There are two kinds of No Frills in life. The amazing ones, where you walk around in awe saying "this is a No Frills? I feel like I'm at a Zehers!" ...and this kind. To be fair, this location is not horrible for the bad kind of No Frills. It absolutely falls into the bad No Frills category.
The good:
- It's close to my house
- It is honestly very well stocked, especially with dry goods
- They have half of a quarter of an organics aisle
- The guy on the sign (Dave) has a bad ass mullett
- There are several aisles of international foods
The bad:
- The produce is consistently horrendous
- The other people who shop here often smell horrendous
- The lineups to leave are horrendous (There has never been less than 5 people in front of me and I have been here over 20 times. OPEN MORE CASHES).
Will I shop here again?
Unfortunately, yes I will and I will bitterly complain about it every single time. You win my business only because of proximity to my home and because I like myself too much to ever set foot in the Food Basics at Gerrard square, which is a negative star rating.
