You can now grab freshly made bowls at a Toronto Loblaws! The grocery chain just introduced a new in-store element that is super exciting. 

Located at the Loblaws at Maple Leaf Gardens, 60 Carlton Street, the restaurant is called Globōl

Known as a “grocerant” which is a play-on for combining a grocery store and a restaurant, it offers takeout as well as delivery for delicious globally inspired bowls.

The Globōl website states in more detail about the inspiration behind the concept, “Our menu is inspired by the stories of international street food legends, hardworking farmers and loving mothers & fathers whose crafts have been shaped by generations in their homeland and who personify the spirit of each dish.”

Created by Pierre Jutras and Nipun Sharma, Globōl serves six different types of bowls.

These include beef fajita, chicken shawarma, butter chicken, jerk chicken, General Tao, and pad Thai.

Plus, each of the meals are only $12!

Grocery shopping doesn’t have to feel like a chore, in fact, it can be a weekly event to look forward to. I know some would say it’s extra to want to shop at pretty grocery stores. However, all of us will be shopping for food for the rest of our lives, so why apologize for craving a relaxing grocery shopping experience? After all, cooking is an art so why can’t grocery shopping also be? I have no shame in saying that I want my avocado toast and bougie groceries stores, too! My shopping cart is as open as my heart, and my eyes are always on the lookout for aesthetically pleasing things.

Foodies take note because here are 7 of the most beautiful grocery stores in Toronto!

Specializing in artisanal and fine foods, the displays are beautifully built, making produce and packaged goods look like an interactive art installation. Custom services include catering, personal shoppers, floral services, and local delivery – but why would you even want delivery when the store is this modern and stunning?

Loblaws Carlton Street

Being one of the largest grocery chains, we all know and love Loblaws. While each location is well kept, the Carlton Street store at the old Maple Leaf Gardens is extra pleasing. The large and airy space includes all your favourite essentials like a gorgeous baker section, impressive seafood and butcher shops, drool-worthy patisserie, a fresh juice bar, and more.

Curating specialty brands and products, Whole Foods includes all the usual departments, along with a massive bulk section, personal care section, and healthy/organic pet section.

Longo’s Leaside

Longo’s isn’t necessarily known for being a specialty grocery store, but similar to the Loblaws flagship, the Leaside location is decked out to the nines. The modern, open-concept feel and neatly lined shelves give this particular store an upscale vibe. Farm fresh produce, artisanal treats, and a wide assortment of delicious prepared foods, seal the deal thus affirming Longo’s Leaside a well-earned spot on this list.

Organic Garage is the newest boutique grocery store chain giving other healthy grocery chains a run for their money. Currently, Toronto has a few locations, with the newest opening in Liberty Village and another on the way in Leaside. While the grocery store has built its model on selling healthier food for less, the in-store appearance is deceiving. With a loft-inspired feel featuring rustic wood, exposed brick, and even wall graffiti, Organic Garage looks incredibly high-end. Along with a dose of pleasing aesthetics, this one-stop-shop features all your foodie needs with produce, meat, health products, a bakery, and more!

We’ve got some good news! Finally, Ontario will be making our lives MUCH easier this coming spring, by expanding beer and cider sales. They will be expanding to 87 more grocery stores across the province – almost 40 of which are in the GTA.

This will bring the total number of grocers authorized to sell these products in Ontario up to 370. Ultimately the goal is to have beer and cider available in up to 450 grocery stores, including up to 300 that will also sell wine.
