If there’s ever a problem with an item, I suggest people talk to the owners before they review poorly. It will be rectified! Amazing guys, and truly great customer service.
Got a great deal on a necklace and a couple phone cases. Place was super tidy, easy to get around, and found what I was looking for with ease. Walked in happy, walked out happier, and that’s the best feeling to get leaving any business.
I was looking to upgrade my vinyl player for a few weeks, picking the worst time as everything was sold out. I had my eye on one at best buy but again, no idea when they would have it in stock. I called saying what I was looking for in a player and he had said he had just the one for me! I went in not having much expectation and behold it was the exact player I had been looking at. Needless to say I was over the moon happy, got it home and it works like a dream! Got a few new record for my collection, now looking forward to blasting them with a glass of wine on the weekend.
Love this shop. Never had a problem going in and buying something. Guy that’s usually there is always friendly and always up for a good chat. Fair prices and will haggle with you at a reasonable level. If he starts dabbling in pc parts I may have to visit more often!
Pros: lots of selection on used games, consoles etc, friendly staff, honest.
Cons: None that I can think of so far.
I used to find a lot of fun games and instruments here. I will be coming down once I can drive.

Awesome treats and coffee
One of best coffee in the province, friendly staff and great space! A weekly stop for my wife and I.
great coffee. surprisingly affordable
great place to meet with friends and has a very relaxing environment. love the random live music too!
Love the vibe in here! Lots of delicious goodies and great coffee. My only complaint is that the staff seem a little unfriendly because they’re always just talking to each other/not focusing on the customer in front of them. A reviewer below said “would be great if i didn’t feel i was bothering them” and that’s kind of how I feel too.
Good varieties of coffee.
Sour grape was awesome when it was open to go In. To bad they still haven’t open up other than drive trough used to be a great place to go
Very long wait, no indoor seating, my order was wrong.
Service was slow and the food was meh
3. The Source
Address: Mall, 1198 Onondaga St Unit #28, Oromocto, NB E2V 1J4, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Awesome service from two super people who know their job exclusively!!!!
Very knowledgeable and helpful staff, they also give military discount
Went into the store for an Apple Watch, wasn’t sure about the differences between the models. I was helped by a girl named Jenn who did a great job taking time to explain it to me what was what. It’s been a great watch and I’ll be back again, the other staff seemed really friendly from what I could tell. I only wish there was maybe some extra computer gear they carried so I could make them my main tech space, it’s been hard to find one around the area since moving here.
Friendly staff and helpful
First time in store today. Very impressed. Staff members were really helpful
It was good… The staff was quick to help answered all my questions
They lie straight to your face.
3rd visit to the source and my samsung phone still wont charge all they do is keep selling cord and plug ends at 24.99 and phone is still not charging .I AM NEVER BUYING FROM THE SOURCE AGAIN..
I don’t usually leave reviews and I shop here quite often. The last few times I’ve been in has not been the pleasant experience me or my family has been accustomed to. Over the last month there have been new faces and I know because as soon as I step in I find myself inundated with people getting up in my face and then not knowing how to help me at all. Or having to chase down some of the older staff ( I don’t like leaving a 1star because the staff like Virginia are fantastic. She’s five stars on her own I hope she never leaves. The other regular staff are great too. Maybe it’s seasonal hire rush). But It’s been a very frustrating experience because up until the last month or two it’s been lovely. I am not sure if this is how things are supposed to be done but if it is I will be going elsewhere.
4. Giant Tiger
Address: 1300 Onondaga St, Oromocto, NB E2V 2P4, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Lots of selection in clothing from baby’s to Adult’s (men & woman). Groceries such as potatoes, fruits, can goods, toilet paper etc…Friendly & helpful employees.
It was a great experience. Good deals, great selection. They had all advertised sale items in stock. Will go back again
The grocery section is the highlight. Unlike most other discount stores, GT sells recognized national brands (as well as store-brand and off-brand products), just cheaper than the grocery store. There are a few unique products not sold elsewhere.
The men’s clothing selection tends to skew towards attire for teenagers, and there is very limited selection in larger sizes.
Prices for clothes are good and blankets. Food is cheap when on sale but the display in the fridges is not something that attracted my attention. Good store for cheap stuff I appreciated
Different styles and much more selection
Bad employees
Terrible experience first and last time I will ever go there 2 people got served before me very unprofessional.
Dont like the costumer service
5. Long & McQuade Musical Instruments
Address: 981 Prospect St, Fredericton, NB E3B 2T7, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Awesome service. Great lessons, the financing program is great and everyone is very helpful.
Very knowledgeable and great assistance with all issues..
So impressed at how helpful, courteous and polite staff is! Helped me find the right products for me at a great price! Quality!
Good covid procedures. Store is great staff helpful. Wish they carried more of their online stock in store, they seem to be out of a lot of things
Very clean, respectful and knowledgeable staff when I visited.
You can buy instruments, take music lessons, and rent out equipment all in one place.
I go into this store frequently hoping to see something good. Their left handed stock is comprised of 1 cheap simon and patrick acoustic that has the same strings it had when I first moved here a year ago, and some combination of a cheap bullet strat, classic vibe telecaster, cheap epiphone sg, and one time they had a MIM fender strat. I shouldn’t get excited to see one MIM strat when I walk into a music store. Their selection of picks is very limited and strings are a bit pricey. I don’t know if I’ve ever spent money in this store even though I check at least weekly trying to.
Staff are very friendly and quick to help as soon as you walk in the door, however this is the third year in a row I have tried to rent equipment from L&M for an event, and the third year that I was either sent off without everything I had ordered, or pieces of the equipment were not working. Very inconvenient and I will be renting from somewhere else next year.

Great tattoo shop.
Clean & organized.
Friendly & knowledgeable staff.
Good spot
The owner and his staff are fantastic to deal with and talk to. They take the time to give you what you won’t. Very clean and sanitized. Highly recommend
7. Tony’s Music Box Ltd
Address: 396 Queen St, Fredericton, NB E3B 1B2, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
I feel it’s very important to support local businesses.. employees are always there to help you in a very friendly environment
Amazing staff that do their best to help you with all of your needs.
This is a playground for musicians! Nice guys and good technicians. They adjusted my guitar this year for a fair cost.
Helping staff. Not a wide range of working hours.
Awesome friendly service. In the heart of downtown Fredericton. Extremely knowledgeable. Time proven success.
Great people. I was given the impression that they are experienced yet zen in the wisdom of musical instruments. I bought a bhodran drum and a harmonica, and will probably pick up a violin or real-sounding piano (I don’t like my hollow sounding keyboard.) It would be cool to find a variety of woodwinds, but I understand they are notoriously expensive and heavily specialized compared to your mainstream guitar, piano, or tambourine. All around great atmosphere, but the jelly rug kind of discomforts my feet at the door.
Not a very good selection on acoustic guitars. Service was ok but not outstanding…however they are willing to make deals unlike long and mcquade
Well…I go in there the other day…haven’t been in there in a long time…I pick up a expensive guitar, didnt play it …and there is a yellow piece of paper on it with a date..the guy that was working there..says please dont handle everything in the store..he was very rude to me …so I said you just lost my business…and walked out ! You better tell your staff how to speak to people!!
They should focus on music considering the masks and hand sanitizer do little to nothing, they’ve forgotten how to respect people and have become the covid cult like most big businesses.

Address: 23 Branch Rd, Geary, NB E2V 3Z8, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Great breakfast and nice special. Waitress was friendly and attentive to us.
Great food!
Best Wings Around
Not bad, nice place to come and chill after a day of work.
Wing night
I has a couple beers, the atmosphere was nice, company was great, service was very prompt.
Needs a much needed update, everything is pretty dingy and sticky!
The wait staff refused to come to our table, anytime they saw us looking for them, they would hide in the back. I’m guessing they are employed based on other factors unrelated to service experience. Food is good, best pizza in town, I recommend ordering take out.
Typical military town bar. Not recommended if you just wish to have a great meal. Food is frozen before preparation, and not that fresh. Staff was polite, but too many idiot military people, not just guys, causing a very impolite, drunk atmosphere. Overall, Oromocto has no great food establishments. Food in Oromocto is cheaply prepared and this “bar” does not monitor food preparation, it is fast food for drinkers.
10. Harmony House
Address: 151 Wetmore Rd, Fredericton, NB E3B 6Y2, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Terrific shop! I love the DVD selection. They are getting lots of older
movies, hard to find, rare ones! Great for the Baby Boomers! Yesterday
I bought the oldie, Fatal Attraction, also saw Steel Magnolias!!
Great staff. One man there, I think he may be the manager. He is there, alone, a lot through mid week and he is the greatest!!
Always very knowledgeable, always willing to look up items,
most helpful! He is a rare gem because he always offers help, which
is non existent in stores nowadays! He has helped me several times.
I would give this store more stars if I could!!!! A rare gem for sure!!!
Thank You Sunrise!!!

Always got some good stuff, could use complete anime sets…
It has an ever-expanding selection of music, movies, and anime. Here is great news for Kpop fans, there are more albums on the way along with Kpop associated memorabilia.
Decent selection , some prices a bit on the high side .
Bel endroit dispendieuse mais beaucoup de contenue.
Ok
Not sure what is the point of this place
Like it
The store has some good merchandise, but poorly laid out. Walked down an aisle to the posters. And was told I’m in an employee section. I wasn’t behind the counter or their storage, just a aisle with funkos and godzilla coin banks. Maybe change the layout of your store.

everything you need in one spot!
Great staff
Easy parking.
Great experience, found everything I was looking for. Parking was alright, busy place.
Wi-Fi is available at locations if needed
It’s no longer a mall but a small strip plaza.
All over the place, speed bumps everywhere
Not a mall anymore. Just a sad shell of what it was.
Miss the indoor atmosphere where you got to mingle with everyone.
13. Jungle Jim’s
Address: 2 Gateway Dr, Oromocto, NB E2V 4S3, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Nothing to complain about. Atmosphere is fun. Food is good. Drinks are good. Prices aren’t bad. Staff are friendly.
Very nice place to eat.
Amazing food
Cute spot. Just had drinks so not sure what food is like. Reasonable prices. Friendly staff.
Fast service, lots of parking.
Fine. Food was average. Good stop along the hwy
Way too many staff hanging out chatting to be leaving this place in such a mess. Staff is not a bit friendly, long wait for our order to be taken and even longer for food which was no better than the service. Won’t ever eat here again.
Service was terrible. Felt we were being ignored and for food priced at $15+ we were not impressed. Don’t plan to go back anytime soon.
My last three visits I have left disappointed. Family and date nights are important to me and this just doesn’t cut it as an outing. For example, my last visit consisted of being greeted, taken to the table, drinks/food ordered the same time and then waiting 45 minutes until I had to go to the bar, reintroduce myself to our waitress, and have my order cancelled or bagged. Turns out the food we were waiting for was not only incorrect but cold.
It is frustrating as I do the surveys or leave comments that bring up my concerns, and I don’t hear anything back. I don’t want free or discounted anything, just better.
This last visit, my waitress’ name was Eve if the helps anyone. My family deserves better so we are going somewhere else from now on.
14. Hudson Audio Productions
Address: 45 Brookwood Dr, Noonan, NB E3A 6Y7, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Great location and anesthetic. Good music, and pool tables. Friendly staff too
Nice relaxing atmosphere and cold beer
Not a bad place
Beer selection is only Molson products, no food service, lighting is dim. The bartender has an attitude and poor customer service. She will stop playing your music even if you have paid the money, or just yell across the place.
Staff was friendly, though when I left the table to play pool they threw out nearly half my pizza still in the box because they “thought no one was eating it” without asking me literally 10 meters away. Who doesn’t want leftover pizza in this economy??
Fun place to drink and meet new people and hangout with friends. But the prices are insane, it’s a extra dollar for any mix you want in your drink.
18. Pita Pit
Address: 407 Miramichi Rd, Oromocto, NB E2V 0B3, Canada , Oromocto , New Brunswick , Canada
Awesome service, quick, clean and delicious. Open late on Sundays. Lunch time can be busy so get there early. Highly recommend the steak with extra meat extra cheese.
Good service, taste was great!
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free option and know to prevent cross contamination… Great staff
Food is ok but I think it’s kinda pricey
Poor service on Saturday…way under staffed.
Please don’t close early! Google shows hours so I don’t waste my time.
Gone downhill compared to the quality you received from this location a few years ago portions are smaller and the current employers always make mistakes on the orders
I go to pita pit often for my lunch but I often end up sit in the drive thru for 5+ minutes to no answer. By that point I’m too annoyed to go in so I just end up going elsewhere.
