Full of unique items that are perfect for gifting…read more There's so many different options, from funny lapel pins & mugs to tasteful framed prints & incredibly-good smelling candles. It's a smaller shop, but everything is kept really organized and neat (it's even got "themed" areas, so things are placed similarly for whatever your taste). The prices are higher than other gift-type shops, but the products are so unique and well-made, it's worth the extra few dollars. I browsed around on my own, but the woman working made sure to be available if I needed any help- and I'm sure she would be awesome at helping narrow down what you're looking for if you aren't quite sure. Lots of variety, and ample parking behind the shop. I definitely will be back!!

In a very quaint Amish town, this is the perfect place to grab some grub. The people that own it even take Apple Pay. The ice cream, black cherry is excellent. It tastes like you're in a cherry forest :). It is some of the best black cherry ice cream I've had in a long time. Behind the café there is a gift shop, we did not go in however I hear that is a great place to get a nice gift for your friends and family from Canada. I would recommend the hotdogs over the cheeseburger, as it is more of a sausage. One thing that is different about this place is that they close whenever people are no longer on the streets, they really do not have a set closing time although it is usually between 6 and 7 PM.

This is a seat yourself cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered a half ham sandwich (it is actually a half of a sandwich) and a blueberry scone. The sandwich was nicely toasted. The scone was a good size and very very moist. I would come back again for their scones! Their chai latte is a mild chai - not too strong on the spices which makes it so yum!

O' Canada! A novelty…read morespecialty company that offers souvenirs, clothing, food items with a Canadian flair. The Great Canadian Gift Company has a online catalog where customers can make purchases as I am able to attain my favorite Canadian maple cookies brought into the U.S. The Canadian maple is worldwide renowned and opening the box the aroma of maple is fragrant. The cookies are fresh. In the past I was able to purchase these same maple cookies at Cross Border U.S. - Canada shopping by vehicle Duty Free many years ago which I greatly missed. Since I am unable to return to The Great White North I can now bring something from Canada into the U.S. Purchasing direct from manufacturer is always great without any hurdles. The maple cookies are very tasty. I had no problems with shipping from Canada into U.S. N.B. The charge will be in Canadian dollars onto my credit/debit card but my bank converts into American dollars.

It's always a treat to visit the Farmer's Market in St Jacobs. They have so much to offer, whether…read moreit's fresh produce, clothing, antiques, and much more. There are many vendors selling food and they're all busy! After wandering around the market for a while, it was time to get some lunch. With tons of choices, and everything looking good, we took a little while to decide. We ended up with a chicken pita, roast beef pita, and a roast beef sandwich. We also had a couple different types of freshly made potato chips. It was all good. Of course, we had to have some apple fritters, perhaps the most popular food item at the market. The lineup went out the door, even though it was drizzling a bit. It was worth the effort. They were hot, freshly made, and delicious! There is so much to see, do, buy, and photograph at St. Jacobs Farmers' Market. The produce market alone offers so many great photo opportunities of picture perfect fruits, vegetables, flowers, and more. There is an abundance of great subjects, with most of them being very delicious We explored the market a bit more after lunch, picking up some fresh fruits before heading to our next destination. Check tomorrow's post to see what else the market has to offer.

But I was so pleasantly surprised in this modern yet classic boutique on the main street. Half of the store is bridal / prom dresses and the other half carries women's clothing, accessories and more. The store is sectioned by colour and I found that very aesthetically pleasing. It was nice to see they carry Canadian / local brands so you are sure to really support local here. The quality of the clothing reflects the price, to me quality speaks volumes. The staff were helpful, masked, and supportive of my choices. I could have spent way longer in the store because each time I walked around I saw something new. They have a cute section of bride themed items so if you're in a bridal party or have a bride in your life, definitely come see the unique items they have here!
