Shopping in St Lawrence

The Esplanade, which runs through the middle of the St. Lawrence neighbourhood, contains retail stores and services that meet the day-to-day needs of the St. Lawrence residents. The Esplanade's restaurants, bars, and specialty stores also appeal to tourists as well as Torontonians from other neighbourhoods.

St. Lawrence residents have the luxury of being able to walk to the St. Lawrence Market, where they can purchase everything from fresh seafood to farm fresh eggs and organic chicken. The South Market is open all week long while the north building, also known as the ïfarmers market', is open only on Thursdays and Saturdays.
