Expect to pay more than the regular grocery store but you know you're getting good quality. Sanagan's Meat Locker is not just another butcher shop, it's a meat lover's paradise. They cater to diverse palate ensuring there's something for everyone including offering seasonal and local game meats. But beyond the exceptional quality of their meats, what truly elevates Sanagan's is their outstanding customer service. The staff is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly friendly. They take the time to understand your needs and preferences and provide personalized recommendations. This is my go to place for when I need to buy quality meat to make a perfect dinner at home or impress guests for that special occasions.

Sanagan's Meat Locker is not just a Butchery, but also a market that showcases many high quality artisanal and local products. Their meats are always high quality and enhances whatever recipe you are using. There's also an educational aspect to Sanagan's. If you subscribe to their newsletter, or buy Peter Sanagan's book, you learn so much about what cuts of meat to use with what types of dishes, you discover hidden gems in cuts of meat, not to mention fantastic recipes. I had never heard of flat iron steaks (one of the most tender cuts of beef and very affordable) before Sanagan's and now it's a staple in my household. You are also able to order cuts of meat that are not available at the counter (I ordered duck hearts once) as well as order ahead online. The housemade sauces and charcuterie made by Sanagan's are also delicious. They might be slightly higher priced than supermarket brands, but they're highly worth it. Everyone is also super friendly and helpful at Sanagan's, you just know that they're being treated well there.

Of the three Kensington Market creameries, this is by far the cheapest. I'll compare some prices…read morefor your shopping convenience. presliced small packed of chease are $1 at Global, and 6 for $3 (¢50/pack) at Mendels. They come in mozzerella, provalone, cheddar and a few others. Mendels also does a good deal on stilton. If you buy it off of the wheel it's $5.99/100g But you get two 100g wedges prepaked for $6 flat. Half the price. They used to have $5/lb brie that came in big squares. I would stuff it with fruit and bake it. Cheap and fancy. Global, as far as I know, doesn;t sell large tubs of anchovies, but Mendels does. The giants tubs are $19.99, which I think cuts the price in half of the tiny ones that are $7.99. All in all, the cheapest in the market with a fine selection. The selection isn;t as big as at Global, and there are fewer of the fancy-smancy $14.99/100g seasonal tombes, etc, that you can get from Cheese Magic, but that's fine by me cause I rarely ever get those things. They also have a nice selection of cured fish, like herring on a pickle.

I have lived near Kensington Market for 5 years, and have shopped at all three cheese stores in the…read moremarket. I will no longer be patronizing Mendels Creamery. I have been attracted to their prices for cheese, but find that the perceived value is not actual. I suspected this for a while, but only gave in to confirming my suspicions after I acquired a calibrated digital scale. I weighed the cheese at home and found that on my last 3 purchases, I have been short-changed. The first time, I thought it might be a mistake, but this shortfall has been consistent. On my last [now final] visit, I asked for some of their "crumbled feta" and received a tub of cubed feta that was mostly brine. Yes, the whole weight *almost* reflected the quoted price, but paying 88 cents per hundred grams for mostly salty water guarantees that I will be shopping elsewhere from now on.

Entertainment District, Downtown Core

First time trying a cheesesteak sandwich and first visit to this spot…read more * Ill Styl3 Sammies is known for serving Toronto's best Philly Cheesesteak -- and after my visit, I can see why. * No parking available on site, but it is just a seven minute walk from Osgoode Station, making it great for commuters. * Only a few bar top seats inside, about three spots total. This is more of a grab and go setup. * No washrooms inside. * The owners are from Philly, which makes sense given how authentic the sandwiches are. * Steak is thinly sliced, cooked fresh on the flat top, topped with melted cheese, and finished with their house made hot sauce. * The menu is surprisingly large, and I am already planning to go back to try a few more sandwiches. * The owners are warm and love chatting with their customers -- the energy inside is friendly and relaxed. * Sandwiches are around fifteen to eighteen dollars and worth every bite. * Apple Pay available for quick checkout. * Located at 300 Richmond Street West, just a short walk from the subway.

All others wait on the sidewalk. When I finally was allowed inside to order I attempted to order a hoagie (which is half of their menu) and only then was I informed there were no hoagies that day.! Unbelievable...I honestly would not waste my time, there are several other sandwich shops in the area without the hassle!

You can always find a ton of products in here that are better priced then other health food stores. Staff are always lovely. I stop in here all the time even when I don't need anything. They have everything from fresh veggies, to dairy (and vegan dairy), meats (and vegan meats), drinks, snacks, oils, bulk pantry items, household cleaning and toiletries, and a large supplement section. It's amazing that they can fit all of this in one seemingly small store!

A natural way to promote more hair growth? I'm down to try. I am amazed this little store in Kensington has so many essential to trendy natural products at such reasonable prices. You'll find anything from natural deodorant to vegan nail polish, essential oils, natural beauty products, cleaning supplies, and a grocery at the back. Wow! I can see why they are so busy. It can be tricky to find things you need through all the aisles of products, but the staff knows where everything is when you ask. Purchased Neem oil 100ml (Unbranded) $5.99 Rosemary oil organic 30ml (Now brand) $17.99 Their Dr. Bronner's Castile soap is a great price compared to buying online through Amazon. It's always a great bonus to save money while supporting local.
