Popped in to get a sandwich for lunch. The place was busy but not that busy. But busy enough, apparently, for the staff to be unable to keep track of which customer was next to be served. When I mentioned to staff that people who came in after me were served before me, all I got was a shrug in reply. I suggested that during busy periods a number system, like at Sanagan’s, might work well. The staff person literally sneered at me and said that the owner doesn’t like that system. Then she snickered and said, «That’s not going to be happening here.» The pretension! The sandwiches are tasty(though the staff ignore requests to put the hot sauce on the side) but not inexpensive at $ 11.30, and certainly not worth being sneered at for offering a suggestion.

Their steak&mushroom pies are the best in the world. Rest of the pies, meats and salads are good too. ‘Nuf said.

Just ate the little personal chicken, corn and bacon pot pie. Wow. Just wow. Was delicious. The new York strip loin I got was also perfect. Its not cheap. But when you are putting things in your body. Why cheap out? Great ingredients. Awesome store.

I’ve always been a fan of Cumbraes and dream about their steaks. Of course there is sticker shock that comes with the drool, but if you wanted aged beef, there is no better place to go. It’s like shopping for a Ferrari, even though Wal Mart sells great steaks there is only one Cumbraes, and now there’s one on Queen West, and that’s even better.

Customer service can vary but is generally good. When they first opened I found that they were clearing the products before the store closed which was frustrating and gave a sense of not wanting my business. But, haven’t noticed that lately. Their in-house convenience products are amazing. The Quebec butter has changed my life — I can’t eat anything else now.

If you’re lookin for meat or are a meat lover look no further! This place has it in spades! As you enter this store you get a hardcore who of of all kinds of meat– this is my kinda place. What is great is not only can you purchase meat solo, you can grab a deeeeelicious quality sandwich for on the run. Say no more!
