Review Summary

Avril Supermarché Santé is seen as a welcome Griffintown addition that blends groceries, natural products, and a bistro that serves alcoholic beverages, with healthy, hearty lunch options and a popular gelato counter. The selection includes high quality organic produce and pantry items at prices that many find competitive for organic goods, even though some weeks vary and stock can be inconsistent. The atmosphere is described as clean, inviting, and community oriented, with a pleasant terrace and cafe area that invite lingering. Staff are repeatedly praised for attentive, patient service and for taking time to explain products and help with loyalty accounts, contributing to a sense of close customer care that many reviewers value. Occasional concerns include pricing on the higher end relative to traditional supermarkets and occasional service hiccups that were reportedly addressed after feedback. Overall, the store is regarded as a solid option for sustainable groceries and ready to eat meals, with strong emphasis on quality, variety, and a friendly, helpful staff that make repeated visits appealing.

Thankfully Avril exists, but don't get your hopes too high because this isn't a Whole Foods. Produce is generally decent, & even if it isn't amazing it's still all organic & you pay as much (but often less) than what non-organic produce costs at other stores. But selection varies weekly & they're not always fully stocked.
Again, very difficult not to compare this to better health food stores in Canada & the US, but it is what it is & it's definitely a great option over IGA/Metro/Provigo & the likes of Adonis. (barf!)

There's room for improvement for sure, but I think ultimately what might stifle the selection is the need for French packaging. There's loads of much higher quality aisle goods that you'll never get to see in QC because...le Francais. It's a shame, but it isn't the fault of Avril.

Excellent service, & toujours agréable de s'y rendre - surtout quand il n'y a pas de rénovations bruyantes à proximité 😉.

Très bon choix de produits, avec des fruits & légumes à des prix bien plus raisonnables que dans les grandes chaînes parfois. J'y ai même trouvé de l'huile d'olive extra vierge biologique à 20 $ pour 750 ml en rabais.

J'y retourne souvent, que ce soit pour un café, un gelato, des plats prêts à emporter ou simplement pour faire le plein de fruits & légumes frais.

La porte côté rue Ottawafut réparée, elle fonctionne très bien maintenant, bravo !

Je suis cliente chez avril depuis plusieurs années, j'ai toujours eu un service impeccable mais en particulier celui à griffintown, cela grâce à Lilly qui offre un service incroyable en tout temps & à tous ses clients, avec sourire & professionnalisme.

The people behind the counter fully ignored me & took other people orders . May10-10:39am

'I hadn't checked the store's response to my review, but I recently went back to address my previous experience. Lily, a staff member, was incredibly professional & turned things around. I appreciate the effort they put into making things right, & I'm happy with the improved service. Thanks for listening & making a difference. I changed my ranking to support this great store.

Section produits naturels: la dame connaît très bien les produits & elle a prit le temps de bien m'expliquer chacun de ceux qui m'intéressaient. Compétente & sympathique en plus!
La caissière aussi était très sympa!

Beautifully laid out store with great selection & lots of healthy options to choose from. Thumbs up to François & Haylee for great customer service & being friendly & helpful! (One star missing because the prices are on the higher end. I understand though that the rent is surely on the high end too)

Everything I've tasted here so far has been delicious, the staff is always super friendly & customer service is top notch. Very nice bistro & good products, lots of variety. I come here on my lunch breaks & it's always a great experience.

Brand new Avril supermarket (organic store) in Griffintown with a nice terrace that you can get your breakfast/lunch/coffee & seat down to ear interior or in the terrace. I like smoked salmon bagel breakfast sanwitch & egg salad sandwitches for breakfast, & I really enjoy the chicken pesto sandwich here which is very fresh, tasty, & nice! Also Danoise, croissants, & Tartelette au citrouille are nice. Highly recommended!:)

Some worker came up to us & asked us to leave because of the Starbucks drink, saying it wasn't allowed & that we had to leave or throw it out something like that. Although I didn't buy that drink & have no control over it, I still left. I don't think I had to, but I was unsure. I understand the issue with Starbucks, but it's literally right beside Avril. Even though I've never bought Starbucks since the boycott, I still left. Like I said, I can't control what someone else buys. Also, Starbucks has no affiliation with Israel they've denied it several times. I don't buy from them, but that's something widely known. I still love Avril & go there often it's just that this was a bit of a weird experience.

I just love this store because to me it is an "all inclusive haute Gamme resort" where I find everything I need to be holistically beautiful :) food, water, beverages, healthy supplements, cosmetics & much more! Right at the heart of Griffintown!

I find that the store is nice & cosy, there is a variety of supplements, i tried there gelato, it was so sweet, idk why i thought it would be healthy since it s a health oriented store, but that was a cognitive biais of mine, there were not claming that any where.

Je demeure dans le quartier & je m'attendais à tout autre chose. Les prix sont très raisonnables sur la majorité des items & j'aime leur programme de fidélité!

Health food store in the heart of Griffintown. They have a promo on a coffee & muffin duo that is a very good deal. There is inside & outside tables to eat & they serve alcohol as well in the evening.
