Wow, I'm surprised that Lockside has never been reviewed. They've been there forever and I know…read morethey're popular. I've probably been to Lockside at least a dozen times over the years, but there was a big gap between 2012 and 2018 when I was out of the province. I can honestly say that the place is exactly the same in 2018 as it was in 2012, although I imagine they'd disagree. Lockside is an interesting eclectic store with a wide variety of unique home decor items, furniture, clothing, and gifts. But be warned, it is NOT cheap. That place is on the high-end side when it comes to prices. Even their t-shirts are expensive. Over the years I've mainly browsed at Lockside because their stuff is too expensive to buy. But I have purchased a few small items now and again. The most frequent item I've bought is an ice cream cone! They serve Kawartha Dairy ice cream (the best ever) and they have a lovely outdoor area to sit and savour your ice cream while you watch the boats come and go from the Young's Point lock. The ice cream and location makes up for the fact that they're too expensive for the average person. You walk away thinking, "well, at least I got a good ice cream cone"! :-)

What a horrible experience. I returned to visit Peterborough in May 2012 (I went to Trent years…read moreago) and decided to visit Peterborough Square for old times sake. I saw some gnomes at homeology and because my husband collects them I decided to take a closer look. The salesperson saw me coming and came out of the store towards me. I smiled and said hello and she retorted a greeting followed by "how can I help you?" I was surprised but told her I wanted to see the gnomes. She told me that the ones I saw were all they had. Note we were not in the store yet! So I moved forward and she snapped at me, "give me your bags". I was so angry I walked away much to her pleasure. I know from having lived there that Peterborough can be an awfully racist place but I must say I was saddened that after all these years nothing has changed. I just married a white man and he was so angry when I came home and told him he insists we go back this summer and he will have words with them. I find the whole thing humiliating and it has taken me a lot of time to gather my thoughts and post this review. Probably they don't even care, as it's a small store but I was prepared to spend upwards of $300 that day and that's their loss.
