visitation and review date: fri nov 11/22
rabba fine foods-oakville (RFFO) is located in a plaza, across from the sheridan college trafalgar campus. its biggest asset is providing a grocery style shopping service within a convenience store environment, 24/7.
RFFO also features a tim hortons, fresh produce, a sushi corner bar, in addition to salads, take out foods, and some hot foods. there is also a decent selection of grocery and household items.
i was coming off afternoon shift and got approved for a morning shift the next day, so i was in a pinch to get specific grocery items. RFFO was recommended to me by a co-worker, and thankfully i was able to get what i needed.
big shout-out to staff workers haleem and his co-worker on the night shift after 1130pm. both persons were warm and welcoming during my visit. đ
haleem did an excellent job keeping the line moving, when it got busy with an influx of students. i like that the store has at least 2 workers on the night shift, not just because it's busy, but also for the sake of safety.

I went to change it and to my surprise most of the donuts were green with mold or had spots. I went back and asked to just get a refund instead. This guy started being condescending and acting like he didn't know what I was talking about. By then I had given the moldy box back to him and he tried to keep it from me like I never bought this item or something. Eventually he gave me my refund and he slammed the change on my hand so hard that some coins fell out. This is unacceptable and the fact that this employee will go out of his way to berate customers over a moldy...
   Read moreIâve lived in the area for years and frequent this location daily. Iâve had lovely conversations with most of the staff, tonight at 11pm I was discriminated against and insulted in front of a store full of customers. Went in to buy a Gatorade for my sick wife, was watched intently and with a dirty look the entire time; and when I went up to pay, after asked, âdid you think I was going to steal?â
âYes, you look like a thiefâ.
The audacity and nerve of this human being to insult a customer this way is absolutely astonishing and absurd. This individual has no business being around the public. Youâre only as good as your weakest link. 1 star...
