Like most places these days, the grocery store is understaffed and overworked. Despite this though, the staff are always welcoming and helpful. It's nice to walk in to an establishment and see so many smiling faces- the manager, Adam, especially!
I can't imagine the kinds of customers you've encountered throughout this pandemic and I'm sorry for any and every negative interaction you've had. For what it's worth, I appreciate you all and how hard you work! It doesn't go unnoticed.
You also have the best chicken caesar wraps in town...popular favorite at my office!

We were thinking of getting hot dogs for snacks but we needed something to drink. Many of the stores were not open at 10am so we dropped by here to pick up some drinks. Everything is marked up at a premium for being in a tourist area but it was cheaper than Shoppers and Rexall. Also Shoppers was not very well stocked. Many of the items were out of stocks.
We picked some drinks here. They have the larges drink selections compared to many of the stores in the village.

May 15th, 5pm. It seems the female cahier (aussie accent ) makes it a practice to disrespectfully demand that customers walking in use the hand sanitizer. We did, of course. I had to wipe some off as there was far too much that came out if the dispenser. The cashier loudly barked at me again asking why I wiped it off. We turned right around and left, there are other options well within a short drive.
I get covid protocols and their importance , but loudly shaming customers is not ok. I have not had that happen at any other establishment this past year. Unfortunately we won't be returning.

Convenient, with friendly staff and reasonable selection of items, however this is not the place to stock your pantry from. Fresh meat and produce are limited, the dairy case is is small as is the bakery. It is set up for the tourist crowd with a selection of ready made or quick prep items and lots of snack foods which works for it's location and size. The real drawback to this and pretty much any other store in Whistler Village is you're paying a tourist premium for the convenience.
I will continue to shop here but as function of convenience, like going to 7-11 to buy milk because everything

We were staying at Whistler for a few days and wanted to buy some groceries to take back to our hotel room. This happened to be the closest grocery store. There was a large selection of daily essentials.
Prices were a bit higher than average because the store is located in a touristy area. There were discounts on certain items around the store that I saw for some hot food items and cookies. The cashier was friendly and efficient.

Conveniently located in the village. The hours are great. They were even open on Christmas Day. Everything you need for your stay in whistler. It’ll be good if your hotel has a kitchen so you could grab what you need from here. From cooking spices to fruits to vegetables. Literally a good sized grocery store.

Look, they have all the essentials (plus some) and a staff of young kids (cant believe I just said that, ugh) who are upbeat and just having fun. I'm all about that because when at whistler, everyone should just be having fun.
I'd just echo others who have mentioned the place is expensive. Or maybe outrageously expensive? It's true. Last night I spent CAD50 on some chips, ramen, counter staples, and drink mixers.
But the store is 4 min walk from my hotel, which, when it's -12*C, is worth an extra star in my opinion. Bottom line is, it's a grocery store! With every drunk

Canada is generally one of the most expensive places in the world for groceries. Almost everything besides Milk and Egg's is imported into the Country. The prices at this Grocery store are similar to rest of Canada, i always shop here and its convenient that it's right in the middle of a major tourist hub and prices are still the same as rest of Canada. I'm gonna guess the people complaining of prices are from the USA which has some of the lowest grocery prices in the World. Yes everything is twice the price in Canada, get over it and stop complaining. The whole world isn't

Although there is a pretty wide selection of foods that kept our chalet full during​ our trip, the prices of some specific items seemed suspiciously high. We bought a single bag of grapes, which came to a total of $15. The cashier did not inform us of the total until I has already tapped​ my card, as I assumed it would be reasonably priced. After simply asking if that price was correct, the cashier rudely responded "yeah, grapes are expensive". Overall, the condescending​ nature made the fact that the grapes were 5x a normal price that much worse

The prices of their goods are reasonable taken Whistler as a premium vacation destination on the west coast. It locates right in the center of the village, super convenient without parking hazel. 5 minutes walking distance to most of the hotels in village center. IGA offers lower prices on wilder range of selection, but you have to pay for parking and drive all the way to Day Park Lot for the night. Not recommended after a long day of hike on the alpine up there.

Whistler grocery store is located in whistler village right in the middle of the village. It is close to just about everywhere. It is a small supermarket, so if you need a lot of different items you may have to go further down to IGA. They have a small section of most items like produce and dairy. They even have some small already made food items to purchase. It is really just a store to get small items to add to your hotel kitchen. Don't expect to purchase everything to cook an entire meal here.
We went there mainly to restock on water and bananas. There are a lot of check outs and the staff

Reminds me of the grocery store in the heart of Waikiki yet the temperature difference is diametrically opposite. A good selection of everything you may need to stay fuelled up while spending your days heading down a mountain at high speeds. However pricing is a premium. Let's say not quite double what you would pay at your local grocery store but easily 1.5 - 1.75 the price. The mega plus however is that a BC liquor store is adjacent and you can stock up on all the booze to keep you content and numb the pain that the hot tub won't take away. Convenience is the factor here and it serves

This is a small grocery store in Whistler Village. They have a decent selection of produce, though their bananas were far from being ripe. My favorite finds at the Grocery Store were Hurraw Lip Balms, Tim Tams (from Australia), and Nature Path Hemp Oatmeal.
Their items were expensive, but hey you pay for convenience! It's probably cheaper to buy some groceries here to make some meals in your condo if you're staying for a week. Next door is a liquor store which is perfect! Bring some reusable bags to save on plastic. Those bags were wimpy.
The employees were nice and friendly. I always

Navigating the aisles of The Grocery Store is a bit like playing Donkey Kong in real life. Instead of jumping over barrels to advance platforms, our hero was forced to squeeze around parka-donned skiers to get to the next aisle. Progress was vastly impeded by employees stocking shelves in every other aisle. How exactly this store works when there's 6 people stocking shelves and 3 on the cash registers is not clear.
PROS:
- Conveniently located in Whistler Village.
CONS:
- Very narrow aisles.
- No shopping carts.
- Expensive prices, even for Whistler. $14 for a frozen pizza? $2.99 for
