Great Store Great Services and Price's, I give it 5 Stars for the Great Service and Excellent Staff

Homeless people sit at the front of the store almost daily, had confrontation with a junky that was abusing his partner in the store. He come up to me while at the counter and said looks like you got something to say, hard not to look over when you see dramatic junkys in the store. Then proceeded to wait out the front of the store for me. Honestly I won’t be going back to the store. I was just on my lunch break don’t need that stuff!

Way too many things unnecessarily wrapped in plastic like broccoli and broccoli and cauliflower combos. Some of which was on clearance from not being bought. It’s excessive and it would be lovely to see a local store show more care for the environment.

I love this place but I’m afraid to say that the meat and some packaged goods are not fit for consumption. Either meat smelling off on numerous occasions or pizzas being sold out of date with no notification. I hope the standards can be lifted! I’m happy to pay a little extra for the SIMS experience but not at the expense of my stomach.

Decent sized IGA, did enter liquor ship, also tattslotto agent. Good selection of breads & meat deli.

Excellent supermarket with lots of bougie things and great meat
The fruit and veg is always the best quality too

A little on the pricey side, but nevertheless very convenient.

Edit 8 May '22: dropped from 4 star down to three star due to following:

The ball has been well and truly dropped with the availability of fresh bread rolls!

The supply used to be excellent, now I could only rate the bread roll supply as very basic, often only providing a choice of two varieties of bread roll.

Additionally I've asked for the supermarket (on two separate find any chocolate milk available.occasions) to stock chocolate milk in 2lt variety, I seldom.

There is no formal feedback system available so one can request the stocking of items, or to provide constructive criticism.

Really hate going here unless I have to. Checkout staff couldn’t be slower and more interested in chatting amongst themselves than serving customers! And to top everything off prices are ridiculous and selection is terrible.

Feel of a country supermarket, same staff for years, incredible selection of cheese and gourmet European products although really high prices, still if you want something special go here! 1 star off just because is that little bit too pricey to have for all my shopping

Love this store, they have a great range of products and great bargains on market day, good service too. I was after saganaki cheese, l tried all the big supermarkets and my butcher who usually has it, couldn't get it anywhere.except IGA Footscray, thanx IGA you made my Easter

Bought a bunch of roses from the florist section - only two were actually decent with the rest falling apart/ rotten at the base. Recommend you don't buy flowers here. Otherwise the groceries are generally good.

A lovely barista went above and beyond for me today wish I knew her name she even called me back to advise that a product i was looking for was not available.this is the type of service that keeps you coming back 10+ stars

Good selection of gourmet foods and spices. Staff are not overly friendly. Also they have disabled parking with no access ramp. You would have to go down the road to go up to the path. Not very safe

Miss the old sims. Now it is so expensive, especially for ‘fresh’ produce. It is simply just bad quality for an expensive price and always has a higher price for the same item as coles for basic things like cleaning products or cereals etc. The staff were nice though and they do have things other supermarkets don’t, but doesn’t meet my needs for just the usual weekly shop. Sorry IGA Footscray, wish it was different.

I really enjoy shopping here! Sure, some things cost a little more, but I save money because I'm not tempted to buy a whole lot of stuff I don't need! The atmosphere of a smaller sized locally owned business is so much warmer and relaxed. The staff are always friendly and helpful, and provide great customer service.
Why run the gauntlet of shopping centres, and big supermarkets, when you can support local businesses!

I only recently went to this IGA after a multi- year hiatus. This place is awesome, newly renovated and full of uniwue- hard to find products.

Awesome refit in this supermarket it's a shame that MOST of the staff know how to follow covid protocols and others have to be reminded.
The deli is sensational and the carvery is amazing for dinner on the run.
