Great variety of best cut meats

Michael Murphy

We love going to Sobeys in St. Albert. They have good deals but it is not too big of a place to shop in. They also have a good selection of gluten and dairy free alternatives.

Marian Curran (Veda)

Never a problem at Sobeys

Chris Moffatt

Clean but odd layout for products.

ROBERT HOOKES

Love the friendly staff. The shelves are clean, consistently in the same location so its easy to find stuff, your type A, want to get it and out quickly, you drive out of your way to get Sour dough bread for the wife at this awesome grocery store.

Janine Snow

Great produce always fresh fruit shelves always stocked great customer service

Maan Naoom

Clean fresh produce helpful staff

Lauren van Keulen

In my opinion this is one of the best Sobeys locations I've shopped at! The selection is better than at a lot of other stores - the gluten free and natural food aisles are excellent. The staff are very friendly, and the meat counter staff are always happy to wrap up uncut soup bones for me from the freezer for my dogs. Produce is always stocked and fresh. My usual stop for day to day essentials!

R A

Just a wonderful place to shop.

Davide FurPharo

It's a Sobeys. A little older and smaller but good.

Rob Meltzer

Sobey’s we’re carrying Greenfield pork, great back ribs, tenderloins, chops and loin roasts, excellent quality but dropped the supplier for a cheaper source, they did the same thing with Sunrise Poultry! Excellent fryers, roasting chickens and parts but dropped! Did the same at Safeway! And they wonder why their market share is so poor!

Aaron Petherbridge

Standard sobeys, not much to say really.

Catherine Buhr

Good organic aisle

Laura Bosch

Helpful, always stocked shelves, lots of helpful employees, comparable prices.

J & G Thompson

Good overall selection and products. A little more expensive than the larger store chains, but more local.

B M

Very clean and well stocked.

Mike Kachkar

Super clean, friendly staff and free bags!

Brandy Mitchell

Great selection and above average Customer service ????

Loretta Zutz

Staff was very helpful but things are a little more expensive than other places

Faisal Gillani

Very well placed stock neat clean store handy staff valuable support

Leon

Large selection of stuff and everything is fresh. Only issue is Sobeys is expensive in general so you're paying a premium for many things here. Even when things are on sale they are more expensive than going to Walmart or Superstore.

Cathy

Meat selection and deli counter are fantastic. Friendly staff. Great selection of items.

Deberah Kearns

I always shop here. Love the small size & familiar friendly staff.

QUALITYREVIEWS

Great place for a quick shop .

derek hamilton

Good bakery

David Carew

Great prices and shopping

Bos Ma

love to shop here, although the parking area is terrible. Due to the slope, i have hard time holding on to the cart while putting groceries into the trunk. The shopping cart keeps rolling away.

Matthew Gillam

Great grocery store.

Barry Linklater

Great store!

Maryann Rosie

My pharmacist is here

G M

This is the only big box grocery store in these parts that offers a local option for ice. Columbia Ice is a St. Albert owned business located in Acheson. When you shop at this Sobeys take a selfie with an employee and thank them for supporting local business and helping keep small businesses in Alberta strong. It not easy to do for big box grocery which has slim margins so when they support local I like to acknowledge them for doing so. If we don’t support each other nobody will. We all make Alberta strong by supporting local business.

Lucile Wheat

I shop here ever two weeks. Store is always clean and staff is friendly

Craigr Bro

Excellent service and great selection of foods.

Bryant Culhane

Lots of selection

Cameron Savill

Great staff.

Deena J

Great fresh foods, including sushi!

Share Bear St. Pierre

Very impressed by their staff.

Steven Klyne

Just a heads up if you need to do any grocery shopping. I was just at walmart and then sobeys. You should avoid sobeys. They are drastically price gouging. An 18pk of no name eggs is just over $2 at Walmart, $4.25 at Sobeys. 30pk of toilet paper ar walmart $15, sobeys its $23. No name bacon at walmart $2, at Sobeys $7. Sobeys explained that they need to keep people working. I agree. I have no problems with that. However, Walmart isnt price gouging and they're hiring 10,000 people country wide. When I went to walmart it was busy. So I went to Sobeys. They were completely empty of people except the workers. Avoid Sobeys as they're profiteering of the current pandemic.

Alison MacIntyre

Not bad

Rara Su

One of my fave grocery stores!

Deesara De Silva

It is a great place to get groceries and has an amazing atmosphere.

sony thomas

Good place for salted beef and more stuff.

Jonnysnacks Mcgill

i have brought home expired, or near expired vegetables more than once. (it should not be on the shelf...)

Jim Whitesell

They usually have what we're looking for but quite often the checkout lanes are backed up with quite a wait.

Pierre JM Racine

Very fresh fruits and veggies

Ray Radcliffe

Curtious staff

Tony Schacher

The best deli

Ibrahim Sidhom

Very professional, clean and nice place and staff. They are so helpful

Anita Meek

Sobey's has Beyond Meat burgers. Look for them in the Meat section, in an open display case.

Bob Hunter

Great quality and choices

GLENN GONZAGA

So far its very convenient and clean surroundings and very organized. Easy to find the goods you want and not so crowded even are whole area not so huge. Cashier is always ready to serve. Thank you

Sl B

Not that clean of a place . veggies are old.

Rani Andresen

Always a pleasure

Derrick Meyer

Came for a birthday cake. Staff were very unhelpful on the phone and required us to come into the store to order a cake. Cake was good once we got it but the design was slightly sloppy. Tasty and on time though. Staff were very friendly upon pickup. Came with free candles which were a nice touch.

Ron (NinjaRonald)

After 10 years of shopping in St.Albert, I've finally settled on this specific store as my favourite. The staff are always ready to help out, the facilities are always clean, and the stock is very fresh. A+ job guys, keep it up :D

Serge Lavrinenko

No more plastic bags. Ok. To save environment. Ok I got it. Couple questions in this respect: 1. When you saw a plastic bag on the ground last time? 2. All individual items on the shelves are still mainly packaged on plastic. Why not to go plastic-free completely and have all fruits, veggies, meat and cheese - all loose on the shelves?

Ryan MacIsaac

Went to pick up hamburger meet and they didn't have enough on the shelves. They also stopped stocking most of the YVES products. Will likely go to other grocery stores for better selection for now on!

Darren Sieben

Wouldnt let me in without a mask...

Bino

Great variety for your grocery needs. I’ve worked there before, and have been advised that if I do not know where a product is, I was to point them to the furthers aisle away, and as they go to search for their product I am to go ask where the product actually is, so that if they do end up complaining, I would be able to redirect them properly. Terrible customer service. My father was 79 years old at the time and was told to stock shelves on a step ladder. He passed out due to his vertigo on the ladder, fell and split his head open and was found 10-15 minutes later laying in a puddle of his own blood by a CUSTOMER. I was declined CCTV footage even as an employee, and was fired the upcoming week due to “having my phone in my pocket”.

Kevin Dedels

Under staffed. Disorganized. And no staff to help on the self checkouts. The self checkouts can't even scan a loaf of fresh bread!! It just says item not found! And when the red light of death comes in the checkout , THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOBODY to address the problem. The store is old and not very clean. I won't be back. There are other fine stores in St. Albert that are more than willing and capable of addressing concerns in a more timely fashion.

Tyler Palmer

typical Sobeys. Good bread.

Jana

Night staff were very helpful and nice. They went the extra mile. The lady that was working the self check was awesome. Hope to see her again

dale A

I use the pharmacy all the time. Very knowledgeable

Crystal Loos

Awesome service

Christopher New

Good local store.

Papergirl

Good

Axiana

Vegetables aren't that fresh. Will not price match Edmonton Sobeys flyers

Matt Ayres

A little smaller than the larger grocery stores but has a nice small town feel

Chelsea Owen

Prices are higher than I remember But all in all I usually have a great experience I wasn't able to find any employees that work there to help me find what I was looking for and I know they have it I just could not find the right aisle any who it would have been a 5 star but I only did for star just because I couldn't find anybody to help me…

SamPaula Boy

Great place to work

Glo Rempel

Very friendly staff , free buggies & bags . Also free parking.

B.A. Tanguay

My preferred Sobeys..however the past 3 shopping experiences were disappointing. Friday, May 10 stoped to purchase corn on the Coby..bulk...nothing left and flyer week just started! Yesterday, May 11, needed extra lean ground beef..sold out. This was at 1 p.m. Needless to say, very frustrating. Yes.. Mother's Day weekend, BBQ weather, but really?? This is more the exception than the norm. Still, for Sobeys, a good store.

Anita Reff

Clean and organized.

S L-G

Ok produce

Courtney Stylesser

Easy to shop here , quicker for shopping than the bigger grocery stores ..not packed with people like the bigger grocery stores, prices are decent, food variety is decent.

cassyluvzu

Lady I got today was not good, have had her before and she just tosses the food down hard. Should teach them how to bag properly, puts fruit with cans.

Josef Frieburg

Averagely priced friendly staff and good taste testers

Matthew Alexander -Brown

The best Sobeys in the greater Edmonton area

Justin Ward

Nice staff. Clean store.

Dearl Bergstrom

My go to store. They have it all and keep me fed

Karen’s Bags & Bins

Sobeys has some of the freshest vegetables and fruits around. I like to shop there when they have a buy one get one free event, or when they have a special air miles rewards event.

vanessa macdonald

Average grocery store

M Winikoff

Always a terrific store.

John Polegi

Cool

Jessa Serene

I love Sobeys health section. Produce is fresh, clean and easy to find all your fruits and veggies. Wide variety which is why I know I will find what I need each visit.

natalie Szekely

Nice neighbourhood feeling Sobeys, love the fact that the cashier cleans in between each person! Great COVID protocols

King Nation

The best deals, always awesome sales going on

Patricia McNeil

They carry Dairyland milk...yay

Tara

The staff at this Sobey's are ALWAYS fantastic, super helpful and kind. I always enjoy chatting with the cashiers as they efficiently and carefully pack my groceries. I am a super critical person, but honestly have no complaints about this Sobey's (ok once a young staff member was standing around chatting while my cashier really needed help to bag and he was supposed to help me take out my groceries as I had 2 carts, and was too busy chatting so I ended up taking out one cart coming back and grabbing the second and doing it all myself while he stood there!!! but that was one experience out of hundreds and I don't see him there anymore anyways :))

Greg Couch

Another good place to shop. Found a product that no other store has. Very good.

Edward Bagan

Because I work there! Lol

Peter

BEST TIRAMISU CAKE EVER!!

Andrea Myers

Very friendly staff!

Sharon Magnuson

The produce is always fresh

JJ 2340

Over priced

Elaine Haase

So yes has very good selection of fresh fruit, vegetables and a lovely bakery.

Trevor Strauss

Huge store

Connor Parratt

Self check out associate left the area to return carts. Half of the customers were stuck waiting for the assistant while they were busy doing someone else's job. The associate didn't even apologize for the delay when they returned. The self check associate should be focused on the shelf check outs! Your self check out associate needs to be retrained! Self checkout is the future and you guys are lagging behind!

t bennett

Fresh, quick and convenient

victoria smith

First time and last they had nutten we were looking for

Jenny Yu

I reside in another city and called the store with intent to inquire about the possibility of prepaying for purchases as gifts and arranging for them to be delivered. The Sobeys representative, Kyle, was friendly, thorough, and explained the options I had. He went above and beyond to ensure the items I was looking for were in stock and set aside, plus verified the anticipated delivery locations to ensure the best location selection. The delivery program lead, Dean, called back to confirm details and also helped me enclose personalized messages. Each encounter with every employee of this Sobeys has been terrific. The friendliness, professionalism and patience are greatly appreciated. Kudos and thank you, Sobeys!

Joshua Bosso

It's a grocery store what else do u need?

Doug Lindgren

Helpful staff

Ken Ginther

Bakery is great. Too bad they bought Safeway because you can really notice Safeway's influence in other products and service. It's a step down in my opinion. But hey, it's only my opinion.

TheTeamster4life

Clean

Ashley D

While being Sobeys and Safeway mutually-owned... Sobeys very expensive and doesn't have everything I was looking for smaller, more Gourmet Market

Kelsey McGill

Friendly staff, quick fast check outs and the little shopping carts for kids!

JK “Jinx8423” Games

Grocery

Jim Hazel

Over priced

Marathongal

A go to place for fresh bakery items. More expensive than Superstore.

Miranda Yellowdirt

It's great..

Allison McCulloch

All the cakes they have on hand were past expired date, so I order a cake from here Thursday or Friday for a Birthday and they called me today (Saturday) to tell me they only have chocolate. I explain to her that no one likes chocolate and that is why I order in advance, so I cancel because why would I buy a cake that no one likes to eat? and I am kind of screwed because its 3pm on a Saturday.... Thanks!

Cody Smith

Love this place

Dale Willard

Clean and neat and the store is well laid out the place is really well lit too, some of the others are too dark. They have a good selection of everything and several choices for each. I like their seafood selection, I think it is the best in FSJ as far as grocery stores go, their Tuna steaks are outstanding.. and that is what I usually go there for, I highly recommend trying some on the grill. . They also have a great butcher shop, much better than the folks at the bottom of the hill. Their bakery is also pretty good. My only real complaint is I can't get AirMiles here, I am a Sobeys Club member but I have no idea what that gets a person, PC gives points that you can convert to pay off your bill and Walmart gives cash back. Anyway doesn't matter, parking isn't great but the groceries are 10/10.

Heather Harapnuik

The prices are a little higher then Walmart or superstore but not as busy

Pamela Smelsky

Best produce. Kid loves mini shopping carts.

Chase Krier

Good selection

Michael Grayston

Covid rules and lane directions were not being followed

Sheena Atamanchuk

It's ok I just find the pricing a little higher than most grocery stores. I prefer save on foods or superstore because of the price matching. I know I get the best price and quality.

TJ Kaminski

Sobeys has the MEAT!

Randy Lamb

Clean and well stocked

Philip Squires

Nice Friendly staff

Kathryn McCormick

Was just at this store to purchase the newly released "CUBAN LUNCH " bar, they were not yet in the system but John and his grocery manager went out of their way to get me the product! Great customer experience! Beautiful clean and extremely well stocked store! Keep up the great work!????

Patrick “Starman” Starr

Above average grocery store

Vince Vanbrabant

Spicey

Barry Haugen

Good store.

Jennifer Greene

The produce is too expensive for the quality, canned goods are not restocked often enough.

Ken T

Just another supermarket. Adequate but nothing special. Prices close to competitors.

Bruce Richards

good quality

Darlene Vaugeois

Excellent food & service

vernadette nuestro

good

Jeff Oliver

Nice layout, pricing no better or worse than any big grocer' s .

Steve Farrell

There are other options in St. Albert, but none are as friendly. They carry big brand names and local products. The only negative thing I have to say is that they have dropped the Bailey's line of coffee creamer and Simply Limeade. All of the floor staff are excellent. They take the time to say "hello" and make you feel welcome. Well done for fostering a positive, welcoming atmosphere!

Mark Spencer

clean and great food selection

Wilfredo Sison

Nice place. Hopefully they have a price match like other grocery. God bless

Dwayne Borodawka

Always a great variety

Full Diaper

Can be real light on sale items often not enough. Especially on blue Friday

Elly Walberg

They carry greenfield meats.

nicole bowers

Best quality of food by far. A Bit pricy but that's to be expected

Marie Cox

Great service

R Manzano

Very friendly staff. Got there past closing time and they graciously let me pick up a few items. Thank you!

Kyle Huggard

Good bakery, and good selection and prices.

Roger Stuparyk

Great place to shop. Great variety and prices. Nice staff as well.

Margaret Thompson

I always make a point of calling in at the store when I'm in st. Albert they always have some really good prices on meat

Wael Kassab

Although more expensive but higher quality for non packed items and much safer during the pandemic as you can notice some real restrictions around in the shop

권신애

(Translated) Good quality products but expensive (Original) 좋은 품질의 제품들 그러나 가격은 비쌈

Daryl Daniels

Handicapped Parking is Limited to 4 stalls. I would request more as 4 stalls just dont cut it. accessibility to the store is great, needs more ramps onto the side walk from each row of where cars/handicapped stalls are for people in wheelchair bound people.

Darcy

Love the deli! So many delicious things to choose from!

Jhelo Soberano

Love fresh part... so inviting..

Mike Nordlander

Decent grocery store. Their produce and deli are really good - I love the pulled roasted chicken and turkey you can get in the deli/meal solutions area. Some of the store made salads in the deli are really awesome as well. Most of the staff I have dealt with here appear to be quite pleasant. I should also mention that the store is really clean. The store does have some low points though - like many other reviewers have pointed out, it is a bit pricey. Also, compared to some of the other St. Albert grocery stores, the selection isn't amazing. I like to buy some things here, but it definitely isn't the only place I get groceries at.

Adrian Isbister

Quick service, great selections, friendly staff.

Abin Babu

Good quality service..

Paul Hibbert

The cheese counter is the best in St. Albert

Brenda Vaillancourt

Always a GREAT trip....

Tara Robicheau

Love the selection, but a bit overpriced for my liking.

Patty Bennett

Friendliest Staff ever!!

DJ Whitaker

good place to shop with loys of selection, but I noticed you can get different brands for a lower price at wal-mart

david foster

Yeah at Sobeys in STL would you go on a Wednesday they usually don't have enough checkouts on Wednesdays so it would appear to be any other time other than that Wednesday to go there to shop.

John Lange

Great staff. Very knowledgeable. God value for your dollar.

Marvin Choma

Expensive

Mike Mishlawi

Super great service at the Pharmacy and amazing follow up as well. The pharmacist (I think his name is Georges) was amazing from the beginning to the end. The staff in the store overall were all very friendly. BTW, There is 3 pharmacies around my house in Edmonton, and one right next door to my work. Driving to St Albert Sobeys was 100% worth it

Peter Moloney

Great source of prepared food (precut fruit and platters) and meats. Very service focused and friendly staff.

Steve Pedersen

The guys in the meat section were extremely helpful in getting me a couple of items that were not available in the coolers. Thank you!

lilac wind

Good selection of gluten free products.

Matthew Stonhouse

Prices are a bit high, but selection is good. Usually pretty fast service

Alpha Harper

It has a great selection of healthy gluten free choices

Tyler Zaozirny

Clean, friendly staff, lots of options . Good deals.

Katherine

I went to find Vegan Coconut ice cream, I didn't find what I wanted but it's hard to find. Sober is pretty expensive and now they don't carry anything safe in the bakery department for people with a peanut allergy so it's pretty frustrating when you can't even pick up anything fresh baked.

Terry McGovern

Pretty standard grocery store. Decent produce, incredible deli and take out food counter

Ruth Pallasigui

A little bit expensive than the other but it's ok the store they have fresh food.

Terry Der

Friendly staff reasonable price

Terrence Bishop

Friendly staff

Shirley Mischuk

Very expensive, can't save money here

Terri McClean

I love that it is open till 11. It is usually well stocked and clean. Customer service at the customer service counter can be hit or miss but the cashiers are usually helpful.

Taylor Daum

Lots of staff on, saw some putting together a click and pickup order.

Dan G

Very polite and smart cashiers. A bit more money than safeway but hey its St Albert... Lol

lola seibel

Good fruit

Jeffrey Matte

The cashiers are fantastic here.

Richard Jenkyns

Great bakery, meat department has great cuts and selection

Carlos Cachicamo

I love this store. Its so huge and had most of what i needed. This was my preferred place to shop before we moved. Weirdly enough it had a sort of Safeway vibe to the place. Not sure how else to describe it. There was always tons of baked bread on the shelves whenever i went in to grab some. Meat department had a great selection. Overall just a good clean store and I'm really happy with everything they offer.

Kevin Hannas

Nice big store with fresh food selection or grab something quick to go. Always a good stop.

Tasmiya Pathan

ok

Frederick Duke

Not too big, not too small. Curteous and friendly staff.
