1. Longo's
This is my Longo's, bitches!
This Longo's is on my way home from work. I was going to have to start eating dust bunnies if I didn't get some groceries tonight. I love how this Longo's has a civilized parking lot (has one way signs to keep the traffic…More »

Oh saweet Jebus! I made the mistake of trying their carrot cake with cream cheese icing. I am now comatose and stopping myself from reaching for more. Must. Not. Eat. Whole. Loaf.

3. Summerhill Market
I feel almost bi-polar about this place. I have gone back, tried it again, and am being won over a bit at a time.
Being someone who like very flavourful food, I am realizing why Summerhill Market's prepared food isn't overly flavourful....low fat,…More »

4. Loblaws Supermarkets Limited
I am not quite sure how this grocery store even survives. I found it by accident. I turned down a wrong street. Went to go turn around, and like a beacon of light, I saw the sign, and it said Loblaws. There is nothing else on this street and it…More »
5. La Rose Italian Bakery
I think I was Italian in a previous life.
Only because I have family in the area and through their recommendations did I find this place. I have never seen such a wide selection of oils in my life. I also adore that they carry some Brit products as…More »
6. EuroMax Foods
EuroMax carries a wide variety of eastern European foods and treats.
Growing up in Oshawa (large Polish and Ukrainian community), I have missed these kinds of stores. Stores where a gal can get her cured meat, pierogies and cabbage rolls.
The whole…More »

SLAP MY ASS AND CALL ME SALLY!!!
I went to Whole Foods today to load up on good, organic food. I have been super busy, haven't had time to cook and haven't been eating properly. I made an executive decision to treat myself to a big shop at Whole…More »

Categories:
Health Food Store,

Neighbourhood: Riverdale
I prefer Whole Foods and Wild and Fresh. I really do.
My Big Carrot experience was okay...they did have some of the yogurt and eggs and meat pies I was looking for, but so does Wild and Fresh and Whole Foods. But, what brought the shopping times down…More »
9. Kenpik Bulk Shop
Toronto, ON M4S 1R7
(416) 932-8428
Category:
Grocery
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant and Davisville
I tried to like this store, I really did.
As a fan of bulk food stores, and the lack of Bulk Barn's in the city, I thought I had stumbled upon a small mom and pop's type gem.
The owner, the set up, all very nice, sweet and small. They had the 2…More »
10. McEwan Gourmet Grocery Store
The Shops at Don Mills is a great reno. It is like the small town-outdoor-east end version of Yorkdale. A little bit of everything at the medium to high end price points.
I was quite excited to hear that McEwan had opened. I went early in the am when…More »

Categories:
Florists,
Fruits & Veggies
Neighbourhoods: Rosedale, Summer Hill
I agree with Luke A's review. You know for the area (Summerhill) it is not going to be cheap, and some of the clientele do have a great sense of entitlement.
I stopped by because it looked cute and I love little groc stores. Plus, they had a wide…More »

13. Bagel World
Sure, the bagels are good, but the chocolate croissants....whoa mama! They are HUGE and dense. Can be shared for sure. Unlike most chocolate croissants that have a high carb to chocolate ratio...these morsels from heaven are the opposite and a…More »

15. Chez Piggy Restaurant
I have been to Chez Piggy a few times. It is very clean, and always welcoming. Seems good, right?! The food is okay. Nothing great, just okay. I also find it is overpriced for what you get.
Of all the things I bought, I got some great tea…More »

Toronto, ON M5E 1C3

Category:
Caterers
Neighbourhoods: St. Lawrence, Downtown Core
The only frozen/prepared food I like is home made. The Instant Caterer is a dream for me. The tight quarters have freezers full of great products from various Canadian producers. I have had some great quiche, burritos, spicy potato wedges and meat…More »

18. Peter's No Frills
This review is based mostly on nonperishables.
This is my favourite No Frills, and is a bit of a hike from my home. But, it has ample parking and is clean - so it is a winner for me.
I do not buy any meat here (it smells like wet dog near the meat…More »

Category:
Grocery
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant and Davisville
I love this grocery store.
It is small, has most items you need, but not a lot of variety. If you are looking for a drugstore/clothing store/bookstore, etc in a grocery store, this place is not for you.
The staff are very friendly and helpful. Most…More »
20. Highland Farms
When you walk in, the horrid green colour hits you like a wet tea towel across the face, and you end up trying to dodge the horrid colour and it just keeps coming back, and coming back. I find it a disturbing, retina detaching, skin crawling colour.…More »

This spot is for sure a budget friendly shop. For $23.51 I got:
- tomatoes
- 2 batches of organic blueberries
- bag of Meyer lemons
- brussel sprouts
- cucumber
- cantaloupe
- oranges
- avocado
- carrots
I would have bought more, but I was running out of…More »
