There are so many unique shops in Waterdown that have become a great reason for people to shop in Waterdown... Leylands is one of them. With the "wedding of the century" coming up next Friday April 29th, I thought this would be a great time to introduce you to Leylands in case you've never made the trip into town to check out this little jem of a store. Leylands is offering "Tax Free Day" on the day of the Royal Wedding and also offering free Empire Cookies. They also have a good supply of Royal Wedding memorabilia including mugs, plates, cup & saucers and teapots!
from their website.... "Leylands was established in 2002 and is named after the British Leylands Company in England. Bought out in 2005, Leylands has gone from strength to strength, offering exceptional variety of items with new stock arriving every second week. Our customers continue to ask us to bring in items they miss from Britain: if it's possible, we do. We now stock over 500 items making us, if not the best, then one of the best stocked British stores in Ontario. Run by Karen Thorpe and Sheryl Wellings, two sisters born in Birmingham and raised in the West Midlands, Leylands has that great "corner shop" feeling where customers feel able to pause and chat. Excellent customer incentive programs and products such as fresh pies, custard tarts and a variety of other baked products make Leylands a staple in our customers lives. Running through the summer we offer flake "99" ice creams - just like the ones you used to get from the ice cream vans back home"
Leylands is located at 318 Dundas Street East (just west of the historic 4 corners at Dundas & Mill Street on the south side (beside the American). Phone 905-690-9539. leylands@bellnet.ca
I'm heading over there soon to pick up my Royal Wedding stuff before they run out!
