The Big Carrot Danforth Community Market is a beloved worker-owned small business that has been serving the community for over 40 years. The store offers a great selection of natural health products, organic and non-GMO groceries, and a fabulous selection of fresh food-to-go, even for those with dietary restrictions. Customers praise the knowledgeable and helpful staff, the amazing apothecary of herbal products, and the surprisingly lower prices compared to larger grocery chains. The store's green roof and indoor seating area add to the pleasant shopping experience.
The market is known for its excellent food bar, led by Chef Nick, who creates scrumptious dishes daily. Customers can also find deals, such as leftover food bar dishes available in the deli and a place to purchase sell-offs at the back of the store, which helps those on a budget. The organic produce is unmatched, and the market does a wonderful job of providing an amazing organic experience while also catering to customers' needs.
However, some customers have noted issues with the store's phone service, where the mailbox is often full, and calls go unanswered. Additionally, some customers find the prices higher compared to other stores carrying similar products and brands.
