| - This place has a great variety of protein supplements, as well as other multivitamins and minerals supplements. Good store, just like most of the other shops I've been to. I don't see what else a sports nutrition store could have, compared to my past experiences with other shops.
However, I have a mixed review for their service...I've gone on a few occasions buying a whole bunch of stuff and this is my honest review (Sorry for having to do the colour labels but I haven't learned the names of the staff):
One black guy there is absolutely fantastic; extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and made friends with him instantly. Hooks up with freebies, a real chump.
One white guy is pms-ing on roid rage, sorry to be blunt, but this huge creatine monster oompa loompa didn't even come out of the counter to help me. He was just standing far back behind the counter pointing to indicate me to different products. No input, though I did ask nicely, smiling, for a nutritional information, I got shot back with a very rude "if you're that worried then just eat chicken and rice" in a very annoyed tone. Being a body builder himself, he should be able to be empathetic for the concern a female consumer can have for protein bars, and that carbs are not the only thing to look out for, but the balance of fat, sugar, carbs, and the importance of calorie counting is also a big deal for some people..I was in the store for about 15minutes and he was already annoyed as if he wanted to just sell the products and go back to being on the phone.
I went back today for a genuine misunderstanding and I could not stand the way he rolled his eyes behind the counter and said to the black guy "You take care of this one". The black guy on the other hand assured me that I had every right to be confused for the product labels and the misleading discrepancy of the nutritional value on some brands. He assured me that it was the company's fault. Hooked me up with free shakes. Really polite and professional, very knowledgeable with his stuff.
All in all, I'm only going back in there when the creatine monster isn't working.
