All baked goods, apples and ciders are fresh from their in-house bakery and farm at the back!! I love how you can save 50 cents if you bring your own bottle to buy honey on tap!! Would definitely recommend and come back with my beau! Tip: they don't accept paying by tap here and there are barking dogs outside in nearby premises

I was disappointed for the following reasons: - the woman…read morebehind the counter was not particularly friendly - we weren't allowed to see or choose the apples we wanted from the store. We had to select the varieties sight unseen. Then the staff member bagged them for us. Even at Food Basics or Loblaws, I get to choose my own apples. - we couldn't browse the jams, ciders, honey and other products available. Everything is inside the store but us! We weren't allowed in. I realize there's a pandemic on but other farms and markets allow you to see what you are buying up close. - the prices aren't great - there were no goats. We were told this is the first year that's the case; no explanation was given. They had a few chickens. When we asked where they were the staff member pointed in a vague direction. Please reread my first comment about the lack of friendliness! Positives: - the apples were fresh and tasted good - there's adequate parking.

There has been criticism regarding this farm which is not deserved. Bob Myers has always gone out…read moreof his way to accommodate his customers. Even when COVID was raging he found a way to make his orchard work. Unfortunately this farm is now closed and our family misses it -- a lot!! They had the best apples anywhere, they had wonderful staff, their 'mums they brought in from a local farmer were fabulous. No you don't chose the apples. You get what is in the bushel, 1/2 bushel. If you want to chose go to a grocery store. The farm is closed for the season. Good health to Barb and Bob. What a joy it was to visit every fall on a must say - a lot of occasions!! We miss you.

First time at Fortinos and I was quite surprised that it's not just a supermarket. Wow, there is a…read moredining section known as Pane Fresco with a variety of freshly prepared food and a coffee/latte/tea desserts station. We have been here twice for lunch recently. I didn't like the pizza that I had on my first visit but on my second visit, I really liked their soup and sandwich. I've tried the clam chowder and Butternut squash soups and both were delicious. If you like soup and sandwich, they have a really good combo deal. A small soup and 1/2 sandwich for $8.99 and both are good portions. I've only tried their Prime Rib on Bianco and egg salad wrap. I really liked the Prime Rib sandwich as the meat was juicy with tasty toppings like crispy onions and gouda cheese...just perfect! I have a feeling this will be my favourite but I'll have to try a few more before I conclude this. I was very impressed that the dining area was so clean. There were staffs throughout lunch time that kept cleaning the table. I'm not sure if there is a dining area at the other Fortinos locations. I'll be sure to update my review once I get a chance to check these locations out. Great place for a quick lunch or a coffee break!

I've been coming to Coulter Farms since I was a kid when my Grandma, bless her soul would bring me…read moreand my 5 cousins, don't know how she did it, but such sweet memories they are. This summer me and one of my cousins and our husbands came back to relive our memories, and the place was just how I remembered. Very friendly staff and service. There is a phone number on their website to call which gives up to date directions in terms of what is available and when and where which is super convenient. At the farm they have quart and pint containers, bags and trays for you to use as you go out and pick. Their fields are nice and easy to find. The fruit is fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. The trouble is the timing, anyone who has picked before knows there is a small window. Strawberries usually come near the end of June and then cherries, blueberries and raspberries quickly follow. Blink and you might miss it, as soon as the end of the school year approaches, use the phone number so that you don't! Coulters seems to have fair pricing for their fruit. Berries all are purchased by pint or quart, whereas cherries are purchased by pound. While they are delicious and worth every penny, be aware the cherries will add up quickly, they weigh more than you think! If you're looking for a fun day, rewarding when you bring home the spoils, check out Coulter farms. Remember to catch them at the end of June, and bring some sunscreen and water, it gets hot out there!

**Review for their pick your own strawberry**…read more The price for 2018 is $6/kg, which I remembered it was $5/kg when I last went here for the 2016 strawberry season. They have a pretty large strawberry field for customers to pick from. You can either bring your own container to buy a basket from them, and they will weight your strawberries at the end to determine the cost. There is no time limit of how long you stay in the field to pick, and they have free parking on site. It appears that this year the yield was lower than usual, as the strawberries were mostly smaller than the ones I picked back in 2016. However, they still taste really good despite the smaller size. The strawberries go back fairly quickly, so you should eat them within a day or two after picking, or store them in the freezer to make smoothies. They also have other produce available for picking, which I think corn is coming up later in July. You can go on their website to see what's available and the prices. They also have a market on the other side of the street for customers to buy fresh produce from, much like a farmers market

There is also gelato and ice cream offerings. I got myself a strawberry sundae that hit the spot. I also picked up some ambrosia apples, an unique maple chipotle pepper seasoning, red pepper jelly, strawberry cream honey (!!) and a corn dip. The last thing I hesitated on until a customer said it was amazing. Sold! I bought a frozen one to survive a bit longer and I haven't tried it yet, but considering the enjoyment of everything else, I trust it will be good. My sister got some fresh corn on the cob and her whole family wished she brought home more. So if you're in the area, do yourself a favour and see what Herrie's has to offer.
