TL;DR/The Short Version: Health Food store. Good prices, comparatively speaking. Good selection of…read moreproducts. The Long Version: I've been a fan of Healthy Planet since they opened their first Ottawa location at Trainyards. They subsequently opened a second location in the Kanata Centrum and now this location on Merivale is their third in Ottawa. It's the space that used to be a Swiss Chalet but stood vacant for quite some time. They just had their grand opening late November 2024. Healthy Planet is a health food store. They sell lots of organic foods and environmentally friendly cleaners, skincare, cosmetics, etc. They also have a vast selection of protein powders and supplements. Their prices are generally lower than other Health Food stores in Ottawa such as Kardish and Natural Food Pantry. The space is large, brightly lit and well organized. In terms of cosmetics and skincare products, their selection is greater than the location at Trainyards. Otherwise, I'd say the selection is the same. Customer service was good in that while I was wondering around, one of the employees asked me if I needed help finding something, which I didn't, so they went back to what they were doing. One thing that could have been improved is that the cash register that cashed me out had a defective point-of-sale machine, or defective wires or something because it froze during my transaction and I had to stand around and wait. The cashier said that it wasn't the first time it happened, it happened earlier that day. Other registers were fine, he said it was only his register. There were some registers that were not being used. Management should have shut down that register, moved the cashier to another register and fixed the problem. Anyway, I went shortly after their first day of opening, so I guess I'll give them time to iron out the wrinkles. Lots of free parking in the shared plaza parking lot. (216)

Both deserve a high 5. Super helpful. I've made a couple of purchases in 2 weeks, will be back again next week for another pair of Uggs I have on hold. Bought protective spray too, glad they reminded me as I was out! They remembered me as I gave them a nice review on line when the email survey came thru... I've been so busy I had forgotten I had filled it out. Make sure you give them an email address as I already have accumulated points for $ off my next purchase.

Now, granted, the problem was intermittent so it's understandable they would have missed it during the checkup process. But, they refused to pickup the fridge without charging me 200 bucks! Imagine that. You sold me a broken machine and don't have the decency to recognize you screwed up and make it right by at least picking it up without pain. I ended up buy a regular fridge from home Depot which cost less and was delivered for free right into my kitchen.

I love their climbing selection. They even have ice picks. I would say definitely talk to their staff if you have questions. They are knowledgeable and helpful.

Arrive at the store and they won't sell the bike to us because it hasn't been "safetied", and the bike tech isn't in until the next day... what a joke. Can we sign a waver, no. Staff refuses to help, and explains that safeties are only done at point of sale not before, because it might sit in the store... We were told we could order the bike and have it shipped to us, but we would have to assemble it. We asked who would "safety" it then? They reply it doesn't need one... so can we just buy the f***ing bike I ordered. Place it full of asshats. Re-routed our trip to pick up on the return and didn't even get the book or tag it was supposed to come with.... But apparently it's been "safetied". If you can avoid these assholes do so.
