I don't know what's going on with Metro lately. They seem to be cutting corners in their meat and…read morefish department and it's showing. In the last few months the quality of the butchering snd the freshness of the products have been going downhill. Just today I purchased 2 sirloin steaks ($20) that looked in the package to be excellent. When I went to cook them I discovered that one of the steaks had large sections of fat about 2 inches wide running along the back of the steak. It's grain direction also seemed to change on the back making the steak more like a flank type steak than a sirloin . The steak was very tough, as expected when trying to grill a steak that's been butchered like a flank. This is the second time I have had this issue with this store in as many months. I think this is a very underhanded way to treat your customers. Do better Metro!

This morning (Saturday) I was at Metro on Lakeshore Drive in North Bay and when I was checked out…read morethere was only on cashier open. Increasingly this is the case and it is an obviously effort to have your customers use the self check out. In my case that will never happen unless you decide to give me an employee discount for my effort. I am fine with a self checkout as an option but if this kind of manipulation continues I will find a store that offers better customer service.

The lack of small carts (they're stolen by people living in the nearby apts for retired/elderly)…read moremeans my mom can't do her big shopping trips. She can't push the large carts, only the small ones. She now puts a basket on her walker and when it is full, she leaves. I'll later take her to another store with carts she can use where she'll do a larger shopping trip. But how many other people in the community have difficulty with the large carts? I know a few people who've had surgery or are awaiting surgery and can't use the big carts easily. Also, the store seems to be chronically understaffed. Even when the store isn't busy, there are carts in the outdoor corrals jutting into the parking lot and jamming traffic. Many times I've gone in and there are no baskets by the front door either. I've had to go to the aisles and find one myself. It doesn't take much for someone to roll a set of baskets back to the front unless you're just not giving staff enough hours or not hiring enough of them. When I had a painful joint issue every extra step hurt so having to search for a basket was sometimes enough to make me just turn around and leave again rather than walk up the aisle looking for a basket. There are solutions that would help people with mobility issues such as wheeling baskets. But I guess that would mean the big wigs at the head store wouldn't be able to buy an extra yacht or something and they may not be able to make record profits yet again. Then there are rising food prices we all could complain about (I noticed that small mixed tomatoes are now 1/3rd the weight they were about 3-4 months ago but going for the same price), but that's not an issue with this store in particular. That's just greedy CEOs taking advantage of disruptions (covid, oil wars) to charge even more than necessary in order to rake in record profits. We're down to just eating 2 meals a day but hey, the DOW is at 50,000. ;)

The service is terrible, cashiers are rude and management makes you feel like garbage.read more

I have been to this truck stop a few times for breakfast…read more The food is delicious. Food quality and taste may actually be this city's best. The coffee is very good. I'm not one to get excited about coffee, but this cup is great. Fresh, smooth, delicious. Eggs, home fries and protein (bacon, ham, sausage) are always served as I ordered it, the cook nails it every time. The secrete to this perfect breakfast is the toast. When offered the toasted home made bread for an additional $0.75. Do it! It makes an already good breakfast into a great breakfast. The wait staff is funny. A great sense of humor. Attentive, and friendly. The decor is stuck in the 80's but it doesn't take away from the experience. It may pull it all together. This is a truck stop and it feels like it. It's maybe out of the way. however, it is perfectly located for truck drivers.
