A good place to go shopping on a rainy day... cheeses, fish, meat, breads, div. kinds of rice, fruits and vegetables... anything you desire.

The food is great. Grab a sandwich or some Portuguese food. Great bakeries, meat shops, etc. Parking near by is a $1 an hour. This is unheard of in Toronto.

First stop on my trip to Toronto after reading TA reviews and I went every day of my visit. No disappointments here. Wide selection of small stalls offering baked goods, cheeses, wine, meats, and various other items (like hats). The atmosphere is like that of an open-air market with small stalls but this is a lot more since there are... More

If I lived in Toronto I would get my food from this place. All was fresh and not overpriced for being in the city.

I found myself wishing that we lived in Toronto while wandering through St. Lawrence Market, 'cause it looked like a great place to do grocery shopping, with lots of tempting food options around. But there are options for tourists, too. We got a peameal bacon sandwich at Carousel Bakery (which apparently is a Toronto staple) -- it was basically ham,... More

The St Lawrence Market is a crazy busy market, an over-indulgence for the eyes with seductive aromas. At the back on the top floor is Busters Seafood (or something like that). They take fresh fish and serve it up simply in every way possible - on a salad, in a sandwich or whatever. Sit at the counter and watch them... More

The place to buy food in Toronto. Lots of good stalls with free samples to taste before you buy. Particularly liked Kozlik's Mustard. Well worth a visit.

We went here after reading all of the reviews. There is a large variety of food but make sure you go downstairs before choosing your food options. We unfortunately got stuck and only ate upstairs. You don't need to spend a lot of time here but if you are close and want some food this is the place.

We went to Woofstock which was next to the St. Lawrence Market. Inside the market were bakeries, fresh produce, butcher shops, flowers and wine. We didn't get to see everything but what we saw was impressive. How nice to have everything you need in one place. The neighborhood was amazing.
