Reviews of Foodsmiths (Fruit Store)

Stephanie L

The store is clean and staff are friendly enough. You can find things here in little 'ole Perth that you cannot find elsewhere in town, it saves a drive to Whole Foods in Ottawa for example. That being said, it is too bad there isn't a bigger meat section. Would like to see grass-fed beef available for purchase.

Foodsmiths is a wonderful refuge from the busy-ness of large chain stores. It's my go-to for all of my vegan diet needs and I always return home with treats, bakery items, cheese and locally source meat for my carnivore boys at home! In an effort to treat my skin kindly, I purchase all of my skin care/makeup here too. One-stop shopping! All staff are wonderful, from the greeting in the produce department, to the selecting artisan cheese, the lovely lady helping me to choose my reading glasses and all the way to the cashier. Well done, Foodsmiths!

Expensive Some staff not overly friendly or actively helpful

Ginette Asselin

Expensive but they carry food other stores don't. I bought a blue cheese from France and it was the BEST blue cheese I ever had ????. They carry my favorite veggie pate ( from Fontaine sante) that I usually only find in Quebec, that was a very nice surprise. Love the row of bulk food as you come in. I recommend.

Mike Tunstall

I really like this store. Very clean and well organized. I like the prepared food and fresh produce. My wife likes all specialty boxed dried goods, but I think they’re all overpriced for what it is, but I guess people like it anyway.

Derek

Beautiful produce and hard to find health and wellness items.

Matthew Lahey

Any food you want can be found here. We have an elder friend who has a very strict diet, and consequently needs very specific foods like cheese with under a certain milk fat rating and chocolate with a specific range of cocoa, and this store and it staff always deliver. There is a massive selection of quality products with organics and local foods available too. High quality meats, produce, dry goods, freezer, dairy products and sweets all available. Also a selection of comfort products like pillows and birkenstock sandals also available. Staff are incredibly helpful as they always drop what they are doing to come and help you find exactly what you need. Prices are in the high range because you are getting the high quality products with a high selection and high quality service to boot. Because of the higher range, I would not be able to buy all my food here, but any products that I dont compromise on quality would bought here. Overall great selection of foods, great quality, and great service!

Lois Sandra Herrington

I heard this store had been given some type of award for how their establishment is layed out and when I went in I understood why. I enjoyed shopping there and it is clean and well organized too. Also, they have so much variety with holistic products I seriously would not have to go anywhere else. My only complaint would be their cashier staff isn't the friendliest I've ever come across.

Leah Arnold-Parsons

Jette Thorson

A wide variety of things here, a one-stop health shop. Knowledgeable staff

Lydia Kokline

Lots of choices. I was very happy to find the wild rice I was looking for. It is so hard to find it and they don't sell the wild rice in any supermarket, so I was very happy to find what I was looking for. Prices are faire. Lots of free parking and wheelchair accessible.

Lisa Binnie

Great selection of fresh organic foods, and so much more.

Terri Harrison

It is always, always (!) a great experience at Foodsmiths! Amazing service and attention, and a beautiful, varied selection of finer foods and health products.

Nicole Schur

I do most of my weekly shopping at Foodsmiths and rarely need to go elsewhere to find anything else. Staff are always friendly and helpful and the produce, in particular, is exceptional. A great source for microgreens and local chocolate ???? Bulk items are plenty and the health & beauty section is well-stocked.

Took the time to show me the benefits of Chaga Mushroom ???? Tea

V C

I seriously love this place. Ships so quick and they always add the best most thoughtful samples, they take into account your order history and spoil accordingly! Love the little notes that come with my orders!

Adrianne Gaffney Wotherspoon

Not as good as i expected. Would like to see more creativity with salads and prepared foods. Better meat selection would help too.

Riq Turner

Great products that you can't find elsewhere. Helpful staff.

Craig (crussellp)

One heck of a selection, and knowledgeable staff. Love shopping here! The only thing keeping this from a 5 star rating is the prices; there are a number of items that I can get for a fair bit cheaper if I shop around, but I suppose paying a bit of a premium helps ensure this place stays around!

Renate Graf

Great store... Hardly ever a line up to get in... Super fresh veggies and seasonal fruit. Friendly staff.

Catherine Dwyer

Love this store! Every time I visit it's my go to store... we even bring a cooler to take home yummy vegetarian/vegan/organic food we cant get anywhere else! It's a must visit if you are staying in or near Perth!

Sherrie Buchner

Great products, nicely displayed. You can find some healthy / organic / environmentally friendly / fair trade things here, which is usually more expensive. Good cleaning protocols.

This is a lovely grocery store with excellent selection and high quality products. The prepared foods are also excellent. The staff at this location are friendly and helpful as are many of the customers. Safety is taken care of here during Covid as well. All in all, well worth the trip even though I’m out of town. Enjoy!!!

Trevor Bradshaw

Nice little grocery store with great produce and health foods and supplements. Friendly and helpful staff.

Heidilyn M

Amazing produce. Good selection of natural health products

Rob Johnson

Very nice staff and store. However, the proportion of organic to regular produce is very low. Foodsmiths should decide whether they are a 'natural' food store or not.

Tim Williton

A wonderful gem here in Perth, Ontario. Quality food and many locally grown products. The staff and customer service should serve as a model for other businesses. Thanks for being awesome, Foodsmiths!

JC V

Good place for groceries.Clean , good variety.

Adrienne McDonald

Everyone is very friendly and willing to help if you can't find an item or will see about getting it in if they don't carry it. Store is clean and carries a nice selection of things you would not find in your average supermarket . Produce is fresh and often local whenever I shop there. It is a bit more expensive than your big box stores but that is to be expected in a smaller store. However it's a nicer shopping experience and better variety of organic food items. They even have a bulk area with spices and eco friendly fill your own shampoo and laundry soap. I highly recommend this store.

Pamela Feres

Jean Pierre Cabana

Good chicken wings

Herve Cavanagh

While offering good products, you really need to check the prices when at the cash. Often specials are not honored and extra charges were added to our bill, and this has happened more than once.

Bob McSorely

How can we make your experience better?

Susan McCrimmon

This was my first time there. I have to honestly say it is the best!! The produce was fresh and vibrant colors. The products were displayed perfectly on shelves and everything was well labeled. The cleanliness of the store was impeccable. They follow all the covid regulations. The prices are reasonable. They have supplements you can't seem to get anywhere else. The employees: well they were all very friendly positive, helpful and knowledgeable. I felt welcomed like being invited into a neighbour's home for tea!! I will certainly be going back. I highly recommend FOODSMITHS!! Thankyou!!

Adam Nephin

Great vegan selection

Richard Rollinson

Great produce

De Mera

A bit upscale but great produce and variety. Walking out the store after buying some groceries, the paper bag I was carrying ripped and a glass bottle of soda water broke. One of the ladies came right out to see if I was ok and cleaned up the glass for me and told me to get another bottle to replace the broken one. Such great customer service!

Great store packed with all kinds of delicious produce, fresh quality veggies, bulk bins and a whole gluten free aisle, they also have lots of ethnic ingredients for those people who like a bit of spice! They even offer fresh coffee (which is much better than the other stuff thats available out there) to drink while you browse the store for goods. Can't find something? Simply ask one of the super friendly staff. Overall a fantastic experience and a welcoming environment.

Brad King

Fresh produce/product all the time. Very healthy food. Supplement sources available. Large store. Pricey but well worth it for the quality of the food/products. Friendly employees. Highly recommend place. Located not far from highway 7.

I love the variety of health food products here however I do find it expensive

Christopher Scollick

Parking lot is small and not planned out very well. Store is very small and not a ton of room to move around. Prices are super high compared to same things in other stores. I dont think I would go back to this place due to all the issues. I wouldnt recommend going unless you really dont like going to the bigger guys. The store does feel very local tho.
