2 Best Shopping in Side Trips from Toronto, Ontario

Stratford Festival Shop

In two locations (at the Avon and Festival theaters), this is the place for Shakespeare finger puppets, every Shakespeare play ever written, original costume sketches, soundtracks to musicals, quotable aprons, and Bard-themed children's books.

Watson's Chelsea Bazaar

At this brimming curio shop you might find a cat curled up among the reasonably priced china, glassware, French soaps, kitchen gadgets, and other bric-a-brac. The Bradshaw family has owned a store at this location in various forms (it used to be a high-end china hall) since the 1800s.
