Hamilton has so many wonderful restaurants and food places to visit. Some of the best are right in our neighbourhood on Locke Street. Let me know if you need a recommendation!
Some of the best food and an amazing beer selection, literally at the end of our street (Hunter & Locke). Not to be missed!

This is the grocery store that we helped start in 2014! All the food, coffee, etc in the suite is from there. If you are looking for groceries, be sure to check it out. The Mustard Seed’s focus is local, wholesome food but you can get pretty much everything. Check it out!
