My small town favorite grocery store. Always good prices,best bennanas around.The local garlic is fantastic. They've always got local products when they can. Hugs and smiles to AG foods foods
- Audrey Lanoue
Ag foods is a great store and always have what we need My husband goes in 2-3 times a day Great service Keep it up Audrey and Ron Lanoue Thanks
- Owen
Decent store, The fresh bread tastes great, there are weekly deals to keep food affordable and the staff has bin very friendly.
- Tobias Vyseri
Owner is always courteous and friendly, the staff generally has a good attitude and the store is more well-stocked than you'd expect from a small town grocery store. Fruits and vegetables are also competitively priced when compared to Kamloops.
- Tom Schoen, mapping & reviews
Great small-town grocery store providing everything you could need. Friendly staff, well stocked and clean store environment. I'm stopping by here regularly, when my work brings me to the area.
- Wanda Krohn
I went into buy a few groceries and there were no "Canadian Product" "signs. I asked if they were going to put them up. rudely, told NO, that's it NO. Anyway am shopping in Kamloops where most stores are making it easier for us, instead of crowding the aisles reading labels.
- Michelle Mccready
Great produce, meats, and bakery goods. Can be a little pricey but also has great specials and an amazing selection for a small town grocery store. They also bring in vegan items, local meat and produce and unusual items you wouldn't expect - like beef bacon!
- Vai King
Back when covid was around, there were employees threatening violence to my dad and I for being medically exempt. They threatened to assault us if we didn't leave and even followed us out into the parking lot and continued to threaten us... I don't recommend going here, these people are sellouts to the canadian people, they don't deserve our money. I'm deeply ashamed of what they did. Screaming and freaking out, calling us names infront of customers, scaring everyone into segregating us. All because we needed groceries??? And we lived 45 minutes out of town! Disgraceful place. Don't bother

The Bakery at AG Foods provided amazing donuts for our wedding. They were so helpful and accommodating with our requests and provided such an excellent product that all of our guests loved. Excellent customer service and care provided.

Driving from Vancouver to Edmonton, we found this little gem when looking for a close grocery store to the Pinegrove RV camping site we were staying in. Rather then spending over 35 minutes to drive into Kamloops, this store offered us a …

Not a chance will I ever spend or support anything this guy does. He told me to drive to Kamloops to do my shopping when I told him I was new to the area. I was mask exempt and my daughters type 1 that I had to personally shop for her. He …

New to the area and really impressed with the local supermarket. When you walk in you are greeted with a waft of fresh bread. Their unsliced white loaf for $1.80 is crazy good. Nice looking store, has everything I need for a local.
- Rodin Dzinker
I agree with most reviewers in that AG Foods has the broad selection you'd expect at a larger supermarket (deli, meats, bakery, produce, etc) with prices that are fair and quality that is good. Customer service has always been excellent when I've shopped there.
- Stan Long
Good service and pleasant staff. We appreciate the amount of gluten free products and the fresh produce. We buy sandwiches made in the store that are tasty.
- Sharon McWatters
It's an Atypical rural country grocery store. Shelves are mostly stocked, and it's clean. Some but not all covid rules are followed. A little short staffed but staff still try to maintain a pleasant facade.and are polite.

Small town groceries. Good bakery :) Prices higher than in the city,as is the way. …
- Mikaela Palmer
What an absolute shame of owners and some staff! I will NEVER SUPPORT YOUR STORE AGAIN! If your wanting to go maskless don't bother giving them your money they will only SHAME YOU OUT OF THE STORE. This is only some of the people willing to shame you out of the store. What nasty disgraceful human beings!!!!!!
- Made To Order

- Tori Steele
I was going to stop in but now that I see the way this owner and staff have treated more than one person who had mask exemptions I’m disgusted.. yelling at people and shaming them ? Screaming at my friend? I would take that package that was given to you seriously.
- Socially Soggy
Terrible! Over priced! Produce it rotten half the time. Should be ashamed of the prices. Ashamed of the lack of care at that store. I cringe every time I shop there
