Best Gourmet grocery store in Canada

M	Max Howe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this place. Cindy and the other owner, not sure what his name is yet, are pleasant people and accommodating. They have delicious homestyle food like shepherds pie, pulled pork sandwiches etc. K cups, gourmet desserts meats and cheeses, ice cream - you name it, you can get it here. I come here a few times a week for my lunch breaks and always leave smiling.
d	david Dossett on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great local store run by wonderful people. They carry an amazing selection of unique and local meats, cheeses, etc. Definitely a must-see in downtown Kingston!
A	Alex Franklin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had a good magnet selection from local artists. But the owner/employee was extraordinarily rude to us for holding opposing opinions. She called us "brainwashed by people who tell lies about Canadian colonial history," and told us she felt sorry for us. She was very aggressive in her language and minimized the extent of the violence done against Indigenous people in Canada. She even followed us out of the shop and implied she wanted to keep "some people" out of the country. Really strange experience. If you work in a store specialising in Canadian paraphernalia, you should be able to handle very legitimate critiques of the state without getting emotional and insulting your customers.
L	Laura Smith on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely store with interesting locally sourced items. I particularly enjoy the chocolate bars and truffles and their pre-made frozen meals!
L	Lisa Flint on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing store - I’ve placed orders through their Facebook page and they have shipped to us on the West Coast without hesitation. I make sure to tell family and friends in the Kingston area to check out this awesome store! Quality products at reasonable prices and very friendly service! You won’t be disappointed!!!
N	Nellie Baker on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was heading back to Ottawa from Toronto and decided to break up my drive and visit Kingston. I ventured in to this quaint little establishment and was glad to see a lot of local products and beautiful indigenous products. The owner, Cindy, knew the names of the art on the wallets and travel wallets and the stories behind them. She even offered me a coffee as I browsed. Love this type of store that supports Canadian Native small artists and unique products at fair prices.
F	Faisal Amir on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is amazing and a gem in Kingston. The owners are very helpful and very engaging. With a lot of the standard gift shops that have closed in town it’s even more important now than ever to have a presence like GBC around. Their items are very well sourced from many local areas. I was planning to get some generic items from another store and have them delivered to my parents when I found out about GBC through Google and Facebook. They have a great collection of boutique cookies, jams, chocolate covered snacks, pasta, sauces, etc. and the prices are also really good! I paid less than 50$ for 6 (several boxes of cookies, jam, and chocolate covered pretzels and ginger) items with a gift box and wrapping, with the delivery and friendly service. On top of that, the owners will gift wrap your stuff and personally deliver to the recipient in a very timely manner. I’m definitely going to use this store again. Just a tip to whoever is looking, this is a much better option than edible arrangements or flowers or cakes from retail stores.
m	monrob on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely owners to interact with both husband and wife I believe. They have the best souvenirs that are hard to find in the GTA area and very unique ones too. Also, there are a variety of ice creams so please do visit here if you're dropping by this summer or any season I'm sure you'll have a warm welcome! :)
