Now renamed Goodway's…read more(due to new owner), it is still the same decades later with quality products and great customer service. As soon as you walk in, you can smell the array of spices sold here. You'll find an ample variety of nuts, grains, flours, & imported items. If you are needing a specific spice or ingredient to make that special dish, this is the place to go. This place has ingredients for all types of cooks including gluten-free, vegans, vegetarians, etc. The staff is helpful and friendly. They have different store hours (see attached photo). They are located on Sixth street in New Westminster (just across the street from Royal City Centre Shopping). There's parking on the street or just as easy, park in the Royal City Shopping Centre for free. Exit at the doors near the food court and Goodway's is across the street.

I have been shopping at this location since we moved into the neighborhood some 25 years ago. It…read morewas a pleasant departure from the big stores and although sometimes the prices were higher...it was convenient. I recently was very disappointed to see that the usual staff were not there...at the cashiers and was told that they are no longer working there! What a shock and after years and years of getting to know these people...suddenly they are gone. Also very irritating was the loud music. I was always confused by the previous music which had no rhyme or reason...nothing that you could even recognize but I managed to tune it out. Now it is even worse with...having to listen to "Like a Virgin" by Madona with the volume higher than before. Another small thing is that the mechanical horse and the railroad no longer operates or isn't there at all. Such a shame...the neighbourhood kids used to love it. This all may sound petty but in this day and age there are so many places to shop and I can say for myself...these two new events at Choices...staffers gone...and music issue are enough for me to stay away. Another sad loss...it is also evident at Save On foods in Kerrisdale as I am told it is owned by J. Pattison as well. So much for independent grocers.

I love this store because it carries all my favourite goods. I do have one problem that I must…read moremention that I'm sure others will face too. I am over 80 years old and walking is difficult for me. I always use a cart and I usually fill it and I spent a few months training this store to keep their carts near the entrance however they have decided that about 45 minutes before the store closes they will take all the carts and put them a long ways away, so I have to walk to get them. I have mentioned this on many occasions they keep the gas the baskets for small clients right by the door until they're closed, but the people that buy larger baskets float, and that need the carts to be close at hand, have a difficulty, please solve.

Was in the area so dropped by since I heard good stuff about their matcha. Overall, I'll give it a…read more3.5, rounded up to a 4. I tried just the top matcha and found it was bitter and grassy - my first thought was either it's because of the milk or their matcha is not ceremonial. Upon mixing it, I found it a lot better - the banana is fragrant and the sweetness definitely helped the overall taste. The drink came fast, staffs were friendly, and it's a cute neighbourhood corner store that fits the area well. If I'm in the area next time I might give their strawberry shortcake matcha a try - but in general, I would not go specifically for their matcha.

If…read moreyou want something they don't carry brought in, there is a board at the front that you can add an item to and they will try to get that for you. I asked for parchment paper and it arrived by the following week. Great little local community store with excellent prices on organic produce. I've calculated it several times, for the same products I buy every week, at East West Market, if I bought them at SaveOn, it would cost me and average of $100 more at SaveOn. I like to save money when ever I can - why pay more? So I highly recommend dropping in to East West Market, a couple of doors south of Trendy Bucks on Main Street, Vancouver, BC and support your local businesses.
