Since the pandemic started, I have spent many Wednesday evenings driving up to…read moreWhitchurch-Stouffville to get groceries, hit a drug store, and grab some takeout for dinner. The town also conjures up fond childhood memories. Years ago, I knew Stouffville for its flea market. As a kid, my parents and I would drive up from the Beaches on Saturdays to check out the flea market. We'd get everything from fruits and veggies from local vendors, to coils of kolbassa (I loved the samples), to whatever was hip at the time. I remember loving wayfarer sunglasses. My dad got me a pair with a matching cord to dangle them around my neck. To this day, I still love wayfarer sunglasses. I also went to Chinese school on Saturdays. It was interesting how I managed to study in the car going to the flea market, walk around the market, eat lunch in the car, and head into school. It explains a lot about my time management skills and enjoying eating in my car to this day. Sadly, this flea market closed for good in 2016. Before I joined Yelp, I spent a considerable amount of time eating around Whitchurch-Stouffville. I then stopped. I resurrected my visits last year. I love the combination of being in a small town that continues to thrive, and being able to shop at stores that you get in major cities, but without the craziness. I probably spend more time at the Winners and Staples here than anywhere, including Markham. I simply enjoy how friendly folks are. Then, there's the food. It's so much better than I recall a decade ago. Zeal Burgers. The Zen Hakka and Thai Cuisine. Shawarma Ville. St. Louis Bar and Grill. Plates & Bowls. I am still learning about what's around here, but I love the variety. The town does have some cool events. There's the Stouffville Strawberry Festival that happens around Canada Day. Last year, it was cancelled, but back in the day, it was fun seeing all things strawberry. From strawberry pancakes to strawberry beverages, you get it all. You also can take in live entertainment and fireworks. Ah, memories! Last year, the Stouffville Country Ribfest in August was on, but it was different. It was in a drive-thru format. Finally, I have fond memories of seeing classic cars around town in August. The car show ran yearly. It was also cancelled due to the pandemic last year. I enjoy spending time in Whitchurch-Stouffville. You get the contrast between the countryside and the newly developed urban areas. I enjoy the drive up from Markham. Considering that I don't commute to and from Mississauga for work these days, this drive north is relaxing to me and is much shorter! (121)

Out of all the libraries I've studied at. This is the best one…read more I really feel like there should be a Tim Hortons or a very small cafe beside the library in the Leisure Centre. I keep thinking how awesome it would be to grab a coffee during breaks without leaving the building to buy food.

I think it's really rare to find a library where people can actually enjoy some quiet time, the individual study rooms provide a sense of privacy. I like how in the middle of all this, there's an outdoor location for those who want to be one with nature. My only complaint is that the library should stay open on Mondays or Sundays - similar to those in Markham.

Maybe, the kids would enjoy it better, but for adults, it was a total waste of money. Nothing is included, The syrup was okay, nothing exceptional. I bought an apple-cinnamon flavoured maple syrup and an apple cider. It was 40 mins drive from our place and we could not spend even an hour there. So there was an owl on display, then a sugar shack, a small one, there was no demonstration, but there were charts explaining the processes. Then, the shop with the cafeteria, where you could buy pancakes/ coffee/tea. After that you could go for the walk for maple trees, it was all dead by 3:00 PM. There was a horse chariot riding, paid of course!

Angus Glen Public Library is nice and roomy, with plenty of windows, skylights and high ceilings. There are plenty of seatings (sofas and seats) so you can just lounge around or you can use the private rooms if you want to have some privacy. There are good selections of current paperbacks and best sellers. Most of them are in great conditions and some of them brand news since the library is only 3 years old or so. I really enjoy spending a hour or 2 on my day off having a cup of coffee and lounging around using their wifi internet and read some magazines. Of course the best thing is the free wifi!!!

We went to the desk clerk and explained what happened, and we asked her when do the books get reshelved so we can find them and sign them out again. She took her time and went to the drop box area and looked through all the books and found the ones my daughter needed and signed them out for us. Wow, 5 stars for customer service experience !!! Totally made our day. :) 4.5 stars - 5 stars for this library!!
