    This rating is for the soda fountain/ restaurant. We walked into the pharmacy to kill time before…read morethe place we were going to opened up. In the back of the store is an old school soda fountain diner. Like Woolworths used to have when I was a small child. It took me back to being a kid and asking grandma to buy me a sundae or a bag of Fritos with a scoop of chili in it. All I wanted to do was look at the menu so I walked over and opened one up at the counter. As I was perusing an older gentleman told me about the Saturday special. Burger and fries for $4.75, $4.95 if you want cheese on it. His arrived as we were talking and it looked so good we decided to stay. I'm glad we did! We both had cheeseburgers. I never have onion on mine, it's too sharp of a flavor and takes away from the burger. Bun was lightly toasted, plenty of smatterings but not too much. The beef was grilled on a flat top and had a nice crispiness to it but still juicy. It's a thinner pattie but was plenty for the sandwich. You get a couple of leaves of lettuce and a thick tomato. It made me think of a Dick's deluxe if it wasn't mass produced. We had lunch at Lunchbox laboratory the day before and I have to tell you I liked this better! The fries were to die for! They are thinner like McDonald's fries but come unsalted. Which I liked because I'm an adult and can decide how much salt I want. Beautiful crispy fries served piping got. So darn good! The whole meal was perfection in a plastic basket. We really struck gold by chance and we are so happy for it. Definitely coming back!

    There's no soda fountain anymore. It used to have the best blackberry shakes. Closed when new owner…read moretook over from Don. Pre pandemic. Used to always get prescriptions here when I lived here.

The second time was when I asked the pharmacist for a antiviral and the third time for an anti fungal which I had a previous script. Both times I was told to go to the hospital. Look I get the location is bad but now all they have are self checkouts. And when I needed a bag they brought me a $2.78 bag. Insulting as I am disabled because of ON healthcare. Now unable to walk properly for the fifth time and still paying for most of my healthcare after losing my job in BC when I was having difficulty walking.

Despite being short staffed and it being a holiday, the pharmacy staff went above and beyond to fill my inhaler prescription today, so I didn't have to wait. I didn't realize how bad my breathing had become until I attempted the normally 5 minute walk to the store! One dose and I'm already breathing better. So, thank you. You all deserve a medal and a giant pay raise for the work you do, under increasingly difficult circumstances these days in healthcare.
