Excellent service and quality. I don't mean just meats an example. They have lobster to choose from Caribbean or pacific. Fish of all sorts. Exotic like elk, wild boar and in house special made sausages. The place is so nice and inviting, I had not had a local butcher experience in decades. My new neighborhood butcher shop is amazing.

They sell freshly made ravioli, tortellini, lasagna, pasta, bread, sauces, and other entree options! You can freeze everything and easily heat it up within minutes for an easy, fresh meal option. I like to keep my freezer stocked with their items for when we don't have energy to cook a meal for dinner. Their fresh breads are also amazing too!

Do you have a need for proper British products? Then come on down to the British Shop. It's a quaint place for souvenirs and snacks. Very cute around the holidays (and in general).

It's so great to have a shop that has all things British in South Tampa. It truly is a one stop…read moreshop. They have beautiful sets of mixing bowls that remind me of the Great British Bake Off show. I saw the traditional teapots that you see all over the English countryside. There's snacks, chocolates, hard candies, tea, frozen pies, curry sauces, cheese, and even ice cream. I felt like I was back in Woodbridge, England. I honestly haven't seen this many grocery items in one place since being stationed over there. It really brought back great memories. I ended up buying some sweets. I was mainly looking for a box of Cadbury Roses, and some hard fruit candies with soft centers. I can't remember the brand name. I ended up getting the Cadbury Bournville bar in the Old Jamaica flavor. I thought it had been discontinued. This is actually the first time I've seen it in years. I also got the Simpkins Mixed Fruit Drops. It's the simple things that make me happy. All tasted exactly as I remembered them to be. I didn't get to hang out at the store long enough. I think that's a good thing, because I would have bought the Cadbury Eclairs and the Walkers Roasted Hazelnut Toffee bars. I'll need to pace myself. I can't wait to return for more goodies. It will be even more tempting at Christmas time when they bring in seasonal candies (hopefully liquor filled), and tree ornaments.

All right... I'm totally biased. My now wife and I had our first date in Hyde Park. We ate lunch…read moreand walked around visiting the shops. This was my first experience with Fig and Julep. I bought her and my now deceased father a bottle of special olives. A beautiful day with beautiful memories. I can't pass by the shop without picking something up. Recently, my wife and I were walking past the shop and we stopped by to get something new. It turns out the shop has changed ownership and I guess "technically" changed its name. However, they have not changed any of the signage. Doesn't matter... Same great shop. Fine oils for cooking, delicious olives, and I don't remember if they had jams or not... But I picked up a mango chutney. We were greeted with a smile by a very pleasant lady. Had a nice conversation and a small tour of the shop with new ownership. I still strongly recommend the shop. If you're in the Hyde Park area think about stopping by.

So many ways to enjoy your hot dogs. There is seating but it's very small and a little space outside to eat. I order the Chicago Dog with their fries and a Coke Zero. Now let's talk about this hotdog! Words can't express how my taste buds are jumping up and down with excitement of how good this is and all the ingredients are fresh. The fries perfection!

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and friendly welcome from the owner. The store was very clean, organized, and well laid out, with a great selection of Middle Eastern foods, spices, condiments, meats, fresh produce, and more. There's also a fresh meat section in the back. I purchased a whole chicken and asked the butcher if he could cut it up for me, and he gladly did--excellent service! Then I discovered the restaurant in the back. The menu looked so good that I couldn't leave without trying something. I ordered a family-style platter to take home, and it was a HIT. For $48, we received three different meats, rice, beautifully grilled vegetables, homemade hummus, pita, and sauce. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The best part? The platter was more than enough to feed my family of five. For the quality, quantity, and price, you really can't beat it. Great food, great service, a clean market, and excellent value. I will definitely be back!
