Love the store. Friendly staff, prices are reasonable. 10% off on Sunday’s and various discounts. I prefer it over larger stores and like supporting my local stores and will go out of my way to shop here even if it is a bit more expensive.

Since they opened in the neighborhood Urban Grocer has saved me many times times when I've been in need of something for dinner or a missing ingredient! Freshest produce and beautifully organized. It's amazing having this store join the neighborhood!

Did not expect to find amazing deals here but came across their flyer online and stocked up. Huge selection, store is a lot bigger than I thought, friendly staff. 10/10 would recommend!

My go to grocery store now. Produce section is excellent and staff knowledgable and helpful. For a smaller store it has great variety and selection with many different products. Friendly helpful staff! I recommend this store highly! Keep up the good work!

There's some kind of discount almost everyday, hours are decent. The variery of items is impressive, from no name brands to really bougie stuff. Surprinsingly affordable for an independent grocery store.The self checkouts have the proper volume set so the voice isn't screaming in your ears, unlike every other store.You're not gonna find things the size to feed a large family, I think it may be more catered to younger urban singles and smaller households.

I had a problem with a staff member a while back. I emailed the owner and he immediately rectified the situation. He also gave me a heartfelt apology. I won't let one bad seed ruin this experience for me. Love this little grocer!

I love this place! They have the best mix of fancy/local stuff alongside inexpensive, accessible options (they carry President's Choice!!). The staff are super friendly and helpful, and there's generally a positive atmosphere in the store. The easter egg hunt (where they hid plastic eggs around the shop with different discounts/gifts inside) sealed the deal for me as this being my favourite grocery store, it was so fun! Such a special, local, non-chain option that caters to all income levels. Bravo!

Wonderful coffee, great selection of healthy and affordable meals/snacks to go, and competitive produce deals! Love this place and their priority on local goods ❤️
