The pharmacy at Food Basics is awesome. Joe and the gang are so helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Prescriptions are filled very quickly. Prices are definitely great and LOW!

Finding staff to help search for items is relatively easy and the checkout staff are top notch. (Especially JoJo) The store is usually well stocked with what I'm looking for so I can do one stop shopping. My favourite grocery store by far.

Messy store, items are in weird places, shelves are poorly stocked or messy
