“A little pricey, some items awkwardly placed but once you find them, youre good. Ex. You dont find all garbanzo beans in one place- they may be with 3 diff ethnic groups in 3 places. Staff is always lovely. They accommodate special requests. Lots of neat options. Clean.”
“This place was way bigger on the inside than it looked from the outside! Cool convenience store with a mix of regular convenience store stuff and homemade foods. Was very pleasantly surprised to see a great selection of non alcoholic wines and beers. There’s a really nice shop on the upper level with fancier home and personal items like leather purses, Irish wool sweaters, and birdhouses. The baked goods were good — Boston cream was pretty run of the mill, but the cinnamon twist and butter tarts were fantastic. Nice store in a little village.”
“the manager at this location is absolutely exceptional! She was so helpful and so kind to my daughter! I saw someone giving her a hard time about having to wear a mask which is absolutely ridiculous as she offered her curb side where she didn’t have to wear a mask or do her shopping for her! the older women on cash was also very kind. I’ll be back :)”
“I am not a regular shopper at Independent,I find them quite expensive but when I do go I am so impressed by how clean and organized the store is, the staff are friendly and helpful.when you go in and the shelves are stocked and you don't feel that your in staffs way while they stock or inconveniencing them by asking for help because they are busy stocking.Everything looks fresh and well displayed.I went in to buy 1 item for $2.49 ended up coming home with $70.00 worth of groceries.I feel this maybe my go to store I felt very comfortable there.”
“Dandelion Foods is more than just a great place to get fresh produce and interesting, healthy foods. It is a group of civic-minded, engaged owners - always ready to help Almonte and the wider Canadian community. Dandelion Foods has generously supported the local event, Reconciliation Through Art, at the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum, Sept. 30, 2024 - an event that answers many of the 94 Calls to Truth and Reconciliation. This events connected the predominantly non-Indigenous community with Indigenous Art, Music, Performance and Teachings. Many thanks to Dandelion Foods!”
