Sobeys Glendale

I was at Glendale Sobeys today March 4th. I went in specifically looking to have a meat tray made. I got into the store at 11:00am and went straight to the deli. As I stood there for 10min, with approximately 8 staff members between the hot foods, cheese and the deli. The lady standing right beside me filling the cheese finally went into the cooler to notify the deli clerk that she had someone waiting. When the deli clerk came out of the cooler she asked what she could do for me. I explained to her in these exact words, “ I’m in dire need of your largest meat tray for 12:30”. Instead of asking one of the other employees to give her a hand, She looked at me like I had 4heads and replied “ oh no we need 24hrs” Again there had to have been 8 people on. I said to her that’s fine I will go elsewhere. As soon as I got into the parking lot and into my car, I looked up ANTIPASTOS, called them, I said the exact same words”dire need” she asked me when I needed it by and I told her 1 hour. She replied no problem it will be ready for 12:30. It was a 90.00 meat platter and it was ready when I walked in at 12:15. ANTIPASTOS was very accommodating unlike Sobeys @ Glendale ave. The woman at Sobeys should have taken the time to at least see IF it could have been done instead of saying oh no we need 24hrs notice. As this is something I would have done being a former deli clerk of this store when it first opened. I now know where where to go and not to go.

Visited on June 7/2023 (approximately 11:30 a.m.). I work the night shift. Coming home, I stopped off at my local Sobeys, to pick up a few beers. I usually use the self-checkout machine, but for whatever reason, today I decided to go to a cashier.Some old man with glasses (Ken or Kendall) rings up the sale & says : Wow. Drinking early

I was pleasantly surprised, I won a $50 gift card for Sobeys. So I went shopping there for the first time. The prices were reasonable and the store was well sto ked and clean.

Excellent sushi selection when you get there early. A bit more pricey than average but great diverse selections of groceries to choose from.

Very well kept store. Prices are outrageous sometimes but they're good deals if you pay attention to pricing.

Good store, good staff. Prices are a bit on the high side but everything they make in store is high quality

Foodland has a much better deli, Zehrs has a much better selection and quality of meat, Basics has overall much better pricing. Two of the only redeeming qualities of this Sobeys is they take Scene and they're closest to us. Sometimes it's worth it to shop here but often the extra trip elsewhere is preferable. Usually, we only shop here when there's good deals in their flyer, which admittedly is quite often.I know COVID has caused a lot of prices to creep higher and higher, but it's no excuse when a competing grocer has prices 15-20% cheaper and pretty much across the board for the exact same thing. In many cases, my local convenience store is cheaper.I have to single out the meat quality as quite poor, in particular beef. Even before COVID, we would get the same cuts of beef and have noticed the quality plummet to rock bottom. It is very sinewy and tough, irrespective of how we cook it. Every now and then, we try their beef again, hoping it has improved, but it never does; we normally need to discard most beef we buy here because it's got to the point of offensive.

I visited Sobey Glendale yesterday around 2pm and I was looking for specific sweetener, but I couldn't find. Mike was helping me to find that stuff, however it was not in stock at that moment, while later I was keep shopping the other things, and Mike finally found that sweetener from back and bring over to me. I really appreciate to your warm and genuine associates Mike! It was great customer experience. Outstanding! Thanks Mike!

Nice clean store. Has all you need at a decent price. Good service.

Good grocery store and open late most days to meet everyone's needs. The location is perfect as well!
