I had the opportunity to volunteer here during my time on a not for profit board. What a nice bunch of people making an amazing difference around the World from a location in the countryside of Southern Ontario that you'd never find unless invited.

Beautiful selection of pictures and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. They helped us select a picture and the right size for our living room. Our picture was ready early, just in time for us to enjoy it for Christmas. I highly recommend you take a visit!

Reid Chocolates are the absolute best chocolates! They are high quality, taste great and there is always a variety of flavours, styles and types to choose from. We have been customers of Reid Chocolates for as long as I can remember. We purchased our wedding favours from them 17 years ago and people are still talking about how great they are. Every special occasion and holiday for us includes a delicious selection of Reid Chocolates and nuts.

We were on our way to family reunion in Canada, coming from the states, and found C’est Cheese Please on tripadvisor, and stopped in to get cheese for the party. The store was so cute, great selection of cheeses, both local and international. The owner was so helpful and helped us put together a selection for a cheese platter. Delicious. She also told us that scenes from The Handmaid’s Tale had been filmed right down the street in the square. The shop also had a nice selection of cheese boards and accessories. if you are in the area, stop by this wonderful store..
5. Grand River Brewing

It's hard to write about a place that no longer exists! It was one of the best microbreweries anywhere. Their Plowman's Ale, Millrace Dark, and longer ago, the Enigma Black Lager were among the finest beers you could find. The staff were friendly and knowledgable and the regular visits to refill the growlers were always a pleasure. When Magnotta bought the brewery the operation seemed to improve, but they closed it suddenly, saying that the brewing was moving to another location and that the beers would be available through the LCBO and their own store. The best ones have vanished and the LCBO no longer carries any. A sad loss of an excellent, popular and well respected brewery. Note: the date given below is a "plug", as the actual date s not available.

Lovely trail that winds along the river on the park road and then has a boardwalk with a pond that has many turtles. Many Canada geese and ducks on the river. Also leads to other trails throughout the city.

The Old German Woolen Mill ruin near Glen Morris along the Cambridge to Paris rail trail is an unexpected encounter with history. It’s cut stone walls and raceway arches and overall imposing height are testimony to the skills of the stone masons who built it. Access is now signed as no trespassing, although it can be viewed from the rail trail or off a roadway in front of the ruins.

Love this trail! Its easy terrain and full of natural beauty and wildlife. It takes you right beside the Grand River and end at Riverside Park. A portion of the trail also has a separate path for bikers as well. I recommend going in the evening if interested in seeing lots of wildlife, we've have the best luck at that time. We have seen water fowl, tortoises, deer and even beavers recently!
