    Lots of food options. Our group ordered salads (I had salmon salad), which were excellent.

    I give it a meh, but my wife gave it an A-OK so I rounded up.

    Meh: hamburger combo. Once I ordered, the cook pulled out a par-cooked patty and threw it on the grill to finish cooking. The taste was ok, nothing special. The fries were limp and there wasn't a whole lot of them.

    A-OK: the rainbow roll. I didn't try it, but my wife liked it. The ginger came in packets tho which was odd for an eat in meal.

    What a great place !  

    Great location and the food, from the prepared sandwiches to the pasties, cakes, cupcakes and the food you can pick up a prepare at home, this place is AWESOME...wish there was more around.

    On this shopping occasion I pick up the apple bread which is really nice for french toast.   I've stopped in a here a couple times for a coffee after or between shopping ventures and the place is relaxing and great place to meet a friend for lunch !

    Foodwares Market you can say it is located in a perfect location by the subway entrance and exit.. but if you never take the subway, you would never know that it exist!

    It is located on the lower level of the The Bay. It reminds me of a cafeteria that one can get something quick but here what one can get are gourmet food! Thinks fancy Panini, Artisan Bread, Espresso drinks.....

    There are also Gelato, sweet, marcons and biscotti to go with your coffee!

    Plenty of seatings, great place to come for a quick lunch or just hang with your friends.

    There are also a lot of products from SOMA (Mayan Hot Chocolate powder!), O&B baked goodies, Tea Emporium just to name a few!

    Gourmet grocery and food with a price to match...but that's what you expect to pay for better things in life!

    I must admit I've stopped by FoodWares more than a few times in the past two months i've been working downtown. Can't help it since I have to pass through lower level of the Bay on the way to work every morning and I'm a sucker for bakery goods. The muffins, croissants and such appear to baked fresh every morning.

    So far I've tried various muffins, almond croissant, pain au lait and veggie panini. Nothing bad to say about their muffins. They taste good even in the afternoon. The almond croissant was yummyyy, crispy on the outside. They are quite generous with their so-so almond filling, I think a little too generous.. I actually took some out because I felt like it was too much. I would give the pain au lait a pass next time. It was pretty dry. Their veggie panini was really good and it comes with a little tiny soup. It costs 11 bucks though and you can find cheaper panini options in the Path. They do have a good selection of breads to choose from though.

    In addition, they have soups, random pastas, sandwiches in their open fridge area and a dessert counter.
