    I ordered the Montreal smoked meat sandwich on rye and oh wow one of the best sandwich's I've ever had. Great flavor and awesome portion. Definitely come back again.

    The large sandwich is way too much food. I am stuffed but so satisfied with the sandwich Great Canadian prepares. I had the assorted cold cuts and my wife had the corn beef. These sandwiches are made to order with a variety of toppings and great bread. We had the combo and the freshly cut fries make for a really good side for the sandwiches. Service is quick and friendly and the inside is large and comfortable with ample seats. My only issue is the location but if you have people willing to drive out of the way - then there is no need to change.

    Visited here again! We hoped that they would have some holiday special ham ready but it was not available now - available soon, and they are taking orders! Got a sandwich combo with Kielbasa (white bread). Choose coleslaw, lettuce, tomato, onion and mastered. Again, impressed by the generous amount of meat and the combo was just around $12 (with small fries, drink, and it's before tax). Their fries had crunchy exterior and a light, fluffy interior, feels full of good potato flavor!

    I've been wanting to try this place for awhile as it's always advertised on skipthedishes. I finally tried it last month and now I've had it twice since! They have so many options and great deals for delivery. The serving size is massive and you can customize your deli sandwich just the way you like! The ingredients are fresh even during delivery. They also have amazing seasoned fries. I definitely recommend trying the Great Canadian if you are in the mood to level up your sandwich game.

    I have been going to this place since 2018 and it unlike most places it hasn't changed. The only change was expanding the units to make a beautiful storefront with seating and adding sides of fries or Mac and cheese. The hot smoked meat or the smoked turkey are amazing. It is affordable dependable and great quality. 6.50$sh for a small sandwich + 1$ for cheese. Great price and portion!

    Its in the very back of a plaza and takes up quite a few units. The other units are meant for storage so they have signs pointing to Unit#9 as their main entrance. The outside of this place does not do it justice! Inside is beaaauutiful ! The decor is very welcoming and the air condition is really nice on a hot summer day. They have a lot of different meats you can purchase frozen in their freezers and also a menu to order fresh sandwhiches. We chose the Pork schnitzel and the Montreal smoked meat sandwhich. For a large $5.50 its a steal!! The portion they give is very generous! The Montreal smoked meat sandwhich is so good! It reminded me of the sandwiches from Schwartz in Montreal! The Pork schnitzel was just okay in comparison. It was my first time trying schnitzel and i wasnt too impressed. The service is great too, and you can put on as many toppings as you wish for free too (Cheese is extra). In total our bill came out to be just a little over $12. They have a station for pop and water you can refill your drinks as you please. Highly recommend this place!

    Located in an unassuming industrial plaza, you would miss it if for not the line up of people and cars. What a hidden gem and relatively easy to get to on the way to cottage country (exit Thickson Road off Hwy 401, Whitby, ON). Perfect place to grab your deli favourites (Montreal Smoked Meat is my go to) as well and other items such as schnitzels, chilli, soups, poutines, and grilled foot long sausages. Completely satisfying lunch for relatively cheaper prices and better quality than your chain sub/hoagie place. Combos include sandwich, with your choice of fresh house cut fries, soup, chili or coleslaw, and a drink. Plenty of boxes items also to bbq at home. The Montreal Smoked Meat is so tender and piled high served on your choice of bread and toppings. Will definitely recommend and visit again any chance I get.

    Stopped by after seeing this business listing pop up during my search for nearby-ish meat market…read more Wild Forks sells ONLY frozen products and we picked up some marinated sirloin, bavette steak and bacon rounds. I had initially wanted to try their beef chuck ribs but it did not look as good as it did on their website so I passed on it. Instead, I settled on the marinated sirloin that the Wild Fork food truck outside was offering as a free sample, as these were so yummy. We are usually not big sirloin fans but their samples were THAT good that we ended up buying the exact product we sampled. I am not sure if the food truck is there all the time but when we visited on a Saturday afternoon, the Wild Fork food truck was parked in front of the store in the parking lot, offering generous amount of free samples of their product. When we went, they were offering the marinated sirloin and pulled pork, both of which were delicious! I would also like to commend them for keeping their store impeccably clean, including the washrooms for their shoppers. It was refreshing to see a store like this that offers washrooms for their shoppers and keep it spa level clean. Thank you! Our first visit was such a pleasant one and I can't wait to try out more of their product soon!

    Fantastic service, very knowledgeable staff and amazing selection of frozen meats, also the store…read moreis impeccably clean!

    Was doing a Bridal Shower for my daughter in law in May, I decided to order everything at one…read morestore. ordered 4 cakes, scones, 60 macrons, flowers, cupcakes, cookies. From the start the staff was so helpful! Jackie and Margaret in bakery had everything ready for me labelled and fresh as can be. They even helped me to my car with it. Jess at front end helped with the floral as what I wanted would not come in on time. She made a phone call and Farmboy in Pickering shipped the flowers to the Whitby store. wow. Just when I thought customer service doesn't exist anymore. Well it does at Farmboy. Thanks to Bakery and Floral for making my experience joyful and a good memory. Mrs. P.

    This Farm boy location is a gem ! Everything is so clean and orderly ! Staff are super friendly and…read morethey have cute monkeys hanging in the vegetables/fruits section ! The bakery section is my personal favourite !!! We bought macadamia white chocolate cookies and cheese croissants awhile back and my bf and I were in love ! Today we bought chocolate croissants and a watermelon from there and it did not disappoint ! The chocolate croissants are sooooooo delicious and tasted super fresh . The chunks of chocolate in it left me craving more with every bite . Initially I was just going take a few small bites cause of the calories but it was too delicious that I ended up devouring the whole thing :/. The watermelon was also super sweet and juicy . For bags , you can choose a brown paper bag (25c) or a reusable bag (99c). Highly recommend everyone to check Farm boy out especially the bakery sections!
