TLDR: funky gift shop with cool items to give as gifts, such as novelty socks and quirky pins. Name…read moresounds like a pot shop, but it's not, lol.
Funny story, so my husband asked me the other day if I've checked out the new gift shop in our 'hood. I was like which new gift shop? And he's like the one next to Alicja Chocolates. I'm like, that's a Pot Shop (ever since marijuana was legalized here in Canada, pot shops are literally everywhere. Every time a random store closes down, I get excited that maybe an awesome restaurant will open up, but then get super disappointed when it's just another pot shop, like do we really need 2-3 pot shops on every single block of commercial space?!? Sorry. End of rant.) Anyway, my husband's like "no, not Tokyo Smoke, the other side." I was like "something high, right? Also pot shop!" Then he said "Highly Fresh, not a pot shop." I didn't believe him and was determined to prove him wrong. Well what do you know, it wasn't a pot shop after all, lol.
Highly Fresh is a gift shop. They sell funky socks, cool pins, keychains, ribbons and stuff like that. They also sell cosmetics, stickers and greeting cards. Oh and they sell indie snacks, like air dried beef jerky (biltong), upcycled/imperfect dried fruits, and gourmet pretzels.
Prices are a bit on the higher side, but their food items aren't available at grocery stores or drugstores and they have unique and fun giftware.
Fun store to poke around if you're in the area.
Street parking only.
