Malvina's Your Independent Grocer Saskatoon

All good. Except they cheated on me!! I have been twenty years old customer. I DID NOT expect such a mind set of this business. Wanna sell rotten food - announce it and charge accordingly or give it free. But hiding a rot under the label! This is clearly intentional; Do Not even try to deny it. I am not spoiling your rating. But one more instance…!!

I can’t say enough amazing things about this store and its staff. They go the extra mile for their customers. I use this location to order groceries for my school home ec program and for my personal shopping. From the amazing ladies who pick orders, to the manager and owner-communication is great. The team here connects with me to offer suitable substitutions for items out of stock, and makes sure that the produce I receive is perfect and fresh. I won’t deal with any other store. These fine humans make my day every time I deal with them.

Shelves are always stocked, produce is plentiful and fresh. I always find everything I need when I shop here even though its a smaller store. Definitely my new favourite grocery store! Cashiers are always nice as well. Very clean and organized!

I must compliment this grocery store for its cleanliness and customer service. I have been shopping at this location for years and I can’t say enough good things about them . You should go there early in the morning it is a thing of beauty , bright clean isles , every employee is busy doing their jobs. Produce trucks outside the building unloading and indoors the staff are doing their jobs like they love being there . The produce staff.are always loading and checking fruit and vegetable for high quality . It’s a thing of beauty .At checkout they even ask In winter if I need help to get to my car. Boy that is pretty powerful customer service . I do my best to advertise to my friends about this great place.

First impressions of the was that it is spacious and very well designed. The sections are labeled properly and well organized. The prices are average pice like every othe store with some deals here and there. Spacious clean isle very well stock items. Cashiers were friendly and courteous. Great place to shop especially if you on the east side of saskatoon. There is blood pressure machine open to the public in the building aswell.

Woman working at the till was super rude. Basically threw my bag of apples down to the end of the bagging area . Huffing and puffing and annoyed that it took a min for my app to load up. Rolling her eyes. Threw my receipt down where the apples were. Never again will I shop there.....

I feel unsafe here because of some of the staff they hire. The other day I was shopping here with my mother, and there were some young employees in the frozen foods aisle. The tallest one of the 3 men was wearing a mask, and as he was unboxing frozen foods with a knife, he was recklessly swinging the knife around back and forth in the air as he was cutting boxes. It seemed like an intentional but plausibly-deniable attempt to intimidate the customers in that aisle (maybe 4 or 5 customers) while still 'joking around' with the other 2 co-workers. Like he gets a thrill out of being a possible threat. It was scary.

1. I invariably find good deals on good products in this store. Every time. Love being able to collect PC Points & redeem them on groceries. 2. The owner greeted me in the produce section one day, thanked me for shopping at her store & asked if there were any products I wished she carried. I listed off a few things from the top of my head & she took notes. Today I actually noticed it in one of the aisles & bought it! 3. Two outstanding gentleman employees during my shopping trip today: one cashier who made authentic, friendly conversation while scanning & packing my items. One cart retriever who respectfully offered to collect my cart for me after I was finished unloading my bags into my trunk. Mind blown. I'm sold on this place!
