Edit: the quality of the store has increased exponentially over a year since I've written this my last review in all areas that I was concerned about thank you

Decent store pretty solid food but it's like nobody in this store even knows the products they are selling.

Many times I come n ask what's this brand. Whats in this ingredients wise etc. & I get a lot of'I don't know. I think it's this. I'm not sure.' Answers

Especially around the Sandwich bar a lot of incompetence behind there

There's a few people that work behind there when I see them I say thank God they're working today & then there's a few other others when I see working & I say oh God no lmao.

Overall decent store just wish employees knew more about there products

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.

Brand new Avril right in the heart of Griffintown. Smaller in size compared to some other locations. Quality of food is good, & the seating section is very nice & cute.
