Kootenay Co-op Grocery Store
Grocery store
😐 A unique shopping experience with a good selection of goods. But bring lots of $$$ as it's easily the most expensive grocery store in the area. Lots of overpriced merchandise for those with piles of disposable income.

Walmart
Department store
😠 Do not trust the in store advertised prices they are often wrong the staff will wait until you checkout then approach you "explaining" YOUR mistake using their barcode. You either pay more or stand in line to get refunded. Don't bother calling customer service they direct you to an email addres...

Ellison's Market
General store
👍👍 As someone operating in the organics and ethical sector, Ellison offers the best organic quality produce in town. These stores are rare and difficult to find. Without a doubt this is the grocery store you stock up quality food on.

Chahko Mika Mall
Shopping mall
😠 The cleanliness in the mall could be a lot better. I have been going to that mall for over 15 years now (some people much longer) and I can probably guarantee that the covers on the couches have never been washed/cleaned. The arm wrests look as if drinks have been spilt on. Maybe it’s time for an up...

Cowan Office Supplies Ltd

👍👍 Today I purchased two sets of hake brushes for water color painting. Because I live in Crawford Bay, I had planned on ordering some from Amazon but I decided to check Cowan's in Nelson. These exact same brushes would have cost me $66 on Amazon. I got them for $16 in Cowan's.This is a great store for...

Shoes for the Soul
Shoe store
😐 The shoes……. Oh the shoes! I love all of the beautiful, unique styles! There were so many choices that I just had to walk around slowly, initially. I picked out some shoes to try on and I tried to find someone to help me. Sadly, I was made to feel like I was an imposition. I tried on the one pair an...

Gaia Rising Metaphysical and New Age Shop
Metaphysical supply store
🫤 Didn’t love this store. Many of these products where quite overpriced and the staff where a little rude. I also don’t enjoy how they responded to some other more critical reviews, it is very unprofessional and definitely dropped them down a star (my original rating was 3). I also found a few fake c...
