We have been regular customers of this store for more than seven years. Overall, we are very satisfied with the store -- the products are fresh, the selection is good, and there is plenty of variety. However, there is one issue that I believe management should pay serious attention to. Unfortunately, some cashiers can be not just unfriendly, but at times openly rude, hostile, and aggressive when dealing with customers at checkout. Basic courtesy is sometimes noticeably lacking. There have also been issues with the way questions or concerns regarding payments, discount cards, and payment cards are handled. Customers should be able to ask questions about a transaction without being met with irritation or an aggressive attitude. I want to emphasize that this does not apply to all cashiers. Many employees are perfectly pleasant and professional. However, there are certain cashiers whose rude and aggressive behaviour appears to be consistent rather than an isolated incident. As long-term customers, we enjoy shopping here and would like to continue doing so. I hope management will take this feedback seriously and ensure that all customers are treated with basic courtesy, patience, and respect. read more

If you have not been here, you're missing out! Yummy's carries a massive variety of Western European, Eastern European, Baltic and Central Asian FRESH GOODS including a good selection of Korean and Japanese items. I love this place. I worked with a Ukrainian woman who turned me on to this place and it's been a regular shopping paradise for me ever since! read more

Their focus is Russian food, though other Eastern European (e.g., Ukrainian, Lithuanian, Moldovan) food is also present. It looks like the share of Ukrainian food reduced over the last couple of years, so I'm not going here that often anymore. I also think the staff is rather rude. However, they sell the best sour cherry buns (pyrizhky) in Canada. Very authentic. read more

I go to this place that I like every time I visit my family. However, be careful at the checkout, or when you pick up your deli from the counter. In my case, the product ordered and packaged was spicy head cheese ($1.99/100g). However, I was charged Pastore Italian Prosciutto, almost 3 times more expensive. This practice seems to be common in that store. It's not an "honest mistake". Be read more

This is the best yummy market location out of the two! Staff is always friendly and if you ask them, they always suggest something really yummy and tasty. This store is smaller than the maple location, but it feels very well organized and is always kept nice and clean Lots of free parking in front of the store read more

Yummy Market does not stand behind the products that it sells. If it turns out to be bad at the point of sale, then they do not offer a refund. Instead they point at their 7 day returns policy and say no return. I purchased four blocks of Hewitt's Goat Butter from Yummy Market on the last day of February 2025. It clearly says on the wrapper to "keep frozen until use". Despite this instruction, Yummy Market keeps the product in an open refrigerator. It turns out that one of the four blocks I purchased was bad. But I did not realize this until I was ready to use the goat butter about 2.5 months later. I rode my bicycle to Yummy Market yesterday to return the bad block of butter, with the receipt. Unfortunately though, it was after 7 days so Yummys Market did not accept the return. This policy tells me that Yummy Market, a grocery store, does not stand behind its product. If the product is bad when they sell it to the end-consumer, then it is the end-consumer that foots the expense, when it should be the grocery store. Very poor service and policy. I do not recommend Yummys Market. After purchasing the product, I place the goat butter in my pannier, then cycle for about 20 minute to get home (it is cold the end of February, so very low risk the goat butter goes bad) and then I put the product directly in the freezer. The butter remains in the freezer until a few days before I am ready to use it, at which point I transfer it from freezer to fridge. I mention this because I am very confident in saying that this block of butter was already bad when I purchased it. I'll say again, I do not recommend Yummy Market. They do not stand behind the products that they sell. read more

I sopped in the Yammy Marked (Finch & Dufferin) on April, 27. After making a payment I started packing the purchases while one of the staff members suddenly approached me, and without saying pardon asked me whether I payed for the goods then she demanded to exhibit the corresponding bill. I sowed her the bill and asked whether there was something wrong. No answer and no excuse. What an insolence!!! Shlomo Tiunov, PhD read more

OVERLY SALTED PREPARED FOOD AND BITTER STAFF For example the expensive cabbage rolls were sodium saturated and inedible. They went into the compost bin. Other hot prepared items were equally oversalted. They too, were inedible. Eventual response from management....they could care less. read more

Visiting Yummy Market is really a cultural experience!! I still cannot get over the buckets of marinated fishes!! I can understand about pickled veggies but a whole fish?? Now I am going to ask my Russian coworkers how they eat those?! They just looks super fishy! There are so many different products which I never see before.. all in Russian which I have no idea what they are...and all those loose candies... As a non Europeans/Russians/Ukrainians, I looked lost and stood out like a sore thumb.. But it proves how authentic Yummy Market is!! read more

Yummy market a very interesting European food experience. There is an aisle with loose candies from Russia, Moldova, Ukraine, Poland, Germany... They even have the Mozart candies (Mozartkugel).

Loved this international foods grocery store. They have a great variety of smoked fish, pickles, chocolates and cookies, that are otherwise hard to find. Prices are very reasonable, and cooked foods look really fresh. I tried some salted butterfish, smoked salmon, Polish pickles, and Dutch cookies. There are also lots of employees who are available to help. Will definitely be back! read more

I come here mainly for Russian/Eastern European specialty items that I cannot get anywhere else, and in that respect Yummy Market is excellent. Very good deli meats and smoked fish, great selection of pickled foods and breads. The candy and sweets aisles practically send me back in time -- and set me back a hefty sum of money. The customer service is fine -- for Russian, anyway. But unfortunately I have to agree with some of the other reviews: I cannot vouch for the quality and freshness of the produce and prepared foods, and even some of the sweets can be a bit disappointing (sweets/baked goods that are packed in-house are sometimes quite dry). You're better off with things that are sealed/industrially packed. And always check the expiration date. read more

Yummy Market - Typical haul from Yummy Market - International Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

This place is a gem if you are looking for food items from Eastern Europe. My previous forays here were limited to picking up smoked Salmon, Caviar and some cheese from that region. However I would recommend them for their baked goods and some dessert offerings (more on that later) The place is better accessed via car but one can venture out and take TTC here as well. Located in a strange location of the main drag this is one of those you blink you miss kind of place unless you know where you are going. To give you an idea this is a tad smaller version of Starsky's grocery stores. The variety is at par with Starsky's IMO so if you don't want to venture outside Toronto this is a safe bet. Plenty of hard to find items and oh so impossible to find ingredients. I am kind of partial to less sweet and richer desserts so try and find places that sell them. However this place disappoints in this case as they carry stuff from Dufflet (meh) and Rahier (Thumbs up) which is just fine in my book. They do make some items in house which were decent (opera cake) though nothing special and worth the trek. 4 Stars. read more

I came here looking for chocolate, dark chocolate specifically. Saw some 90% Cacoa stuff, but decided on the most foreign looking package I could find. No english = even better :) It had been awarded 5 medals this century? looked it up.. red October factory existed before the war and was state run at one time. weburbanist.com/2011/04/24/soviet-yum-yum-russias-red-october-chocolate-factory/ Tasted it - superb, dark chocolate it's like a Russian Aero bar. Anyways I left here with the chocolate, a crepes package (again very little english) and some peach nectar juice. It's nicely organized, clean and offer a wide array of Russian foods from the regular chained groceries. Just a note, you can't see the place from the road. It's deep inside the plaza where the Canadian Tire is located. read more

Unfortunately, today, on February 7th, 2022, I was discriminated by Yummy Market employee for not wearing a mask in the store while being medically exempt from It. My visit was to simple buy a few essential grocery products, yet after speaking to the manager, they simply said: "we don't care about your medical exemption, It our store policy NOT to serve anyone without a mask.

You feel like you stepped into a supermarket in Russia with beautiful brand names and foods you've never seen before. The prices are reasonable and the quality is high. The fresh fish, meat and produce sections are all pretty small. But the prepared food section is huge with lots of tasty options at very reasonable prices. I usually try to avoid places with yummy in the title, but this place is fantabulous. read more

The shopping carts aren't sanitized, and they require putting in unclean coins into the carts to use them. Avoid this store unless you want to come down with coronavirus, and you want to be treated like a juvenile delinquent who might steal their carts. read more

It's hard to not love a quality supermarket that has delicacies from around the world at a reasonable price. Some mustard from Germany, locally baked bread, Russian style sausages, smoked fishes, prepared foods which would take hours to make, and an entire feast can be acquired at a fair price. The selection of cakes, candies, chocolates, and other desserts allow you to give a variety of gifts at various price points, and it all looks and tastes great. The additional pluses of ample parking and great customer service seal the five star rating. read more

If you shop here, check prices and what it says on label. Your turkey can have a sticker for ground veal which is more expensive. Packages with smoked fish have different prices for no apparent reason, so you are gambling with your money. I hope these tips will be helpful. read more

I love shopping at Yummy Market. It's like going on a short trip to Europe. The variety of foods such as cheeses, deli, home made foods, breads, desserts, chocolates & teas are amazing! The products are made of the highest qualities. I find the service prompt and efficient. The store is always clean and there is plenty of room to move around. Especially now, with the C-virus in effect. I found that Yummy Market was a safe place to shop. read more

Loved it. So many products I haven't seen before. Great selection of smoked fish both hot and cold smoked. Amazing deli with prepared foods that look like they came out of my mother's kitchen.

They have a lot of variety when it comes to prepared food, cold cuts, breads, sweets and packaged stuff from USSR. Just stay away from the produce... I can't tell you how many times I've purchased avocados that are still hard but when you open they are rotten inside. I'm not sure why they can't get this part right? If you want good produce go across the street to highland farms.. read more

Yummy Market - Rotten avocados - International Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

After reading the web site ad for Yummy Market's Holiday Menu, I was determined to go there before Christmas and take home a sampling of their offerings for our Christmas feast. The only thing that has kept me away from this glorious Russian supermarket is the distance. Got here at last and for the past few days we've all been eating like czars and czarinas! First thing you need to know about Yummy Market is the rye bread. The beautiful awesome set of shelves that is devoted to every possible variety of very fresh mouth watering rye bread. Healthy artisan breads with seeds, with nuts (you simply MUST try their brown walnut bread), chia bread, sunflower seed bread, the list goes on. All day long the diligent ladies of Yummy Market are stacking newly baked bread with plastic gloved hands. All day I said. Stacking, stacking, stacking. It puts your average Canadian bakery, let alone supermarket, to shame. You need not take my word for it though. There are free samples of bread available next to every loaf. It was one such sample that my husband brought to me when I was choosing tiles for the replacement bathroom at nearby Keramin that got me hooked on this place three years ago. No foodie in her right mind would turn down such bread. I could completely understand the sentiments of the young Russian lady slicing my three loaves when she said she could not bear the selection of breads at Walmart after what she was used to at home and she got badly homesick. Homesick for good bread! Yes, you will get that way too, my fellow Yelpers! Or rather, you will come home for the first time to bread as it SHOULD be. I have only touched on that one thing. That's just a hint of what's in store. There is the glorious smoked salmon, rainbow trout, sturgeon, the vast selection of salamis, gourmet prosciutto, Westphalian ham, at the digital deli counter, the imported cheeses from France, Switzerland, the Netherlands, the entire aisle devoted to perogies, another aisle devoted to jams and jellies, yet another aisle devoted to teas, and oh yeah, there's the chocolate. No, not just Lindt though that's certainly there. There's quite a selection of chocolates from Vienna and Russia too. The chocolate section made ME homesick for the wonderful Polish delicatessens of my childhood in Parkdale. I grew up with all those delicatessens up and down Roncesvalles and I've been a spoiled princess about food ever since. Nothing could match the experience of those tastes. How I love those gorgeous imported chocolates wrapped in colourful glittering foil in the shape of Santa Claus, decorated eggs and Christmas ornaments. Anyway, I have gushed and rhapsodized enough. Go ahead, don't believe me. Go and check it out for yourself, Yelpers. read more

Authentic Russian food heaven to me. Also, produce, groceries, sweets, and a range of other products. Pros: - Tons of items, both fresh and prepared, to suit your fancy for Russian food - Fresh produce and baked goods that look amazing (not gluten free of course) - Deli meats and I believe I saw some different seafood, most likely fish - Wide range of perogies, borsht, salads, cheeses - You can grab a lunch to go - Extensive European candy selection - I went here since I can't have the baked goods! - Prices are pretty standard, some things are great deals Cons: - Not close enough to where I live (which might be good for my wallet) - Can be intimidating for those who don't speak Russian - the staff speak first in Russian and may not speak English. I got around fine with some staff who spoke English or by pointing. If you're shy, bring a friend with you! Definitely worth a visit if you're craving some European food, or some delicious treats! read more

As you walk in you go straight to the bakery section. The aroma of freshly baked bread is overwhelming, I should stay away from carbs and yet I am finding myself grabbing all these loaves of rye, multigranes, white,challah .. Also in that section freshly baked piroshki with all kinds of fillings: salmon, meat, cabbage, potatoes... Also vatrushki ( like a cheese filled pastry thingy). To the right you will find the cakes, my favorite is Medovik(honey cake) and Izba (sour cherry cake) the reason I like this store is that everything is made from real ingredients and not a lot of substitutes that makes that food delicious and not that bad for you. The cakes are topped with real cream and many use natural ingredients like honey. As we walk forward you will run into the cheese, meat section. You will need your ticket # just like in Starsky. Don't pay much attention to the frown on the staffs' faces. It's an Eastern European thing. Nobody smiles there, except today I found this lady in the ready made food section that was unusually pleasant. In the ready made food section I'd recommend the shashlyk ( kebobs), blinchiki ( similar to crepes) and everything else. The food is not extreme in taste but is not bland either. It's delicious and comforting without loads of MSG in it. To the left of this section you will find the smoked fish/ caviar/ salad department. I saw today some really good looking caviar $120.00/kg.... But it was really nice. In the dairy section you will find lots of organic, local yogurt, kefir and creams. And on the rest of the isles there is lots of chocolates, candy, preserves, etc If you have never been exposed to Eastern European culture I would recommend this store as you can experience something different and if you come from Easter Europe, then Yummy market is the place to be. It has a "welcome home" feel to it. read more

Strange specialty food from Eastern Europe. If you like that stuff, it is great. I am not a fan but my friends who are love the place.

Love that Chocolate aisle! European brand boxes of Chocolates perfect as Gifts. VODKA or Brandy Chocolate :D Long line up at Cheese & Deli. I couldn't even see anything through the crowd. People must line up for a reason. Smoked Fish and Salmon Caviar($$$$$) I didn't notice any Sturgeon Caviar but Smoked Fish a plenty. All I saw was $99.99 for Caviar while I faint. Cooked Food selection smells excellent. Rotisserie cooking those Whole Ducks filled the area with aroma. Lots of things look Doughy/Heavy. Bulk Candy aisle separate from Chocolate aisle. I couldn't understand most of the words on the wrappers. It's Russian or European Candy so fill-er up. Cakes & Desserts quite recognizable. Different names and styles but still the basic Pastry Methods. Maybe it's not a Cake night. Perogi filled more than one fridge. Flour Dumplings filled from side to side in Frozen status. Somebody must be OD'd on Perogies. read more
