I checked out Metro Liquor yesterday and was not impressed. Their beer selection is small. My brother wanted to get 6
bottles of beer, but they only had one choice. I bought a cheap brand of Irish Cream liqueur (Blarney's - under $20) but got charged for a Bailey's (over $30) until I pointed out the error. It is certainly not as nice as the Sobey's Liquor locations.
Not even close IMO.
The buildings where Popeye's and Boston Pizza will be going haven't even begun construction. McD's is coming along but they still have some windows to install and they need to complete the interior, which from what I could see, is nowhere near completion (if it has been started at all). Save On Foods is nicer than the south location, but then this store was designed as a SOF, whereas the south store was a former CDN Tire that had been once expanded. Shoppers is coming along but it could be a couple of months before it opens (maybe less).
As per the site plan, there will be six more restaurants/food establishments, besides the Popeye's and BP. One of these will be Sushi Lounge. The four restaurants along the east side of the development will back onto a 'water feature' (pond? mosquito farm?)
