I'm not sure in many other cities a local, independent grocery store could not only survive, but…read morethrive... But HIll St. Is still around and definitely thriving. Their original location moved a few years ago up the road, to a fancier and slightly more spacious location. They still stock mostly local products where possible, specialty items, hard-to-find things and some luxurious treats. Produce is some of the freshest around! Their flagship location on the corner of hill st and Patrick st also has a bottle shop and a florist attached for all your emergency fancy dinner party needs in a hurry. However... the rows are NARROW and when this place gets busy, it gets BUSY. You literally get your ankles banged into, trolleys whip around corners and no matter where you stand, you're always in someone's way. It's almost as if people go into a daze looking for the perfect cumquat they forget to mind where their trolley is going.

They do coffee, though I've never tried it, and hot soup in winter. Unlike the original Hill Street they don't do wine, but there is a bottleshop next door. It's much frequented by locals, particularly after school/work, at lunchtime, and on weekends, so the car park can get a little crowded.
