A stone's throw from the heart of the Annex, Panacea is pretty much a literal one-stop-shop for vegan goods and goodies. You don't know how lucky you are, Toronto!

Some other health food stores or supermarkets do carry a small crossover of products…More »

Category: Specialty Food

12/8/2009

This store has the best range of British imported foods/sweets/drinks i've seen in candy stores in Toronto so far. It is so fantastic to be able to walk in off the street and purchase a cold can of Irn Bru, or grab a packet of Walker's Crisps.

They…More »

Toronto, ON M6G 1K1
(416) 588-2698

Category: Grocery

Neighbourhood: Seaton Village

9/1/2010

I used to live just north of here on Markham Street, and would quite often pop in to get essentials when I couldn't/didn't want to make it to the supermarket for a proper shop.

The basics are in abundance - juices, milks (dairy and non), meat, veggie…More »

396 St Clair Ave W
Toronto, ON M5P 3N3

Category: Grocery

Neighbourhood: Casa Loma

10/22/2010

Me and this Loblaw's are pretty decent acquaintances - we don't hang out much, but we get along just fine when we do. He's a solid guy.

As far as I can tell, it's a pretty run-of-the-mill Loblaws, and has everything you'd expect of it…More »

5. The Kitchen Table

595 Bay St W
Toronto, ON M5G 2C2
(416) 977-2225

Category: Grocery

Neighbourhood: Downtown Core

9/1/2010

This is a really handy place to grab groceries when you're downtown and work in the area. It's right near my gym and right on the subway line, so it's often more convenient for me to drop in here to grab something rather than near where I live. It's…More »

6. Food Depot

155 Dupont St
Toronto, ON M5R 1V5
(416) 925-6079

Category: Grocery

Neighbourhood: The Annex

9/1/2010

The Food Depot isn't perfect, but it's good to have as a backup when you can't get to the Loblaws in the area (or they're closed).

Reasonable chilled food sections and quite a large grocery variety. Fruit and veg section isn't huge nor always spot-on…More »

87 Avenue Rd
Toronto, ON M5R 3R9
(416) 944-0500

Categories: Grocery, Health Food Store

Neighbourhood: The Annex

11/5/2010

Yes, it's expensive. Yes, it's full of the strangest mix of customers you'll see in any Yorkville store. Yes, it's kind of a pain in the arse to get to.

With that out of the way..

Pros:
- Decent range of speciality frozen goods
- Decent range of…More »

777 Bay St
Toronto, ON M5G 2C8
(416) 850-4641

Category: Health Food Store

Neighbourhood: Downtown Core

11/5/2010 First to Review

I occasionally duck into Whole Health, as it's downstairs in my work building. It's conveniently located for sure, but a little haphazard in terms of what they stock and how the place is organised. If you can't find something, staff are more than…More »

Neighbourhoods: Brockton Village, Bloordale Village, Dufferin Grove

11/6/2010

La Tortilleria has a fantastic range of import Mexican groceries - canned goods, dried chillies, sauces, beans, desserts, snacks & drinks. Just as good as any of the little Mexican marts in Kensington Market, really - but much more handy if you don't…More »
