Most (but not all) of the ice cream at this popular chain is kosher under the COR and this is indicated on the small flavour labels on the freezer. Any toppings or cones need to be checked independently.

Similar to Baskin Robbins, many of the frozen yogurts are certified kosher. The flavours tend to rotate, so each would need to be verified, as would any sauces and toppings.

‍

There are LCBO's all over the city, but the locations with the widest kosher selection are:

• Rideau and King Edward (downtown)- check the ‘Vintages’ section on the lower level for some higher end choices
• College Square (west end)
• Bank and Walkley (close to Alta Vista).
