Pulling up to the building in the middle of an industrial park, threw me off a little bit the first time we came, and the name of the store has changed to a more upbeat "The Dutch Store", however it is the same business it has always been for the last 30 or so years. There is room enough to park in front of the store for about 4-6 cars, so if it is busy, you might have an issue with parking, however this seems to never be the case, there's always space. This was the same store in the same building where my parents brought me when they were buying their Dutch Gouda Cheese and Speculaas (that a dutch spiced cookie you would eat with coffee) and now i'm doing the same today.
The store is in a smaller area, but it still carries all the necessary items, licorice, breakfast spreads and flakes, rusks, soups and soup mixes, dutch cheese (aged, medium, mild, and spiced), and might I also mention that the prices are very competitive and cheaper than Superstore or Co-op. For instance, an 1/8 wheel of cheese will run you about $17-20 at the Dutch Store where the same block will run you over $30.00 at any other grocery store, not to mention they won't carry half the selection of dutch cheeses either.
The staff is friendly and knowledgeable with all their products and helpful with any questions on what a particular product might taste like. They also accept Visa, Mastercard, Cash and Debit (with no additional "fees").
A truly remarkable experience and don't forget to grab a pack of Coca Cola Mentos on the way out. They also carry one of the largest selections of Mentos flavors in the city. read more
