Food Basics

Fabulously clean organized well design store and I'm one of the hottest days of the year was beautifully delightfully cool in there I took some photos for you

Highway 15 Food Basics great place to shop for groceries. Yes it has changed they added 5 self checkouts. Would be nice if you paid me for doing your job...

The store is impeccably clean unfortunately like anywhere else prices are going way too high, I prefer it when they had more people working on the cash outs

Clean, good prices, okay produce/meat, excellent parking. Cashiers are what you would expect. Our only issue is somewhat limited selection, none of certain luxury nice-to-haves. So, a good Basics store.

I'm usually not a big fan of the Food Basics chain. I've been elsewhere and the stores are dirty, the produce is always poor quality, and they don't have much to offer in terms of baked goods, deli, seafood, etc due to the discount nature of the chain.However I love this particular store. This place is always sparkly clean. Shelves are well stocked, the produce is great with lots of selection to choose from, the staff are friendly. I've never picked up milk or anything that was bad from here, which happens a lot at other stores. You can just tell the managers and owners put their heart into this. They hire many of out wonderful students as well. This was such a wonderful addition to our East End.

The good - Nice and clean, the meat and vegetables look fresh.The bad - there are 3 different locations in the store for beans. Two for hot sauce and two for pickles. It’s split up between aisles 6, 7 and the end of 5/6. I’m not sure why this is laid out this way, however it’s pretty frustrating if you didn’t know this before you went shopping.

Food Basics is a great little store. Parking is easy and convenient. They have the freshest produce department and their prices are very competitive. Their floral department is poor so if youre going for flowers, search elsewhere. The staff is friendly and usually there aren't big line ups. Nice to have another grocery store this end of town. There's also a pharmacy, a pet store, lcbo, Starbucks and a daycare center. One stop shop!!!!!

The only thing they didn't have that I wanted was a single bum for a sandwich

By far the cleanest, well organized and fairly priced grocery store in Kingston. I highly recommend taking the few extra minutes it takes to get there.

Good place to shop. Not a lot of choice.
