The place feels well cared for and I also felt cared for as a customer! The groceries/ bulk foods all seem very high quality. I had a vege pate sandwich and it was delicious. They offered to heat/toast it which made it even more delicious and it was quite large; it lasted me two meals. I also had a coffee which was also very good. They had a lot of nice looking sweets, as well, but I held myself back . . .next time!

I have been to this location several times due to the convenient location. This is NOT a boutique…read morehealth food store. It just pretends to be. Please read labels. Their selection of vitamins is rather poor and so is their stuff knowledge about vitamins and health food. Most cashiers I have dealt with have been nice, but staff on the floor are rather full of themselves and far from being helpful. It is also pricey, considering the quality of most their products. I find Branch d'Olivier a far better place for health food and vitamins, plus the stuff there are truly knowledgeable and helpful and prices are fair. One more thing..... they pay minimum wage. What a shame :(

It was amusing to find an Indophile place close to the loft we'd rented. We searched on Yelp and…read moreGoogle for veggie food and this came up and we decided to check it out.

They say they have "bulk delivery". You decide…read more Ali once claimed I was the St. Henri store's first customer. I have type-2 diabetes. Which I've mentioned multiple times to ALI, as I've tried for 40 years to get him to carry stevia, the only acceptable sugar substitute for diabetics (according to my doctor). So much fun realizing they just eliminated it from their shelves...altogether. But it was this bulk grain order that's turned me off this store, perhaps for good: I ordered 5 X 20KG bags of grain. Kamut, Spelt Rye, Buckwheat and Oats. The Kamut, Spelt, Rye and Oats arrived in a reasonable amount of time. And, as I am handicapped, Ali brought it right up to the third floor. Nice. I haven't seen any sign of the buckwheat, in the 5 months since. Despite Ali giving his word it was coming. But the oats were the kicker. "Not fit for human consumption" is the description I'd give them. Every mouthful a festival of oat husks, and I'm spitting that &^%%$ out for an hour after every breakfast. I told Ali about it, days after it was delivered, and again, he gave me his word it'd be replaced. 5 months later, I'm still waiting. When the weather's good enough for me to get to the store, with my two canes and without my ebike, limited to about 3 blocks range...I limp to the store and I'm told that "Ali doesn't want to deal with this." Well. I don't exactly want to deal with an enormous bag of pig-oats, which I'm now forced to eat every day. I NEED oats for my diet. And there's no way I can carry a 20KG bag downstairs to throw it out. So now I'm forced to eat BAD oats I don't like...and to wonder why I'm being treated so shoddily. So "bulk delivery"??? Meh. Use TAU

You can either fill it up yourself or there are pre-bagged ones for sale.

This is probably my favorite Metro Location, rarely a bad experience here…read more It's in a strip mall sandwiched between Town of Mount Royal and Outremont, with a vast parking lot. The quality of the fruits and vegetables is second to none, and when they have specials, they have enough and don't run out. The deli and cheese counter has a great selection as well as great service. The bread and pastry section is very varied and anything I get, I loved. The meat and fish section is also very varied with lots of options for all budgets. That is for the left side of the Market as you walk in. The right side of the Market is more standard, but well laid out and again, a great variety. The service is really superb, there is rarely a lineup and you have a cashier and bagboy almost all the time at every counter. There is now a small food court to enjoy your food on the go and there is some live music from time to time.

This is pretty much the best supermarket in Montreal. It has fairly good fresh produce; from fruits…read moreand vegetables to seafood. There are a number of more exotic items, gluten-free products, as well as all the basics. The prices are on par with any other supermarket, but the location might be what makes it take it to a more desirable level - you probably won't see too many people in their PJ's here. Here's my stickler point: this is a service-oriented business and while I appreciate that the days may be long and standing isn't pleasant (I've done my share of it too, once as a supermarket cashier...years ago), employees shouldn't talk to customers on too personal of a level. I don't need to know your life story and I don't want to tell you mine. Once a conversation got sort of insulting towards me, it was very misogynistic and I was too surprised to do much other than leave.
