Reviews of Sobeys - Thickwood (Fish Shop)

Moose

Great place to get what you need here, always have a great selection of down East goodies

Ken Thebeau

My go to grocer, better prices than Michelle's the old timberlea superstore, staff are the best part in the till area, on floor staff and the meat and deli dept need more personality and service training. I've literally waited ten minutes and had to wave cucumbers at them. Get it dealt with management. Four stars because of this

Marsha Titus

Love the staff, good meat.

Gordon Bonenfant

Airmiles, reasonable pricing, meat dept on par with competition, friendly staff.

Ronald Cox

Ample parking. Good location. Getting into and out of the parking lot can be tricky. Sobeys has some of the best and weirdest sales in town. They'll decimate the cost of beef or pop or bacon as loss leaders to get you in the store. Take advantage of those sales, as you could save up to half from the next cheapest stores in town. Prices fluctuate like crazy here, both increasing and decreasing on certain items, so it's a good idea to check them out every once in a while and stock up on what's cheap. Also the selection of meats and deli foods is top notch. Best for grocery stores up town.

G. Ireland

Good place for vegetables. A bit pricey; however, I have had to trim something. Meats and cheese deli is also good.

Nancy George

Love the store, love the selection on fresh homemade food.

Mike Wenzel

They have food available for purchase

Craig Chambers

Not too bad, Abit higher prices but not by much

Howard Pike

Mid-sized store with limited shelf space and limited selection.

Marsha Felix

I like comming hear always friendly staff and they have stuff no one else has ????????

Mike Keeling

It's ok. Selection is limited.

Berts “Speakeasy” Garage

Best bread in town hands down. It's a smaller store so the selection isn't there but it's great for a pop in if you're short on a few basics. They never have enough tills open.

Matthew Cardinal

my favorite grocery store in McMurray, staff are wonderful

Joli Floyd

I'm starting to figure out why they never wear name tags hear.... You can't call them out if you don't know their name! Some of the cashiers here..... Wow!

angie gouthro

Got some great meat choices was helped by the butcher fast friendly service and store was well stocked with nice produce and clean looking store hand washing station not just sanitizer which I liked and used

Jason Hoskins

It's my regular, great service, good selection

Cody Monroe

Easy layout, good quality food, prefer the meat selection to other grocers

Deanne McRann

We went to the bakery and the lady tried to use her bare hands to put sprinkles on my child's bday cake. Is she trying to make everyone sick? Unprofessionalism at its FINEST

Michael Scott

Produce always fresh. Selection is good . Parking lot could use some better ergonomic

Jerome Tovillo

Good local grocery store in the area, has a good selection of fresh meats.

A.J.B oOOo

Use to have decent sales but now most times you have to buy 2 or more of a product to get the sale price. Not everyone wants to buy more then they need. It's annoying enough that I now shop elsewhere.

Sonia Chiasson

I love this store.Meats is the best quality of all grocery store.Good sales everyweek on different kind of meats.

King Nerd-Plug (icceplug5067)

Beautiful store but it feels a bit smaller than most and as such doesn’t offer as many products or sales

char

Well managed and fresh produce

Dariush Malekirad

This is becoming my favorite store as I live nearby. It is a typical Sobeys store. Clean and neat. Has a deli section. So many parking lots.

Emily Shek

Very fresh meat and fruits! Will come back!

Dan S

Sobeys tends to be a nicer shopping experience than Safeway in town since the layout is much more pleasing and organised. The lighting is good which makes it feel less like a department store and more friendly to walk through.

Budd Trottier

Great meat and always great selection for steaks...always tend to leave with a full cart due to sales

Parker Jackson

Simple layout, cheap prices, helpful staff, and great management staff.

Rob Meintzer

Great service and selection!

Gregory Grandy

High prices. No plastic bags, only the germ carrying ones they sell on the pretex of saving the world. Overall badly laid out store. Poor checkout lines. Straight out of a cramped mom and pop

FineThingsFermented

Best beer selection in town and the wine sampling station is a great idea.

Qdjcw Jiang

Good place.

Dan Budzynski

The staff at customer service are quite often abrupt or indifferent to the customer. On day in the past few weeks the staff was very abrupt. As I stepped forward with my order the first greeting I received was, " airmiles?". No hello or other greetings. This was followed by debit or credit? Yesterday when I was in the staff was indifferent. No greeting, busy talking on the phone trying to organize her upcoming break. This is the reason I rarely shop at Sobeys. This store is a 5 minute walk from my home. This is why I go to a different store. Your staff is in dire need of proper training.

Total Taekwondo

Our 'go to' store,love the bread

Kat

Bad experience tonight, was told there no cash tills were open, went to self check out then, airmiles wouldnt work, came to find out a cash till was opened after being told there was none, airmiles didn’t work there, went to customer service and had us waiting for over an hour and still didnt get it to work. Apparently the airmiles to redeem points hasnt worked for a few other people as well, they say its an airmiles problem but if it happened to multiple other people, so it clearly has to be a store/system problem. Been shopping here many years but this is my last visit here today unless something is done about your staff training and the way they greet/talk to people. Barely any tills open whenever we go in, only one was open in the entire store today, normally we don’t see any open at all. I see from other reviews from two years ago that barely any cash tills are open and its still happening today. What is this? Becoming a walmart and not wanting to pay your employees or something? Were shoppers there, not CASHIERS.

Alan Duffy

Clean and organized. Always friendly

Brian Harper

Fresh Baking and a well-stocked deli counter along with all the regular grocery basics.

Mark Ladouceur

They have the best grocery bags around.

Vaping Ruben

Nice store, good prices on Brisket when they are on special

nigel modeste

Veryhelpfull people there

Jason Fraser

Grocery shopping

shaun cormier

They usually have what you need for a smaller store and have unique stuff as well. Only thing I noticed is I find there beef is not that great.

Ralph Snell

No bags, yes there is a plastic bag ban but they didn't even have reusable bags for sale at check out. Dropped and left went to Save on where I could buy a bag for my stuff

Dina Mae

Have a fresh food and products. People are helpful and accommodating.

Kaylee Sullivan

Love this super market! Classy clean and full of different varieties and cultures of all kinds!!! Love the atmosphere and what they have to offer !!!!!! Would totally reccomend for family shopping

Paul Smith

Never any cashiers available, forced use of self checkout

Mary

Love the wash station and hand sanitizers at the front door. Great job Sobeys!

V Jacob

Ordered chicken samosas, but they give us veg samosas. When we return them for the correct order, they reheat some old veg samosas and sold us as chicken again. ????.. what's going on.. lol.

Glori Wiafe Donkor

Good place to shop for your Groceries but i dont like waiting times to check out.need more cashiers than the self check

Darrin Erwin

Stocked and clean

Brandon Price

Not bad selection. Great apple selection and prices. Not a fan of the split level cart.

Ryan Sgambaro

Great cheese selection

Ray Lam

Decent store, but some cashiers don't seem to bag the groceries. What's up with that?

extreme.canadian.gamer.935 AKA SWEGLORD_GAMER

This is where I do all my shopping there nice friendly and have exactly what your looking for P.S amazing potato chip isle

CJ Samuel

Good place without having to go right downtown

Andrew Gorman

The entire staff, from the produce team, the meat department, to the cashiers were extremely friendly and helpful.

allie mckay

There's nothing here, found 1 of 5 items l was looking for.

Debra Reid

Like most of fort mcmurray the shelves were pretty bare.

Keith Haberstock

Working hard in the midst of trying times. Thank you.

Anga Tasa

Fresh food, clean ,friendly stuff ....' what can i say ! you should go there sometimes and check it out !

Gregory Pierre

Clean, easy to find products.

Cody Ivey

I don't visit this store often, as it's a bit out of our way. But, it's always had a huge selection and a great bakery.

Marc Bona

Has pretty much everything you need. Small selection on some stuff, but it's a small store.

Dave Yayechnick

Good bakery an produce.good deals on meat at times

Tyson Rumbolt

Where I do all my grocery shopping. I find it to be the best selection and mostly good prices for this town.

Daniel Small

Overpriced cause well hey you live in fort mac

Debbie King

Their produce never disappoints. And their prices are pretty reasonable.

Jenny B

A little pricier than other stores in town. That being said, the store is always clean, the selection is decent and the employees are very kind which is why I always shop there.

Steve W

Nice to see some of the downtown staff in the other location after the flood.

Scott Christopher

Prices were good for Fort McMurray. Everything in this town is way overpriced. If it had a grocery store that didn't try to bankrupt the consumer, it would make a major profit. Everyone would use it.

Joe time

It was really thick and tasted like wood

Byron shears

Great, they have really good birthday????

Patricia Wells

Good selection of produce and had extra service requesting items.

Penny Sinnicks

Great products and customer service

Jeff tilley

Produce is a barely ever stocked cut fruit tastes like it’s ready to expire. This place never seems to care including managers and I will never shop here again.

Erin Parish

Carts were sanitized before we took it, isles were stocked, and staff were super helpful

christopher pord

Can be a hit and miss at the best of times. Depending on staff, depends how long you have to wait to get checked out on till. Plan ahead.

Nom Covenant

It's clean, well stocked and usually has advertised specials in quantity. Friendly atmosphere.

Scooter

I love sobeys they have great customer serves.

Chadwick Wilson

Just another rainy day shopping!! Maximizing the air miles rewards today

Luke Groves

Has most things you'd expect to find in a grocery store

Maria colmenares

You'll find everything you need for cooking

Pat Jones

I came to this sobeys to purchase my Nova Scotia Christmas Tree. Excellent tree every year. Worth every penny. The Sobeys is good. High prices but the meats always quality.

Jimmy Baker

great grocery store and love getting my air miles lol.been shopping sobey's since 2014 no problems and good service????

Jay Chinn

I'm giving this a three-star because I live downtown and the one downtown isn't open yet so that means I have to go all the way up to thickwood to use sobies

Garrett Lewis

Best bang for your buck for groceries. Shelves could have been a little better stocked though.

Joann Christensen

Good selection and prices good sales friendly staff very helpfull love going there i get all there saleson fb nice

Jorsy Fuenmayor

Today for third time in two month I have a horrible and humiliating experience in your store, never before a Sobey's employee treat me in a rude manner as the white lady in the bakery, she didn't explain the procedure in place to order a cake (2nd time in two month) and today was the cupcakes, she snatched the cake book and berated me (this is not the first time that she berated me) but the physical abuse is a new low, if you have a Covid procedure in place to order from the bakery, it MUST be display CLEARLY. At this point, I don't know if the problem is my accent or the colour of my skin; never before in my 15 years living in Canada I feel so humiliated and mistreated. It is a shame, since the store is great, the employees are friendly and helpful. I hope this kind of behaviour stop, because my experience the last 3 times there were demeaning and hurtful

Linda Power

Nice staff

juice weezle

Hot food was aweful. Def had been in there was too long maybe even more than a day

Terry Thunder

I like the discounts for gas at shell when spending a certain amount.

Henry Ledrew

Nice very nice experience

Leann Brown

Always helpful and friendly and they have some great deals

Linda Aitkens

Nice clean store found what I was looking for

Kokum Simpson

Very friendly staff , was eager to help my find what I was looking for.

Matthew Thompson

Every other grocery store has free bags, and they were even out of pay for disposable bags. I'll go elsewhere next time.

Wally Feltham

Really nice people. All the staff are excellent.

Anonymous Acount

Love this store because it is close by, always come here almost 3 times a month but didn’t have the courage to tell this in any of the employee. My complain is they never put the meat in a clear plastic bag during check out, you needed to ask if they can put it in a bag (clear plastic bag). The first time I ask the cashier she point it to me where the bag is and did it myself..????. Other stores they will bag it for you (clear plastic bag) at check out. Lastly, please if you are going to help the customer bagging their groceries please do not mix the meat with the rest of the groceries for sanitation purposes..
