Oceans Fresh Food Market

like the other location, awesome selection of groceries and awesome hot plate selection to choose from, with daily specials.
parking lot is a nightmare with what was the bus terminal at the time (not sure if thats the case now)
quite possibly the best part of shoppers world is this grocery store.
always busy with people and they always have stock

The parking lot here is a nightmare, but it’s not really their fault, I guess. It’s the mall’s parking, after all!
Going inside though, it has its own unique way of organizing things, but once you get the hang of it, it’s no biggie. Only a modest selection of dairy products, but so, so, so much produce and fresh meat and fish. Indeed, some people might not appreciate the more chaotic atmosphere (as compared to, say, Fortinos), but I love how much fresh stuff I can get, and at great prices. The registers are busy, but usually fully staffed, so I can’t complain there.
Go check this out if you’ve never been. You’re in for fresh food delight!
Oh – and they have a hot table with prepared food, which is also tasty business, but I rarely use it.

Oceans is a massive asian supermarket. Pricing is always excellent, though parking and line ups at the till can be annoying (They are busy). My biggest draw is the selection of fresh asian produce, and seafood. Next to that is the chinese take out they have. For 6.99 you get rice or noodles, with two items and a soup. It’s enough to feed two people easily. And the quality is great. If you wait till 7pm, you can also get items discounted. The locations are generally pretty clean, though I would say Top prize for cleanliness would have to go to Ample (another Asian grocery store)

I really really like the Oceans Fresh Food Market… in Mississauga. This particular location pales in comparison. Here’s why:
1. It’s stinkier — one of the reasons I love the one in Mississauga (Hurontario) is because it’s so very clean, compared to all the other Asian Supermarkets. The one in Brampton, not so much. It stinks of fish and meat in most of the sections.
2. It’s smaller — I could be wrong, but the one in Mississauga appears way bigger and has a better selection.
3. It’s more expensive — here’s the weird thing. I’ve compared prices, and this one’s definitely pricier than the one in Mississauga. Grapes were priced sky high, dumplings that are usually 6/​$ 10 in the Sauga location are 5/​$ 10 here. Why should prices be different in the first place?!
4. Less of a selection
5. Cluttered, less organized
6. EOD sushi deals start at $ 2.99 at this location, at $ 1.99 at the Sauga location
7. Way more EOD deals at the Sauga location
8. Bigger deli at the Sauga location
I guess, to sum it up, skip this one and go visit the one in Mississauga. It’s about a 15 minute drive from this location.

Worst customer service ever. Most employees do not speak english. I approached one of the lady’s and she literally screamed «i don’t know» and walked away. i was VERY frustrated and I’m not the one to be one of those aggravating customers. However, the supermarket itself is very cheap and affordable.

Good selection and competitive prices but I must rate them low because Service at the hot food table is poor. Today I had to caution one of their servers for picking her nose. It’s disgusting and indicates lack of training and hygiene standards.

Overall I would give oceans 3 stars

The food here is cheap greasy and delicious. If you have a craving for Greasy Chinese food and don’t mind feelings bad about yourself after come here. I think it’s just as good as a manchuwok but for less and bigger portions. The food definitely is geared towards a western palate.

As a grocery store Oceans is worth 5 stars, their vegetables and fresh and inexpensive, and so is their chicken. There’s always a lot of people in there, but the cashiers are quick so the checkout lineups are never very long.
As a Chinese food restaurant I’d say they’re worth 3 or 4 stars depending on what you get. The portion sizes are large, and the prices cheap. Their dumplings are incredible, their General Tao Chicken is pretty good, but their Black Pepper Steak needs some black pepper and hot sauce added to it when you get home.

I’ve yet to hit the sweet spot when it comes to Chinese food in this area, but I have to admit that Oceans serves up dishes comparable to some of the average Chinese food joints on Spadina downtown. I’ve been here for dining in and take out with the family, the food is good enough and they have a solid option of dishes to choose from.
I’ve only once walked around the aisles here and the supermarket section is most definitely well stocked up with anything Chinese related. And that’s one of the main reasons this spot gets 4 stars over the 3 I was initially going to give it.
It’s most definitely affordable and the quality you get in return could… let’s just say could be worse. If you want a good spot for quick take out I’d go for Oceans, their buffet is average, actually tastier than the more prominent Mandarin (with far fewer options though) but more unhealthy too I believe.
Staff have been more quiet than friendly, but I’m not go ing to fault them for that.

Ocean’s Fresh Food Market is located inside Shoppers World Brampton. Shoppers World Brampton is a really sad Mall… but I am glad we are here at Ocean’s instead of walking around the Mall.
Personally I think that Oceans is the best «Chinese» grocery store I have visited as yet. At this location, Ocean’s had rebranded themselves as more than an Asian supermarket. Talking about selections!
You can find groceries from China, India, Middle East, Vietnam, Philippines, Mexico, Caribbean and more under one roof! There are a lot of fresh chilli and all different brands of hot sauce that makes me go WOW!
Just double check the expiry date before buying. Not good if the hot chocolate from Mexico still on the shelf with an expiry date of ⁰⁶⁄₂₀₁₀!
