Business Spotlight
Royal City Nursery
Today’s spotlight goes to Royal City Nursery — one of Guelph’s best spring stops right now. With longer seasonal hours, plenty of spring inspiration, and Earth Day weekend events coming up, it’s a timely local business to have on your radar. You can check them out here on their website.
Spot of the Week
There is a new Mexican place in town, and yes it is authentic! Papalotl Guelph is the newest restaurant in town, located technically in Puslinch but just a stones throw from South Guelph. The food is incredibly and very authentic. It’s a place that is all about the quality of food. Their Birria Tacos were super good! Check them out here on Google!
