Great little grocery store. Fantastic produce at good prices.
Great little market with a good selection.
Great selection of fresh sushi, salads and red meats/ produce. Tends to get rather full and lacks a lot of regular products that other stores have. For quick trips and coffee, its a great spot
Good location next to Vessels and certainly better stocked than the grocer at Strathcona Plaza on Panorama. Interesting selection of President's Choice and No Name mixed with more expensive brands. Aisles are a tad narrower than elsewhere. Fresh produce looks good. We saw toilet paper on sale, which is nice to witness during COVID-19 (Dec 2020). Hope they are able to make this location work as it looks to be an asset to the neighborhood.
What a great grocery store ! Very clean and well laid out ... Staff are extremely helpful ! Sundays are 10 % off What's not to love ....
Staff are always very friendly and helpful! Great selection. I love the screen stationed at the entry of the store telling you how many customers are already inside and how many more are allowed in. Super cool and a great idea! Very happy to have this new addition in the neighborhood
This is my favorite grocery store in Victoria. Not too large, not too small. Great selection of fresh produce and promotions offered. The staff are helpful and friendly in ways that actually feel pretty genuine and suggest that perhaps this may be an enjoyable place to work.
I thought that it was going to be over priced but it's a really decent.
Clean, good vegan options, store brand is mostly Loblaws stuff (no name, president choice) a great kombucha section. Owned by neighbouring vessel owners. Good deli and a little cafe you can grab desert or a sandwich.
Very clean, modern and organized grocery store, with a great selection of local groceries and fresh produce. Staff is very friendly and welcoming!
Great local store and staff. Happy to see they stock The Very Good Butchers products! Bonus!
Just pulled in for some bread, and came out with piles of groceries. I spend a lot of money on food cooking for a family of five. I'll use Costco for bulk but am always looking for a grocer to fill out the pantry. This is the place! It felt similar to a hybrid of Market on Yates and Root Cellar but priced significantly lower. I've walked the aisles of nearly every grocer in town, and this place checked off all the boxes.
Great to have a grocery store that I can easily walk to!
Great selection of gourmet foods, friendly staff, we really needed a store like this on the neighbourhood.
Very expensive
Lots of great fresh produce and surprisingly quite a big store with a wide selection. Love the location and aesthetic of this place!
Fabulous local Market with a great selection
Reasonable priced and have a good selection ????
Beautifully run, much needed addition to the neighbourhood.
My friend introduced me to the Urban Grocer yesterday. I didn't even know it existed! They have a lot of specialty products and lots of local ones as well. I was quite impressed. Good prices on local produce too.
I love this little grocery store.
Great little neighborhood store, with conscious young staff. Do most of my shopping here. Everything fresh. Sunday 10% off. Competitive prices and frequent discounts. Use to be Safeway store years ago.
First time in store. Nicely organized. Decent selection of product for the size. Worth exploring more. Nice to see another local presence
This is an wonderful mid sized grocery store. They have a little deli. Great produce selection. All the milk alternatives. The only place in town that I have found that sells 18packs of free run eggs. Level ground coffee and an on site grinder. It's a nice to have a grocery store so close to home that is this well curated. If you were going to head on a quick picnic date I'd stop here because it has a good selection of specialty foods and regular things that one would need. I'm glad this place is here and I hope it stays for decades.
Great selection. Regular and gluten free dairy free products. Prices competitive.
Great but if ppl tear off their masks in a glazed over zombie lemming routine it will become too difficult to manoeuvre around without people coughing splatters of covid everywhere and no right to say "please don't kill me or my family" that's rude.. killing other fine. Great store AWFUL planet and even worse people.
Lovely!
I am very happy to have Urban Grocer in my neighbourhood! It's a great little store with friendly staff and pretty much everything I need for the day to day shops. They also have good weekly deals.
Pros: Cheerful staff, quick checkout, well organized and convenient. Nanaimo bars to die for. Cons: Prices seem a little higher than competitors for some identical brands/products and the selection is a somewhat limited, given that this is a smaller store. Overall, it's a decent addition to the neighbourhood and I imagine it will continue to improve over time.
Very helpful staff, small but has all that you may need and at good prices.
This is a small local grocer right around the corner from vessel liquor and shoppers drug mart. They have a surprisingly good selection for the size of the store, the prices aren't bad, they carry presidents choice brand, and everything is 10% off on Sundays. I'm here almost daily grabbing a thing or two that I need. There is a very small selection of frozen and canned foods if that's what you're looking for; breads are a little sparse, but the meat dairy and produce are great. The deli isn't bad, and there's a good selection of cold drink and quick lunch options. All in all I love this place.
Their prices are actually pretty good... About equal to Save-on and sometimes the sales are better (especially on produce - holy mackerel they have a ton of great produce as well as many local island products.) I live in the wrong part of town but if I lives nearby it would be my go-to grocery store hands down.
Lots of great deals, this store is so Awesome
Phenomenal shopping. Reasonable prices and specials
A great local grocery store. Clean, fairly priced and always stocked with lots of local and international products. I shop here happily every week.
Small neighborhood grocery store with high quality deli and produce.
the prices have come down a bit since they first opened. a quality selection of foods for sure. the cash/self-check-out area is a nightmare, but they're understaffed and trying their best.
Easy shopping ,clean ,fresh and good selections. Not cheap.
Cute little store, tons of selection!
Convenient neighborhood market with good selection.
Love this place
Great grocery store to get special items, the interior is really nice.
Diverse selection of goods, friendly staff, clean and fast service. And they stock maiiz tortillas, the best tortillas in the city.
Great place with a lot of variety.
Since they opened in the neighborhood Urban Grocer has saved me many times times when I've been in need of something for dinner or a missing ingredient! Freshest produce and beautifully organized. It's amazing having this store join the neighborhood!
Up until this 2021 snowstorm I had never been to this place. But today I couldn’t drive so I walked to the closest place that would have what I needed. I trudged through the snow until I came upon this Urban Grocer gem!! WOW! This place didn’t just have what I needed. It had EVERYTHING I needed!!! Top quality ingredients throughout the store. Much of it seemed local and amazing!! I’m happy to give this place 5 STARS and will be adding this grocery store to my regular haunts!
I'm loving having this store literally across the street....
Great selection, amazing service. I came in with a nosebleed and a very nice employee was there to help me out. I will be returning.
Just became a new resident of Oak Bay. Had to check this place out. Sure beats shopping at Save-On or Fairway. Great prices, unique selection, fresh produce & food. Support your local small businesses folks!
What a great store. From the minute my friend and I went through the door, we were greeted with smiles. The store is bright and clean. The staff are so eager to help. The fruit and vegetable area was amazing...so fresh. The deli was wonderful, so much to choose from. I expect to be there at least once a week. Well done Urban Grocer.
Love this new grocery store on Fort street! It is small but has a great selection of products and you can find some nice local products there. They have a lot of “local” stuff I have only been able to find in Vancouver like Yoggu vegan yogurt. I will say, when it’s gets busy it is a bit cramped but it’s worth it for the friendly staff and well stocked shelves.
Highly recommend Urban Grocer. First they have an automatic sensor that counts how many are in the store and if you may enter or not and secondly, you are supporting a local business.
So happy to see this store open. Was excited just to have a grocery store in the area. I was pleasantly surprised to see the competitive prices, wide selection, and exciting butcher/premade section. I highly reccomend.
Perfect neighborhood grocer
I have bought meat twice here, chicken and pork when it was on sale and it didn’t last to the date’s best before. It smelled awful and went bad, so I ended up throwing it away. I buy all my meat elsewhere now.
Love this new grocery store! Good selection of everything you might need as well as a variety of local artisan products from the region! Reasonable prices and excellent friendly and helpful staff! A definite favourite.
Pretty reasonable prices and loads of variety.
My favorite place to shop for groceries in the city... Daily deals to be had:)
Excellent small grocery in a busy neighbourhood. Interesting international food items. They offer daily discounts on certain items.
Nice smaller neighbourhood "almost full" grocery store located next to a pharmacy and at a major transit stop (Oak Bay Junction). Long lines after 5p Fridays, usually no or minimal waits, generally, other times. Good selection of grocery items with prices sometimes slightly higher than big name competitors. Most basics are comparatively priced. The offer good selection of cheese (including non-dairy varieties). Offers to-go meal and beverages (coffee/tea) and outdoor seating. Offers self-check option. Staff are helpful. Nice shopping experience. Very good and clearly defined COVID-protocals in place. A valuable addition and option to the area.
Another great local company! Really nice produce.
My new favorite grocery store! Independent and locally owned with a great selection and competitive prices... And the Sunday to Thursday discounts are nothing to sneeze at.
Small grocer with a decent selection. Produce looked fresh.
Came here for the first time and was perfectly charmed! Staff was very friendly and helpful, there was a large selection, and the prices were better than expected. Stoked that this is the new neighbourhood grocer!
Fantastic place. Some of the produce deals are unreal. 77 cent English cukes, 1.88 lbs asparagus. Cheaper than box stores. Everyone is always super friendly. Always stop on my way home. The sandwiches are killer too. The Oxford is my favorite. Keep up the good work.
Great selection of groceries with competitive prices. Really nice staff and good COVID safety measures in place. Really happy we went there.
Wonderful little community grocer. Perfect for the neighborhood! Despite the smaller size they have a great selection, good prices and fantastic staff! The store has good sized aisles, is accessible for stroller/wheelchair and is very clean and well organized. The staff have all been helpful with navigating the new shop, as well as very polite with greetings and thank you's for shopping.
This place has 2 things that set them apart. 1 - they have the ginger & wasabi SEPARATE from the sushi so it doesn’t infect half the food in the box like it does when you pack it together, like they do at most stores. So thank you for that! Also the deli has the best Mac and cheese I’ve ever had.
Quick in n out place! Local!
Love the selection
Usually not crowded. Produce is good quality but $$$$$. Like most stores, never stocks tasty no alcohol beer. Way too heavy on chips pop and junk food so never take a child with you.
Great place for more niche/upscale items!
My first time in this wonderful gem of a grocery store. It is so much bigger than it looks from the outside! Plenty of selection to get anything you need from Staples to organic produce! Hopefully Urban Grocer will be my local one-stop shop in the near future!
Great costumer service! Kind staff, great new addition to the neighborhood, great sales and selection. Happy new costumer!
Lovely selection! I love the variety they have. Lots of great local products, and lots of good brands. Prices are fair / competitive with other stores. Some of their items are amazing deals (even at regular price) and sale items are always a good deal. Most of the time I walk here, but when I have driven I've never had any problems finding parking in the area, even when it's busy. It’s really nice to have a store within walking distance. I absolutely love shopping here! Their produce is stellar here!!! It's my go to grocery store.
Excellent ????
I was excited to check this place out since I’ve heard they have many vegan products and I heard good things about it. However, when I was just browsing the store an employee came up to me and asked if I was in a bad mood... even after I tried to joke around about it saying I must still be tired and stuff the employee continued to ask me two more times if I was cranky or upset. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! On top of the conversation with the employee it’s very overpriced, disappointing local business.
I just had a cashier throw my groceries at me because she was offended by the smell of my hand sanitizer. Told me to stand away from her while she processed my order covering her mouth and making a big dramatic show of it. My receipt says “Shannon” I’m not sure if that’s who it was, an older lady who I saw earlier in the week get in to some sort of an altercation with another gentleman. Will not be returning here
We are new to the area (from downtown where shopping is easy) and couldn't be happier with the Urban Grocer. The staff are wonderful and the inventory is great. Just perfect. Love the coffee bar too - great food selections. Very grateful you are here!!
Great customer service. Lots of selection, good prices and the cafe has delicious london fogs!
Super nicely lit, very clean, and surprisingly good prices. Had a very positive experience while shopping here!
Fabulous little market right next to Vessel. Such a relief to finally have a decent market so close to home, with a great selection to boot (for it's size) good sales as well.
Very ample selection of everything, super-helpful staff, I’ll be back!
Rotting produce...need I say more
Good coffee!
This place makes a great effort. With good deals on produce, meats and other sales and some stuff local.
A bit on the pricier side if things, but still a nice atmosphere for a grocer. Haven't taken advantage of the deli yet, but it's a good place if you're looking for a smaller shop, or want something organic.
I like everything about this new, local grocery. Prices are very good, staff is super friendly and I especially like that it is owned by a resident of Victoria. And if you shop on Sundays, you’ll get 10% off your bill.
Lots of selection for the size of store and great prices! Also love the reusable bag one of the friendly staff members gave us!
Upscale market with lots of choices. Very big for it's small size. Reasonable prices on most things, very competitive prices on staples, full deli, meat department (including organic beef and chicken), lots of good quality produce (including organic), etc. Full size market in a smaller footprint. They even have President's Choice White Cheddar mac and cheese (much better than KD)! Very helpful staff, too. Recommended.
Store is clean and well-organized, their staff are really friendly and helpful, and their produce is better than what you'd find at the big store down the street.
Friendly, helpful staff and a great location for the locals in that part of Fernwood!
We love you, such a beauty of a grocery store, prime location, you have lots of neighbors who are happy you're here!! Friendly, helpful, keep up the good work!! We appreciate you♥️
Great new grocery store with very helpful staff.
I go there because they have cheap yerba mate and it is next to the liquor store
Competitive prices cozy store and great location. I grab lunches there now.
Very friendly, gteat prices, freshest leaf lettuce ever!!
The only grocery open on Christmas Day. Since then, I’ve been coming back often. They have everything you need.
Usually have great experiences here, tonight being the exception. Was served by what I can only describe as a cranky old lady who proceeded to go into my bag after I had packed it and started throwing the plastic wrapper for my produce away. I find it incredibly irresponsible to do something like this during a pandemic, not to mention the fact that she has zero right to do it. Would question shopping here again if she's still employed as it would show that management is okay with her actions.
Fantastic little shop that is close to my place. There in house made Italian sausage is killer and the steaks I made last night were top notch quality. Found my new store
Great service & selection. Well organized on opening day. Impressed- I’ll be back
Good selection of items, higher prices on certain things. Not impressed with the lack of measures taken for the pandemic. Isles are not marked, no one counting customers at the door. Left before I bought anything because there was way too many people in each isle. It will be good for last minute things needed but definitely won’t be my go to store for big shops.
The staff is amazing and your sales are super good. It's wonderful you made our neighborhood so much better!????
I love Urban Grocer!! Cute, affordable, well-stocked, local. The opening of Urban Grocer was the highlight of my 2020. A great addition to the Oak Bay Junction neighbourhood.
I love the time I spend with my girl hanging out there
Great place to get your groceries ! Great selection of local products and produce. Really good prices too! Support this place !
come on folks - let's support local. Great little location - good and fresh variety of meats and veggies, and keep your cheezies at 2/$4 !!!!
Love that this is my local. Great selection of organic produce, snacks and essentials. Staff are friendly and I like that they have a stack of freshly sanitized baskets ready for you as you walk in ????
I cross town to shop here. There prices are a little high. They make up for it on the meat department. And the deli is wonderful. Thursday is the day to shop for discounts. Always covid sensitive and staff are great. Thank you Urban grocer . Karen Farley
Staff friendly and helpful in finding items. Nice lighting too.
Super convenient for me but the Veg is way over priced. So I go elsewhere.
I live in the area and was delighted to discover another grocery option on my walk home. I've been here three times now, and each time the staff have been absolutely lovely--so kind and attentive. They seem genuinely delighted to help. I also got a special discount promo from a friend today, and saved a lot of money (prices are already quite good on a lot of things). Nice, high-quality produce and a solid Covid policy round the experience out beautifully. Thank you for the service and products!
Just wondering why the deli has changed up the sausage rolls? They were better before, tastier and cheaper! Hopefully you can carry them again.
Impressed... truly impressed! My first walk through was today to just buy one item but was captivated by the options they had on their shelves. Organic options... I mean LOTs! Unique products I had never seen before which Wowed me. And the prices? This is affordable for me to do a grocery shop in. Check this store out...
Nothing special but great addition to the neighborhood.
super good. friendly staff good stuff
Love this place. Victoria has been needing it for a long time.
No parking
