Reviews of Choices Markets (Butcher Shop)

Max C

Fantastic staff and products. Matt the store manager really knocks it out of the park

Don Parkinson

We like to shop at Choices Markets for they carry many wonderful organic items. This is a smaller store which doesn't require lots of walking up long aisles. We also attend their Delicatessen for their selection of dishes made in house. Here is where I select many of my lunches to take to work, as well as for home.

great selection of gluten free products much better than Whole Foods and cheaper !

I shop the 13 and Lonsdale location when I want an amazing steak! Yes you might pay a little bit more but the quality of their produce and meats is amazing.

Mathew Maybee

A great grocery store with decent prices and really friendly staff, highly recommended!!

Sarah D (EatEnergizeEvolve)

Great store! I just wish the selection of bars were better.

Kati Rodzon

Lots of gf and vegan options but very pricey for a regular grocery run. Go here for specialty and then the thrifty foods or save on around the corner

D. Sal

Great staff, nice environment, good selection of products ????

Judy Singers

Choices is one of my favorite food stores. Lots of organic and gluten free options.

D S

Choices actually has amazing food selections! It's my choice!

Carmen Tarcan

Horrible. They have increased prices substantially. I am wondering how is this helpful when so many people are out of job. 14.99 for a bag of potatoes. Life is not fair, deh.

Sasha M

Great selection of health foods and supplements.

Andres

good selection of mostly healthier and organic type food. most available at any large grocer but you wont have to look around for it in a huge store. this store is cozy and good size to find things quickly. There is no clear line of what they do and do not carry, so some things may not be as "safe" or healthy as other options. employees dont know if its all organic or GMO free or just random products that just seem healthy. HIger prices, but I would go back there for select items.

henry nagel

Good quality fruit and vegetables. Small store with limited choices.

Alan Hill

They have some great produce but tends to be more expensive than other grocery stores. I don't go here for my weekly shop but will buy a few treats from here - and usually when they're discounted!

Chelsea Lasko

Love Choices, they are my favorite organic grocer and often have the best prices

Angad Aulakh

Nice to have a grocery market near to the main road. Nice people always ready to help.

Holly Fairweather

Fresh and yummy food. Deli is amazing!

Narayanan Doraiswamy

good super market with nice selection of vegetables meat and other condiments; they carry array kf organic produce at comoarable rates; taken 1 star out for the fact that i have remind the people they sometimes carry products beyond expiry dates this remain my go to supermarket.

Trish Everett

Shockingly expensive compared to other stores in town but very nice otherwise

Michael “The Building Manager” Thompson

This organic grocery store is amazing. Fresh organic vegetables presented beautifully. A bit more expensive but worth the money.

Emma Bowman

Mostly good but some items are crazy expensive. Also negative comment about a sandwich I bought. Probably one of the saddest sandwiches I have ever eaten and for $8 I expected better.

Dexter Cole Anderson

They may not have very many staff there but every staff member they do have there is the cream of the crop. They are super helpful and very attentive! Plus that mango passion pudding cup is to DIE for ????

Darren Hepple

Good prices on organic vegetables. Good selection of meat and vegetables.

The Garrison

It's pretty good I would definitely suggest going here to buy your groceries and getting something to eat there's also a lots of car space lots of car space you can park your car in is all so many places to park your car in your bike I definitely just going here and if you're willing that you can also park your car inside the building

KL Everfree

Excellent selection on organic and natural foods. I enjoy strolling down the aisles and trying new healthful foods I haven't seen.

Sabrin Alzabidi

Healthy choises for sure

Hannah Nieman

Nice small restaurant, good of organic options and some keto produces too. The store is pretty small so there isn't a huge selection of baked good. Staff are friendly and helpful when asked questions.

Diana conesa

Got everything I needed great selection many choices fast friendly cashier

Cat Carleton

Wow this place is expensive! It is great for the variety of products for different diets, don't get me wrong. Not many grocery stores can say they have easily available keto options in the baking section. However, for the non-specialty products, the same products you can get at Loblaws stores, or even at local produce markets, the prices are very high. Unless you're buying a specialty product, go somewhere else for the basics.

Choices market sucks and they made the 24/7 macs/circle k stores leave the area. It was the only convenient 24/7 store in the area. I regret buying into this area now.

Mark H

Good products but deli needs to understand that dairy is an allergen.

R. Bray

Great location, lots of parking and very good quality items but disappointing that there is no in-store bakery :(

Ben Rosenoff

I love choices because for Paleo like me or Keto or GF or Vegan or whatever your preference you can probably get it there. It is so well named because it is all about your choices.

Lynn Krukowski

One excellent store with lots of local products. Good selection of organic meats, wild fish, organic dairy and gluten free. Staff are pleasant , helpful and knowledgable. Thank you for your great service

Arash Salamati

Great local market. Great prices, they have some of moray exotic fruits and vegetables. Their meat selection is good and reasonably priced

Aaron Adams

Great local selections, lots of organic and specialty produce and goods.

Caitlyn NK

Love the products here. Really good sale prices for specialty foods. Awesome vegan options.

Jacob S

Lots of options to help my family eat healthy. Great staff!

Pi F

Perhaps the largest Choices out there (although that might go to South Surrey), and the triangular layout is a little maze-like, but everything you'd expect from Choices ... Including super friendly staff.

Jed Grieve

A bit small, and limited with loads of other options in the direct area, but what they do have is good quality and their staff are always super helpful

Kat Zambo

The manager here is awesome. I wish I got his name (tall with glasses) He was so kind and wonderful. I will definitely come back just to chat with him!

Paul Lawrence

Although slightly expensive it's very good quality fresh foods in a well organized supermarket is second to none.

Andrea Faught

Really nice store! Great staff and high quality items for good prices. It's like Whole foods but reasonably priced :)

Patti Houston

Love choices. Great selection of gluten free, salad bar rocks and really good customer service.

Virginia Dee

Had a good experience with Choices market recently. I think the selection is really good at this store. Although the layout is a bit strange it is a really good size. And once you get used to it it’s all good.

AK Schreiber

Love their organic produce selection and plant based choices!

chris butler

Try Nora's seaweed snacks next time. Three types of which two have a tempura coating. Unbelievable!

Sarah

Love the store, the young staff members are always friendly and helpful. Food is good.

Erika Quee

They have a great selection of healthy foods and lots of gluten free options. They also offered a kids colouring contest and hunt so have a good community vibe.

Joshua Furmanczyk

Good selection of products, access to the store is great for walking but the parking lot with constant constructions can be a bit of a deterrent. Pricing is slightly higher than other grocery stores, however products are fresh and stock is presented well

TC

Nice boutique type Super Market but very pricey!

Sean Seguin

Awesome price and Gluten free product everywhere thank you!!

Maxman Williams

Decent but pricey. It is what it is. Good set up, the people were nice.

ANDRES CATT

Great customer service and help they offered.

Jesica McDormand

I normally love these stores as they cater to my allergies... But tonight i had a bad experience. I had an Urn in my bag that i was carrying...and the lady at the cashier was incredibly rude and kept trying to get me to put my groceries in the bag..i told her multiple times i needed a seperate plastic bag and she did not listen and then after asking over and over she finally put ALL of my groceries into 1 bag so full that there was no way of me even getting it out of the store without it breaking..i had to ask again just to get it double bagged.. You made a bad night so much worse with your assumptions and not being willing to listen to your customers.

Tania Carter

there was an East Asian girl at 4:30 pm saturday october 19th and she rudely rolled her eyes when i said that there was no pen for the bulk food item that she had tdold me had no number on it. She then left to find the item. She came back and I had another bulk item which she said had no number. I told her again, there was no pen. I am going to whole foods from now on. I have spent thousands of dollars there over the last 3 years. If she doesn’t like her job or Native people or women, she she be a ditch digger. There are no people she has to serve there besides a boss.

Tazmin Shariff

I love this store! They carry some of the hard to find brands like nirvana coconut water. Today I needed some health products and discussed my health issues with Mio. She was knowledgeable and helpful, guiding me towards products that could help. Ty Mio!

With mandatory masks for all public indoor spaces in place in BC at this time, this grocery store doesn’t seem to enforce it whatsoever. Told by the clerk that she can’t “make “ anyone wear a mask. Obviously staff not taking the pandemic or rise in Covid 19 cases seriously likely because of poor management and poor information about personal risk. Clerks should be advocating for themselves as they are front line workers. As well the enforcement needs to come directly from management and protocols in place. Will be reporting this grocery store and also never shopping here again.

JG

Friendly staff, amazing selection of natural and local products and there’s never a line at the cashier. Some branded items are priced much higher than at other stores (e.g. Gardein, non-dairy milk, house brand bread). Usually the sale price is closer to the expected price. For other items, I find the prices on par with other stores for premium natural options. Competing stores are WholeFoods, Thrifty, Strongs. Don’t expect the prices to compete with Walmart or Superstore.

Ann Whalen

Beautiful place to shop. Good parking.

Rob

Twice now I have suggested to a manager that it would be nice if they had a magnifying glass in the isles to help customers read the annoying tiny print for the ingredients and nutrients on product labels since customers who shop specialty/health stores tend to read the labels more than most. Both times they agreed it was a great idea and said they would do it! The second time the manager apologized it still wasn't done and would get magnifying glasses in the isles right away. Months later now its still not done. So much for the specialty customer service you pay more for in in a specialty store.

Veronica Vespa

Watch the dates on the products! be careful... since this is a fairly new store the turnover of products isn't very high. Almost every second item I picked up was expired or near expiration. The produce is hit and miss, some days it is good others it is terribly off. Shame since they offer quite a good selection of product.

Terri A

All of the delicious organic things live here! And yummy vegan treats you can't get anywhere else. There's kombucha on tap. Good bulk section, and deli. And, it's a local chain!

Eilleen V

It isn't the largest store but still manages to have a really great variety of items, a decent salad bar and good selection of ready to go meals/sides. This location in particular has awesome staff that are very friendly, knowledgeable and go out of their way to be helpful. It doesn't get as crazy busy as the other nearby grocery stores and is a great for stress-free shopping trips. :P

K R

Great selection of local organic produce and other organic goods. Very good selection of high quality supplements.

George Johnston

Good food

Namaste Trading

I’ve got to say this is an amazing store with wonderful staff. I swung by today to grab a quick bite for lunch and the gentlemen behind the deli counter went over and above to prepare my lunch perfectly. All their product assortment offer healthy choices and locally sourced product. I highly recommend you take the time to check out this locally owned store, you’ll be glad you dropped in. Thanks for the great service and the friendly attitude.

Eric Westra

Good take away section and helpful staff. Always like Choices. Their vitamin and personal care section also good!

Madison Thomson

Always tidy, well organized and has a variety if other options most super markets do not have. Highly recommended especially for natural beauty products, oils or supplements

Ryan Zurbrigg

Tried this grocer out to find most of the produce was near rotten and the their limited selection very over priced. The staff was nice but that is not enough of a reason to gamble on such poor quality groceries.

Lynna Brown

Friendly, fun ???? & healthy "choices"???? But pleeezz...get a freezer for ????????????Dept.

Rick C

I like this shop. Lots of good healthy stuff.

N Lenzen

Great variety of products you may not find elsewhere including less mainstream produce, brands that are allergy sensitive (dairy soy ect free) and organic meat, produce ect. You'll pay for the quality and variety though. Staff were not the most helpful last time I was there, but overall it was good.

Karen Lee

Been coming here for years. Shelves are always stocked with new healthy items and staff are very friendly.

Gloria Scott

This is one of my favourite grocery stores to go to. Affordable practical. Well-managed great family experience every single time.

Vicki Brown

I'm so happy I found Choices.

Larry Glowacki

Your choice is always overpriced avoid if you want to save money

Vanda S

Not as large a selection as the store in Kitsilano, but pretty decent. Good place to find vegan options.????????

sebastien Brusilo

Always a pleasant experience, the sandwiches are great.

Heathir Naesgaard

I have shopped many times at the North Vancouver Choices and count on their excellent quality of food. They have a good selection and are helpful when asked for information or assistance. Highly recommend them.

D Dev

Friendly staff and clean store. Would be 5 stars of prices were more realistic. ~7 dollars for sriracha is absurd when most other stores are selling it for 5. Same with certain seaweed snacks that are being sold for literally twice the price of other stores that carry the same brand. Would have liked to spend more money but it's more worth it for me to go to the neighboring Thrifty's and get some of the same products for a couple dollars less. Adds up real quick. That being said they do have some stuff here and there reasonably priced such as frozen sweet potato fries

Kari-Lynn Kenny

I love shopping here. Super friendly and helpful staff. Good prices on organics and lots of member perks.

Corrie Diligenti

Love the selection of vegan choices, staff is so friendly and kind!

Francine pomeroy

With the amount of competition this store has in this area it REALLY needs to get on its game. I would rate the customer service in this store as a 1

Sylvie Wong

Cute little store with a good selection of products. I shopped here since it opened. However, I wish they focused more on organic and natural products. I also really wished they ensured that their meat and seafood was raised humanely and sustainably. As for their produce department it isn't really consistent but seems to be getting better. The displays are looking nicer and product quality is getting better.

p davies

Best food store on the North Shore . High quality products. Pleasant shopping experience.

Lisa Tasa

Hands down the best grocery store I have EVER shopped at. I do my weekly food shop here and am fully converted, driving past 2 other grocery stores to go to this one. The staff are helpful and friendly. I even see them joking around with each other (in a friendly way :) It's great to see the same faces so staff stick around, which is nice to see a familiar face. The manager there is awesome. So kind and down to earth. I get a bit overloaded at the big stores with all the crazy noise, lighting, and such...it's actually really chill in Choices even if it's a bit busier...and they play awesome music too haha. Bonus!

Michelle Donohoe

Great selection of keto friendly foods and snacks.
