I might be addicted to this store😆 They usually have what I need and some things cost more than the same things at a supermarket (canned goods mostly and some dairy products) but so much of the veg and fruit are LESS expensive! Sometimes their organic produce costs less than the conventionally grown in other stores.
Great selection of veg, fruit, cheeses and the best eggs in the city. Great nut selection also. I highly recommend Ambrosia!
Well stocked and well laid out. Pricey but not overly so. Look for the sale items, which are usually really well priced.
This is basically everything I want in a grocery store. Great prices, speciality health foods, clean, organized, and organic food! I love shopping here. I don't know where I'd shop otherwise.
Unlike most stores selling groceries, this store charges 5 cents for each shopping beg during COVID. This despite the fact that the store charges much more for many items than other stores including Whole Foods. Fir example, they charge about $1 (20%) more for Oat Milk.
The store offers 1 hour free parking in the underground parking. When I was in (about 1pm), there were very few customers in the store and plenty of polite employees.
They have good variety of many products
This is a grocery and largely health supply store. I was surprised at the ratio of fresh product and grocery to dry goods including food, spices, snacks, supplements, cleaners, pet items, frozen items, baby, books, beauty, etc. I did think there would be more fresh foods. There is a small section of meats, and baked goods. The store is very well staffed - I must have seen a dozen employees. There is a sign inside offering carry out of your groceries, and the nearby underground parking is free for an hour. Items vary between/including local, vegetarian, vegan, organic, raw, pesticide free, free range, etc. The store has some bulk nuts, seeds, flours. I was surprised there weren't more bulk containers available for those who are eco-conscious. The plastic bags at produce say biodegradable, and there are paper and plastic bags available at checkout. There is a dedicated beauty counter with a variety cosmetics and a dedicated staff member. There is a reduced produce shelf hiding by the back corner near the washroom, though these looked very past due to me. There are many end cap shelves with featured products and sales. Aisles seem too narrow if your have a wide stroller or motorized wheelchair.
Tbh, I am unfamiliar with most health supply and grocery stores, and have never been to an Ambrosia before. I don't know what is considered good pricing for specialty places like this so I have left that comparison out in favour of pictures showing some of the pricing.
