First, I'd like to sat that I like the Low Carb Grocer. I've been a customer for several years…read more It's kind of specialized. It exists to serve people who are on special diets. I've been on a gluten free low card diet for many years and it really helps me. The nice thing about this chain is that they have a lot of diversity in products. I can get product here that I just can't get any place else. They have brought in product as well in my behalf, and sourced the best products out there for people in this type of diet. The staff is fairly knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely helpful. I've always left with what I need or a special order being placed. They also have an online store. Great place, great experience!

My husband and I have been shopping at Nature's Emporium in Newmarket for almost 10 years. We…read morereally couldn't say enough about what an incredible place Nature's is. It's the place to shop for everything organic. And every department has amazing people working to help you find and buy what you're looking for - there's the amazing John and his team in the produce department who make sure all the gorgeous organic vegetables and fruits are at their very best; there's fabulous Anna, Jan, Jordan, Dayle, Mark, Yulia, and Michael at the deli counter, all professional, friendly, and ready to help you take home some of the many fresh deli meats and vegan options, and delights and treats of all kinds. You can even get a hot and fresh spelt or gluten-free pizza made by the incredible Barbara or Ricky. And in the kitchen, wonderful Peter and Scott and a crew of amazing chefs and cooks create incredible dishes and soups to enjoy in-store or to take home. In the grocery section, the fantastic Jeremy and Elaine and a team of other hardworking colleagues keep stock on the shelves and keep everything organized and accessible--Nature's even has a large and varied selection of organic nuts and dried fruits. And over in the incredible supplement section, the very knowledgeable Bev, Linda, and Olivia, to name a few, are our constant go-tos for information on vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and for the wide range of other products available. And Karen and her team do a fabulous job of looking after all the health and beauty products in the store. And when you've filled up your cart and are ready to check-out, you have a team, including the incredibly efficient Pinar, Swapma, and Jacob, to ring all your groceries up and check you out. We like to end our shopping experience with a lovely coffee or smoothie at the juice bar. Nature's Emporium is an experience--an amazing experience, and one that we highly recommend. If you go for the first time, you will not believe your eyes. And you'll want to keep coming back. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Way way way better than whole foods and believe me, I used to be a whole foods addict (but after you come to farm boy, you realize how overrated and overpriced WF is) The staff are pretty friendly here and they have a lot of items made in-house (farm boy exclusive only!) I really recommend: - the berry filled jelly mini donuts (legit the FRESHEST and softest jelly donuts I've ever had. These don't last me longer than a day) - jalapeño cheddar little bread biscuits (they're near the front - dude, they're amazing) - in house made sparkling water - a better tasting, cheaper la croix in insane flavours (the orange vanilla one tastes like a creamsicle....In sparkling) - the bagels!! Herb and cheese to be exact- nothing compares to montreal bagels...but this comes pretty damn close. - the ice cream sandwiches!!! OMG. These are it. - the house-made soup! So so so good, hearty and healthy for you. They also have a cute village juicery IN STORE. I love almost everything about this place - the only thing I've noticed is that sometimes I'm followed around/closely watched and monitored and I definitely notice it - however this is just something I unfortunately face being a minority in a very Caucasian city and I'm finally starting to pick up on it. Ugh, please stop following me...I spend almost $200 every week here. Please :(

Tip: This store has the best pasta section…read more Last Saturday, I was shopping at my usual Walmart in the Copper Creek part of Markham. I was low on orzo. Sadly, this store didn't have any. It had the more popular pastina as the only small pasta. Bummer. I needed orzo. While in Aurora, I passed by this Longo's. I know that Longo's has a decent selection of pasta. This store ended up exceeding my expectations. I had been in this plaza a month or so ago. It has Wild Wings and Booster Juice that I had visited. It was time to go grocery shopping here. I found a parking spot fairly close to the exit. I don't mind walking a bit further to get to the entrance. It's better to be closer to the exit when you're hauling groceries. That thought could be just me. Prepared sandwiches greeted me. I was transfixed by the prepared foods. I love the empanadas at Longo's that you can grab and heat up. I also liked seeing meal kits. The floral section was pretty. It was nice looking at the orchids. There were lots of roses. I found the pasta section. Each Longo's has a similar setup, which makes finding what I need to be a breeze. This store has an extensive selection of pasta. I saw heart-shaped pasta just in time for Valentine's Day. I was happy to see small pasta varieties by Italpasta. The big, um, small four were all there: - Acini de pepe - Alphabet - Orzo - Baby shells I was elated to grab a box of orzo. I felt so accomplished finding what I needed. I was intrigued seeing charcoal-greyish khorasan pasta. I may need to return to give it a try. Naturally, I wandered over to the bakery section. Butter tarts. Cheese sticks. Croissants. Cake. I wanted it all. There was a cake loaf sale. If I bought a loaf, I got a second one for free. I ended up getting banana walnut and carrot. I got the nicest woman at the checkout. She looked at the loaves and was surprised that this deal was going on. There were a bunch of BOGO deals, including cosmic apples that I was tempted to get. I had my Longo rewards barcode scanned. I then paid with a credit card. Done! I put all my items in my reusable bag. I thanked the woman and happily left with my goods. The loaves are yummy. I tend to have a slice of each flavour when I feel the need to have a snack. I'm glad that I got them. I enjoyed shopping here. When I'm in the area again, I'd stop by for my grocery needs. (35)

Best staff , always clean and orderly…read more This is the place I go for produce and meat as they are top quality . This week I dropped in very early just after the store opened to get some fish and produce for my wife's birthday dinner. The young man behind the meat counter came around and helped me select the proper fish, he then went out back and selected some fresh shrimp for me as well. Exemplary customer service. Produce at this location is the highest quality in town so I picked what I needed and left in short order with everything to make her special dinner. Rave reviews followed later that day. Thanks Longo's .

I order my plants by late February or March and they are delivered in excellent shape in their unique mailing packaging for May 24. This year I received a text notice to say my plants were being shipped and to look out for them! This is why you need to order a minimum number of plants. When I had a large yard I would get dizzy trying to keep my order under $150. This year for my balcony I ordered the kitchen herb garden. Thirteen plants ( I think) for an unbeatable price. I have ordered essential oils for my laundry spritz water and they always arrive safe and sound. My only wish is that they would print a few uses on the back of the plant ID plastic identifiers, or on the invoice. This is the best nursery ever and the plants are clean, no little travellers! Thanks to all the hardworking staff!
