We bought fruit,pastries,home made lemonade and chocolates. Of course we ate them all up! Prices weren't cheap however, we are just visiting so I have nothing to compare them to.

    Granville Island Public Market is one of those classic Vancouver experiences that pretty much…read moreeveryone tells you to do--and now I get why. The market sits on Granville Island, which used to be an industrial area before being transformed in the 1970s into a cultural and food hub. Getting there is part of the fun: you can take a quick water taxi across False Creek, drive, or grab a regular taxi. We went the easy route and arrived by car, but I'd love to try the water bus next time for the full experience. We got there later in the evening on a Sunday, so they closed early and time was limited. Before I even stepped inside, I spotted a vendor making maple candy--the kind that is poured onto ice and rolled up o to a stick. Highly recommend giving this very Canadian treat a try! Inside, it's exactly what you hope for: a lively space packed with vendors--produce, baked goods, prepared foods, local specialties. I had a short must-try list, starting with Lee's Donuts, Siegel's Bagels, and a hunt for Nanaimo bars, the iconic no-bake Canadian dessert named after the city of Nanaimo in British Columbia. Even with little time, it was fun weaving through the stalls and admiring all the products. Since we were visiting during the holidays, there were extra vendors selling arts, crafts, and locally made sweets, which made the whole place feel even more festive. We picked up bottles of maple syrup to bring home as gifts and also tried a few canelés. After we enjoyed our dinner, I stepped outside and took a moment to soak in the view--city lights reflecting on the water, the bridge glowing in the distance, everything calm and picturesque. It was a quiet contrast to the busy market inside and ended the visit on a really peaceful note. Definitely take in the view if you have a minute! Even though we didn't have as much time as I would have liked, it was still a great experience. Granville Island Public Market absolutely lives up to its "must-do" reputation.

    This is a decent place to stop for veggies, & prepared items. As it is a bit of a speciality store…read moremixed with local farm items & items from other locations. If you're like me with variable mobility days, this store is the perfect size to get in, shop & still leave before your too broken from a grocery trip in the winter. The vegetables & fruit are in the open but covered area & the rest, from speciality sweets, local products (I really enjoy grabbing That's My Jam & Hardy Honey) to a little deli of prepared items & meat choices. With a smaller store means there's limited options if you're shopping later at night. So do keep that in mind as well as that there is a bit higher cost to shopping here. I do that trade off with where my mobility days are in winter & distance to drive to the other grocery stores. There looks to be an enclosed seating area beside the deli (but I'm never there early enough to see if that's for customers or only staff), a pizza place just outside the market, beside (but associated with the market) is the cafe with delicious ice cream & doughnuts. And on the side of the cafe, a thrifting shop & outdoor area to sit. both buildings are friendly for all mobility aids entering but inside both places, I wouldn't want to navigate with a walker or wheelchair if it was busy. These places are smaller, so layout is tight. Cane users, just be aware you might need to side shuffle on the busier days & times. There always seems to be plenty of parking in the narrow but long parking lot. I also noticed people do park along the side road too. I can't say I ever see n handicap parking stalls closer to the market itself but there's clear ones by the cafe. Access off the main highway is quick & if you're on the outskirts of Duncan, this would be your first grocery option going into the city. If you're into randomly fun photo opps, there's some neat vintage tractors outside and the market is decorated with all sorts of things. Just be watchful of the traffic as the place is quite busy in the daytime. Last note. But for us disabled folks, a good heads up. I don't know if I randomly walk in the wrong doors or they really hide the baskets well, but never seem to notice where the baskets are placed. That fact itself doesn't bother me as I prefer to shop with my cloth bags being that it's easier for me to carry /I bump less things or people while using my cane & shuffling around. Plus, I avoid triggering my back pain pushing a random cart in a smaller space that often can be crowded. However, instead of ever being offered a basket to use or any help shopping, I have found myself to be subject of some very obvious watching. The last shopping experience (in fall 2025) was so beyond obvious that it reached the point being clearly cut off by staff while I'm trying to reach & look for items. Instead of ever just being asked to switch to a basket while shopping (this particular staff member seemed to have a lot of time on their hands & could of brought me one if they truly just wanted to keep an eye on what I was shopping for), I eventually was given really poor attempt of an apology at the till as I was packing up my paid items (apparently "there's a guy" that comes in randomly with the same bag that tries to shoplift & yet I had 2 bags, interacted with the few other staff & was thoughtfully choosing items from my list while moving at my very limpy pace...). Truthfully, I haven't been back since as it left a bad taste in my mouth. It's not the first time I'm profiled wrongly as a disabled person (my cane is my aid for over 6 years) but this was probably the worst level of assumption (& actions by what I think was even the manager the way he was talking). However, I have to say the regular market staff are always kind & helpful for any questions I have. Most offer to help me with searching for items if I'm standing too long in one spot (which I sometimes do for pain management reasons or to make sure my balance is ok before bending for something). Sometimes staff even get really excited about a product I'm looking at buying. The quality of premade items ranges from good to very tasty. I like there's an assortment of local, Canadian & international items. The market has a few short rows of random goods & treats in the far corner with international highlighted which is always fun to browse. They even support a lot of local initiatives, including selling the cookies from group of disabled bakers. Which comes full circle to how I'm confused to rate this place. So I'll leave it at 4 stars & I'm sure later on during my Island wintering time I'll revisit this market & add to my review.

Now before you go crazy it's not a ladies of the night flesh market but a man's meat heaven. I mean a line of charcuterie cups filled with amazing selections of cured meats to go. Hands down some of the best product placement advertising I've ever witnessed. Ok, for those who love things that previously had faces for your own consumption you'll love this place. Now I didn't grab some of the chorizo bites yet I sure will on my next visit through the Granville market. Everything looked so tasty and wanted it all to get in my belly. So many meat options my head swirled around like a case of vertigo. Now I would suggest an extra stop at another place name Zara's Italian Deli. Upon locating grab some Mediterranean Olives mix cause it's the essential pairing with the flesh grab... I only wish I had a bottle of wine but defiantly and bottle of water is needed.

It was mushy on the inside. It's not only at this place but I found it to be the same everywhere. It's because it's overripe.
