Sweet Marie is everything a convenience store should be and more. It's fabulously located right across from the Dominion Pub and situated at a streetcar stop, making for an easy getaway. They are equipped with your usual milk shop offerings, an ATM, some household goods, and an array of delicious and healthy snacks too. If they don't have what you're looking for at Sweet Marie, then what you're looking for isn't worth looking for, ya dig?
My favorite part has to be their over-the-top and exemplary customer service. The ladies who work the counter are not just gracious and helpful -- they are perpetually wearing an ear-to-ear grin. I've stayed at five-star hotels that barely hold a candle to the exacting level of customer service and hospitality at Sweet Marie. Seriously, when you walk out the door you'll think you'd just had a religious experience. Try their beef patties too.
I don't throw out superlatives like "the best" very often, but I must say: this place is simply the best.
Obligatory Title Pun: How SWEET it is.
Menu Readability: How a convenience store has graphic design this compelling and visually rich is beyond me.
Need to mention: Just kidding, this place sucks. I'd rather watch my first born get torn apart by a Vitamix than set foot in this hellhole.
What this place teaches me about myself: There are a few gems in Corktown. This isn't one of them.
