“My package was in good condition, the place is rather small and the employee on site despite the fact that she did not seem to be used to taking care of package pickup, was very patient and checked my identity and the parcel, ensured that it was in good condition and I judge that despite the fact that it is not she who usually takes care of the service (maybe it was (she started working at this place) was of an efficiency appreciated for having been able to understand all the important details before delivering the package and all that with exemplary kindness and good humor”

2955 Saint-Charles Blvd, Kirkland“enjoy wine selection. i rarely buy other stuff so i can only discuss wine selections. staff are very courteous and knowledgeable. always enjoy discussing wine I tasted with them.”
“Never had a problem here, this SAQ is good. If you need to buy a lot of bottles though, there's the SAQ Depot next to Costco where they'll have less selection but volume pricing.”
“Wine warehouse! I love it! Adequate selection of wine at a decent price. I find the prices without discount are lower than LCBO. The more you buy, the more you save. 10% off for 12 bottles. 5% off for 6 bottles.”

4777 Boul. Saint-Jean, Montréal“This outlet usually has a wide variety of excellent wines & spirits to select from. The SAQ App also makes it easy to know that a favorite product is in stock. Staff are always available and several are very knowledgeable about the products carried. Particularly if they have personally tried a wine you’re interested in trying for the first time. Disappointed when one (1) particular US wine continues to be out of stock when it is always plentiful at the LCBO in Toronto.”
“As many have mentioned, the store is smaller and has an appropriate but somewhat limited selection. That said however, the staff is super friendly and helpful - always with a smile on their face and a kind word. So long as the store has my product in stock, I will always choose my “neighbourhood” SAQ over the other bigger outlets.”
“The advice received was superb! The recommended wine matched the meal!!! The advisors were overwhelmed but still took the time to advise me well. Just a few too many personnel changes.”
“(Translated by Google) It is a small branch but you will find a manager and a welcoming and competent staff. The basic needs are present but, unfortunately no more.(Original)C'est une petite succursale mais vous y trouverez une directrice et un personnel accueillant et compétent. Les besoins de base sont présents mais, malheureusement pas plus.”
“The SAQ just moved to a new location in the same strip mall. The location has a great selection and helpful staff. It is also a rather active brach so there are frequent taste tests and the ability to discover new goods.”
“It's a small mall SAQ but they usually have good selections and helpful staff. If you want something specific check their app. Never any problems here in my experience.”

Boul. Saint-Jean B, Dollard-des-Ormeaux“This SAQ is conveniently located on Boul St-Jean in DDO and open till 10pm every night 7 days a week but I find the selection is limited compared to its SAQ Boul. St-Charles location which has a little bit of a better variety and usually a more friendly customer service staff.I buy rum and wine mostly and I find the selection for both items is somewhat better in the Kirkland boul. St-Charles location. They are both SAQ Express open late(10pm) every night but if you are equally close to both as I am, then definitely go to the Boul St-charles one where even the customers are a bit more civilized. ?Often the Boul. St-Jean one is filled with a loud younger party style clientele especially closer to closing time. You will often find people parked right in front of the door being loud and you may find there is sometimes a small lineup to get to the cash.I would also recommend getting yourself the points card the SAQ offers, if you use it every time you'll be surprised on the savings it can bring you after only a few uses.You can also find the 'coup de coeur' labels you'll see posted under different products, this is also a good way to discover new products that are suggested by staff members with their first name written on the card that actually tried those products and deemed them worthy of mention for the customers to enjoy as well.Of course this goes without mention but always remember to drink responsibly and when you do drink don't take unnecessary chances and let someone else drive who didn't drink or call an Uber to arrive safely at your destination.”
“Anyone visiting an SAQ pretty much knows what to expect - from the size of the store to the types of best-sellers. What's important to me is how well-informed the staff are and how friendly and helpful. After all, they may not have the exact brand you're looking for, but they can offer insight into what they do have. At the same time, a helpful -but not overbearing- employee makes all the difference between a casual browsing for something new to a quick run-in for a specific bottle. For this reason I've gone out of my way to visit this store as opposed to any closer to where I live. During Covid, I found that the store kept things clean and moving (wiping carts, maintaining the required number of browsers, etc)- their processes never impacted any of my visits and I felt safe in relation to the other customers.”
