Nut Shoppe - St. Andrew's Parish

We easily found this restaurant using Google Maps, which led us to a convenient parking lot near the entrance. During the Christmas season, they had a special selection of international sweets displayed outside the store. They offered a wide variety of treats such as chocolate, liquor chocolates, cookies, gingerbread, gummies, marzipan, and nuts. The staff was friendly and didn't pressure us to make a purchase, allowing us to take our time browsing. It was difficult to choose from the extensive selection, but we settled on BBQ corn nuts (10/10 for flavor and crunch), salted peas (10/10 for flavor, could use more salt), gingerbread heart cookies (10/10 for softness and flavor with a thin chocolate coating), butter florentines, chocolate covered espresso beans (boyfriend's favorite as a coffee lover), and marzipan mini chocolates. The prices were reasonable and we will definitely be returning in the future. Highly recommended!

Here’s a fucking hot tip: get your nut off here.

This restaurant isn't particularly outstanding, but I used to frequent it often when I was in summer school a few years ago. I still visit when I'm in the Northgate area. The place is owned by a friendly elderly Asian man. I enjoy the ice cream and find that everything is reasonably priced.
