Reviews of Morello's Your Independent Grocer (Bakery)

Karen Bonello

Lovely store. So neat and well put together. We went in looking for something very specific ... Lupin beans in a jar. A lovely lady helped us but unfortunately they didn't have them.

Kim Darke

Friendly helpful staff. Store is always spotlessly clean. Food is always fresh and clearly labeled

Coryna U

Nicely stocked grocery with pharmacy. Was greeted by someone who offered sanitizer and a clean cart. It was nice to be welcomed and still see cleaning measures during a time of less restrictions. Easy to navigate layout and had what I was looking for.

Michelle O'Connor

Very clean, well run, friendly staff, following good COVID 19 protocols and shelves were stocked well.

Bitbat

I love going to this store to get food and other essentials for my annual cottage trip. The bathrooms are located in a very convienent spot, and staff are nice and friendly. Store is well organised and easy to navigate.

Alan Godard

I give Morello's 41/2 stars. the only complaint that I have is the lack of disabled parking close to the door. In the two months that I have had a sign, I have only been able to access the spots two times. Two spots are not enough. Either my wife or I are in the sore 4 to 5 times a week. Staff great and service is super. I highly recommend this store.

Sherry B

Inhumane treatment of live lobsters. Lobsters are double stacked having to stand on top of each other without any room to move. Very sad and disturbing that Morello's thinks it is ok to treat sentient living creatures this way! Otherwise Indpendent is a great grocery store. I hope they can make changes to keep up with current food species welfare research.

Malcolm Murray

Excellent clean shop Great service

Reviewz by Jewelz

Great grocery store. Some things are pricey but promotions and sales are good. Staff is pretty nice and there are never lineups. They have a pretty good gluten free section too. They carry Joe Fresh and PC products which is great.

Mary Heenan

Clean and bright store. Shelves were a little bare, especially in produce but it is also the Monday after several holiday closures.

Stephanie Woolacott

Fantastic grocer overall for great prices, great selection, friendly knowledgeable staff and clean store

Glen Taylor

I liked that there was an employee at the entrance who would spray hand sanitizer on your hands for you. Great Covid precaution!

Frank Hewitt

Always so clean and the staff is always smiling.

Ashley Junkin

Super friendly staff, feel very safe shopping here during Covid. I appreciate the announcement reminding staff to sanitize. Overall, the best place to shop in town!

Mike Pettler - Realtor

Very good grocery store BUT does not have a water cooler jug refilling station. Right off the highway with many people dropping in on their way to the cottage...but no water cooler jug refilling? Huh?

Went for a chicken dinner. At one time best place to get one. Used to be a 1kg chicken (average according to sleeve)and 2 nice sides, now it is a 900g chicken (average according to sleeve) and 1 side with only 3 to choose from for 2 dollars more. And that was just about 2 months apart of getting a chicken there. I won't be back if that is the way Dave wants to do things. Noticed the prices are higher there then anywhere in town. It is called independent grocers not independent gouges

Penny Mcfadden

Always have what I want

Kathy Fenton

My go-to grocery shop during Covid. I like the measures they have taken. Staff are always helpful and friendly.

Melinda Young

This is my go-to grocery store. Love it. The only reason I gave four stars is sometimes it can be a bit pricier than other grocery stores. But not so much that it deters me from visiting every week!

Diana Houghton

Clean store, fresh produce, in outdoor mall out of downtown core. free parking, with easy access to highway. ,

michele mcintosh

I feel very COVID safe in this store! Evidence-based precautions consistently practiced. The /owner manager is almost always there....safe for him, safe for me :) Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Locally obtained produce. Simply a great place to buy quality food.

Viewer #3

This place is always great. Olive bar! Friendly and helpful staff. Fully stocked and neat and clean

Eleanor Robar Holdcroft

Morello's YIG is everything you expect from an Independent. It's clean, well lit, has a huge selection, and is well stocked. They carry the full selection of PC products. Produce is typically fresh. The butcher often has great deals, and we use these to stock up on freezer meats for stews or roasts. We have never had any issues shopping here - and I don't know what else I could really need out of a grocery store.

Mike Williams

Nice clean store. I would visit this location again in the future. Its location is very convenient as it's close to the 115 @ highway 7.

Ingo Witt

Great place to shop lots of variety staff are amazing

Bizwar 72

Their hot food was absolutely terrible I typically enjoy purchasing hot food from loblaws independent zherrs etc but this was absolutely a horrible experience. Bought chicken wings and a rotisserie chicken both were so unbelievably dry

Ryan Hie

Great selection, though pricier than some other stores. There is a butcher, bakery and deli on-site and a good selection of produce. Parking can be crowded. I docked 2 stars because they clutter up the front sidewalk with seasonal items, forcing pedestrians to walk where the cars are driving. Also, the inconsiderate/lazy often park in the no parking zone in front of the plaza, further increasing risk to pedestrian traffic.

Joshua Kubinec

Most of my interactions with Morello's have been through the PC Express online curbside pick up system. I occasionally go in when I'm in the area and it's always been clean, orderly and well stocked. Overall it's been great. The people who bring out your groceries have never been surly and are usually pretty chatty which is nice when you don't get out of the house that often. The biggest draw back is when you don't get stuff that you ordered. I don't fault Morello's for that per se, as they don't run the website, but it's something to keep in mind when you're ordering stuff for recipes and you're missing an ingredient.

Alex Bushell

I have to say that Morello's Independent has been my favorite grocery store since Covid hit. Big enough to have everything you need but small enough to actually find it. Staff members are all wearing masks and using sanatizer as they work. Keep up the great work!

Debbie Hemmens

Beautiful fresh produce; good meats too. A very clean, full grocery store. Prices are a bit higher than some; but still have good weekly specials. You can collect optimum points here too! But you cannot price match. They have a lottery centre as well. They are conveniently located near Beavermead campground & park

Lauren Hatherly

It’s always a pleasant experience shopping here. Great selection, everything is fresh, and I’ve never had to wait long in line at cash.

Harry Meitz

Very pleasant experience, especially in such a large store.

Haddfrey Centeville

The person working at the self checkout asked me if I wanted bags, I got two. My wife did not want bags, and she went first to purchase her products. Suddenly the bag boy came up, pushed my wife aside and entered that she was using two bags, muttering “no one pays for their bags”, and strutted away, proud of his boorish behaviour. I will not be shopping here again.

Mark Ryckman

This location has recently added some excellent features to their fresh food counters. If you head to the deli section, you'll find an array of fresh soups and various dishes prepared by the chef including paninis, salads, etc. This location does not sell beer unfortunately, but it is conveniently located right beside an LCBO, a Subway, McDonalds, a Chinese food joint, and there's a Tim Hortons right down the road.

Wendy Foster

Good grocery with really nice team

Ryan Vilneff

They have a loser working in there meat department whom believes hes the hulk making claims I was someone who stole from there store an had been kicked out. I've never stolen anything in my life. He trys to use intimidation by holding a butcher's knife. I will be sure to let everyone know how horrible this place is! Neither myself or my family will ever shop at this poor excuse for a store again

Trailer Parts Canada

Shop here every week. The haters post on this sight because they can. Extremely clean store , prices are good . If you buy fruits and vegetables they will last a week or more in your refrigerator. My daughter bought fruit and vegetables from no frills they wete turning bad in 2 days my vegetables were still fresh in a week. Recommend this store to anyone. Haters go away and get a life.

Jairo Orlandi Neto

Everytime I go here the fruits and vegetables are always so fresh and always stocked up. They have their own sushi corner and also a hot food section where you can pick up various different cooked ready to eat items. These are very convenient if you are picking uo groceries for the week but do not feel like cooking for the night. Their cold cuts section is wonderful and the staff is knowledgeable of the meats. Their baking section also has an amazing staff and produce wonderful cupcakes, cakes, cheesecakes and more different products. They do have quick staff members on the till and are very respectful. This is a good grocery store for anyone and any range as the prices are also very good.

Candace Wells

The produce selection is excellent. Otherwise though, the prices are highly inflated (some of the highest I've seen in town) and you will certainly get a better deal driving a few km down the road to Wal-Mart or Fresh co for everyday items in the grocery isles.

Kelli Buckley

One of my favourite grocery stores in Peterborough. PC points card used here. Also has on-line shoping. Being in the same plaza as an LCBO and Dollarama makes it a great one-stop plaza. Great parking lot with traffic heavy at times but certainly easy to get through.

Andrea Yeotes-O'Rourke

My fav grocery store right now the optimum points is an added bonus. The stores always fully stocked and I never come home without everything on my list. Produce is always fresh and the meat selection has a great variety. Staff are very friendly and always willing to assist

Joslynn Burford

Helpfull and kind cashiers.the store is always clean ,fresh veg and fruit rotation.dates are always good with the meats and dairy.over all it's the best grocery store in Peterborough.

Jessica B

Ready-made foods from the front section and bakery made a great lunch.

Lynda O'Meara

My favourite place to shop in Peterborough. It's right off Television road. Easy to access from the 115. Quality of fresh foods and meats is very good. I like the PC brands which they also have. It's a bit pricier than some other stores in Peterborough but I like the quality. This store reminds me of a Fortinos in the GTA.

Amy Schroter

A great grocery store with a small town feel. Typically good prices, and friendly staff. Being able to collect PC Optimum points doesnt hurt either! Keep an eye on dollar sales! Good meat and produce and all the other things you would need in a grocery store.

Allan Hamzic

6.99 for a bagged salad are you kidding me. Also bought their store brand wine gums and they were pretty much ju jubes and nasty

Rob Evans

Their Home Meals Replacement section has a lot to choose from. Staff were very helpful and polite

Karyn McKnight

Good quality produce in a clean, pleasant environment. Shopping cart rentals are "free!" Even the bathroom is nice. A good selection of gluten free products, some clothing, and a pharmacy. Beautiful fresh cut flowers and plants are often available. The check out staff are plentiful and friendly. Rarely a line up. They also have a popular hot lunch counter, as well as a deli and bakery. The only reason I didn't give this grocery store 5 stars is probably obvious. You pay more for the luxury of shopping here!

Tracy Pearson

Nice store but prices are inflated compared to any other independent store I've been to.

T “Tea”

Same as Loblaws. Not as cheap as No frills, but has very nice produce. Deli is decent, but meats section is rather pricy.

Jenish Odigineyev

My favourite store. Good variety of products, meat is very good. Helpful staff and I get lots of points (cash) every time I shop there

Maria Sebastian

Had a really bad experience in the store, first of all I wanna say that the store is really good, we can find anything here. Most of the staffs are helping except one staff and I had a bad experience with her, that’s the reason I am writing this review, and her name is Madison. I was doing grocery purchase for instacart, I asked her when I didt find a product about where can I find the product? And she responded very rudely to me and told me that it’s not her duty to help me out to find the products I have to find it on my own. And she said that it’s Dave’s rule to not help any people who are doing insta cart. How are we supposed to know if the product is out of stock or not when we can’t see the item. It’s the employee duty to help us, when we can’t find a item. It’s my first time having a bad experience from a store doing insta cart, all other stores are really helpful, especially Walmart, cosco, etc. I’m not blaming all the staffs. Only the one I mentioned all others were trying to help us but she was trying stop other staffs. That was really a rude attitude. If Dave see this review please don’t think that we are blaming you or your entire store. Just expressing our feelings. Thanks

Mark Mann

I haven't bothered since they started making everyone line up and heard them like cattle to follow arrows and cut off your air supply with a mask. All this to shop at a place with terrible prices anyway. Good riddance to you and all big businesses! :)

Paul Schortemeyer

Great selection at this grocery store, and careful about COVID too. The parking lot is not my favourite... seems tight and extremely busy with McDonalds, LCBO and Dollarama next door.

Marjorie McDonald

The store, cleanliness, and variety of food definitely meet the standard of what is expected of a modern grocery chain, but the owners and staff make this location feel like a family run, community minded business. Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful. I'm not sure how their regular pricing compares to around town, but the quantity and selection of their mark downs is much better than what I've observed elsewhere. I'm sure this is an effort to reduce waste (and it wins me over because I love a bargain).

Laura Apple

Always really helpful and an enjoyable shopping experience. Probably my favorite local grocery store.

Middleton Lyn

Well stocked grocers carrying Loblaws brand products. Staff were very helpful and prices very good especially on meat and produce items Parking was available and substantial handicapped parking. Will return for sure.

the dingus

This is the cleanest grocery store I've ever seen. The shelves are always well stocked. The staff here is very polite and friendly.

dan johnston

Good selection that you can get elsewhere. Expensive. The manager/owner leaves much to be desired. A lady kept banging into me with her cart in line once and he said I was partly at fault. Really so spineless? So I stopped my daily spending there.

Ashley Magyar

Ten stars! Thank you independent every team member keeping shelves stocked, everything clean, checkouts moving, team members kind and motivated etc! Thank you for doing right by seniors and those with disabilities allowing them to shop before others. I am so amazed. Great work during this pandemic! You guys have all stepped up!

J.J. Hudson

Well laid out and great produce! Online ordering and pickup is pretty amazing too.

Morag Cunningham

Free carts, easy to find stuff, they have roasted chicken on a spit with potato wedges. Also fresh sushi daily.

Linda Hipwell

The store is clean. Has great prices and great sales

Realtor Mark Million

Great variety here, very clean and helpful staff. NOTE TO MR. MORELLO - My son has applied to work there and is really hoping to get a job stocking shelves there....so....you deserved the 5 star rating...but I'm also trying to pump your tires to get him a job!

Dawn Dawson

Such a great store with amazing staff and incredible owners

Kevin Salmon

Decent produce section. Good deli counter. I can usually find some good 30% off specials and I don't have to remember to bring change for a grocery cart.

Kyle Colvin

Great place to shop, either for ready made or items you need. Quick to open additional registers when the store is busy and by far one of the cleanest in the city. Also like the fact the owner is there if needed and not just left in the hands of others to run. Like any other grocery store, prices may be high for some items when not on sale, so watch for sales and stock up. But has been the first choice to shop since it opened even if I was in the other end of the city.

Jason J. Knott

Nice and neat..a place to find the hard to fine item..

Todd Steenburgh

Great selection of fresh produce. Very friendly and helpful staff, store is always clean and well stocked.

Kim Parcells

Always clean and the staff are friendly

David Whitehouse

I love this store. Everytime I can't find what I need, I find it here. Superior produce and lunch bar.

Woofy One

This store is a total and complete ripoff when it comes to their pricing. All they see is dollar signs when you walk in the store. Do yourself a favour and shop for your groceries elsewhere. Greed is what they're all about. SHAME ON MORELLO'S Your Independant Grocer for what you do.

Venessa McCracken

Huge selection of fresh produce & baked goods. Always like the variety in each section at this location.

Doug

Expensive prices, you're paying twice as much or a significant mark up compared to most other grocery stores. They discriminate against people who bring in backpacks as per their policy at the time of no reusable bags but how is someone that gets around on a bike as their main transportation supposed to shop at the store? Oh right they can't therefore discriminating against anyone who doesn't drive (I was refused entry merely because of having a backpack on my back, waited in line for 15 minutes just for that). The ironic thing is their staff doesn't respect social distancing and you can often see them clumped together chit chatting with mask not fully covering their face. I recommend shopping else where even if you need to travel an extra 5-10 minutes.

Bill Steedman

Morello's is Peterborough's premiere grocer. Friendly and motivated staff. Spotlessly clean. Quality products at reasonable prices. The owners are wonderful people.

Ju Kee

My favorite place to shop. Been going here two years now and always pleased.

Ryan L

Love this place! I do my groceries there but I also stop in for lunch while I'm at work. The have a great lunch deal with chicken tenders and mac and cheese. Soooooooooo yummy!

Naomi Su

Shelves are always stocked. The prices are great for the high quality of products. The store is always clean and staff is exceptionally welcoming and helpful. MYIG is my favourite grocery store in Peterborough. I will continue to shop here for years to come. Thank you Morello family for your service to the local community!

Pablo Szabatin

I love the freshness of their produce. The store is clean and ready to access. Inside items are clearly identified and ailes are easy to navigate. If you use walkers, scooters or wheelchair you will able to navigate to get to items. There is plenty of parking as well. If there was any downfall it would be they do not price match.

THE 18th STRATAGEM

Friendly and helpful staffs expect one “Madison”. I am really disappointed with her rude service. My friend was doing insta cart grocery delivery and asked for help to find some products, she said that we are not payed to help you guys its Daves store and Daves rule that says any of the staffs are not allowed to help any insta cart shoppers. She was shouting and yelling at me. Moreover she was trying to stop other staff’s from helping me and my friend. Note for DAVE : “Please educate your staff that even we are shopping on insta cart we are also customers... we don’t work in that store to know which products are available or which ones are not available. Staffs are there to help people to find products and clearing there doubts about the products in the store.” Its my first bad experience from a store, feeling so disappointing and frustrating. From this behaviour i will never suggest the store to any of my friends or family members just because of that one staff. I wish this never happen again to any other shoppers. I request you to talk with your employees and advice them to behave good with the customers and people like us who are actually helping the community at the stage of pandemic. Just let them know that we are also customers we are just purchasing in behalf of other customers who can’t shop in store due to the pandemic reasons. Thanks ????????

Sharon Wood

Love this store! They have everything you could ever want. Prices are fair. Staff is friendly. I don’t know what more you could want. And that I could walk there is a bonus to me!

Steve B

It's an okay store not my second choice I thought Loblaws an independent were kind in the same style of pricing but seems like independent is about two or three dollars more but if you're out of something definitely the grocery store I would make due.

Rhonda the Dog Groomer

Just started shopping at Morello's online only. Both my husband and I dislike grocery shopping so going online and having our groceries brought out to the car within a minute of arrival is amazing. The staff go above and beyond their duties to ensure our list is fulfilled.

Deborah Wittekoek

This is a grocery store that offers everything food to go hot cold salads made fresh every day, variety of clothes, Deli wich is awesome, bakery, really nice staff and I can't say enough about the owner Dave.

Douglas Hamilton

The day I shopped it seemed that the shelves were not properly filled. Couldn't find some items found others in a couple of places. Seemed they were short on some items. The aisles are not well marked. So squeezing by a display and another's cart is challenging. Don't enjoy being squeezed. It has been my go-to store because of the LCBO. There another grog shops.

Andrew Curzon

Been shopping here since 2011 when I moved to the area. Clean store. Friendly staff. Fresh produce meat and seafood. Highly recommend.

Megan Ward

Hands down my favorite store to shop. Not too big not too small. Amazing customer service! Deli, Meat, cashier's everyone is always smiling and genuine.

Martin West

Nice selection of food and clean bright store. A bit out of the way for me but they have great Greek flavoured pork chops, so I will return.

Deborah Arnauld

Very clean and responsible in Covid precautions. Great staff.

Tammy M

Very clean and VERY friendly place to shop. PC Optimum points are my favourite point system out there! I have saved a ton of $$. Highly recommend this grocery store ????

Jennifer Burke

This is our go-to place for groceries. Staff is always pleasant and helpful and store is spotlessly clean and well-stocked. The owners are terrific couple! Prices are good as well and produce is very good!

C Mansen

Great cashier. Helpful staff throughout store. Good gluten free choices. No money required for a shopping cart.

Sue Crossman

Best deli and bakery in the city

Hugh Macpherson

Store is designed well....except for the congestion caused in the checkout area by the ever increasing volume and additional space required to process virtual shopping from home.This situation needs to be rectified ASAP

dave condon

Insist on "SANATIZING" your hands with whatever mystery solution they have in a spray bottle. ABSOLUTELY ABSURD my money will be spent elsewhere

Susan Smith

Went to get a birthday cake because I always felt they had quality cake there. One had a word I didnt understand and I asked the girl what kind of cake it was. She didnt know either so she asked another lady. This lady said *we dont make the cakes, they just come in like that. They dont come with nutritional information so I have no clue what is in it*. There goes my idea these were quality cakes.... So I went with a different cake. They refused to put a birthday greeting on it..due to covid. I phoned a couple other places and they said that rule applies only for shutdown, it hasn't been a *rule* for months now. So I had to take my cake to a different store and pay extra for a greeting. Last cake i buy there.

Ken Burns

No lines great selection super pleasant staff

Dennis Beukelman

Good selection. Though very busy

Angie Zavitz

Clean and tidy. Good selection. Annoying that carts are stored outside but not deal breaker. Nice deli and seafood counter. Always a lot of tills open.

Jesse

Great place to go to grab a quick lunch on the cheap

jigga man

Very clean well stocked but prices more outrageous than Beverly hills stores ridiculous!

Grace Post

I was having trouble carrying some grocery's out the other day and a wonderful young lady approached by the name Jessica and offered to help me. Jessica was so respectful with social distancing as well was extremely kind. Fantastic customer service from that young lady.

Crystal Wilson

Awesome selection. Love the deli and hot dishes. Produce is unreal. Got to stop here

Marianne Olajos

Clean, safe, and Covid screened environment.

Bee Claus

Best place ever! Very clean. Very well-stocked, and the staff is great. Love their Bakery and cakes. I go here all the time to get birthday cakes for family members.

K B

Dave Morello and all his staff are amazing! We recently had to cancel plans to travel from a distance to celebrate our mother's birthday. We got in touch with the store to inquire about ordering a cake from their bakery. Well... Not only did we end up with a beautiful amazing creative "Elvis" cake, but Mr. Morello and staff also helped us coordinate Mom's birthday from afar! They helped to put together a birthday package that included two flower bouquets, a balloon, and the cake and had it all ready to go when we sent a neighbor of my mom's to pick it up today! Yes, in the midst of all this chaos and stressful times, this wonderful man and his wonderful crew helped us to give our Senior mother the fabulous milestone birthday she deserved.. in spite of none of us being able to celebrate with her! Our sincere gratitude and heartfelt appreciation goes out tothis wonderful crew at Independent for going above and beyond to help us out and make a world of difference!! Thank you!! ????????????

Jeff McNab

Morello's keeps raising prices and reducing selection. At least 10 items I used to buy there are no longer stocked. And $38 for a tub of feta cheese that you can buy same product elsewhere for $22. Feeling gouged. Maybe they feel the transient cottage goers don't care about prices but we're locals and don't like feeling like they're pushing prices to the limit.

Gus Dekking

Hi, I just wanted you to know that my recent shopping experience was filled with people blatantly, ignorantly, and belligerently not following pandemic protocol. I had one women push her way through me in the wrong direction and said “ I don’t care” when advised nicely that she was going in the wrong direction. The check out girl was of no help and totally silent when I nicely mentioned it to her. What’s going on at your store? Do you need help?

Shannon Power

My favorite big grocery store. Excellent deli, good flower selection and lots of variety. Nice staff, organized really well with new procedures.

Occupation Sucks

Good grocery store with everything you would expect. The ready made foods selection is good. The produce is also good. It is an easy grocery store to get to when traveling north.

Lynn Ferguson

I love the freshness of there food. The staff are always friendly and the store is always clean. Amazing place to shop

carol taylor

Well organized and stocked grocery store. Good produce and bakery facilities. Easy to navigate building. Prices a bit higher than some but lots of deals available.

Chuck Nasty

Great premade hot food and salads makes dinner easy as a Sunday morning . Store is always clean presented nicely. So fresh and so clean clean.

Will Thompson

The fried chicken and onion rings are amazing! The girls serving me have all been great as well.

Cathy Barker

This store is always spotless and the staff are friendly. They follow COVID-19 rules to the letter. I am disappointed how they have changed the lottery desk. It’s vey confusing how to have to stand in grocery line even though the tickets are to the right. You cannot get cash back for your tickets. I dont understand why but you can get cash back if you pay for your groceries by cash.

Teena Smith

Always stop here on our way to the cottage get their amazing chicken finger meal feeds all 5 if us! Pick up those little things we may have forgotten. Nice clean store helpful staff.

Nightwing Stewart

Awesome place to shop and lots of great deals. Sometimes however it can get very busy and line ups to get into store and checkout at till can be long

B L

Very clean and the staff seem happy and willig to help. Can get a bit pricey but when sales are on they are usually great and well stocked.

Mary

This is a nice store with friendly service. The self checkout lanes work very well. The parking lot is also very clean. Occasionally, there is live music in the parking lot.

Rachael Sutherland

Love love love everything about it:) great store gtreat prices and last but not least great staff:) The store is always extremely clean and fully stocked up especially when sales are happening - I highly recommend this to all my friends

Sharon Swain

Clean store. Friendly staff . Very customer focused and community minded. Wish Joe Fresh section was a bit bigger and wish they carried the packages of molasses cookies in the bakery /bread section more often but a great place to shop????

Bryan Reid

I love this grocery store, throughout the entire pandemic I've always felt the safest when grocery shopping at Morello's compared to any other grocery store in town. If it wasn't for the swing bridge being closed I'd shop there every week!

Lisa Hatherly

Every time i come to this store i love it more! It is well layed out and spotlessly clean. I always find new and interesting products that i have not seen before. It is a pleasure to shop here.

Beth Gage

Clean and well laid out. The staff were very aware of and followed Covid rules.

jenanne dixon

Always have more than enough lanes open, very quick service. Produce is pricey but high quality. Meat and poultry regularly have good deals.

John Lowery

Awesome store ! Clean, staff is friendly and helpful. The products are always fresh and they're always stocked up on sale items ????❤

Tracey Bell

Lots of choice and variety but really expensive. Sales can be decent though. Store always clean and employees pretty nice.

Donna Daynes

Morello's Independent in the WillowCreek Shopping Plaza is a fabulous store. We do not shop anywhere else. Their meat department is always very eye-appealing and we can select the portions geared to our 2-person meals. The produce is always fresh and there is a great selection. Love their deli for quick hot dinner pick ups! The staff is knowledgeable and friendly and quick to help out when asked.

Tracey Mainolfi

Store was clean and employees friendly and helpful. Great produce selection. Some items a little overpriced.

Eyitayo Aloh

In a Shopping Plaza with some sort of competition around, it can be hard to stand out but I definitely think that this store is doing something unique to stand out of the crowd around them. The environment is clean and comfortable enough to observe social distancing while shopping in a safe area. I also applaud having an attendant at the door who sprays the customer's hands with sanitisers while politely asking if he can get them a disinfected cart. The human touch is noteworthy. While it is not my local, I will strongly recommend this place as a shopping spot for those living in the neighbourhood.

Steve Stewart

Clean and well stocked store... My favourite grocery store in Peterborough

Terry Covert

Since moving to the west end your store has become my go to, the store is excellent, always well kept and clean. The staff are amazing, so helpful and respectful ( a staff to be proud of).I have mobility issues and the cart is a god send, the only thing is I feel bad about using it all the time. I’m getting well known lol. In closing thank you for being (in)dependent lol Ps I would like to give more stars.

Dan Corner

Love this grocery store. I always see the store manager interacting with staff and customers. This grocery store has everything you need. Presidents Choice is my favorite.

Bonnie Naish

I go here for my mess when needed and live to shop while I am there as they have great indoor sales from time to time . There is also a dollar store and a sub shop there ....so sausage and egg breakfast sub . Yum yum and there is also a Macdonald's so great one stop shopping area . Gotta luv that ....saves in gas ....

Patricia Marshall

Great selections, good prices, free parking. Clean, bright store. Very friendly, knowledgable staff.

Stacey Hamill

The most expensive store in town and they don't price match WOW. Then the cashier had a big smile on his face thinking it was funny that we tried to price match. The prices are almost tripled. Would have given a no star if I could

doreen summers

I shop there all the time. Nice clean store and very helpful staff. I moved to Peterborough 2 yrs. ago and haven't found any better.

Gillian McKee

They're meat department is always good..enjoyed their selection of garden ornaments

Maria D.

Really appreciate the variety of selection/ produce that is fresh and specific to my needs!

Kurt

Seems to be perpetually busy, like all the time. Parking lot could be a bit better designed, but the store is pretty well laid out and the staff seem really nice.

Ben Snelgrove

Just had our first shopping experience. We found the store to be full of a good selection. Good pricing and friendly staff

Erin Gerow

Great produce section, would give 5 stars if they carried more Joe Fresh and more health foods - I go to the independent at Lansdowne place if I need that stuff

Michael A Edwards

I stop at Morello's on the way to my cottage in Apsley most of the time. I find the selection is always very good grocery wise. Lots of variety pricing seems reasonable. They have an excellent deli with fresh seafood lobster etc. If I am hungry I pull into here rather than the MacDonalds which is right out front. They have freshly made deli sandwiches hot whole roasted chickens chicken fingers, fried chicken hot meatballs etc. Fresh baked goodd from their own bakery! Significantly better bang for the buck than Mickey Dees! Check it out it is well worth while.

Lynn Drags

Felt safe going here until the other evening when I had seen a fairly large group of employees standing around the customer service desk with their masks down talking to each other standing very closely. I had to wait for one of them to notice me for a couple minutes. Not one to leave reviews but I feel the owners are good people and will use this feedback to improve so I will feel safer. I suggest monitoring your younger staff more during the evening/night

Douglas Greenley

Always friendly service and usually always have good quantity on sale items

very rude customer service from the PC express manager. I've been ordering my groceries online for quite some time now. There was an issue with the substitutions and the people at independent not understanding my order. When i arrived five minutes early and called to pick up my grocery order, I had received attitude on the phone stating "yeah yeah, i know who you are. We'll be out after i'm done my break" even though it was 9:00am in the morning. Upon coming out, the customer service was awful and unfriendly. No smile on the face, clearly miserable, and slammed my trunk on my car. Manager of PC express should not work here. I order my groceries online to avoid going into a store and exposing myself to covid. However, if this is how a MANAGER is going to treat someone, especially during a pandemic, what does this say about future workers that are being trained by this person? I pray that someone higher than this woman corrects this matter.

I picked up some flowers for a friend and took them to the customer service desk. Samantha was working the desk and made them into the most beautiful bouquet!! I will definitely becoming back for more bouquets done up be her!

It's too expensive in general but sometimes has great sales. I would never do a full grocery shop here. Clean most of the time but a few times I have gone in its been dirty. It's close so I use it on occasion for weekly sales.

Michele Ephgrave

Great family owned and operated business. Vast selection

Bryan Pownall

Well organized all cashiers are working very friendly lots of merchandise

Nicole Juffs

This store is clean and never crowded. Perfect little bakery and big deli. Always see the store manager on the floor working with his staff.

Donna Elliott

I love the selection and the freshness of the produce and bakery. The store is always clean and welcoming. However it is more expensive than most other grocery stores.

Alexandra Clay

Not where I usually shop. Staff was not as friendly as I expected. I got what I needed right away and went to the self check out. There are signs up saying wait to be told which check out to go to. There was an associate assisting and older gentleman and didn't acknowledge me until he was gone. She simply pointed to one of the open checkouts and said it was clean.

Ernie Milley

Produce ,meat,bakery, prices can be a little higher. I wish they would stop those going wrong way up the aisles.

S Wolfraim

Always have what products or items I am in need of. Food is fresh and good.

Gail

Staff is always friendly. I didnt get my Optimum points because of a computer glitch but Wendy phoned head office for me when I couldnt get anywhere with head office and she got my points. Thank you wendy for going above and beyond! I hope your bosses appreciate what a great employee you are!

Dave Cavanagh

Margaret Zatorski

I have been few times ok store sometimes get what you want or not, depends what store i go too or near or far in mood going out buy my groceries!

Kathleen Lang

A wonderful store. Clean bright well laid out. Friendly staff. The owner is a huge supporter of local events the most recent being the big fishing derby for the kids. I love when businesses give back to the community. Would like to to see them open at 6 am during the week though. I would stop more often as it's on my way to work.

Jim Waters

Great prices and good inventory of items. Very friendly check out staff.

Erika Roberts

Nice clean store, excellent produce and a friendly staff. My favourite place for fresh fruit and veggies! Oh and the girls in the bakery are amazing I might add!

Rob Brun

Best place for flour.large selection and all sizes.Was on sale all last month.Great in store flash beef sales.Good cooked chicken. Very sad they throw out small chicken tenders.(give me 4 or 5 small tenders instead of 3 big ones.)Safe covid-19 measures.Prices high on some items.

Michael Edwards

Very clean. Lots of verity. Helpful staff

Gordon Stout

Always a pleasure going in Morello's grocery store. They have a wide selection of just about. I find the store a little pricey but that's just the way it is

Sam Cheng

Staff always friendly and helpful. I enjoy shopping there

Ryan Goodhead

This is my go to grocery store in town. Independent has fair pricing, helpful staff, clean and good variety. Docked one star because you can't do half stars and they do t have a good selection of vegetarian meats.

Kate Toms

Staff are always friendly. The store is always clean. The quality of produce, meats and fresh items can’t be beat. This is my go-to store for groceries. I am never dissapointed.

Ryan Mahood

Everything is about 15 to 20% more expensive than competitors pricing. The store is well stocked and meets the requirements of Lablaws corporate standards yet falls short of high end Lablaws Superstores. Sadly it is in the perfect location at the end of the 115, so they can demand a premium.
