This review is for Shoppers Drug Mart Panvish Pharmacy Ltd. at 436-6 Ave SE, Unit 106, Calgary, AB…read moreT2G 0G7 Terrible customer service. They treat EVERY single customer suspicious of a crime and thinks all customers who carry a full reusable blue bag from Superstore intends to steal their cheap makeup and merchandise and have their incompetent insecurity team follow regular customers, as manager's lame excuse of its location being in a "vulnerable area". They thought I was gonna steal a cat-shaped kajal black gel eyeliner and their fresh-of-the-boat shop and INsecurity staff who speak little to no english at all from an impoverished third world country known for doctors and engineers and designated shitting streets, low trust society , just because I was hyperfocused on one product due to my neurodivergence and carrying a superstore used blue reausable bag. I asked the paki-beauty advisor who have seen me and remember me if I was being profiled as a criminal because their insecurity guard keep following me. He communicated it was a "misunderstanding" and they two communicated in a foreign language which did not help the situation and the insecurity guard didn't stop following me which made me feel like I am being targetted for just shopping and window shopping. I paid my eyeliner sharpener and eyeliner costing less than 6 cad$ total. I told the customer service person about the unacceptable treatment and profiling and he apologized. I told this employee that I do not get treated poorly at more expensive and luxury stores like Chanel and they do not even sell precious luxury items to justify their poor treatment. 2 days after, I called that branch to complain and follow up but their employees acted as if my legitimate customer complaint was inconveniencing their work and hanged up on me whle I was calmly speaking and told me that my business is not welcome there because they were butthurt that somebody has called out their uncivilised and inappropriate customer treatment. I do not recommend visiting this branch because of the criminal activity happening and the gangster manner of its poorly trained, maladjusted and incompetent, inefficient in time management employee. If you cannot handle complaints by customers, the lifeline of your business and why you have this job in the first place, please self-deport to where you once came and never get employment in customer service where professionalism and competence are very important. Do not tell customers they are bothering your work because your failure to plan and execute your job duties are horrible and you cannot handle high level customers who are not there to be criminals. Do you understand? Shout out to that Russian-accent women on the phone who toned policed me and complained to me about her bad time management. Please go back to serving Mother Russia. Your lack of customer professionalism do not belong in Canada. Please boycott this Shoppers Drugmart Panvish Pharmacy at East Village. Terrible are, terrible staff! Unprofessional and unsafe! I hope that they close this area permanently.

Oh my goodness! I've never felt so welcomed and important in any drug store in my life…read more Since I am staying at a nearby hotel and walking around discovering downtown, I needed to stop and get a couple of things from a local drugstore. I walked into this location through one of the indoor access is, with a large envelope in my arm. One of the associates spotted me and assumed I was looking for a post office, and she so politely and sweetly said that they didn't have a post office there, but started giving me directions on where the closest one was and asking me if there was anything else she could help me with. Wow! I think her and asked her for other things I was looking for in her store, and she cheerlead brought me around the store, personally showing me where the items were located. Again, this has never happened to me! This store is so clean, so brightly lit, so well laid out, and everything is so easy to find. The staff were incredibly friendly and smiling and wishing me a good day. The only negative I could find was that I didn't get to interact with a live person at the checkout, they are all self-serve checkouts. If you are downtown, looking for a fully stocked and fully friendly drugstore with a huge variety of items, this is the place!

I LOVE this Costco! It has everything California doesn't have! The food court here has poutine…read morefries and hot dog + soda combo is only $1.50 Canadian which is only $1.11 USD! Just when you thought it's a deal just got better! I got an order of the poutine fries by default of course! Coming to Canada and having poutine fries is like going to In-n-out when going to California. You gotta do it! An order of poutine fries was $5.99 and boy it was a big portion and really hits the spot! It has heaps of cheese and gravy, I'm literally drooling on my phone as I type my review! I also love that they have chicken strips and fries on the menu too... The service here could be better. It's such a high volume that they just call your number, give you your food, and next! But what can you expect at a high volume Costco food court lol. The many extra food options is top notch however!

Awful store! To start, I am 63 years old and I never wanted to be a cashier or work in a grocery…read morestore. Nor do I want to check and bag my own groceries, which I was forced to do as no cashiers were open!. I have been a faithful Safeway customer for over 20 years but today that ends. Safeway has closed my favorite store (Thorncliffe, where the employees were soooo nice and they knew me) so the next closest is Beddington. NEVER AGAIN! (and I mean never!) I realize as I write this that a corporation such as yours doesn't care if I return or not. I get that but in my opinion, Safeway/Sobeys is now on the bottom of my list. several items I purchased wouldn't even scan and due to this I needed help. (of course I did as it is not my job! I could understand if I scan my own products and do your job there was a discount, but of course there isn't!) I am ashamed of the state of your supermarkets now. I'm aware of others that feel the same way I do. SHAME on you!

Produce is a hit and miss unfortunately (they have really nice peaches right now from okanagan) but meat, fish and grocery sections are excellent. Baristas at Starbucks inside the Safeway are wonderful as well. We wanted to order honey oat latte, however honey was not available due to some stock issues at Starbucks and the wonderful barista ( her name was Anne) made it nicely with vanilla after apologizing profusely. All in all, great place to get your groceries without much fuss!

Staff seems a bit overwhelmed or tired looking. Lines move slow. I am not sure if it is because of the flu season but it does have more traffic than one of its competitors.

I have been in numerous times, to pick up packages, to buy stamps and to make copies and the employees here are always so courteous and helpful. They even know me by my first name and make a point to remember know my specific postal needs. While you are there and you need last minute items, pick up anything from all occasion gifts, health products, and even climate items, the last time I was there it was raining madly and I was able to find quite a fashionable umbrella at a great price. Parking can be awkward, so park at the Macs across the street, or take advantage of the 8th Street SW terminal right across the street
