There are quite a few Indians around Kitchener/Waterloo area and Guelph is considered part of that metro area.

I do not see any store particularly in Guelph in our yellow pages. If you do see any, as the owners to add their business in our listings

However this is the list of stores in the metro area:

Same way this is the list of Temples in that area:

There are two Desi grocery stores in Guelph. They keep almost everything you would need. One is on Woodlawn and other on Speedvale. I have also observed that they are little bit cheaper than Kitchener ones.

Can you give me some approximate address of the one Woodlawn and other on Speedvale

Also what can one do in the evenings in Guelph. What to do for TP in the city

Guelph is predominantly an university town , so when classes are in session you tend to have a lot of activities oriented towards the students. They can be a lot of fun if you are young enough at heart. The shopping scene is dismal. If you want to buy something expensive better make the trip to Toronto. Guelph is close to Elora and Fergus both very picturesque. I don't know of any temple or gurudwara in Guelph , but then I was there a few years ago and things may have changed. For groceries : Why don't you drive down to Mississauga? It is just 40 minutes.

One problem with Guelph. Doctors are rare. Specialists are even rarer. They only come to visit from TO a couple of days a week.
