This place offers such a grand variety of products : Grocery, Lunch, Dinner, Snack, etc. It's clean, nice looking and the staff is amazingly nice.
I love the branding and what they did with this place. It's a little bit pricy, but worth it.
Quality is the first word that comes in my mind when I think of Fou d'Ici. -
Review from Khanh L.
I live extremely close by :)
I only come here when I'm stuck and forgot to buy something as the prices are a bit higher, yet still reasonable. I would pay the premium for the convenience.
It is a unique grocery that is rarely seen in mtl, it has a very large selection of obscure and hard to find items. They do source from all around town and in the province... so instead of going all over town to find esoteric spices and ingredients come here. few examples they have spices from Jean-talon market, macarons from Point G, bread from the famous bakery in boucherville, the list goes on and on, lobster bisque in a can!!! yo hold up what?
One time, I was looking for gelatin sheets, which they did not sell, but the staff went into the pastry kitchen and took out a few to sell to me, now if that's not service I don't know what is. this place is just cool, it's not big but it has everything from fresh produce to butchery, pastry, cheese and deli counter. Organic, gluten free you name it they have it. Come here if you're looking for higher quality ingredients or stuff that's a bit more artisanal... you'll find it, if not they can always find you something in the kitchens hahaha
it's a fine grocery store, for fussy items that you wouldn't find in a regular grocery, even the frozen food section is particular, they even have tourtiere du Lac St-Jean!!! try to find that at metro!!
When I'm cooking for two and I want to impress I come here, there's always something that will make people talk... the meat is superb!! fresh thick bacon!!!
they even have these degustations/classes (rsvp required) where you showcase something, my friend went to one and she liked it...
All in all, very high quality and the convenience of having stuff from all over the place gathered here for you to pick out, cool no? would be 5 stars but high prices loses them one star :) finally our own little dean and deluca just like they have in NYC, but with local flair I like it very much... -

Fou d'Ici is a new downtown épicerie made to highlight the best in locally-produced foods -- hence the "ici." With a wide selection of different foods from around the Montréal area, Fou d'Ici has strong points in their selection of meats, cheeses and prêt-à-manger items. The takeout looks perfectly suited for a tasty downtown lunch on-the-go, and the boucherie has delicious meat selections for any taste. They have delicious thick-cut bacon, as well as plenty of yummy choices already prepared -- there is a confit jarret d'agneau there that I am dying to try. There is also a full poissonnerie, a decent selection of cheeses, a boulangerie counter, and a large tea shelf with plenty of good blends. And, of course, the fruits and vegetables to provide the bases for your weekly cooking.
With so many tasty local items in store, Fou d'Ici does an excellent job of showing what the Montréal region has to offer. It is perfect for the occasional lunch or snack, and well suited to be your weekly grocery stop as well. Give it a look, you won't be disappointed! -

This is a wonderful addition to the Montreal downtown scene with an intelligent selection of locally sourced products. Great food to take out or eat in-store.
