Reviews of Reid's valu-mart (Butcher Shop)

Deirdre Oake-Scott

Has a lot of the things I need, but I often find that once I get to like something, it's gone. That could be the companies that supply the products though. I just don't get why when I want KD I have to choose between whole wheat pasta and white cheese?! I used to be able to have both! I want tasty, but I also want it to be somewhat HEALTHY!

Pam Cooney

Always good deals... easy to find everything, clean. The raspberries tend to mold fast but i think thats the berries not the store.

John Bianco

Often great product and service. Bad days happen.

Kevin Drummie

Great prices but one cashier is a notch hence the low stars

Peter Ehmann

Food was good but a little pricey.

Wayne Douglas Perry

Great customer service and selections

Jody Reeds

Local grocery store. Treated with respect and always welcomed.

Dean Clarke

Definitely no Value at Valu-Mart prices are high!

Kimberly Hoare

Close and convenient for picking up weekly household grocery needs. Thanks!

Tracy Hennekam

Recently did "click and collect" at Reids Valu-mart.. Laura was quick, kind and helpful. It went as she said it would.. and early too. Good job!

Charmin Eckertt

Helpful and friendly staff

Jeramie Carriere

Not bad prices, friendly workers and people to bag your groceries!!

OverGrowSupplies Inc.

Best prices in Lindsay, good selection and best of all No Tourists; staff and patron's are always polite and friendly. Great Community Food Center

Mit Patel

Used to be an amazing store with great service. Now the employees have become rude. Thought I'd give it a second shot after my first bad experience, but this was just ridiculous. Get horrible service at the deli and get my recipient thrown at me during cash. Good luck getting more clients

Raegan Burrage

I am surprised at how dirty it was for a place that sells food. The hot table for the ready made fresh food was gross and looks like it hasn't been properly cleaned in months. Lights were burnt out in most of their freezer section. Over priced for a "value" grocery store

David Fraser

Great place to shop for groceries and always find what your looking for

Jeffery Adams

Always has fresh produce and great butchered meat . I recommend Reid's for all your family foods . friendly cashiers all except this shorter in stuture but a couple extra lbs young girl who always seems to look grumpy , that or with gets very nervous when a customer walks into her lane . uncertain really what her problem is . maybe she just don't like myself if so she has issues as I have done her no wrong . but in a small town who knows what's been said. . other then that great place to grocery shop

Mitchell Gilliam (MR.Brightside)

Good deals and great staff

Julie Archer

Great service

Mischievous Mistress

Not here often but seems to be a clean, well stocked store. However, I am giving 2 stars because I had a cashier tell me to mind my business when inquiring about one of my fianceés points cards which had our place of work written on it which I'd never seen before - the cashier telling me not to touch my father's credit cards.

Ken Hale

Convenient location when visiting my granddaughter in Lindsay. No big line ups.

Glamorous Furry

Prices are reasonable cashier with white short hair not so friendly

Thomas “Pip” Milne

I went in for cheap bacon. They had cheap bacon. I walked out with cheap bacon. I cooked then ate the cheap bacon.

Julie R

Parking lot needs lines repainted taking the light posts into consideration... The store needs to stock dairy free cheeses. Otherwise it’s pretty typical.

Carol Moore

Clean and well stocked

rosalie bala

Great family grocery store. A big plus is the number of open check outs with friendly staff who recognize their regulars.

Jason Chesebrough

Good selection of produce and meat, nice and fresh veggies. Staff is doing their best given the time we're in. Not a huge fan of being charged for bags when they won't let me bring mine in, however that's really my only negative comment. Nice store.

James Mccabe

Prices not bad. Lots of choices when they have sales on get there early or they will be gone. Great deal on the chicken wings and tenders.

Erin Connor

They have a nice selection of food and some of their staff are really nice

Helen Price

Small town friendly with big city products....always a happy face to say Good morning to....always a pleasant experience

BODACIOUS

My home grocery store. Love my Valu Mart. Owner is a fellow JEEPER.

Dwayne Legacey

Great grocery shopping store . I realy like being able to buy a 10 dollar package of the best hot chicken tendars around for supper after a long day of work and grocery shopping before i go home

Chin Chinchilly

Nice place, great prices, bigger inside than it looks on the outside :) They have my favorite Cracker Barrel cheese -- Can't find any other store in the area with it!

Taboo Saboo

Alot of paperboxed-fetalgenocide-driedpreserve in narrow isles, since I was a toddler...this is a strange morbid world/store.

Karin Scott

Great veggies and fruit. Very helpful polite staff. Large selection of meats and good sales

Ricky Tang

I wouldn't go during covid. It's very small and the store is doing their best with signs and one way direction but people don't really follow them. Customers don't really respect your space. Meat selection is very small and limited.

Armand de Sillègue

Very nice grocery store. Staff is friendly and shelves are stocked, and it's very clean and welcoming.

John West

Love this store. More refined stock compared to loblaws, but better for elderly and immune compromised individuals during the covid pandemic.

Norma Lyons

Shop there all the time..able to find what I need if not I ask for help the employees r very friendly n polite..

Virgie McK

Amazing service and a great selection of products

phillip grant

Great specials every week. Love the way things set up specially for an old hockey arena lol

Beth Burke

Well stocked for products I was looking for.

Kris Reynolds

Best grocery store in town, locally owned they have a great selection, but still focus on all the small town locally owned items that are really important for the community. I try to buy everything here whenever possible .

Jess Heath

Just love the staff here very helpful,

Cathy Walsh

Friendly and helpful Staff, efficient Cashier. ????

Lynzee B

Decent little grocery store. Produce is a little pricey sometimes but it's cool because I just go to La Mantias across the street for the produce I need. ;)

Jeff Reece

Only went there once what can I say it's a good store I guess

Tonya Pye

Never a line up to get, the store is always clean, organized AND stocked. Do pretty much all of our grocery shopping here, everyone's so friendly and helpful when we do need ask for help

John DiNatale

Excellent service and considering virus stipulations

Edson Johnson

Loved visiting the store.. My drive to and from Reid's Valu-Mart is less than 10 minutes from my house! It's a very pleasant shopping adventure!

Anthony Chessman

Friendly staff. Ģreat bakery. Lisa is the best cashier.

Jeremy

I gave my mother 20 bucks to go into value mart and make change for the laundry Matt down the street and she comes back with 10 in change. Keep in mind my mother is a senior citizen so I went in too get the rest of my money. The cashier argues with me for about 10 solid minutes well there’s a line up of customers in front of her. What poor display of customer service. My suggestion to anybody that’s stupid enough to buy food here simply count your change and look at the bill before leaving. These girl obviously failed at basic math

Geoff Watson

Unfortunately this place doesn't offer many quality products. No free range eggs, and there are tons of farmers in the local community ... No organic or local crops...it just doesn't make sense. I only shop here if I have to....I wish they'd support their community.

Colleen Anderson

Pros: Good variety of food, nice staff, collect optimum points and produce is usually fresh. Cons: can be pricey $$$!

Tory

My favorite grocery store

Tracey Mechefske

Nice, hometown supermarket. Aisles are cramped and not a huge selection but good deals on sale items.

Deb Hallett

I LOVE that they have staff who specifically help pack groceries and offer to wheel them to your car even if you seem completely capable - customer service at its best. All the staff are very friendly. Also - if I could give EXTRA STARS for still having ALL-HUMAN CHECKOUTS and keeping our students and others EMPLOYED... I definitely would!!!

Matthew De Vuono

They have lots of stuff here. This is a great place to do your everyday food shopping.

Shaleen Jacobs

I love there selections

Joyce Knight

Good staff and reasonable prices

Ashley McMartin

Great, clean, well managed store. Fresh produce and amazing deli!

Neil Hanes

Service was a little slow because I had to wait for someone to show up at the lotto centre. After paying for other grocery items, they didn't ask for my PC points card and had to apply for the missed points online. Teller was polite and friendly and the store was very clean as usual.

Chris Zajchowski

Has almost everything and you never have to wait longer than 5 mins to check out

krisnathedarkone

It's a grocery store. Not a bad place. Not the best, but not the worst either

Richard Noonan

Great selection of various foods, good prices, friendly helpful staff, very clean ????, its the only place in Lindsay that I'll shop at

MomingWithADHD

I have been going to this store for a long time and will continue using this store. They have the best quality in produce and fresh meats and bread. The staff has always been friendly and very accommodating, especially during these times the kindness I receive makes shopping a lot less anxiety ridden. Continue the fantastic work and your employees deserve a pat on the back ????

Jessica Montgomery

Clean, good order during covid. Not long wait lines. Very nice staff

John Mirabelli

First time at this store and was pleasantly surprised how well stocked and have really nice staff.

Mark Lethbridge

We used to shop here all the time up until today. I was in Value Mart this morning and picked a package of 4 pork chops, finished my shopping about $40 worth. Got home a short time later and opened the pork chop and imediately wanted to throw up. They were marked best before the 19th of March. These had already turned and they absolutly stunk. So back to the store and I asked to see the store manager. The owner came down and I asked him if he would like to check my pork chops. He declined and I asked him why is rotting meat being sold in his syore. He told me he has no control of meat products in his store. I did get my money back but I won't be back. Beware and donot buy any meat products that have yesterdays date on them.

Deanne K

Filled with PC products, clean store, helpful staff, pretty good stock.

linda fraser

Always fresh produce and pleasant staff

Sylvie Lien

I shop there whenever I'm staying at the cottage and although they are smaller than a Walmart or a Supercentre, they always have what I need as well as the fabulous Kawartha Dairy Ice Cream which is to die for.

John Kirk

This is the best food shopping place in all of Lindsay. The manager need to be congratulated, that so many things are done right, and excellent staff. My favorite store to shop for food. I rarely give away5 star reviews.

robert mccardle

pride in ownership show

Jason Huygaerts

Super friendly staff, excellent service and high quality produce. Huge selection at reasonable prices. Very clean, well maintained and easy layout. Fantastic meat selection as well as veggie cheese and fruit trays. They also sell cut flowers if you are in trouble. ???? I told my wife it was like the TARDIS. It's bigger on the inside!

Lorraine W Allen

Very nice store great deals.

Nancy Wood

First AWESOME store. I called from the parking lot and asked if they had toilet paper. The young lady, customer service said let me look. Came back, yes we do and said what they had, I said can you hold i will be right in, in parking lot. Went in , paid, I thanked her in fact i said I love you now. GREAT service during this crazy virus happening.

James Addison

Always expensive, not very diverse in the food selection. It does have a good deli and bakery though.

Ashley Mark

Amazing

Norman de Bellefeuille

They have the aisles clearly marked as to which way you can move amongst them. The store is akwardly designed and the aisles are quite narrow so the directions helped. You cannot use your own bags here yet and I wasn't sure where their hand sanitizing stations were. Overall it's a good reason to visit Lindsay and they do have a nice downtown with newly renovated and exceptionally wide sidewalks.

Alex Childs

Decent groceries but staff are funky kong

Laurie McMIllan

Great store, great staff, prices not so much

Carroll Croutch

Well stocked. Not too large. Easy in and out. Lots of cashiers. Rarely any wait time to check out. Friendly, helpful staff. If you can't find something... ask... they will order if they are able. I've shopped here for 20 years.

Alyssia Maschke

They sell a good variety of kawartha dairy ice cream flavors (more than Loblaws in town)

Alexandra Nemisz

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate this place and its employees. Since this pandemic hit they have respected everyone equally. Those who cannot wear masks are not chastised and treated like lepers. You will forever have my business. Just know you all are extremely appreciated and I wish nothing but the best for each of you. The prices are great, people are amazing, sanitizing station, social distancing and direction arrows are all very helpful. So again thank you so very much.

Elizabeth Rutledge

I like going to Reids Valu MART THEY have good buys in there some time

Jenn Bianco

Love coming here but if you want anything from the meals to go counter be prepared to be treated like garbage and as an invonvience for the people working there. They advertised a "playoff bucket" of 36 wings and a large wedge for $20 for the superbowl, but when you order it they get really rude and try to talk you out of it. Happens even if you come in to order their regular meals to go as well.

Siegrid Varty

Local grocery store with awesome fresh meat at great prices

Debbie Quibell

Grabbed some wings at deli after work great deal for $10 deal

Lee Andrews

This family owned grocery is a very friendly and well stocked. Great place to shop!!

Marilyn Felhaber

Friendly staff, good values, sanitizers at door & one way arrows on isles. Great clean store

Hugh Shannon

Friendly staff. Efficient service. Fantastic selection.

Cooper Olm

Prices are decent, but some of the cashiers are very rude. I visited a couple days ago, and was listening to music as I shopped. Removed my earbuds as soon as I got to the checkout lane, and left them hanging around my neck. The woman checking out my items and the one bagging them seemed to think my ear buds were still in, and made snide comments towards me and laughed about it, commenting that I couldn't hear them. I have difficulty with social anxiety and this interaction sure has not made me feel great about enterring the store in the future. Even if someone believes another person won't hear it, they should treat them with basic courtesy, especially then on the job.

Katherine Perrault

The cashier's are friendly and have many options here and it is the inly grocery store that will cash your government cheque i.e o.w, child tax etc as long as ya spend 10%

Terry Coombes

I only buy items that are on sale .Staff needs training in people skills.

Martin Mcfarland

Great store but prices are higher on some things that are found cheaper other places

Joseph Teatro

Absolutely the best personal touch from the owner operator to the Carry out service. Hats off to all.

brandon smith

Good place

Zach Sheehey

Good section. Ready to good hot meals. Pc points.

Probably best place to buy meat.

Michael Duke

Good food usually a little higher prices than other grocery stores though.

Kevin McNamee

They always have what I need and very fast and friendly service

Michelle Martorino

Do not always have what I need.

Missy

Any time before yesterday I would've given this store 4 stars.The produce is treated properly -- unlike some stores that toss it around like nobody wants it, anyway-- it's nicely laid out with ample room between shelves -- once again, unlike other stores in this town that will not be named-- but the prices are a little higher and the staff are so-so. What changed my mind from 4 stars to 1? My mother went in an aisle to pay for her groceries, placed her groceries on the belt and waited behind a couple patiently. When it came to be her turn the cashier turned to her and said "this is a handicap only aisle". Now, the couple before her showed no more of a handicap than my mother, but the cashier decided to make an unjust judgment call and alienated my mother. Now, my mother is not one to make a scene and said she didn't notice (which is true she hadn't) and just said something along the lines of "I just chose this lane because I like the fact that you're a hard worker" to which the cashier bluntly responded "well, I've never received a compliment before" (gee, I wonder why????). Quite frankly, I'm not sure when having grey hair became a handicap since that was the only difference between my mother and the couple ahead of her besides the amount of people making the transaction. Nor am I sure when there became such a thing as a "handicap only" aisle with a judgemental cashier that knows instantly who has a handicap and who doesn't... But now my mother no longer wants to return due to the fact that she feels she doesn't belong there.

Les Bowser

With so many distractions in the world, how can a grocery store excite anyone these days? With friendly staff, great products, good pricing, and teenagers to carry your groceries to the car, plus never a lineup at checkout. At this Valumart you're supporting a community of friends.

Stephen Gwilliam

Great °

Diane Kenedy

When I visited Reid's valu- Matt the deals were great. They have the best meat in town. It's a very nice clean store. Staff are very helpful.

Steven Godzisz

Best Cold Cut Prepared Sandwiches that are Fresh as Fresh can be!

faisal rasool

Nice place to shop probably the quickest check out I ever saw in Grocery store.

james villneff

Good place to go

William Osterloo

Excellent store ,has everything I need or want .Friendly efficiant staff .Highly recommended. To the lady with the dog issue..In Ontario only properly trained service dogs are permitted in a store where food is served or sold The owner was only doing her job .

richard didier

Really good everything!!

mickey t

Great for groceries. Prices are consistent.

Richard Kearns

Very friendly and serves all our needs with a delightful small town atmosphere.

Jon Tamblyn

Convenient downtown supermarket. Store however is very outdated- I remember when it was the site of the old arena - and needs some modernization. It should be on the main street- it is just an empty lot on Kent St. Not even a big sign telling you it is there. Selection is good however and less expensive than Loblaws on the other side of town.

Joan Abernethy

During Covid-19, I appreciate the efforts Reid’s have taken to tolerate customers. Nothing worse than being yelled at and belittled by staff for making a mistake following all the rules that change so frequently. I really like your “stay safe and be kind” t-shirts. Thanks for being kind.

Travis Collins

Clean, organized and very helpful staff!

Tammy Fleming

Great prices.

Shelby Cameron

Make sure you try to meals to go counter, they have the friendliest staff and the best lunch options in town for under $10. I also love all of their made in store bakery items.

jon godwin

At your store today one of your employees came out and very ignorantly accused my disabled friend of stealing wile she was looking at some strawberries to buy they told her to put them back.dose your store have a problem with a disabled person having strawberries? Then after scaring her into putting back the fruit she wished to purchase, this disgusting individual walks back into the store saying how she had been watching her the hole time she was there.if that was the case she would have seen the $100 dollars of groceries that she had just payed for.this horrible display of ignorance and cruelty was witnessed buy my daughter the cab driver (who dose diliverys for the store, tho he said that after seeing that he will not anymore ).I will never shop at your store again,and I hope others that I tell about this will follow suit.

Brenda Ackerblade

Reid's valu-mart was very clean and shelves were well stocked.

minamax100

Pretty decent prices, fresh produce, would be nice if there were a larger deli meat section, fast lines. One major problem.....cashiers love to gossip and will talk to their friends first before serving the customer.

Jennifer Bruce

Always friendly staff and easy to find what you need

Andrew Nokes

Nice clean store with a good selection. It can just get pricy.

Joyce Hooper

Lovely custermer service there.

Frances Emery

Their fruits and veggies are excellent quality. If I can't find something, they're quick to help me find it, and always cheerful too. I LOVE that there is no piped-in music!

Kyle Tanner

Leanne Corneil

Love shopping at this store.

Gail Hendricks

Not impressed with coming home with two halves of bbq chicken to go that the deli girl said would be cheaper if she put it in one container which it wasn't. I was charged full price of $11.99 at 7:15 pm on a week night for chicken that I couldn't even cut with a knife it was so hard and dry it was not edible at all. Couldn't even break off pieces with my bare hands. Probably a good thing that I wasn't able to eat it because only God knows how long it had been there! Shame on you for not providing freshly cooked products at dinner time for families to take home. Your store is open for another 2 hours before closing. Foodland sells their bbq chickens at half price when it is near to closing time. Never again will I purchase this product from your store. Btw, the cabbage rolls tasted off as well! No dinner for us tonight thanks to this bad experience and I'm out $11.99 + $8.37 + tax :(
