The outside displays are always enticing; everything from fresh herb plants to produce can be seen as a backdrop to a small outdoor seating area, which is a great place to chill once you've grabbed a quick ready-to-go item for a snack or lunch. Typical items are sandwiches, fresh pizza, baked goods. Also, coffee is pretty decent. I'm a big fan of their move to support gluten free products. They currently carry Purest, a brand that's based in ON, and every Wednesday is gluten-free day; they have pizza and sandwiches that are really yummy. And, today I even scored a GF brownie - delicious. Prices definitely reflect the quality, which I won't complain about - it just makes it a more occasional stop for me.

Delicious soup, spinakopita and other goodies. They sell almost all local produce, with some flux during the winter months. Lots of meat, cheese options as well as veggies and a growing section of other staples like flour and beans. CSA drop-offs also abound here and it sort of turns into a cool little hub of activity in the summer. Not really much by way of seating area except during the summer time when the outside area turns into a patio area. Also probably some of the best coffee in Kingston. Bueno bean is the bomb.

We always stop here on our way to the cottage to get groceries (and desserts!) They sell baked goods and breads from well-known Kingston establishments like Card's Bakery and Pan Chancho, which is very convenient. They also have a great selection of fresh produce and carry seasonal local produce.

They have an amazing variety of vinegars (white balsamic and regular balsamic) and olive oils. The staff are very knowledgeable and can help you pair different flavours if you're feeling overwhelmed. Love that you can taste test the different products (vinegars and oils). They also run a bottle recycling program so if you bring back your washed bottles you can get 10% off a new bottle! They occasionally come out with new flavours so make sure to stop by every so often to check it out! Fun fact: this is also a stop on the Kingston food tours!

The home fries are likely out of a bag. You order the "Farmer meal" and you will be lucky if you get three over easy eggs or whatever you asked for. You might get one egg correct, two being rare treat. Again, nice people but the fare is mostly a prefab, take it or leave it. I would not recommend this place to anyone. It is not the "greasy spoon" that the country folk need. The cook seems indifferent to the quality that the price suggests.

You can also buy spices in bulk which is awesome when you only need a teaspoon of cloves for a certain recipe and will most likely never use them again. The staff kind of have a "I cant be bothered" attitude but I really enjoyed the food I bought from here hence the four stars ;)

Staff are incredibly helpful, especially when you're not sure where something might be located.

We didn't stay in so we wandered the store side a bit. There were a lot of ready-made meals like pies and sausage rolls and ice creams. You could pick up a tasty sweet treat, some freshly baked breads, and a lot of lovely dessert options. They also had some local goodies like County Bounty sodas, jams, teas, and others. I picked up a few local goodies and then a cinnamon bun (which was massive!) and a ginger cookie. The ginger cookies were delicious. Soft, molassas cookies with that chewy texture. The cinnamon bun was huge and more bread-y than sweet, which I really liked. It had such a great flavour. We wanted to grab some pies too but we couldn't bring them on the road with us. Definitely gotta bring a cooler next time we're heading into Kingston. The staff are also so friendly here and do their best to get through the crowd in an organized and fast way. Can't wait to be back

We had to reheat the sausage roll at home as they did not offer to do it in store, which was fine since we weren't planning on eating it right away.

There is a lot going on, but don't get overwhelmed. Everyone is super friendly. The cafe doubles as a speciality grocery store. There are items throughout the main floor for purchase as well as a full array of meats and cheeses in the back. Lots to look at and try. What I like most is that they strive to be local. When the weather is good venture up the abundance of stairs to the roof top patio. It's quite the view and a nice place to soak up some rays. On the off chance the weather isn't so nice you can dine on the main floor or take the secret set of stairs down to another seating area (you'll know what I'm talking about once you're in there). Overall this place is great and their sandwiches are fabulous! Moderately priced. Check them out! Support local!
