is wonderful, the people who work here are so sweet and helpful - there's one older man who works produce and I just love his face, so friendly and he always says hello... The produce is of excellent quality and if you are looking for a specialty item (mostly Asian but also Italian, other European products and just a bunch of random stuff) this is the place where you're likely to find it... And if they don't have what you're looking for, ask them if they can order it and they might just order it specially for you - I know this because that's what they did for me one time and it didn't fully surprise me but it made me love this place even more. Their sale table is the best kept secret in the city (although probably not so secret anymore, because I went today and it was already bare lol) on it you'll find perfectly ripe and ready to eat fruits and veggies for so cheap (and bread that is still good but not super fresh, but ridiculously cheap), because they don't let any of their produce go bad, as if they refuse to sell bad product to customers - it's amazing. Even if you just want to walk around the aisles and check out the interesting and unique products that they have, you won't be bored or disappointed.. And they have a huge selections of organic stuff. The only thing is that, since they are a small store, they don't have a butcher so you could technically do all of your grocery shopping here so long as you go somewhere else to buy your meat. But they do have an awesome sandwich station where you can have someone build you a wrap or sandwich and they are so reasonably priced and very tasty and they, of course, use the freshest products. They also bake fresh breads and pastries every morning, you can go at 8am and you'll see them pulling trays out of the oven to cool.. And they have pastries like meat patties and focaccia pizzas... I can go on forever, but you should just go here and check it out for yourself so you can understand how great it is! read more

I loved this place until I ended up vomiting after eating a piece of the watermelon. If it is not fresh, it doesn't make sense to buy foods there which are typically much more expensive. read more

A place to avoid at any cost. First of all, prices are much higher than other grocery stores (yes, I am talking about the same products). Secondly the young male owner is arrogant and aggressive; indeed, he does not know how to respectfully treat customers. I would not touch this store with a ten-foot pole. read more

Prices are cheap or cheaper than provigo nearby, the quality is A+, service is always awesome. They have everything from fruits, veggies, frozen meats/icecream/dumplings/etc. to fresh baked bread. Awesome! Something to note is that they only accept credit/debit if it's a +$5 purchase, but who buys -$5 of groceries? read more

well layed out, in a good location, and has a lot of products you might not find elsewhere, but it really is pretty expensive
