Cooke's Fine Foods on Brock St. near the intersection of King St. is an "old world" style shop that specialize in fine English and European sweets, sauces, preserves, and cheeses. The store also roast their own coffee on a daily basis, and sells it at around $9 a pound. Premium quality gift baskets are also sold.
The Farmer's Market on Market Square happens every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday throughout the year. Summer is the peak time for the market, although there are a few devoted folks who will be out through the winter. In the summer, you can buy fresh local produce as well as baked and preserved goods, local art and clothing. Buy your maple syrup here, since it will be much cheaper than at the tourist traps, and you'll get to talk to the person who tapped it.
The Antique Market (same location as Farmer's Market) happens on Sundays during the summer.
