“Exceptional service and truly professional! I had a wonderful experience at this passport photo shop in downtown Toronto. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the warm welcome, professionalism, and genuine care. What really stood out to me was the attention to detail. They didn’t simply take a photo—they made sure everything was done carefully and correctly, with the customer’s needs in mind. The process was quick and efficient, but never rushed. The quality of the photos was excellent, and the service was friendly, patient, and personal. It is clear that they take great pride in their work and sincerely care about serving people well. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who needs passport, visa, or ID photos in downtown Toronto. You can expect excellent quality, reasonable service, and, most importantly, people who genuinely care about their customers. A truly five-star experience! Highly recommended!”

“Tiny’s is so much more than a place to grab a great coffee, a snack, or a unique gift. Chrys has created something truly special - a genuine sense of community. Her genuine warmth and generosity draw everyone in. At a time when we’re all craving more human connection, Tiny’s is a perfect reminder of what community can feel like. We feel very lucky to have it in our neighbourhood.”

I, of course, purchased several items and got a bag! #okseeyou!”

“I love this convenience store! The staff are always incredibly friendly and helpful. The shop is small, but incredibly well-stocked, and they always seem to have exactly what I need. I usually expect convenience stores to be overpriced, but somehow the prices here are as low (and sometimes lower) than the grocery store. I'm not sure how they do it, but I am very grateful to live near such a neighborhood gem.”

Chili Miso, organic Caesar dressing, GF Alfredo, Fever Tree tonics, stuff like that! They also have beer and wine, and some staples as well. Worth poking your head into to look for specific things, but wouldn't use it as a daily convenience store (expensive)”

“I live in the neighbourhood all my life. I have seen many owners come and go over the years. They serve the neighbourhood very well from the local school kids and neighbours. The staff especially the current owner, Michelle and her very dedicated yet hardworking rentless employee Anthony. They greet you everytime by calling you by your name. They also remembered what you had purchased at the store. They share their wealth of information and always wishes you good luck when you purchase lottery tickets. Anthony in the other hand is the neighbourhood food connsieur so he has tried a lot different food and would promote what he has eaten or his favourite. Anthony always tries to find a cigarette package that describes his feedback on certain individuals. Overall the atmosphere ..it is clean and great staff and service. There are times there are few customers and other times NONE! If you do drop just to shop buy a lottery ticket and if you meet Anthony. It takes one meeting of him makes you want to return for a conversation.”
99 Harbord Street, Toronto ON M5S 1G7
“Warning: lottery tickets are cash only. In the spring this place cannot be beat for annual and perennial selection in the immediate area, and they are well stocked after most other corner stores abandon plants. The herb and vegetable selection isn't quite as robust, but they have the basics. Inside they have a variety of house plants. For everyday grocery needs it's fine.”
535 Bloor Street West, Toronto ON M5S 1Y5

I would give this store a 67/41 if i could but you can only rate out of 5.

The workers here are the best, especially Ryan, and I love that this store has a community of people that enjoy coming by to hang out. Never mind the countless options of snacks that are offered here!”
1890 Dufferin Street, Toronto ON M6E 3P7
“The people who operate the store are very nice. The guy loaned me his umbrella one time during a storm. The items are perhaps pricey compared to a grocery store but totally in line or somewhat better than other convenience stores. The place is very well stocked. There's lots of basic homewares and hardware. I got these small, collapsible sieves from there. They are so handy and easy to store. I also bought these back scratchers that I use for me but also for my cat! They are the same as the Kikkerland ones but half the price. I'm not sure they have any more because I may have bought them all. Anyway, I really like this place. They used to get this really good tofu but they said the vendor wouldn't sell the smaller quantity anymore. It was really good though and I haven't seen any like it elsewhere.”
