Yummy Market was founded by a European family in 2002 to fill a need for the growing number of Europeans living in the area, as well as the adventurous types seeking new food experiences.

The founders immigrated to Canada from Moscow with a clear mission to bring a european food experience to as many people as possible in their new Canadian home.

Yummy Market offers a broad selection of European foods including hot, prepared meals as well as fresh-baked breads, buns, cakes and pastries.

The chefs at Yummy Market are trained in traditional European kitchens, ensuring the flavours you bring home from Yummy will take your taste buds back on a Continental tour of old favourites and new.

Yummy Market now offers two convenient locations, 1390 Major Mackenzie Dr. W., in Maple and 4400 Dufferin St. in North York.

Store staff speaks a variety of languages including English, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Farsi, Hebrew, Italian and other languages.
