I had yet another wonderful experience with General Brock’s Commissary recently, ordering a fun box of local goodies to be sent out of province.
It was my first meeting of their Assistant Manager, who in true GBC form made several helpful suggestions, was enthusiastic about my purpose, patient with my dithering indecision, and cheerfully bent over backwards to make the tricky parts of my last-minute order work well.
Not only are they well-stocked with lots of Canadian products for these high-tariff times, much of what I saw was not only from Ontario, but local to the Kingston area.
I can’t recommend these folks enough.

Lots of neat items here, fun talking to owner Chris who knows a lot of history about Kingston. Nancy found a couple of cool mugs, one by local artist Joanne Gervais.

What a breath of fresh air this business and these people are. Couldn't be more friendly or supportive as we accumulated some terrific items for a gift box. Offering us a complimentary coffee and conversation while they put the package together for us was the icing on the cake. Customer service as it used to be

Good maple syrup ice cream, it's a cute souvenir shop. There was free ice tea sample, a refreshing treat for a hot summer afternoon. They also had these nice local art post cards

Lovely little shop with a lot of Kingston/local items that are great for tourists. The staff is always very friendly here, even giving me the history of the town crier when I first came to kingston.They have a nice selection of fudge, teas, and ice-cream.

Here I bought a souvenir (cap). I liked this shop, it's a beautiful shop. What I liked most was how the owner spoke to me as a customer. The conversation and the owner were extremely friendly and interested, which really impressed me as a German. I can only highly recommend the shop. If I spend another vacation in this part of Canada, I will definitely buy something here again.

We visited this gem of a store today while in Kingston. The store is really charming and the owners wonderful! They were incredibly helpful and shared a couple of stories while we were exploring. It is a must visit place when you’re in Kingston. We already can’t wait to go back!

Lovely little place with some great food and reasonably priced maple syrup. If you are looking for a souvenir, you should pop in.
Lovely store carrying a large variety of products. Owners are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I always drop in when I'm downtown. We'll worth a visit.

What a great store! They have so many treasures inside - delightful souvenir type items with or without the city name on them (trivets, mugs, coasters, etc). They also have beautiful china mugs, lots of deli type food items, a huge variety of K cups, socks, aprons, tea towels, and many other great gifts for yourself or family or friends. Oh, I forgot the Kawartha ice cream during the summer season. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Cindy and her husband are the kindest people you will ever meet. Great selection of beautiful products and tasty foods. A true gem. Everyone must visit at least once (tourists and residents alike).

Lovely owners to interact with both husband and wife I believe. They have the best souvenirs that are hard to find in the GTA area and very unique ones too.Also, there are a variety of ice creams so please do visit here if you're dropping by this summer or any season I'm sure you'll have a warm welcome! :)
