From adorable themed ceramic salt shakers, to linen aprons, hand blown glasses in many colours, wooden cutting boards, or the tiniest most elegant set of gold cutlery -- they have it. It's the perfect shop for anyone looking to spend $15-25 on a simple gift, or to fix a problem you didn't know could be solved (like finding the perfect mess-free cookie scooper). The staff are usually friendly, though as a younger shopper I notice they tend to be more willing to chat with older shoppers rather than me. Perhaps to be expected in a home décor shop, haha.

I am a bit embarrassed that I have been in this store several times and had no idea what it was…read morecalled. I had to Google the name since I just think of it as "the other kitchen store" in the Glebe across from the Glebe Emporium. (Not counting CA Paradis, which is a whole different league altogether.) J.D. Adam is a gem that is easy to overlook. I went looking for a nutmeg grinder. The Emporium had one type, JDA had three (!) that were specifically for nutmeg and a range of other graters that would also work. If you are a cook, you will understand how important it is to have the right tool. If not, well, then none of this review makes any sense to you anyway. Price are good. Service is terrific. Friendly and helpful without being in your face. However, with the amount of stock they have in a small space, it is a good idea to just ask for what you need rather than hunt around. Nutmeg grater with cheese grater, not nut cracker, for example. I ended up buying microplanes and tea towels and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. (If you understood what I bought, then you should visit JD Adam yourself.)

I have been here twice in the past week. I got to experience shopping here during the weekend and…read morethe weekday, and boy, what a difference. Since the store is pretty tiny, it can feel pretty crowded, especially during the weekend, which was not very pleasant, but the lines were not too bad. I knew exactly what I needed to get, so I got in and got out in a matter of 10 minutes. I have to say the cashier serving us that day was so friendly and cheerful. Bonus points for that! It is quite opposite during the weekday. I stopped in again on a Monday evening and it was pretty quiet. The cashier asked us if anyone had helped us during our visit, and that really made me think. We were never asked if we needed help finding anything on both visits. That can be a good or bad thing; if you like to shop in peace without the hassle of sales associates then rest assure, you probably wont be getting any sale pitches during your visits. The down side is, if you are having trouble finding an item and nobody has offered assistance, I can see that being frustrating; especially if there is not an associate in site. From what I noticed the associates usually keep to their selves, stocking or cleaning, so the only customer service you will probably receive is at checkout. The store carries EVERYTHING that you can possibly imagine for your home, but it will cost you a pretty penny! They do have a lot of high end items, but also have some bargain items set up at the entrance of the store. Their return policy is awesome. Apparently you can return anything, anytime, no questions asked. My advice, avoid this store on the weekend if you hate crowds. P.S.I believe they have a larger store in Barrhaven!! :)

The person who helped us out was very very patient! We were there for over half an hour. Being that it was our first "good quality expensive knife" We wanted some information on the type,the quality,the handling,the longevity etc. The guy was such a trooper. He could have gotten annoyed at the first 15 mins but he didn't if anything he kept pulling out different knives or putting them away after process of elimination. He would listen to my likes versus the likes or dislikes of my s/O and finally he found a medium size knife that complimented both our needs/wants/expectations. This is the best place for anyone who's looking for a knife I'm definitely coming here for our second one. There's no pressure to purchase, no judgments when i said I had 0 knowledge. We came in saying we wanted more info on knives and we left with a knife and a sharper. Semi long drive but definitely worth it! Excellent service.

Upon exiting the store, my ladies had HUGE smiles on their faces. On the drive home, they couldn't say enough about the customer service, product selection and knowledge, and the price for the quality of knife that was purchased.
