Don't you hate the system of pricing products where you have to buy 2 or 3 to get a better price. Today I wanted 1 can of beans, had to buy 3 for $6.00 or pay $2.89 for 1. Didn't need 3 cans so I walked away. I know people have been complaining about this practice for some time especially singles & seniors. It's time that shoppers simply refuse to buy products that are sold that way. read more

A new change, they have a security guard, which was very good Someone paid to watch us, so they see me just going in to get stuff and leaving with the stuff paid I didn't experience the unhappy incompetence, maybe because the pressure is off to do their job and be the security. So it was good and I am content read more

Our winters are long and this is not-so-little gem right in the heart of the city offers underground parking (yay). It's never too crowded so it gives me ample time to browse the pretty large isles. The prices are not cheap, but not outrageous either and they have almost everything in stock. There's a ready-made section and a few seats to enjoy it but it tends to close too early for my taste. There's always a bit of a lineup at the cash but nothing too dramatic. read more

Provigo - the entrance to a subway station - Grocery Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Now that Adam moved nearby, I've been visiting this provigo a lot. It's clean and the staff is ok. It's convenient. Prices are a bit better for meat and produce at PA but for snacks and house products, provigo has the points program. read more

I go to this store because it is very close to my house and I have a soft spot for President's Choice products. But the quality of the fresh produce and meat is not very good. I got burned more than once by moldy berries and the meat is always expiring in two or there days. The fish is OK ( think they have good turnover), but because Montreal is really bad for fresh fish and my standards might be now low. There is always a mistake in my bill and more than once I was charged full price for a discounted item. If I catch it in time it then takes 15-20 minutes to get a refund. Also WTH with their "delivery" policy or lack thereof? It is 2020 and you can't still do proper online shopping. You either get your shopping done at the store, and get delivery after (I've been told your frozen items are not kept in temp controlled containers, so good luck), or you order online but you need to pick up your food yourself (again, your frozen items are kept at room temperature). Again, it is 2020 and there should be a better option than this for people who are sick, old, or simply too busy! read more

This is the worst supermarket in the Plateau. Terrible service, miserable employees, empty shelves, etc... Just go elsewhere. ALL the employees look like they'd rather be dead than helping customers. Why can't we rate ZERO on yelp? read more

I have been a loyal customer at Provigo at 55 Mount Royal West since it opened its doors. They offered a seniors discount on Wednesdays & therefore I regularly shopped there on Wednesday for the discount. Provigo will become a Maxi on September 7, 2023. For the last two weeks before the doors closed, they did not honour my seniors' discount. They said it was discontinued. It was surprising that a big company like Provigo would not continue to honour this discount until the final day. How unfair and greedy can the owners of Provigo be. It was disappointing. Also, the price of the Tropicana Orange Juice went up from $5.49 to $7.29. WOW... what a price increase from one week to the next. On my last purcahse, I bought an item which was 50% off but the sloppy cashier wasn't paying attention (as usual) & I didn't get my discount. I have since been shopping at Maxi on Jean Talon where the Orange Juice is $4.29. Shame on Provigo & all the wealthy greedy owners. I am looking forward to shopping at Maxi when it opens on Sept. 7, 2023 but will go elsewhere if the workers continue to be sloppy & inattentive. P.S. Even with the seniors' discount, I noticed the Provigo items were always an extra $1.00 of $2.00 higher than at Metro so I really wasn't get a seniors' discount. Shame.....Shame....Shame read more

Indoor parking is a great bonus. The check out service is really fast. They are always doing free food demos inside. The fish selection is great and inexpensive . fruits and veggies are rarely on promotion . there is a good variety of health snack. something that has been bothering me is that they have these annoying metal barriers in front of the store that could prevent an overweight person coming inside. I know it is probably there to prevent people from stealing the metal carts but if people wanted to steal. they would just take the baskets. read more

I was really happy with this grocery store to pick up some provisions for our short stay in Montreal. Many others had reviews online reflecting very poor produce, especially in salad greens. I was able to pick up all kinds of produce that actually looks really good. They also have a pretty good selection of gluten free items; breads, pizzas, etc. Overall this was a pleasant experience. read more

Meh. The store is clean, well located, has lots of beer choices and the hours are great. The produce is of mostly good quality, albeit expensive. I like all of the gluten free options here but I despise the cashiers: they gossip away to one another and flirt with the bag boys instead of greeting customers or even smiling, it's unreal and quite childish. read more

Whatever. That pretty much sums it up. I have nothing positive or negative to say. It's down the street from where I live. Great when you're missing 1 ingredient to finish your meal. Besides that, I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. It's expensive, the employees tend to rung AWAY from you when you have a question and it's always a mess.. but they have what I need. read more

This is one of the most expensive places to buy food in Montreal! Almost everything is priced higher than anywhere else. The produce section is particularly outrageous in terms of its pricing. There are other, better places to get your groceries, that will cost you potentially half as much. (Think St Laurent and Duluth) read more

Has the best fruit that I've found in a grocery store in Montreal. I'm thoroughly spoilt by the fruit I get from here and don't like going to other grocery stores now. Its good both in quality and variety. Besides fruit it has a good variety of everything including organic stuff. The rows are well organised, well-lit, spacious and I've always found it very neat and clean. I'm a happy customer! read more

Located in the old Mont-Royal Arena, the best part is that there is underground parking off of St-Urbain. The store is fine. I've seen them throwing away food at night and it's a shame, it should be donated to a homeless shelter. But other than that, it's easy enough to find what you want and go. read more

I love to hate this place. The location can't be beat, it's more of a hassle for me to drive here because of one way streets than it is to walk the couple of blocks from my apartment. It has everything a regular big box chain grocery store should have, and then some. The bread slicer is quite convenient (pro tip: stick a baguette in the bread slicer for super easy buschetta for a crowd). The selection of fresh fish is great. I find the produce pricey, but of good quality and variety. The not so good part is that I have to agree with Mike S., the staff is generally quite rude. I try to avoid going through a regular cash if at all possible, and will choose to wait for a self service cash, because I have had so many bag experiences with cashiers and baggers. Everytime I think it's me, I just have to go to PA on Parc or another big chain grocery, to realize that I only have problems here. With the price of groceries always on the rise, I want to actually be able to enjoy the food I buy. That means no manhandling my bread, or throwing produce. It also means not putting my groceries into a million flimsy plastic bags when I have an armfull of sturdy reusable bags that I'm trying to hand over. Whenever I try to politely to ask the staff to please be a little more careful, or to use my reusable bags, I'm met with standoffish gruff staff. I once had a cashier yell at me for accusing the packer of squishing my bread. I didn't accuse him of squishing my bread, I just asked that they not ram the rest of the groceries into it. The other not so good aspect of things is that the store can get really packed. Monday through Wednesday evenings student discounts are offered, which means there are a lot more packs of roomates going shopping together. It's also pretty packed on Sunday afternoon due to the proximity to tamtams. And forget popping in on your way home from work to pick up something for dinner if you work a standard 9 to 5, you'll be there for quite awhile. So I get around all of the above by going early on the weekends, when the store is empty and I have my choice of self serve machines. read more

A huge grocery store with a massive selection. They have a lot of the same products as Intermarche Boyer Mont-Royal in terms of pastries and muffins, but there's a lot more aisle space and better looking produce. read more

The cashiers are jerks. I get that it's not the best job in the world but there's no need to take it out on strangers. Pulled out my card for the student discount (as advertised) and the guy just shook his head like he couldn't be arsed. The prices are nothing special except for the occasional good deal. Back to the PA for me I guess! read more

Awful, but I still go there sometimes only because it's so close to my house. Absolutely avoid it after 9.30 pm, there will be a poor cashier handling the whole of the business of the store with queues going all the way up to the meat section, while the store is full of staff whistling away. Daytime isn't much better, old cashiers, especially Vaso M. (according to her name tag) are lethal, as well as some old bald old man who is definitely on something strong and left me hanging at the till to help one of his vagrant friends. It tells a lot about this area that I still go there regularly, but definitely not out of choice. One good thing is they support contact payment with credit cards so I can get out of there quickly (although with their new policy I can't get away with not being asked if I've got a points card, no matter how uncooperative I look). I feel sorry for the few hard-working employees being laughed at by all the lazy assistant managers. As for the products, it's extremely inconsistent, prices are usually impossible to figure out, labels say different things in French and English, and if meat is discounted that means it's already starting to slowly walk away from that dreadful place. I had the most bizarre experience trying to get veal chops from the butcher because it was a few seconds after 7pm, apparently he could have been fired for trying to give a customer what he wants. I think product buying is made in Toronto because everything has cheese in it, absolutely everything, it's like Monty Python's spam. There's six kinds of pierogi, all with cheese, even if proper pierogi don't have cheese, every single one of the sandwiches have cheese in it. You can have anything you want, as long as it's cheese. Beware of the fish, it's usually previously frozen, but it's often written just in French or just in English or not at all. Meat is also something you should be careful with, I just bought a ham that was supposed to be two weeks before expiry date but smelled like excrement. Apart from that it's adequate. read more
