If I could give this store a MINUS (-) ZERO I would. I've shopped at this Sobeys for as long as I live in Brampton ( over 15 years).
My husband and I recently formed a Non-Profit and last minute I had a request from Salvation Army shelter for food donations /dinner for Thanksgiving (I received the request about 230 pm 10/10).
Since Sobeys was the closest grocery store (and dinner at the shelter started at 5p.m), I decided to shop there so I would not be late with the dinner donations.
I arrived at Sobeys about 430 pm and noticed the rotisserie chickens were $11.99.each. We are on a limited budget so I asked the store manager whether or not she could match the price as the neighboring Food Basic and Metro who was selling for $8.99. I also explained the chickens etc was for the Salvation Army shelter and introduce myself as Co-Founder of the organization (which I did via letter a few weeks ago). She said unfortunately they were not able to do so. I decided not to bother buying the rotisseries as they were outside our budget. I left the store feeling so heartbroken: Going to the neighboring store would delay dinner for the shelter residences 2.Thanksgiving is broken in two parts "Thanks" and "Giving". The fact such a prominent grocery store in the community has no idea what it meant to GIVE back to the underprevilidged at such a urgency
Thank GOD I called Metro, Osiris, employee from the Meat dept said I should come in the store he only found 5 of the rotisseries. However, upon arrival, he surprised me and it would so happen had enough rotisserie put aside ( enough to feed all 50 residences), and most importantly I purchased the chickens for $8.99, Metro at Sandlewood and Kennedy will be getting more of my business!!!!!!!!!You truly understand the true meaning of Thanksgiving and COMMUNITY, THANK...
Read moreExtremely Disappointed with This Sobeys Location
I have been a loyal customer at this Sobeys location for years, but my recent experiences have been nothing short of unacceptable. It is painfully evident that the staff here treat customers differently based on their ethnicity. Non-Caucasian customers are frequently ignored, overlooked, and treated with a dismissive attitude, as if we don’t deserve the same level of respect as others.
This behavior is not only unprofessional but also blatantly discriminatory. It has become so pervasive that I can no longer shop here. Businesses like Sobeys should strive to create a welcoming environment for everyone, regardless of their background, but this location has completely failed in that regard.
If this treatment continues, it is only a matter of time before the community loses trust in this establishment. Sobeys needs to address this issue immediately by investigating the behavior at this location, holding staff accountable, and implementing diversity and inclusion training to ensure that no one else has to experience this appalling treatment.
Discrimination has no place in any business, and I hope Sobeys takes the necessary steps to rectify...

Sobeys Mayfield is a clean, well-organized grocery store that makes shopping easy and enjoyable. The produce section is always fresh and neatly stocked, offering a great variety of fruits and vegetables. The bakery has an excellent selection of fresh breads, pastries, and cakes, while the deli and cooked meal options make it convenient to grab something quick and tasty. Ready-to-make meals are also a nice touch for busy weeknights.
The meat and seafood counters are well-presented, and the staff there are knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations. The store layout is spacious, with wide aisles that make browsing comfortable, and items are generally easy to find.
Prices are comparable to other Sobeys locations sometimes a bit higher than discount chains, but the quality and consistency make up for it.
