Best items. Good price.
Excellent deli. Pizza and soup, fantastic!
Great selection of specialty goods & day to day items. The floral department always has a beautiful choice of fresh & live flowers & plants, and of course they make a great matcha latte at the coffee corner! ????☕
Great selection! We also tried the sirloin steak wrapped in bacon with potatoes and sweet potatoes and it was delicious. The steak was so tender!
Great selection!
Had my groceries delivered today by such a nice delivery man~ The ordering process was straight forward and the selection was convenient. The delivery process was so great! They arrived the day they said they would and dropped off my items right at the front door. 5 stars from me!
I liked it . Nice people, quality products.
Love the selection and the super friendly and helpful staff!
Yes
Nice people there. There always available to help you out.
Great store...Gary has the best meats
Great grocery store. We're thrilled to have another option for shopping with quality items on the North Shore.
Great place for a quick lunch.
Nice store. Very nice staff.
Great sandwiches!
Love their corned beef!
Love the store and the atmosphere! Sorry to see that their location is closing soon to re locate. I love the community vibe! I can't wait for the new location to open. Thanks to the lovely staff for their years of dedication to the community!!
Has alittle bit of everything, fully cooked meals including pizza!
Stongs Market has EVERYTHING! LITERALLY! Fresh ingredients, exotic ingredients, premade meals, a coffee bar, deli, butcher, bakery... Everything.
Lots of vegan goodies that are clearly identified as such. If only all stores did this. Some things are more expensive than other stores though which is a shame.
Clean store, fiendly, helpful staff, great products
Nice new grocery store with all your daily needs
Great grocery store. Has a little bit of everything for everyone. Their meat selection has lots of different choices of cuts of beef. Their butcher will also custom cut you something - just ask. Great cannoli's too from their bakery too. They fresh fill them for you.
I received flowers from my friend on my birthday and they were beautiful and she bought them at Stongs! I have been in now three times and bought flowers they are amazing and I have been telling everyone to go and buy flowers from Stongs they are lovely-the people who work in the flower section some of them are florists and it really makes a difference-definitely a "cut above" the other grocery stores and the level of a flower shop. The cut flowers last close to two weeks.
Nice store ????
I have shopped at Stongs since way back in 2000-----my daughter was wee----now she is 20!! I love the staff, the cleanliness, the way every product especially the meat, deli and produce department does everything with such INTEGRITY...you can turst the rpoducts..and they help you if something isn't in....I have had many laughs, and warm conversations over the years-so THANK YOU!! I live in North Vancouver-however I still shop at the Dunbar Stongs!!! the meat department as far as I am concerned is one of the BEST in this entire city......all areas...and the deli..is awesome...the BBQ chickens...I would fly in from another country to pick them up!!!! You are all amazing! and my daughter grew up in your store-now that she is econd year Broadcast and media...she should do a film on your store!!! and the making of The New Stongs In NV....All the best to you!!!
Seems a bit expensive.
Local grocery store with great employees. Produce is fresh, many baked goods made in-store, and the store is clean and organized. We shop there frequently.
Grocery store with fresh veggies, meat, fish, dairy, in store bakery, deli with service, as well as can and packaged goods. Locally owned. Friendly staff. Reward points system.
Perfect local grocery store.
My favorite grocery stores. Unique items and everyday products available
High quality ingredients and great staff. The prices aren't the cheapest but the quality makes up for it.
Nice shopping experience. Family owned and run. They are open to input on what to bring in. Wish there was an iron for less packaging in the meat dept (or paper wrapped).
Nice and clean...
Small grocery store good selection.
good ready to eat hot food nice place
Neighborhood favorite. The deli is great and given the size of the place, they really do have an outstanding selection. Their online delivery is well run and efficient.
Gorgeous florists with impeccable taste.
Great grocery store. Lots of local products. Family owned. We love going shopping there.
Some nice items but unfortunately just too costly to justify shoping here. Canadian superstore down the road is much better bang for buck.
Quite expensive but great choices and friendly staff. Basically a Choices / IGA / Safeway clone. I found the pizza very tasty.
Amazing selection of local brands. Stings is my favorite grocery store on the North Shore
Quick and easy.
Very good store and a good price for the great product and David
Always super friendly and helpful staff!
Not busy, clean safe shopping spot
Great little/big grocery store
They have really good vegan, gluten free and other alternative food options ????
Great place to shop
Awesome go-to for delicious food.
I've visited twice and must say I'm impressed. I bought a spinach, goat cheese and mushroom pizza that was fantastic. My parents wanted me to grab some naan, Heyder was nice enough to show me where it was and even gave me reccomendations on the second visit, lastly, their Éclairs are very European and well made. I actually think the quality of food is better than Whole Food's, and reasonably priced for the quality I bought.
I found what I wanted: organic pop, avacado oil, and Tenderflake.
I hadn't been to Stong's in a long time and so it was good to visit. They have products that can't be found in other shops so that's good. Good customer service too.
It is so wonderful to have Stong's in our neighbourhood, I have found this new location to be very clean, the staff are so friendly , knowledgable and go out of their way to help . The pizza is delicious we have stopped ordering from panago which is next door now! the organics selection could still be improved upon but they do carry some harder to find items , I would however like to see some truffle salt become available :) overall this is a really great addition to the district and look forward to my shops there !
nice options similar to Thrifty's
A great addition to the North Shore! Friendly staff, quality produce and a decent selection of organics. Definitely worth frequenting!
Great selection and staff
Awesome place to shop!
Okay supermarket. Friendly staff. Great bakery.
Great food options, nice staff and a well kept store!
Thought it was great. Perfect size, great selection and well priced. Friendly staff and solid service. Will be coming back regularly.
Horrible experience. I went to buy flowers and the ladies were rude, they wouldn’t look at me when speaking.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Great deli and fresh made food options.
Good products at a little pricey point
Good n friendly
Delicious deli!
This is a lovely place to shop! There is a really interesting selection of products to buy and wonderful specialty items. The flower and gift department is awesome! I love the take home pizza’s. The egg salad sandwiches from the deli are the next best thing other than having my Mom’s...and she makes the best! The bakery is delightful with a ton of delicious offerings. The staff are all very friendly and helpful! I always have a pleasant experience here.
Cori’s deli meats, roast chickens, and marinated fresh meats are amazing. Fresh fish is the freshest East of the bridge. Customer service is the best. The floral department is the best. The potted plants are the freshest.
Great selection and staff
Nice market with with good produce and all then fixens including a smoothie bar. Slightly expensive but better then nesters.
Convenient with some good premium product choices. Some of the prices are a bit steep, but some of their sale prices really make up for it.
Great little supermarket with a quaint and comfort-oriented vibe. Good selection of well maintained fruit and vegetables, including offerings from local farmers, which I love to support. Very active in the community with a strong focus on family driven events.
Very nice and helpful staff but pricing here is way out of control. If you need a couple fast things make the stop sure but at these prices you are better off driving to whole foods!
This is definitely a convenient shop BUT prices are high, deli counter not so fresh. Great sandwich bar and friendly staff.
Nice store , great service
Pizzas, paninis, hot foods made to order. Seating area available. Clean and organized.
Always great selection and friendly staff!!
The maui ribs on bbq yum
Nice, clean, but not cheap.
Easy shopping not too bad line ups.
Just like you remembered it as a child but all grown up.
Great service and selection
Nice place lots of products but it was sad when I bought Ceasar dressing and it was green mold inside now thinking if they keep it refrigerated all the time - o well it happens sometimes
My favorite grocery store.
Way too expensive! I put everything away and went to a different grocery store.
The bakery is so fresh and lovely , the in-house bread is quite delicious compared to superstore and such. Always fresh ingredients
Mid-size store with basic goods and some specialty items. They have a florist, bakery, deli and hot food selection. There is an attached cafe, but it is not operating at the moment.
Great selection of natural foods and products. Prices are a little high, but I usually expect that for well made natural and local products. Great bakery and deli too.
Firstly I really liked Olga. When I walked in she helped me with all my ceasar salad needs. They have high quality groceries and local produce. Quite overpriced but thats the only strike.
Many thanks to Stong Market Express delivery service. It was first time for us to have their delivery service. We are pleased for their excellent service. We received the goods that we ordered. Every item was of good quality. Driver was very friendly and came on time. As seniors (we are in 80 – and 80+) we were not good for on line shopping. Mr. Tyler, who is in charge of delivery service, was very friendly accepting the order by phone and email. It is very convenient to seniors especially during this pandemic time. We will continue to have our daily grocery shopping with Stong Express Delivery service.
Nice market with good healthy selection. A but on the pricey side but within range for the area it's located.
Love this market. Great selection of poultry and meats from local farms raised without antibiotics or hormones.
got food poisoning from chicken salad sandwich... looks nice inside though.
I love the selection of food, deli salads, that they carry most of which is very reasonably priced. I’ve also been very pleased with their delivery services. They really go above and beyond if you’re not completely satisfied.
Great atmosphere, very bright clean with good quality food. The staff are also very helpful. The only reason I gave a 4 star is certain products can be way overpriced. I do believe they will have to implement some new strategies in order to maintain a competitive advantage or else will get crushed by amazon.
Nice little neighbourhood grocery story. A little on the pricier side but the staff is exceptional. Alwaya very friendly, helpful and always smiling. Short line to get in to the store today, young lady at the entrance was handing out bottled water. Nice touch as it was very hot today so thank you for that!
Too bad it's closed. Come back soon!!
Love the deli meats but the Persian staff serving at night has a real bad attitude.
Didn't sell redbull, and everything is too expensive.
Well it's not for the third class citizen, more for the rich but all and all terrific food and customer service.
Super clean and had a great selection
Staff were friendly and helpful , prices on the high side ...
It's a really nice store with caring and respectful employees.
Great deli, delicious pizza/bbq chicken, and the prices are very comparable to the other stores in the area. Wish they had a reward program though.
Good store. Has everything you need. A bit pricy. Must try the stuffed baked potatoes
Was a great store but at the crash register was rushed by the next customer
Fantastic layout. Customer service is outstanding! Seems like the staff actually likes being there. And the selection & prices of organic & natural foods is becoming so good this is starting to be my goto store.
Great smaller supermarket with all the essentials that you need. The best is that its easily navigatable and perfect for a fast efficient shopping visit. Good meats and produce, great selection of pastries and cheese and a cute coffee shop, Replenish, within the store with seating if you want to take a breather during your busy day or want to hook up with a friend. I love the tuna sandwiches that are ready to go....perfect quick lunch!
Nice variety of offerings compared to other local markets.
This is the first time at the new store location. Wow, very well laid out, and being so close to The Real Canadian Super Store, their prices are competive. I find it way easier to shop here than the "big stores" were you need a GPS tracker to find your car, and forgot that item in isle 34(d) a football field away! Lol. You get what I mean.
Prices are a bit too boutique. Friendly and helpful staff. The ice cream all looks over frozen, may want to adjust the temp? Otherwise produce looks fresh and there’s an abundance of selection, maybe too much but at least there are a lot of local options.
Great medium size store, conveniently located and overing a wide rage of more and more locally made products. Like their homy feel.
Nice shop with very busy staff. All is average “ok” but… I tried several times to order a salad from the salad bar. Every single time it’s a problem. There is always a big group of people behind the salad bar, that should reassure you that you will be served quickly and can get on with your lunch….well no, that’s not case here. Why? Who knows, I always order Greek salad and I always get it without the feta cheese (main component of the salad) - when I ask the staff to include the feta cheese I’m being spoken down to….”it’s all mixed” “ you can’t pick what you want” - I thought that was the reason of a salad bar …that you can choose the salad you like :O it’s just very AKWARD service here. Spoke to the “manager” several times, same rude staff same negative comments. All products are higher prices comparing to Safeway or save on foods. At least there you don’t have to stress out to get lunch..so disappointing. Have a look at the “Greek salad” according to Stongs. Feta equals gold here (####)
They have great locally sourced / organic groceries. Most of it is very pricey but the lack of competition in the area means it remains a mainstay. Biscuits often have good sales, as do baked goods late night.The meat is higher quality than most massive foodstores and is worth the price increase.
Big fan of the store! Manager Mr Fowler is great, staff are warm and friendly
We love this supermarker: Friendly and helpful staff, good variety of foods.
Pricey but good variety.
Ordered some food from deli and it was packed horribly and half prepared (some samosas microwaved and thrown into a plastic bag ) it was a pretty nasty sight to uncover an oily bag, two Samoas smooshed together..the training for the staff seems to be a bit sparatic. Always receive things packed differently and usually not well.. falling apart, unappetizing.
Terrific deli. Will make a detour to stop there for lunch.
Great supermarket. Lots of local products and variety. Prices are generally competitive and the service is consistently very good. Happy to have moved from shopping at Superstore to here.
Nothing compares to the feel of a local grocery! You can just feel the good vibes at Stongs with staff liking their jobs rubbing off on me. While aisles are a tad narrow and require manners and passing skills, the product variety is excellent, produce area is large and I saw at least 3 eco Friendly/ natural products( i bought JackN Jill Kids toothpaste) in dog poo bags and candy section at the till.Stongs is thinking about the environment and going to paper/natural bags. Parking is no problem so get over there and support local! Nice place.
So expensive everything! But good arrangement and tidy.
Nice market great change up from the usual. Grocery retailer offers a great selection. I definately would give my repeat business definately choose to shop here than the busy hustle of the superstore
Friendly staff, good selection. Had what I needed. I went fairly late so the store was fairly empty and checkout was quick.
The customer service here is second to none. I wish the produce section wa a little more robust we and we end up having to go do another Store. The butcher area is fantastic and I swear the steaks are second to none.
Grateful to have Stongs as our local grocery.
Everything is soooooo delish ???? pricey but worth it.
Staff offered to help me before I had to ask. Great selection of unusual foods.
If you're after quality, Stong's is your go-to place. Great store, great selection.
Quite expensive
Can't beat the price & quality of the prepared food area. Have been a few times now for lunch and get something different every time.
Helpful staff, beautiful store, great selection of Vegan items and ready to go foods. Premium pricing.
Great place. Friendly helpful staff, and a convenient layout. Amazing selection of local products, as well as a ton of house made ready to go meals..
Rude staff
First time I ordered online they said they "couldn't charge my credit card" but for some reason decided to not email me or inform me in any way. I had to call them on the day they were supposed to deliver to find out. Three days later I checked my card statement and they did in fact charge my card. So they took money from me and told me they didn't. After eventually getting my money back, I placed another order just to try them out. The substitutions they use are ridiculous. They will try to substitute your items with the most expensive versions. Originally I ordered 3kg of oranges for $2.40/kg. They substituted this with 1kg of oranges at $8.00/kg from another brand. Seriously?
holy cramped
Good selection of higher end stuff. Worth a visit. Deli good too.
Good selection of products, friendly staff and good location. I find the prices on the higher side unfortunately.
Great service, people friendly, some things a little expensive.
Great selection, coffee and flowers!
Always the best produce and vegetables
Phenomenal grocery store! The meat/seafood is good, but whoever is running the Produce department is doing a tremendous job!! Great quality and fresh at all times. Keep up the great work!
Superb selection of quality meats and cheeses, great selection of fresh produce, good selection of prepared foods, and an appealing variety of jams and teas -- to name but a few of Stong's pluses. They carry many natural and organic products too. I also appreciate the diversity of flora offered by the floral department. The store almost feels Whole Foodsesque, but instead of being a large impersonal chain, it's a family run local business. I love Stong's.
This is your price for cherries?!!...Whoever runs the produce department here needs to give their head a shake. Baffling.
(Translated) very well stocked (Original) Muy bien surtido
This is a really complete grocery with a large selection of excellent quality goods. You'll find unique gourmet items with deli, a great coffee bar, fresh pizza. You'll find vegan, keto and gluten-free food that a carnivore would eat. That staff are always so helpful and nice. Anytime I'm near Dollarton, this is my happy place.
nice and quick
AWESOME. They pack so much variety in a not so big space...Some items are higher, but generally great prices,and great selection
I love the store stongs but the manager of replenish, the cafe is rude and ignorant, it made me not want to shop at stongs anymore.
Great selection of food, especially when it comes to the hard-to-find stuff. Prices are a little high, though, especially on meats (but they are good quality).
Fabulous food store!! This place is truly a feast for the eyes, as well as your pallet! Their prepared food section is fantastic. I don't know what they do to their egg salad sandwiches, but they're out of this world! Soups? Exquisite! Salads? Fantastic! Their floral department is gorgeous!!
Best Bread selection. And Canoli King destroys all when it comes to desert. All in all its a great market.
A true west coast grocer anchored in a vibrant community.
Best grocery store in north van. They have a very good selection of organic and natural foods and the staff are so friendly. Coffee shop is great too :)
Nice organic food, a bit pricey. A must try is their dessert cannolis.
Great market good food selection
Great selection, a bit pricey for some items, reasonable for other items. Nice lunch foods for locals
I popped in here to pick up a few groceries while on the North Shore and was blown away by their thoughtful selection, friendly staff and cleanliness. Only a few blocks away is the crazy stress-inducing Superstore which I also occasionally visit—I will not go back now that I know there is a calm and sane alternative nearby. Well done, Stongs! I wish we had one in East Van! Does it cost more? Negligibly. But they offer some far superior quality product alternatives.
Pretending to be premium like Whole Foods, but more expensive and poor quality in every aspects. I'd rather drive 5-10mins to Whole Foods once a week.
Great staff
Ok great
Worst costumer service I’ve experience in Vancouver. Staff is super entitle, lots of attitude, no politeness or kindness. aspiring “future stars” about to be “discovered” I guess... there’s no warmth or welcome, like robots. Avoid if you can, superstore is close and At least staff will greet you and smile when they deal with you
Friendly helpful staff and wonderful food.
Sunday, Nov. 1st, I walked into Stong’s for the first time. First of all, the young lady at the coffee bar nicely directed me to the loo. I bought 2 small cups of medium roasted coffee, cheese scone & chocolate muffin which I shared with my daughter who was queuing at Arcteryx. We both agreed the coffee was really, really good. The cheese scone was deelish, the choc muffin , not so much. If I ever happen to come by this area I will most certainly buy the coffee beans/ grind of medium roasted coffee.
Fabulous
While working in the north end I frequented Stongs regularly. Great quality Deli & prepared foods, and an interesting selection of goods and sundries make this an ideal shop in this area.
Nice but expensive.
Great choice of foods and other groceries. A more higher end feel and quality of goods
Simple nice grocery shop. Try their fresh bread.
Good but expensive
Modern décor and exceptional customer service. Their employees provide an excellent and easy experience shopping for your goods or groceries. I highly recommend going to the Lukas's till if you're checking out. Very charismatic and understanding employee.
Bit pricey but they do carry lot of specialty products.
Last minute shopping guck and fast.
sareena is the best cashier. so helpful
I feel like I’m in heaven when I shop here:)
Super fancy, v nice people
Stong's has wonderful Staff! They also delivered to my house for only $7.99. Thanks Stong's, I will be back.
The stor is highly recommended. We are very happy to have a clean,great store with big variety. NO Superstore or Safeway!!!! nathan elharrar,YOU ARE ONE OF THOES PEOPLE THAT NEVER EVER EVER WILL FIND HAPPINESS IN YOUR LIFE "EVER".......... I checked 15 of your one star reviews That tells me everything about you "LOSER" !!!
Decent selection of vegan and organic foods - can't speak to the meat dept, avoid it for obvious reasons...The produce selection is good for a smaller store. Good selection of bread. Not a huge store, which is nice compared to those massive warehouse type stores. Very tidy and nice, friendly staff. Doing good COVID-19 protocols ie cleaning shopping carts and baskets, sanitizer available for customers. Have store card so you can collect points for future discount, similar to Choices Markets. Prices are high but that's pretty much the norm everywhere. Buying when they have specials helps. Plenty of free parking.
Nice deals
Free parking. Great/yummy baked goods. Good selection. Some unique Stong's own branded stuffs. A bit more expensive for same item elsewhere, even when on sales at Stong's.
Not the original store, but this market was in season 3 ep. 10 of macgyver.........you guys supported it, and it's grown.
Nice place, medium to big store
Consistently good for produce and great selection of food
Nice deli and bakery. More expensive than larger grocery chains
Yeah it's pretty good I guess.
A cross between save on and Whole Foods. Prices for baby products on the higher side. Plenty of parking and good wheelchair/stroller access.
Lots of parking, in a nice strip mall with lots of other small shops. Well organized and has lots of essentials. There lunch options are good and healthy.
Nice produce. Pricey but to be expected. Friendly staff. Consistently slow at the coffee stand. Coffee well priced though. Brought some under cooked food back. Received feedback well but no offer to compensate or remedy.
The sandwiches sold here are very good.Other supermarket sandwiches are soggy.I come here about 3 times per week to buy tuna or chicken sandwiches with soup and I am satisfied with the excellent service. thank you.
Pretty average. I don't think I would choose it over Superstore. For exceptional service I will shop at Whole Foods. Some people were really friendly, but the cashier when asked if they had a certain product said she didn't know, and didn't take the time to find out either. Not a very friendly cashier, but maybe that was an exception. To me, that's important - staff knowledge or willingness to find out, and genuine friendliness.
Fantastic delivery service Wow!!!! The online customer service is creative, incredibly thorough, and fun loving ????????☺️ 6 out of 5 stars.... I wish everyone had customer service like this. Very impressed
Came to Stong's for the first time and it was a very nice store lovey staff. Had an amazing cashier named Sareena help me and we had a great conversation and she had great customer service skills. Would definitely come back and shop here and hope to have Sareena help me out again.
Great place to shop. The meat department is definitely top shelf. They have quality meat and are happy to cut to your specifications. Very friendly staff. It's great to have them back on the North Shore.
Nice store !!! Good selection !!Nice and clean!°
Too fancy and elaborate. Difficult to get in and out .
Clean, lots of variety, fresh produce, both local and international cheese selection, and pretty good fish.
Always a great place.
Great place to shop, Friendly. helpful staff
Very friendly staff. Good quality meat and deli. Try their salads. Awsome.
Over priced and over hyped is the only way to describe this new Stongs. Bought fresh fish that wasn't even close to the quality and freshness of Thrifty's (another supermarket chain). At the suggestion of the person making their roasted organic chickens, I bought one on the way home ($15.90) only to discover one of the toughest, bland and most dry chickens I've ever had. The only thing we could do to salvage it, was to turn it into a bunch of chicken salad. When I returned to complain, I was told that their oven wasn't functioning properly, though that doesn't explain the lack of taste. My advice, plan ahead and shop at Costco or the brand name stores within a few Kms of this place and save some money. Save this place for emergencies if you live close by.
Good butcher.
Great receiving staff..
Great food great staff only place I shop for food since they opened. There aged steaks are probably best I've ever had
A store that really goes the extra mile to support local products & businesses. You can find interesting local products here that you will not find anywhere else. The team here is amazing as well. Very friendly and welcoming.
Very friendly and helpful staff, always clean and brightly lit inside. Their ready to eat dinners are mouth watering
