Grocery Stores in Ottawa, ON

Faircart lists 44 grocery stores in Ottawa, ON, across 7 banners: Metro, Food Basics, FreshCo, Real Canadian Superstore, Sobeys, Costco and Your Independent Grocer. 39 of them come from the retailer's own store locator; 5 come from OpenStreetMap, where volunteers map stores whose chains do not publish a readable list. Nothing here is typed in by hand. Metro has the most Ottawa locations we can confirm (18 of 44). These stores sit in 25 different postal areas (K1B, K1C, K1E, K1G, K1J, K1L, and more). Ottawa's grocery banners here are run by Metro Inc., Empire Company Limited, Loblaw Companies Limited and Costco Wholesale Canada Ltd., and 39 of the 44 stores we list are covered by Faircart's live price tracking.

5 of these 44 locations come from OpenStreetMap — verify before you drive. Loblaw, Walmart, Costco, Super C and Adonis do not publish a store list we can read, so those addresses are contributed by volunteers. They are accurate in aggregate, but any single listing may be out of date. Rows from a chain's own locator are marked below.

  • Source split: 39 of these 44 Ottawa listings (89%) came from a chain's own store locator. The other 5 came from OpenStreetMap contributors, because Loblaw, Walmart, Costco, Super C and Adonis do not publish a store list we can read. Community listings are accurate in aggregate but any single one may be out of date.
  • Concentration: 29 of the 44 Ottawa stores we list (66%) are operated by a single company, Metro Inc..
  • Not listed on this page: Farm Boy, Longo’s and Chalo! FreshCo. We could not read their store lists from a public source on our last harvest, so Ottawa shoppers should assume there are more stores here than we show.

Grocery prices in Ottawa

Faircart does not have Ottawa-specific prices, and we are not going to imply that we do. Our price observations are collected from each banner's online storefront for one region, so they describe the banner, not the individual store on your street.

Of the banners with confirmed Ottawa locations, we do track live prices for Metro, Food Basics, FreshCo, Sobeys. You can run your own shopping list against those banners and see which basket comes out lowest — only baskets that contain every item you asked for are ranked.

Price matching at Ottawa banners

Metro

No price-match policy

As of September 4, 2026, Metro publishes no price-match policy. We checked the Metro Help Centre, the weekly flyer, the terms and conditions, and the Moi loyalty programme terms on metro.ca, and none of them describes a customer-initiated price match against a competitor's advertised price. This is a finding about Metro' published material, not a claim about what an individual store manager will do at the till.

FreshCo

Competitor price match

If one of a short list of discount competitors advertises an identical item cheaper in its current flyer, FreshCo sells it to you for 1¢ less. The guarantee is limited to up to four named discount competitors in your store's trade area, current-flyer proof only, and a cap of four units.

Real Canadian Superstore

Competitor price match

For an in-store ad match, show an official current print or digital ad from an eligible major competitor in the store's local trade area. The product must be identical in brand, size and attributes, and the limit is four units. Ontario online customers can request an eligible ad match after delivery through the Help Centre; that online process is not offered nationally.

Sobeys

Limited points guarantee

Sobeys' published "Verified Prices" program — offered in Atlantic Canada (NS, NB, NL, PEI) for a limited time — automatically credits the difference in Scene+ points when a flyer item Sobeys has marked with the "Verified Prices" icon is cheaper at one of its pre-selected brick-and-mortar competitors. The official process is a points guarantee on items Sobeys selects, not a customer-triggered price reduction using a competitor flyer at checkout.

What this page is missing

A directory that hides its gaps is an advertisement. These banners operate in Canada and are not listed above, because on our last harvest we could not read their store lists from a public source. Assume Ottawa has more grocery stores than this page shows.

  • Farm BoyEmpire Company LimitedFarm Boy runs a separate storefront platform and is absent from the Empire store index we read, so we cannot list its locations.
  • Longo’sEmpire Company LimitedLongo’s runs a separate storefront platform and is absent from the Empire store index we read, so we cannot list its locations.
  • Chalo! FreshCoEmpire Company LimitedChalo! FreshCo is not distinguished as its own banner in the Empire store index we read, so we cannot list its locations separately.
