We always stop here on our way to the cottage to get groceries (and desserts!) They sell baked goods and breads from well-known Kingston establishments like Card's Bakery and Pan Chancho, which is very convenient. They also have a great selection of fresh produce and carry seasonal local produce.

Stopped in to pick up some green beans. I knew it was the last day of the sale but I did not expect…read morea display of rotten beans. They were disgusting. There were wooden crates in front of the display empty except for the top one which had the same rotten beans in it. I saw what I thought was an employee from the produce section and I said "your beans are rotten." His reply was " a lot of them in there are". Why would a store like Farm Boy dish up the last of their rotten beans instead of discarding them. I was very disappointed that a store that prides itself on its produce would actually charge for rotten beans let alone expect people to buy them.

Came in here for some hot food and some drinks.

I will definitely return if I'm ever around there.

This grocery store is very expensive. Whatever you buy at this Foodland, you know you are paying…read moretop dollar or more for it. If you have to shop at this grocery store, just buy what is on sale. It is more like a convenience store with it's high prices. If you have a bigger grocery order, you would be better to drive East to No Frills or Food Basics. With Foodland's high prices, you would think this was the only store 500 miles back in the bush. It is the only grocery store in Amherstview. It is too bad this grocery store is so expensive because there are a lot of people on welfare and disability who reside in Amherstview that have no transportation. A lot of those people must have to rely on the food bank to supplement their groceries if they can only shop at Foodland.

This little grocery store has all the fixings for a student version of a gourmet dinner. What do I…read moremean by student gourmet? Well, they have all the regular student fare (asian noodles, bulk foods like trail mix and chocolate covered peanuts), but also supply a great selection of more desirable goods like Pig & Olive meats, fresh sushi (to-go) and a great supply of fresh veggies, fruits, eggs, cheeses and dairy products. Thus, you feel a bit more like a grown up when you dine on items from Grocery Checkout! Prices are comparable to Metro, I think, so they aren't gouging students, who must be their primary audience. But, it's not a bargain either - so if you are looking for discount, you better keep on walking down to Food Basics. What this place does do is provide snacks, meals and grocery items in a central location that is perfect for students and staff of Queen's. Staff are friendly, and the layout is compact but well-kept.

Just finished the greek pasta salad. While the flavour was overall good I've never had pasta that…read morewas this wet. If the pasta was allowed time to dry it was fine, however not my favourite pre-made item I've had from this grocery store. Additionally, my friend just finished the kale pesto walnut salad. Neither of us thought the addition of kale to pesto was a great one however we thought we would check it out! The promise of walnuts was not fulfilled which seemed strange considering that the "walnuts" was included in the name. Eventually we decided to mix the excess oil from the greek pasta salad with the kale pesto walnut salad. While this helped the kale pesto salad be a bit more moist, it is clear that this combination was not what grocery checkout intended.
