    Take a picture of your license plate. Luckily I listened to my Yelp friends. Regardless of what…read moreyou're buying, this is one of the first questions asked. The bathrooms live up to the hype. The friendliness of the staff exceeds any imaginable hospitality you may think of. Finally you can feel the pride and care of this place. Family owned and proud. Worth the stop.

    Conveniently located before the border into the US, many liquors are clearly labeled if made in…read moreCanada. When entering and leaving, be sure to wait for the proper gates to open and close, and there is only one way to go in and out. As another reviewer said, make sure you know your license plate number too. Staff was able to tell me that if I buy enough alcohol that paperwork would be filled and I would be charged extra at the border is all, but no real limits seem to be present otherwise. I am sure if you buy a huge quantity you may need to be able to briefly explain yourself such as if you have a detailed list ready of who you want to give to and why. Staff is very helpful about which liquors have stronger flavor and which have stronger liquor. This is a basic concept that I feel has gone over many others' heads because they just want to sell me something based on some potentially correct science that may be entirely useless for my taste buds. The variety is here if you want that last minute mainstream grab or you get something here that may be harder for you to get elsewhere. There are several varieties of maple liquor. If you love sweeter tasting and a pretty looking leaf bottle and are from the US, get what I got. Sounds like I need to look for a teddy bear and use the bathroom next time by the other reviews!!

    I feel 'guilty' (well, not really.......) ripping Toronto/Ontario... but the reality is; taxes are…read moreextremely high and items/goods are tremendously overpriced. A bottle of vodka at Duty Free USA is $21.50.. Same bottle in Ontario is $69.50............................... (lots of dots to ponder), reality/truth is ONTARIO is a terrible place to shop/buy. After spending a few weeks in 5 different states; if you have the means/opportunity, go to AMERICA!!! Regardless if the dollar is .80 cents to the dollar or even .65 cents to the dollar. Shoes, clothes, food, drink are just more affordable. You can go to a bar and have a drink for $2.. $2.50; try to get a drink in Toronto for under $9 (rarity). In other words; duty free makes a lot of sense. As does shopping/supporting America and it's retailers; there's no glory in being taxed 13% and paying double for 'stuff' in Ontario.

    Even though the address here is correct, the image on the Yelp map does not display the store in…read morethe correct location, and possibly for a check-in. It is actually on Wellsley Island, on the America's side just before you cross northward into Canada. If you are going south from Canada into the US, you want Thousand Islands Duty Free. As you would expect, there are deals here on a variety of items, most notably alcohol, cigarettes, and cologne, but other items, souvenirs, etc. Prices and procedures are standard. Shop carefully - some things are very good deals, some are not. The facility is clean, the rest rooms are well maintained - and a good place to stop first if there's a long line waiting to enter Canada. There a few benches outside and an area which offers you a great view of part of the St. Lawrence River and some of the nearby islands.
