I've seen Indian curry pastes, chutneys and basmati rice, Mexican mole sauces, Trinidadian scotch bonnet pepper sauces, various Asian cooking oils for stir fries, British brand teas, Turkish bulgar and lavas bread, you'd be very surprised what a slow stroll through the aisles here will get you.

At this market, you will find hormone-free pastured meats, local cheeses, organic fruits and vegetables, bulk products, craft beers and green household products. The market opened in Verdun in May 2017 and it has been a favorite of many locals.

Tant qu'a faire, j'ai acheté des legumes bios, une bonne baguette et quelques fruits. Prix raisonnables pour des produits bio. Tout autre produits bios et vegan sont disponibles ici. L'achat local est privilégié. Les deux employés sur le plancher que j'ai croisé se sont comporté comme ceux de grandes chaînes Longer les murs et regardent le planche lorsqu'ils me croisent. A la caisse j'ai remarqué que je pouvais commander un double allongé et un pain au chocolat. Les deux étaient délicieux.

The 3 or 4 staff there are great and quite helpful in their recommendations for drinks if you've never tried anything. I've had the Green Giant and it's one of my favorites. They also have MUHC employee discounts (10% off) and loyalty cards that can be used for each purchase that isn't the drink of the month. I have to admit that it's quite pricey, but where else can you get such a large dose of greens and fruits in a smoothie? Don't be shy about asking for customizations either. For example you can ask for less ice in your drink or omit/add extra ingredients!

The prices are similar to other grocery stores in the city. They had a very large selection of produce and to check out they had several self checkout registers. Easy.

I've been coming here for a while and the pre-made counter is honestly underrated. The kale, couscous, and grape salad with feta sounds random, but don't knock it till you try it it's really good. They also have a great selection of flowers if you need a quick bouquet, and the meat section is always solid. It's not the biggest Metro, but they have pretty much everything I've ever needed. Definitely a reliable neighborhood spot.

I went to the IGA on Bannantyne and Desmarchais and the prices here are ridiculous even when compared to the IGA on Wellington. Strawberries for $9.99 and eggs for $7.29. I think what made me walk out was when I saw pudding mix which is normally $1.99 at the old IGA for $3.19 here. This place is price-gauging and people should know about it.

Having Loco along with Bulk Barn in my hood, I've already saved in terms of waste (due to…read moreunnecessary packaging) and got my organic GMO-free foodstuffs at prices that won't break the bank account. Whole Paycheck oops...I mean Whole Foods south of the border could probably learn something new from Loco. They are all about zero-waste here and you can't show up here expecting everything to be prepackaged for you. You bring your own bags, containers or you end up buying some of their glass containers (NOT plastic) to carry your stuff. It has made me use up all my Mason jars at home. The milk bottles have $2 deposits on them, the egg cartons are paper based. The dried pantry foodstuffs, cleaning agents, kombucha are all sold in bulk and by weight. The veggies are locally, Quebec grown and in the fall, winter and root vegetables rule here. There's a shared workspace downstairs and cafe in the front when you enter. The food market is in the back. The people who work here are super-chill and everyone here is clearly on the left. The place works on a co-op model. Places like Loco should be the norm everywhere.

Definitely somewhere I will try to shop more. Not only are whole foods (particularly non gmo and/or…read moreorganic) better to put in your body, but help our beautiful planet but using far fewer resources to produce. That being said, Loco not only brings these foods to you, but refrains from packaged products. Considering that nearly all food packaging is plastic or plasticized cardboard, this has a HUGE impact on the garbage created in our industrialized food system. I hadn't been prepared to actually shop here as I happened to be in the area killing time, but I did pick myself up some kombucha. A $1 deposit for my glass bottle (than is credited upon return if cleaned), and my kombucha only cost me $1.85! Yes it was for a smaller amount, but based on their price per gram it was still cheaper per volume than regular store bought kombucha, and I didn't feel like lugging a huge one around the rest of my day. They even had 4 kinds ready on tap! The concept is super simple! Bring your reusable containers (glass, tupperware, used windex bottle) and weigh it. Use the stickers provided to mark starting weight on your containers then shop, weigh and pay! I was impressed at their collection of goodies, ranging from miso paste t laundry detergent. Their fresh produce was limited however they've only been open for two weeks at this point. They even have a little lunch counter! The front half of the shop is host to a cafe and coworking space.

Has the usual IGA basic selections, along with it's prices. The bad: Store is small and you can feel yourself jammed in the aisles because they are so narrow.

Cashier told us to sanitize our hands just when we entered (we were barely in), and sounded very rude about it.
