    Very disappointed with the customer service at Bulk Barn. I purchased what I believed were mixed salted and unsalted peanuts. But they put Cajun spicy peanuts in salted container by mistake. After reaching home, I discovered they were actually spicy, which was not what I intended to buy. When I returned to the store to explain the situation, Employee named Anj, was very rude and offensive in language. I expected understanding and assistance. Instead, I felt that my concern was dismissed, and the staff member I spoke with was unwilling to acknowledge that there may have been confusion regarding the product. Rather than helping to resolve the issue, the responsibility was placed entirely on me as the customer. Mistakes can happen by the staff, but good customer service is about listening to customers and handling concerns respectfully. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling frustrated and disappointed. I hope Bulk Barn will focus more on customer satisfaction and better support customers when issues arise.

    Interesting place to shop. You get a bit of everything. I like the fact that they are pretty transparent about the ingredients. Everything is mentioned if you closely look at it. Nice place, no interference, you can take your own time, no rush and the staff is good. For those who don't know Bulk Barn is a place where you can shop by weight. Expensive than the conventional stores but here you can buy as little as you like. They have nuts, snacks, spices, nut butters, grains, candies etc.

    I gave a 1 only because the staff was very friendly and followed the management’s instructions responsibly. I bought mixed nuts of different kinds in this store. And I’m glad I decided to try them before giving them to my child. The almonds were rancid, smelly, and old. In the photo you can even see traces/holes from worms. While we were in the store, I noticed a young man transferring breakfast cereal from one box to another. And why? Because they mix old cereal with the new one. This is simply outrageous.

    I wouldn’t even give 1 star but it is the only way to access writing a review. I too will never return to this store. We frequently buy sourdough flour and yeast there for our Black and Decker bread maker and we had the occasion where the bread did not rise. My wife bakes all the time and we have never experienced this before. So we thought perhaps a mistake on our part on the portions and we carefully mixed up another batch. Same result. Would not rise. At this point we researched all the possibilities for this type failure and came up with my first guess : old yeast which was fresh, bought at that store and had worked on the previous loaf of bread. The next possibility Google said which I was surprised was old flour. So because we also had some plain white flour for bread we thought we’ll try this with the same yeast and it rose and baked a beautiful loaf. That meant the sour dough flour was old. The interesting thing about this whole event is that the sour dough bin had been almost empty but we did get enough to fill 1 bag which makes 3 loafs. My guess is they dumped the new flour on top of the remaining old flour. When I phoned to speak to the manager speaking quite diplomatically I might add, I could not get a word in edgewise. She just walled up and bilingerently talked over me and would not even listen to the turn of events. I told her she would do better to listen, mentioned she wouldn’t and wished her good day. Then I began to read the reviews. O M G. I had called to suggest a possibility so we could continue shopping there but if that is the treatment coming from management one is to expect if you do have a problem, no Thankyou. Life is too short. We do purchase other items at that store which I’m sure most people do but. We have decided to spend our money in a more deserving store. Best Regards Floyd. Kornigy

    They have a huge variety of things to eat. If you like candy if you like chocolate. If you like any kind of nuts, this is the place to go

    I like the Bulk Barn, they have a great selection of bulk foods. It's always clean and bright. The staff are knowledgeable if I have any questions. And there's always a smile to be had when you're paying for your items.

    Prices are way to high for being a bulk store, one can go on amazon and have stuff shipped for cheaper. As well as go to other stores where the iteam has packaging from the company, Bulk stores are supposed to be cheaper cause theres no packaging involed not at this store

    Very clean, friendly knowledgeable staff. Stock levels are quite good. A wide range of bulk items which are good quality, which shows products have a good turnaround.

  • Jonathan Bryson

    Wow! Lots of great stuff! Essentially, if it can be bought in bulk they likely have it. Some of the prices for non-dairy items are pricey, but the bulk prices make up for it. Lots of parking and easy to get to. Worth stopping snd shopping st even if its for just a couple of items.
