IGA is never my first choice to shop. I would rather go to the butcher, Italian deli and produce market up on Main and King Edward but sometimes its just more convenient to go to one store. Especially if you want to go shopping at night or need staples, this isn't a bad choice.

Like all food in Vancouver, prices are fairly high but the selection is pretty good. Lineups are always longer after work from 5-7pm and weekend afternoons so definitely best to avoid those times (like everywhere else).
