Saei Ranjbar

A good Persian store in North Vancouver

Elie Loosen

Best buy.

Gaming Lab

Updated: I visited this place for the first time after a year. I gave them 3 stars last time for their unfriendly staff. Changed it to 1 star now because they are even worse. Cashiers still think they are princesses or something. Rude, unfriendly, with a terrible attitude. Review from last year: Best in North Vancouver, or at least the best I've been to. Tell your staff to smile, that's their job!

Masoud Namini

Low prices with acceptable quality

Al Gh

Persian supplies. They got everything. The price in their produce is unbelievable!!! Lettuce and Kale that are sold $3-4 in other stores are just $1.5!!! Parsley’s are 50cents a bunch. You can’t find these prices anywhere else.

Kamran Armin

It's perfect for persian community and you can find many things more than the same size store.

Nice place in North shore to find Persian food ingredients, Fresh vegetables. When it comes to the products in bottles or cans, they never carry the same brand for more than a week.

Emily Schutten

reza noroozi

Delicious

Sir Sam Smith

It's one of the best persian super markets. They have whatever you need specially to make a Persian dish. But, the costumer service needs a bit more work on it. You can't find one on the floor or one be able to help you properly or professional. But, in general I really like this store compare to Persia Foods Market.

Saeideh He

I ordered “Gohrmeh Sabzi” with rice for dinner. It was exactly like Persian foods with high quality beef and rice. The staff was friendly and polite. Highly recommended :)

Jeff Peng

Not that what I expected as a Persian grocery store. I was looking for cream (khame) and sangak and they didn't have any of them. Don't know about Deli though.

Maryam R

Vanak market sells fruits, meat and other grocery products. Their speciality is Iranian/Persian groceries which includes vast range of products and spices. The place itself is clean and in order. Products are high quality. يكي از بهترين و تميزترين سوپر ماركت ايراني در خيابان لانزدل.

Good

Dariush Malekirad

Nice and clean persian superstore. It also has warm food deli.

Marzie K

Good price and products

Thomas Robinson

They usually have good prices but sometimes food quality is low. Staff & other customers have little regard for COVID-19 protocols (ie mask wearing & distancing).

jason allen

Great little deli that has hot pre-made Iranian food. The lubia Polo with lamb shank was excellent and a great value at $12. The carafes was juicy. The gormeh Sabzi did not have limu omani and the kidney beans were not fully cooked. But otherwise everything was excellent and they were very generous with the rice.

I may be not getting it right but I noticed that ALL customers should be treated equally. That's all I have to say about that.

Amin Seifoori

It was full of iran memorials

Armin Gamer

The blonde woman at the checkout was extremely aggressive toward me and my sister, when it was time for me to pay I pulled my debit card out of my pocket and was about to say "by debit please" before she interrupted me and said: "BEZAN" in a very nasty tone. (which means "tap" btw) she handed me the receipt, and didnt even say thank you. ._. On second thought i should have confronted her about her attitude.. Oh well, let's hope she learned something from reading all of this.

It used to be one of my favourite stores as I go do my grocery. I was surprised today with their new teenager worker! Very rude, didn’t say hi and was throwing my groceries around while scanning! I had to say “excuse me! Please don’t throw my groceries like that” obviously no answer! I was so surprised!

DO NOT SHOP AT THIS PLACE. Staff are always grumpy and rude. Bought some pita bread just to find out a few weeks later that two of the 7 bags have been contaminated with mouse. Hole in the bag and signs of the bread eaten plus mouse dropping in the bag. I have pictures to prove if anyone is interested.

Omid Ghorbani

Great, Iranian store

Alex Johnston

Where do i start. If i could give this place a _ -0 i would. Worst store ever. Me and wife went in there to buy yogurt. The price for yhe yogurt said 3.49 and whem we came to buy it they told us its 6.99. I even showed them the price tag and they said they made a mistake. Very disrespectful people. They would not give it to us for 3.49 even though they had priced tag of 3.49 on it.

A nice shop

Amirreza Teimour Zadeh

Vanak market is one of the best Persian stores and their service is very good. They follow covid-19 protocols very well and their customer service is very friendly. The store is very clean. They have a very large selection of Persian and non Persian products. I as a Google Maps local guid recommend this place.

Angela Geib

Good selection.

Shahpar Mohtadi

Poor choice of produce.

Antonia Issa

Great quality produce and meat for cheap. Also all the spices and lentils one could need!

Hessam Dehqani

No social distancing whatsoever. No hygiene whatsoever. It is scary. But a trip to Vanak is also a trip to the Iran of 60s and 70s. It is so nostolgic.

rivan hoshiar

It's so helpful for getting what you need

Eric Thur

Great prices and friendly staff!

E Friday

Really cheap produce, and great flatbreads. Make sure you get produce thats been in the shade, or come early as it sits in the sun all day sometimes. Usually very busy.

Maria Dool

Great shop great prices specially for fruit veggies, good meats as well sometimes marinaded. Great yogurt with herbs or plain and fetta available. Wonderfully nice staff and they even have hot food sometimes.

Darrin Moench

Cheap super fresh produce. It's where I buy most of my produce. If its not there, its probably not in season, simple as that.

seyed amir mousavi

Nice Super market. Friendly and helpful.

I would highly recommend Vanak Market and Deli. They have great produce and a wonderful selection. I had a problem with my bill and Mahnoush treated me with respect. I only wish they were closer to where I live.

The meat and chicken always has today's date on it, even at night before they close, yet the next morning all the meats will have new date as well. I dont think they throw everything that is one day old. It looks discolored anyways so i wont buy their meat. The owner has some explaining to do.

Lianne Wang
