Reviews of Sobeys - Thickwood (Fruit Store)

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

Marcel Huebler

Nicest Sobeys in Fort McMurray

Natasha Nicole Ruskowsky

Great selection!

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.

Sean Keable

Great cakes

Paxton Saramaga

Great customer service and selection.

G. Ireland

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

Randy Norman

It's a grocery store no big deal

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!

Ty. Higgi

Close to home.... Not the cheapest to buy food at.

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

Stephanie Higdon

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

Quiet store but expensive

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

Jibber Jabber

Very expensive

Family Dogbe

Gteat place to buy cakes!!!

Britney Jacob

Awesome store decent prices for fort mac

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

Peter & Lindie Oliphant

Great deals

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

Paul Fitzgerald

Lots of sales

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

Andrew Solbak

Only sour note on my Fathers Day. After walking in to buy snacks and drinks before heading to the big car show down the street we were confronted rather rudely upon leaving as what appeared to be a manager and other employees were extremely bothered about the parking and chasing everyone out of their lot. We werent in your lot nor would we have been in your store if it werent for the car show. Amazing how all the businesses around you managed to embrace this awesome and rare community event and profit from it- paddys was PACKED despite their lot being FULL of car show goers. Get some ceativity and take advantage of the thousands of people walking past or being funnelled into your lot next time instead of just broadcasting to everyone how little you want to be a part of this community. Lesson learned: they have plenty of snacks and drinks at the show so I dont need to stop in next year or any other time for that matter.

Debbie King

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

andre roy

Good service.

Gordon Glover

There awesome

Peter Fudge

Sometimes good

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.

Arthur Stacey

Best bread.

Debbi Balsillie

Well laid out. Lots of selection

Joe time

It was really thick and tasted like wood

Mike Segato

Friendly service

Byron shears

Penny Sinnicks

Mr. Hayward

Erin Parish

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

Imoro Amidu

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.

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

Stephen Spencer

Friendly staff, quick checkout

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..

MIKE

Their carts are all busted junk

章Frank

Good place

Steph Pendergast

Super friendly staff
