You'll find the LCBO and local Agrarian Market (fresh breads, cheeses, fine coffee, home made meals) sharing the same parking lot. Some good grocery stores; we like the No Frills on Main Street. Ralph's Meat Market is good. Lots of lovely shops and restaurants. Wonderful book store. Also check out what's on at the Regent: they have movies and live music.
