What User likes about Mclean's Specialty Foods:
Super friendly service and a unique variety of foods from around the world. I wish we had a place like this in Toronto!From the moment you enter the store, you can tell by the screen door that this is a special place. There is an old world field and a huge assortment of foods, meats, cheeses, etc. We were on the quest for Nanaimo Bars and we were not disappointed by the original bar. Delicious! View all feedback.
