From skincare to mugs, kitchenware, plushies and cards, there is always something for someone there. I've been to Outer Layer more times than I can count if I need to find a gift for someone. Even if I may not find the perfect gift for a friend and family, it's a great shop to browse at as well. Definitely a great spot for some unique gifts for yourself or others! Staff are friendly and I've never had an issue with them. My shopping experience here is pleasant and I never feel rushed or pressured to buy anything. Check out Outer Layer if you're around the Queen and Bathurst area!

Very rude staff. I did not feel welcomed there. OK selection of magnets and random stuff.read more

I spotted the cute snake keychain and the adorable new ram plush (the keychain was $33.95 though, when other retailers sell it for $32.50). They also carry various other knickknacks, but I was mainly there for the plushies.

Though things are a bit pricy, there were a ton of cute stationery supplies and small gadgets to choice from. Also, it seems like the target audience is more towards a younger audience compared to Hanji Gifts.

There's a gift-shop Battle Royale at the Front Street entry/exit of Toronto's St. Lawrence Market…read more I imagine the owners of the 43 year-old St. Lawrence Smoke & Gift Shop (SLS&GS), and the 10 year-old The Souvenir Market (TSM) shooting daggers with their eyes as they glare at each other across the walkway. I'll let you read my SLS&GS review (https://www.yelp.com/biz/st-lawrence-smoke-and-gift-shop-toronto) to find what's going on over there. As for TSM, there's plenty of cool stuff. IMHO, they win over the Smoke Shop when it comes to maple quality and selection. You'll find maple syrup, maple cookies, maple candies, maple butter, maple chocolate, and maple coffee and tea, just to name the most prominent. I also put TSM on top when it comes to sports stuff ... you'll find a sturdy amount of reasonably priced Toronto Raptors and Blue Jays gear. They also best their cross-walkway rivals in things the Smoke Shop just doesn't have (or has so little of I missed it): TSM wins on RCMP (a.k.a. The "Mounties") stuff, post cards (expensive, but excellent quality), Anne of Green Gables (the famed Canadian novel character) items, and on international flags. When it comes to the standard Toronto- and Canada-adorned items, both stores do well with t-shirts, magnets, mugs, bags, sunglasses, bags, and the rest. There isn't a lot of crossover, though, making both stores must-sees for the souvenir hunter. With a straightforward name like "The Souvenir Market" you expect an abundance and variety of great stuff ... and, boy, TSM delivers!

This is one of the better gift shops in Toronto. Parking here is difficult. There is metered street…read moreparking on the street in front of the store, there is also some residential parking within a reasonable walking distance. Both of those options were full, so I ended up parking in the commercial lot behind the store. It was very close to the shop. And I would recommend paying the fee, because it looks like it is patrolled regularly. They were giving tickets out when I was there. The shop has everything you would want in a souvenir shop. They had T-shirts, pajamas, magnets, toys, hats, sweatshirts, shot glasses, post cards, snacks, and a bunch a hockey and maple syrup stuff. The store is pretty well organized, the guy working was very nice and there goods are reasonably priced. I got all the gifts and souvenirs that I needed, with a bit that I didn't need. If you are in the market for some souvenirs while in Toronto, this should be one of your first stops.
