Come here from time to time but their sushi is amazing! We always get it if we can. It's a little messy in the fruits section and can't always find what you want, but some of their prices are really good. read more

Best produce selection around. The prices are good. Fish market is also quite elaborate. read more

I brought some dried mushrooms from this store, then when I went to use them I looked...and they were moving. Not the mushrooms, but the maggots that were in the dried mushroom. Be very cautious of the China packaged, imported, products. Video of live maggots can be downloaded here. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Rka1HctxhyAt6zEH1u5R1YpS4_XDOFIe/view?usp=share_link read more

Oceans Fresh Food Market has a convenient location right by Hwy 410. I don't have Oceans Fresh Food Market in my hood.. but definitely they reminds me of T&T or Foody Mart. Mixture of different ethnic food plus Western and Canadian offerings. There is this Deli that sells cold cuts and cheese.. that that usual for a "Oriental" grocery store. For the cooked food, there are a lot more Vietnamese varieties. Of course the standard Dim Sums, bubble teas, sweet and sour pork.. :P There is a little area where people can just dine in. Oceans Fresh Food Market is trying to be a supermarket for all: Jamaican, Filipino, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Canadian... so it can really be your one stop grocery shopping experience! read more

I really like Oceans as a grocery store and for its huge variety of Asian groceries The size, variety and prices are really good The only problem here is that none of the employees working here speak in English except for the cashiers So if ur looking for something special Just figure out by yourself This is a typically Asian store with most of the Asian grocery specially the Chinese Malaysian Thai and Vietnamese ones Fruits and veggies are very very fresh and reasonably priced with again a lot of variety Fresh fish counter can be seen here too Besides all of the above can find plenty of fresh fruit smoothies bubble teas and a big selection of cooked food like noodles, wonton soup and cooked meat section like sweet and sour pork general Taos chicken and chilli beef which is great too Love their bakery selection excellent fresh and great taste A must visit for some great Asian Indian Jamaican grocery u can find almost everything from most countries specially Asian here read more

Horrible experience. Was told that my support dog was not welcome and that given that he is being carried in a satchel he offers no support. Provided them with my Dr letters from the Hamilton cancer Center and nobody could be bothered to even look. They continued their none sense and went out of their way to make me feel uncomfortable. The security guard stood behind the manager randomly adding irrelevant facts that clearly he knows nothing about. I have include a picture so you can see what a nuisance me and my dog are. I should have also mentioned that on my way out I was stop my 3 different cahiers who commented on how cute and well behaved he was. I bring him to my hospital visits and I have never had an issues. Thor is a good boy and stays calm for hours at a time. He's the perfect support dog and allows me a lot of freedoms because of his emotional support. read more

I ended up with food poison after eating a piece of jackfruit. I washed the fruit before consuming but still ended up going to the hospital for severe stomach pain, diarrhea and vomiting. This is the cut fruit wrapped with saran wrap. read more

Was here for first time today. Read reviews and agree with some. Produce: amazing variety that I haven't seen except at St. Lawrence Market downtown. Fruits and vegetables ontarians are used to plus those from many Asian countries and India. And unique varieties like large fire plums and Vidalia onions from Georgia. A million different greens. Fruits like dragon fruit, pomegranate, persimmon, cactus pear that were at reasonable prices. Fish: had a fish market in a separate little enclave. Reminded me of fish mongers in new York I used to shop at. Meats: great prices on all kinds of fresh meat, huge variety. Had whole duck for $13, a big bag if chicken bones for soup for $1, 8 skinless boneless chicken thighs for $5.50. Had beef shanks, 5 different kinds of liver, pork cut in 15 different ways. Beautiful! Prepared foods: had a hot food counter with just prepared items like har kow (steamed shrimp dumpling), shumai (steamed pork dumpling), BBQ pork buns, turnip cakes, spare ribs. Lots of goodness there. Sauces: of all nature and spice. So amazing I'm saving it for next time as too much to look at. Having been used to markets like this in NY and CA, it's great to have one here. Inside store design kind of reminds me of Whole Foods. Customer service: don't expect anything extraordinary in this category. Doesn't exist here. If you can get passed that, there's great products and great prices here! read more

Its great and huge Chinese store, which has it all! you pick anything and they have it and more. I was in their to get mu spring roll fix! Their bakery section is not bad and the service there is good. I love their spring rolls, so I have used their food section as well and although always busy they do tend to keep people moving and provide warm food. This location had a bubble team and fresh juice section as well! The also have a seating area so you can eat at the location. Over all the place is a bit dirty but hey its because of traffic in and out of the store and as they have many sections. The counter service could be better but then again their are quite a few customer to be checked out and usually many till are always running. Over all I quite enjoy shopping their for few stuff here and there as not all is cheap compared to other supermarkets. read more

Food quality has gone down big time. Do not expect customer service here everyone here is rude af

Wooo! I like this place. Groceries are so cheap here! I got cherries for $2.99 a pound! I got fish, plates for soya sauce (for dipping sushi), koala cookies, rice paper, a sushi rolling mat, and sushi for $38!!! Unreal. At the end of the day the sushi is half price. $1.99 for 6 california rolls, $2.99 for spicy salmon. Omg. They were so good. I have gotten them twice. Excellent! I can't believe I waited so long to try this place!!! read more

Love coming to Oceans. Not only do I love dinning out but I love to cook. Oceans takes care of the majority of my grocery needs. Jerk chicken and pork are on the menu. All fresh ingredients and making it from scratch. This location is typically busy at given point during the day/evening. So pack your patience. The tellers can be a little more friendly, hence the 4. But I'll keep returning. read more

I love buying my groceries here and some delicious eats at the hot plate bar/resto especially their dim sum and bubble tea! Their dim sum is actually pretty good considering it's not in a more reputable "restaurant", particularly their siao mai and squid tentacles (my fave in this location!). Since they were bought over from Loblaws, I've noticed that the prices have increased a little but still fairly priced grocery items compared to other grocers and staff have become a little more polite, especially the cashiers and hot plate servers. There is still a big language barrier with stocking staff and sometimes a little attitude so you're honestly better off finding something yourself. Also, the parking lot is truly a ZOO so be careful and practice courtesy (hopefully others will follow suit... *wishful thinking*). read more

great place to get groceries, great place to grab some food from the "hot plate" bar my only complaint is the workers have a bit of attitude and some of them are not very helpful if you have questions or a problem. always busy and the parking lot is a bit of a zoo, so pay attention when your trying to find a spot. read more

The bubble tea here is really good. Whenever I have to go grocery shopping, I usually choose Oceans, mainly because I want to get the bubble tea from here, LOL. But aside from that, they also have a wide selection of foods and fresh vegetables. Their buns are always soft and fresh too. They have good deals on their take out and dim sum, and they even have a dining area in the back section of the store. I bought a tray of sushi for only $22 and it came with lots of california rolls, dynamite, and salmon, and it was actually pretty good! The only thing I have to complain about is that it smelt like gross bathroom near the back, but the rest of the store was fine. read more

I just went here to buy oxtail and cow foot and the meat cutters (two to be exact) were very rude and discriminatory. When the meat cutter placed the oxtail on the scale, I requested that he give me a different one and he started cursing at me saying that: "you people problem. No, more and started cursing in his language. I turned to one of his colleague and asked for the manager and he to me; no manager, manager sleeping in bed and they all started laughing. I spoke to the manager and he claimed that his store is not like that and I should do whatever I want to do when I told him I am going to post my experience on FaceBook. I left the store without buying anything and I will never set foot back in Oceans read more

The rating is based on my order from the Hot Food counter but quickly, the produce and selection of grocery items seems to be pretty good, on par with other large Chinese Supermarkets (ie. T&T, Bestco, etc...). The hot food is another thing though. In short, it's "marginal". I had chicken fried rice, black pepper beef, fried chicken wings and hot and sour soup. The fried rice was poor, but what you'd expect of Manchu Wok quality. The black pepper beef was tasty but lacked authenticity, not enough black pepper and too sweet for my taste. The wings were ok, of the battered type, but were a little soggy. The hot and sour soup was also mediocre, tasted watered down. T&T is the benchmark for chinese supermarket hot foods and Oceans falls way short. read more

Would recommend! I always go in for their combo specials; all their flavors taste delicious. Service is friendly and generous. Will be coming back when i get the chance. read more

Oceans Fresh Market - beef hofen, garlic string beans, sweet and sour chicken - Grocery Near Me - Brampton, Ontario

It is cheap. There are language barriers. Poor customer relations / service, mostly due to language. WATCH WHAT YOUR CASHIER IS SCANNING! ... multiple charges for a single item is a common occurrence at this location! Will charge a "service fee" to correct it if you only notice after leaving the store! read more

BUYER BEWARE - I just purchased two dinners from their hot food area this afternoon. Truthfully this was my third time buying food from this area and today the food was just poor quality. The rice and shrimp was burned and the pepper beef was chewy and wasn't spicy like the lady said. I bit into a green pepper and knew it was old. When I called the store saying that I wanted to return the food the manager told me that I had to drive back to the store to return it today. I live outside of Brampton and it is 30 min to drive each way. I had intended to put it in the freezer and drive it back when I did groceries next week. The manager said 'wouldn't you have to burn gas next week' and insisted that I could only do the return today. What this means is they are not responsible for the quality and can serve you anything. You are better off cooking your food yourself rather than risk getting food poisoning from bad food made with Oceans NOT at all fresh market products. They should not have to serve customers food made cooked with old produce. They do serve food made with old produce and don't care....Final mention...is the manager did not once apologize for the bad food. BUYER BEWARE...just because the cooked food looks good doesn't mean it is good. :-( I was just reading what the person below said...today the servings were not "generous"...and I heard a customer asking for more to be added to her plate. The whole experience was disappointing. read more

I asked for hot water at the food counter clerk said there's no hot water so I asked for hot tea they have it so I said ok give me hot water without the tea bag and I will pay for hot water to drink. I was so mad they have hot water all along. I called the manager to complain she didn't say anything. So bad customer service! Yup they charged and paid for hot water. read more

Every Friday after I'm done pumping iron, I go down the street and shop at Oceans. It is normally really busy and they have these little red plastic carts which I like because it takes up less room and it's easier to manoeuvre around the isles. I enjoy coming here because of the great prices and the variety of fresh fruits and vegetables. I haven't really shopped for anything else so I can't really say what they do and don't have. Oceans is your standard grocery store and smells funky at times haha sorry. At check out they only take cash or debit, I honestly don't know why but just make sure you have one or the other -speaking from experience, I once had to mission it home so I could get cash. Anyway, it's a grocery store and there isn't much I can say other than, if you need to make a salad? Come here for your greens ;) read more

LOVEEE the bubble tea here! They use fresh fruits whenever they can. I always order a mango or piña cola smoothie with tapioca and they use fresh mangoes and pineapples and use the powder for the coconut... It's a lot better than those place that only use powder for their bubble tea. It's approximately $5 for a small smoothie with tapioca... which is usually the price anywhere, but they always have specials for the week which are $1.99 or $2.99. Sometimes the staff are quite rude, but oh well read more

Oceans Fresh Market - Mango and piña colada smoothie bubble tea - Grocery Near Me - Brampton, Ontario

Ok, here is the deal with Oceans. If you want fresh fish, veggies, cheap tasty hot plate or dim sum hit up your local oceans. If your not looking for old ladies horking there flem or gauze while pushing people in the check out line then you may want avoid going anytime besides when it first opens for the day. Again, the prices on really fresh fish cannot be beat and there specials are great, just understand what your getting into. read more

For Brampton, this is a great Chinese/Asian supermarket but when you compare it to the rest of the GTA, it's just not that great. There's another Oceans in Mississauga on Hurontario and the quality is notably different. Considering they're only maybe 15 minutes away on the highway, you'd think they'd be using the same suppliers but this one has more wilted looking items than my lawn in a drought. Parking is a bit chaotic here. I'm not sure if it's the drivers or the layout of the place but I think it's the drivers (Sorry Bramptonites!). People are darting in front of your car regardless of what you're doing. Once you stop cursing at people and you're inside the market, you notice the lighting is a bit off. I think it's the lack of natural light but it has that odd haze from too much florescent lighting. This place is large (like all the other Oceans markets) and right off the bat, you're hit with the whiff of the fish (and not in a good way). They had salted fillets standing out and it didn't smell pleasant. There was a lot of fish in the tanks and they seem all fine swimming about but the tanks itself seemed to be not great condition. The Oceans on Hurontario almost seems brand new in comparison (even though it's been there for a few years now). The meat area here was in the same condition. It's not spotless and the meat felt like it was thrown about here. The English and Asian vegetables weren't too bad here. Same thing goes for the baked good section. I noticed this market really catered to the south Asian community more as it had several aisles dedicated to those cultures. Checkout was a bit frantic as it seemed like everyone was in a roller derby to get their carts into the line ups. The cashiers all seemed to going through the mechanical process of scanning but it's no different from any No Frills I've been to. Overall the prices are fair and the selection is decent, I just wasn't a fan of the meat or fish area of this market. I wouldn't buy anything as it didn't seem to be well handled. I could take that risk but I fear my stomach probably wouldn't recover from it. read more

The fruits and veggies are cheap. I don't buy any meat from here cuz it grosses me out. They have a Chinese hot table..a dinner costs 4.99. The food is really good, big portion size read more

Horrible service, overcrowded with rude people, but amazing prices that other stores can't beat. Also don't take credit cards, need changes for the shopping cart and paid shopping bag. read more

Produce is pretty good. Selection is alright. T&T meat department is better. The type of people that shop here are not my type of people. Have fun crossing the street to get to the doors because cars don't like to stop for pedestrians here. But at least produce is cheap and fresh. read more

Came here to get some grocery done on famiky day. I am very glad that this place is open. Everything is in stock. The place is super clean and tge vegetables are very fresh. read more

This place is terrible. If you don't watch everything at the cash they will charge you higher prices than listed on shelves. I've pointed this out to them three different times and they'll start out by telling you that you're wrong. If you show them the sign in front of the product they just say it was a sale that's over now, and they don't even take the sign down so it doesn't happen again. They also won't refund or exchange for products that are bad, even if it's the same day you bought the item. I've bought bread and potatoes there, got home and opened them and they were moldy/rotten. No refund or exchange was given for either. The staff are really rude, even if you talk to customer service they won't resolve anything for you. read more

My sister worked at this location the kitchen is nasty. She told me they drop food on the ground and throw it back into the cooking pan. It may be cheaper but it is so dirty I would rather pay a little more. read more

Food is mediorcre, but good for the pricing. The only bad thing is that 1/5 times I have been here, I found a hair and some dirt on my dumplings which clearly looked like someone dropped it on the floor and picked it up to serve to me read more

Great prices for affordable groceries, the bubble tea is really good here.. That's why I put 4 stars :)

These people continue to have very rude and unprofessional attitudes towards customers, especially in the meat department. When I requested to speak to a manager to make a complaint, of course they proceeded to act as if they could not understand English and continued to be rude and unprofessional laughing and mocking, asking each other "are you a manger". Are these low standards now the norm here since there doesn't seem to appear to be any system in place to make a complaint. Clearly they appear to be getting away with this type of behaviour. I am not used to being treated this way especially when I am spending my money here. read more

My go to store for takeout chinese food. order a combo or individual dishes. Always 2-4 kinds of rice, 2-3 kinds of noodles, 2-3 kinds of soup. Pork, beef, chicken and shrimp come as sweet & sour, spicy or breaded. Also includes spring/egg rolls, scallops, chicken wings & balls, vegetable. Good selection of dim sum dishes. Right next to the sushi deli. Again good variety of vegetable, shrimp, crab, salmon sushi. read more
