Grocery Stores in Dartmouth, NS

“I’ve been shopping at Union Foodmart for 2 years. They have an amazing selection of food products plus cook equipment and other items to serve and consume your meal. The staff are absolutely lovely and eager to help you find whatever you need or answer your questions. Shopping here is always a fun learning experience.”

“Just picked up 40 lbs of organic Roma tomatoes at O'Bees, from Taproot Farms. More than I can fit in the photo...!Absolutely wonderful produce, and reasonably priced.What a great service. They taste wonderful. Incredibly fresh.I love that I can order produce online. This market is so handy, tons of parking out front, and easy to get to. I am going to freeze these wonderful tomatoes. No more canned tomatoes for this house.”

“I absolutely love this place (M&Ms) and have been eating food from here for as long as I can remember. The store is very clean and bright with a well laid out system and employees who are super friendly and extremely helpful. I can't say enough about the female and male (possibly partners?) who work here as they're really nice decent down to earth type folk that you enjoy spending a little time with in the store, like a friend. The food here is good too. A little bit expensive but the quality and taste is very good. Chicken strips, mozzarella sticks and butterfly shrimp are just a few of my favorites. If youre looking for a large quantity of frozen foods whether for a meal or a snack, youll definitely find something here. I highly recommend the food and customer service at this store as its been nothing but top notch for me.

“I would like to thank the exceptional pharmacy staff for going above and beyond in their service today, May 8/23. The girls are absolutely fantastic. I cannot thank them enough.”

“For some time we had been struggling to find fishes of Indian origin in Halifax. But since we came across Bay of Bengal, our challenge stands resolved. Rohu, Hilsa and other fishes originating from Bengal region are available here throughout the year.I will share an experience: they mistakenly had packed 2 different fish varieties i.e. Rohu and Hilsa, into same packet and on realizing their mistake, they gave us a fresh Hilsa without us even asking for it. This proves that the owners are committed to quality and satisfaction. Love the place.”

“Great enviroment! If you have the chance try the Harvest trail mix! It's my favorite! Also don't forgrt to stock up in double stuff chocolate covered Oreos! ??”

“The closest (so I guess my local) Sobeys. Have been going here for 4+ years. Seems like a typical example of the franchise. Layout makes sense and never takes long to find anything. Obviously busy at peak times but has never been so bad that it is impossible to navigate. Appears clean and have never noted spills or messes that were not being taken care of quickly. Stock is always organized and never just left out in general areas. Typically there is not staff on the floor if looking for help but are are easy enough to find and usually have a pleasant disposition. Usually enough cashiers open so that the lines are not too long and they appear to go at an average peace. At least one 15 items or less line and no self-checkout (can be good or bad depending on you perception). Usual parking situation (accessible spots at front) and store seems it would be easy enough to navigate if one had specific mobile needs. Also believe they have times booked for weekly sensory sensitive shopping but should call the location to confirm the day/time this occurs. Have gone in Sunday nights looking at the pre-made and bakery sections for reduced ("enjoy tonight") items and there is usually not lot of in this category (has been pasta selections available every time I have checked).”

“It's not a big store but has a decent variety of vegan foods and ethnic assortment. Like everywhere a lot of food is waayyy overpriced. Still sometimes you find good deals on fruits in season and some sales. I suppose they are doing the best they can and probably the buyers vote with their money. So if most people go for the unhealthy stuff, that's what drives the supply.
Sadly all grocery stores have a long way to go to match even the average grocery store in Toronto. What's most upsetting is that here in Halifax you can hardly find local produce. Most is from Ontario and such.”

“Plenty of parking in the free parking lot. Brightly lit regardless of the time of the day and it's a very clean parking lot. Entrance is clearly visible and accessible to everyone regardless of mobility ability.
Inside the store was welcoming although somewhat crowded with the "specials" of the day, week, or month not wanting to be missed it is brightly lit which is hard on the eyes if like myself you're sensitive to light. Aisles are not the widest but are sufficient for 2 carts to pass. selection of products is vast as expected and sale items are clearly visible. The checkout process is fairly seamless with the usual time delay of waiting on line for your turn. Self check out is an option. Staff interaction was minimal albeit not an unpleasant experience. Smiles and friendliness abound on everyone's faces. Exiting was easy and plenty of room in the cart corrals for returning my cart with no visible wandering carts to be seen.”

“Joan in the self-checkout section helped my family out of a stressful situation today. I was not anticipating our checkout terminal to lock up half way through scanning our groceries. She was very collected and ready to help. I cannot say enough good about her presence in the store. Thank you Joan!”
