Always great fruits and vegetables + great prices.

Meat quality is usually great. Especially pork products. Other sdepartments are a bit disappointing considering the mark up in prices. .

Michel-Rene Landry

Better produces than other stores around. Great prices.

Joanne Lapensee

Marianne

Matt Pigeon

The staff is great. The produce freshness is hit or miss.

Dominic Sanson

This is the first grocery store I have seen with a staff at the entrance directing patrons to answer covid related questions. She cleaned the buggy before I took it and requested that I sanitize my hands. Thank you food basics for your reasonable prices and your commitment to client/staff health during this pandemic!

Christian Moreau

Great prices and they have great produce!

Henri Gervais

I think it's the best place for your money, if you're grocery shopping

Jacques Carette

Cashier Victoria was excellent. Very pleased and cheerful. A little disappointed though in the new digital card system not being scanned due to out-of-date technology. Prices are relatively good, but can shop around for better. The store is clean, but organization makes it a little difficult to navigate, especially near the cash where space is a premium.

Justin Devine

They have alot of choices when it comes to produce and bakery more than Walmart which is my go-to place for groceries but their prices are a little higher than Walmart. I only go here when Walmart doesn't have what I'm looking for.

Jacques Denomme

A place for discounts and deals

Joy RC

Great prices, but you get what you pay for. Produce is not always the best, meat selection limited. Staff seem frustrated is you come with a full cart at check out. Some even trade when they see you coming!

Brenda Swarts

Good prices and only place you can find international selections of food

hb1337

Everything on my grocery list was there. Best of all someone on their staff helped me bag my groceries.

Bj “BjBnet” Binette

Nice store friendly staff. My only problem is the produce guys dont keep on top of things always find rotten fruit and veggies.

Joan Binda

Good prices

Rima “Farfalle” Sbih

Go there often to purchase our groceries, more than on one occasion had to use the washroom & I must say it hasn't been very clean.

Danick Lafleur

Great deals on fruits.

Tim Kravitz

Clean and organized store. Friendly staff, fresh goods.

Stéphane Matteau

Fabien Charbonneau

Always a great experience.

Michel St Andre

Great workers, and amazing fresh food!

Alain Johnson

(Translated) No respect for the number of people entering the store. Staff do not respect social distancing from customers. People were sneezing in the store. Many achalendas and customers do not wear masks. (Original) Aucun respect du nombre de personnes qui entrent dans le magasin. Le personnel ne respectent pas la distanciation sociale envers les clients. Des gens éternuaient dans le magasin. Beaucoup achalendé et les clients ne portent pas de masque.

Adam Foley

Plenty of parking competitive prices and brightly lit store. Produce is good and ample , handicap parking is good when the really handicap persons use it. Access for handicap persons is very good. Meat dept , we have had good service here and choice cuts of meat were very good. Good job food basics

rich laporte

Found some good deals

Curtis Shaw

Verry good

Anne Beauchamp

I really like this because the prices are lower than the usual grocery stores. We only have 32 grocery stores so a less exp 1 is very important. Service is good, never too busy and always parking close to store avaible.

Lore Eliza

Great prices

Nadia Cheff

Value for money items and you will find almost everything you need.

Wendy Hart

plain

Eric Senechal

Nothing wrong .Only, I highly recommend!! purchasing meats from ,Metro or Costco. A quick stop ,easy access,lots of parking and Canadian tire with gas bar.

Karine Lalonde

Prices are good but staff could use some customer service training. Also specials sellout fast and the staff doesn't make efforts to accommodate you. They also don't do price checking like the competition does in the area.

Clint Renaud

Friendly staff. Always helpful

Natalie P.

Good prices, more and more organic products as well

Mario Gregoire

(Translated) Very good price and good variety of products. This is my favorite store. (Original) Très bon prix et bonne variété de produits. C’est mon magasin préféré.

Al

Always have what I want at a great price for can goods and cleaning supplies They have lots of different stuff in the Oriental aisle ...spices and treats and sweets I've never seen or tried so enjoy the finds

Christa Amyot

Employee past another employee at cash while customer still waiting in line. Was quit upset i was still at cash packing my order

Trevor Jelly

Don't be in a hurry when you shop here in the morning! No fast checkout lanes here, get in line with all the shoppers even if you have 3 items, 15 min wait time.

richard labelle

(Translated) Very bad experience. The employees refuse to wear masks according to the manager according to the conversation I had with him this morning. He replied that it was not mandated and although he provided the masks and visors to his employees, they refused to wear them. You have to believe that the health of their customers is not a priority until they are mandated so "forced" to do so, they will continue to put their customers at risk. Nice example of thanks for the people of Rockland who have supported them for years. (Original) Très mauvaise expérience. Les employés refusent de porter des masques selon le gérant d'après la conversation que j'ai eu avec lui ce matin. Il m'a répondu que ce n'était pas mandaté et bien qu'il fournisse les masques et visières à ses employés, ceux ci refusent de les porter. Il faut croire que la santé de leurs clients n'est pas une priorité tant qu'ils ne seront pas mandaté donc "forcé "de le faire, ils continueront de mettre leur clients à risque. Bel exemple de remerciement pour les gens de Rockland qui les supportent depuis des années.

Tab Martel

I like the section of spices that they offer. But i couldnt find any Vanilla in the baking section!

Siobhan Lint

Store is well organized and clean. We shop this location often and are always pleased with the variety of products.

Jana Sedivy

Found everything I was looking for. Close parking available. Short line-ups at the cash

Julien Lalonde

I'm the store manager

Sonia Lefebvre

Clean store, friendly staff. On this visit, tomatoes were not at their best, this is rare

Cheryan Glasgow

I understand that stores need to limit the number of items per customer under the current circumstances, but please explain to me how i'm supposed to feed three children with just 2 apples? If you're going to put a limit on the number of apples, don't advertise them at $0.88 a pound. We could have just saved the gas and the time and bought apples while we were in Walmart.

dave_bed

The staff at this location is outstanding.

Matt Lamarre

Like this store but the problem is when I was there today 4 cash registers open and about 12 to 15 in line at one point there was only 3 registers open. At end of month when its pension time they should realize this and have more staff working in the morning.

Ron Brooks

Good prices !

Robert Gagnon

Love your store. Great prices

Deb Verhelst

veilleux mario

Ben Deeke

They should add self checkout like every other grocery store in the area, it would make the line up go faster. Friendly staff, most of them bilingual.

Anthony Whittaker

Has all the things you need.

Kim Yates

Always more organized and better stocked than the one in Orleans on Innes.

Michelle Reynolds

Awesome store. Very clean and bright.

joyful rubixs

My favorite

Loki Gui

Always a great place to do your shopping.

SAM Moursy

Air conditioning is fantastic here

Peter Murphy

God deals very basic

Anibal C

It's OK. Loved it better when the prices were some of the lowest. Now it's no different than anyone else

Nicole St Andre

This place is perfect for a local grocery trip. It has all the things you would need. Eggs, bread, those Joe Louis things my mom would put in my school lunch bag but now when I ask my wife to buy them she says no and so I sometimes drive here and buy them and eat them in the parking lot and cry.... wait.... this seems a bit off topic. I only give 4 stars because its not as clean as I'd like my food place to be. Also, I'd avoid the big 50% off stickers on the greying meat. Lovely staff. Always plesant.

Helene Bertrand

Close to my home and very good product and price

Loghan 95

(Translated) I love to do my groceries but not always the special he has more empty tablecloth not filled must go to Orleans to have special cashier not happy an open crate we must wait for big wire waiting (Original) J'adore faire mes épicerie la mais pas toujours les spécial il en a plus tabler vide pas rempli doit aller à Orléans pour avoir spécial caissiere pas joyeux une caisse ouvert on doit attendre grande fil d'attente

David Roffey

Located in the highway, easy access. Lots of parking and plenty of carts. Clean and recently underwent renovations. It loses a star because the produce division actually had a better layout before. Manager here is super, almost always on the floor right alongside employees. Staff is typically friendly, with the exception of a few. There are some fantastic deals, on a daily basis. #localguide

suzanne lavictoire

Clean, most of the employees are friendly

Julie Tremblay

Good prices

Laila

Organized, most of the fresh food is well looked after, however some staff could use a reminder that customer service includes smiling ????

Adora Randle

It was ok

Denis Murphy

Nice banquet facility

Greg Paul Mault

Great produce. Has come a long way over the last few years.

Pierre Legault

Great selection of fruits and vegetables, but you will have to go someplace else for your meat unless you are a vegetarian. Their meat department needs a lot of work, one word "awful" .

Gerard Levesque (Psywrenade)

Aren't being as careful as they should. For what I need, the stock was limited to none at all. And they never have enough cashiers at peak times.

Mireille Groleau

(Translated) Travis good price (Original) Travis bon prix

Terry Sibley

One of the best grocery stores in Rockland to shop courteous and good quality food

Mat S

Does the job for 95% of what I would want, but occasionally have to go to the bigger-brand stores for some items, especially anything "fresh". The line-ups at the cash were always bad before, but are exceptionally bad these days with their "one line-up for all" that snakes 1/2 way around the perimeter of the store sometimes.

Gilles Lalonde

(Translated) Very good price. (Original) Très bon prix.

V Luong

Prices are good and always have what I'm looking for.

Lina Lachance

Great prices.

Chantal Sabourin

Good prices but the staff is sub par

Michael Levac

Clean, well laid out. Lots of fresh produce. Ok prices. Generally have what I need. Lots of parking.

Patrick Roy

Great price on boxed and caned things but some meat and veggies are not the best quality

Neville Feltham

Good produce at this location

Roland Masson

Cheep

Tri Tran

Always good

Ken Allard

Refused to honor scanning code of practice, manager didn't care. He blamed covid and said they no longer honored it. I caught multiple errors on my bill, but went after just 1 and was told to sod off. I then showed them that they still had the signs posted promenantly that they honored the code. Again no f's given. So I won't shop there anymore. It's been a year... Take down the signs if it's not store policy anymore.

Julie Marion

When I was leaving the parking lot today. A worker with a snowblower was shooting snow and rocks at my car. Also on the receipt I have a code for a possibility to win free groceries, but it's not easy to find out where to do it.

Michaela Scriver

Decent produce. Specials are pretty good. Mostly have sale items in stock.

Suzanne Periard

Great selection. Competitive prices. Well worth a visit to do food shopping.

Alan Lawrie

Clean great selections.

martin gervais

You get what you pay for....less expensive for less quality......

Ash !

Clean store. Offers decent selection of grocery and household items. My only pet peeve is that sale tags seem to disappear before the sale ends, making shopping a little frustrating when you're hunting down a deal. I also find that sale tags go on the wrong items sometimes, which can also lead to some frustration at the cash. For example, a 10-pack of Ziploc bags may be on sale, but they put the tag on the 20-pack instead. Would also love to see more vegan and plant-based items.

carol deault

Good service

Laurier Brunet

Do groceries there every week

Denis Lalonde

Still basic

Dalton Maitland

They always seem to have things the others don't which makes you want to go back. Prices are fairly competitive and it's right off the main road. Easy to get to and looks much bigger from the inside. I've had no issues with everything I've bought so far.

Blank300 Dayday

You've been to one Food Basics, you've been to them all. This is exactly what you expect from a Food Basics. It's... basic food, at reasonable prices. Enjoy.

Yerif Daboud

Super clean grocery store and cheap chicken too

Nice to go

sylvie bruyere

I love this grocery store! It's almost "European"It has an amazing selection of foods that you never knew you needed. The prices are great, the quality is great and the staff is always friendly!

Sherry Beaudry

I was so impressed they still had cart cleaner they had hand sanitizer when we walk in to shop the line ups for the cash registers where still in place with someone controling what cash to go I think a few big stores needs to look at what they are doing I'll name a few Independent grocers All Dollarama ,Walmarts their protocol are slim to none ....Food basic Rockland you guys were bang on for customer safety thank you

Andre Lab

Good prices and friendly helpful staff.

Danielle Digiovine

Great place good food.and.service

Erin Thomas

Big large variety

Erin Tartre

Every ataff member acts as if you are in their way or a burden. Always cutting you off, or reaching in front of you. You can get a couple bags of food for the price of one bag of food elsewhere so there is good prices and deals, but very limited selection. They normally pack the store as full as they can making it very uncomfortable to move around.

Orville Nattie

Good deals!

pj

You know I always find some great deals at basics

Paul LaSalle

Good selection find Mondays and Tuesdays aren't as busy.

Frank McMurran

Very good selection of food. Currently line ups are regularly very long. They did move fairly efficiently the 4 times I was there.

Stephane Lortie

low product levels

Dome D Dome D

Very open and clean grocery store with helpful and knowledgeable staff that you can ask the location of most products. Fruits and vegetables are fresh and look good. Products are well organized in rows to prevent confusion. There are also boards that give information on what is in each row. Overall a great store with helpful staff and quality food. Paying is quick and easy. Highly recommend. Ps. There is plenty of parking space which is rarely full allowing you to part your vehicle reasonably nearby.

Kim Pollock

There wasn't much product on the shelves!!!

Nathasha Proulx

Just the great service and since we moved to the Platagent area on Concession 3north rd we purchase 3 times a week thanks

It has everything you might need for a large variety of food types.

The staff is practically always friendly and helpful and the prices are awesome.

Damon Inlow

I could not find any chicken thighs that was on sale that started today and it was only 2:00 p.m. It took me twenty minutes to find someone that work in that department and waited another ten minutes to be told that they were out. Not impressed especially that it is the first day of the sale.
