Nestled among the clothing stores and other retail madness at these outlet stores is this gem. The staff very amazingly friendly and very knowledgeable. They were very generous with the samples and let my wife and I take our time deciding which of the hot sauces, BBQ sauces and spice rubs we liked best. We ended up purchasing a Peach Habanero hot sauce, a Mocha BBQ sauce and a spice rub which the employee, when asked, said stands up well when used in the smoker. I had to limit myself otherwise I would have spent way too much in this store! Great store and experience!
If you love to sample the heat, then this place is for you. Love the variety and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Peppers and more await. Enjoy the samples and go all in for "The End"
Tried going to pepper palace only to find it is gone.
I visited here for the 1st time today. The manager was one of the nicest people I've ever met! She was very knowledgeable and personable and above all she gave amazing customer service. Definitely a notch above. I highly recommend checking out this location! I will be back for sure!!
I first found the Pepper Palace in Tn about 16 years ago. A few weeks ago I found it here. My friend and I went in and was instantly greeted. We were dealing with the manager and she was so friendly and knew her sauces. Reminded me of staff and people I met from Gatlinburg Tn. We spent quite a while there and not once did we feel like the staff were annoyed. How could we not buy 6 bottles?!?! Thank-you to the manager and staff!
Great hot sauce and staff
TLDR: Best selection of hot sauces from mild to maniac, great staff, lots of tastings for free. Do you want Hot sauce? Go here. It's that simple, the Pepper Palace has a Hot Sauce for everyone from very mild to hot sauce that required my friend and I to require assistance making it to the nearest ice cream parlour and needing to spend an hour recovering. That was The End hot sauce by the way, 10/10 would recommend. (I'm never going anywhere near that hot sauce again, it's their hottest and required a waiver to test)
Dropped in while passing by and was pleasantly surprised at the hot sauce selection and samples available. Tried a sauce made with the hottest pepper on record, the Carolina Reaper. All I can say is that it was HOT.
Pricey af! But great selections
A drop of their flashbomb is intense!! You get a sticker and 10% off at the Rocky Mountain chocolate
A wide variety of HOT sauces, friendly and welcoming staff, A*customer service from Stephanie, loads of samples to try before you buy
Not for me but for prople that like dpicry stuff. Some hot hot stuff here.
Omg steph is amazing and so is everything in here!
Huge selection of spices, rubs, and sauces. The atmosphere makes it seem so depressing though like they either are about to go out of business or are just launching. It doesn't inspire confidence.
Good hot sauce, ask staff for recommendations.
Best place for anything spicy
Massive variety, something for everyone, seasoning, BBQ sauces, hot sauces. Give this place a try, you won't regret it.
Spicy
Love this place. Great gift ideas, tons of selection.
So much yumminess
This was a favorite stop of ours. Lots of hot sauce and horsradish
I discovered some of my favourite hot sauces here. Being able to taste all the recommendations is a definite plus so you know what you're bringing home. I made some great purchases even though the bottle I was specifically looking for was out of stock, I got a great alternative. Staff really knew their hot sauces.
This place is a haven for a hot sauce lover like myself, with some of the greatest quality hot sauces out there. The only thing is I wish they carried sauces from other producers instead of only carrying their own. Still, I never leave here without at least six bottles in my bag.
Wow
Hell yeah, hot sauces.
Meet
Bring a store to Quebec!!!!!
Amazing customer service. The Manager at this location, Steph, is amazing. She knows her stuff and can find you the hot sauce that matches your exact tastes.
The end. Enough said...
Lots to choose from mild to wild, knowledgeable staff to help you find right sauce for you
Amazing selection of sauces and rubs. If you need hot sauce,this is your one stop shop.
This store has some of the most flavorful hot sauces I have ever had the pleasure of tasting and buying. From the different spice levels being visual for all to see, to the tasting station where you can try a couple sauces you are interested in, the store makes it easy to find what you are looking for. Take a look when you have the time. You won't be disappointed.
Great array of hot sauces and other condiments!
(Translated) Good service with recommendations. (Original) Bon service avec recommandations.
Great customer service, really nice warm welcome. Willing to offer samples of products. Products are abit pricey
Very knowledgeable staff. We stock up on our hot sauces whenever we go by.
The staff here at pepper palace are EXCEPTIONAL! Wide variety of hot sauces, very clean store, and when COVID wasn't there, i was open to trying sauces. Hot sauce can range from ghost peppers to bbq sauces and more. The front of the store contains hot sauces and then goes to the back for like the average person. I like how they have sauces for everyone and not just enthusiasts. I bought the Tres Diablos sauce and it was very great and hot just like i liked it!
Awesome
An American Tourist Opinion: My wife and I have always dreamed of going into a Hot Sauce shop and getting a chance to try out all the sauces we have never seen or bumped into one. Today was the day we bumped into the place and it was an amazing experience! The staff member that day is an excellent example of an amazing service (His name was Thomas, if managers want to give him a raise.) He never stopped once, always moving and working hard. The sauces are extremely delicious and great and amazing flavors, we ended up buying "Garlic Parm" which is super delicious and tasty, we would enjoy maybe some kind of complimentary drink to wash down the taste testing after. But either way, you know what you would expect coming here. Voodoo sauce was crazy hot, but I don't think it is something I can have everyday. As for the shop itself, it is extraordinary clean and lovely atmosphere.Very welcoming for us compared to American shops and service. We will definitely stop by again someday!
Best meat rub. Plus great selection of sauces for just about anything.
I love hot sauces & this is the amazing place where I get plenty of hot sauces.
As someone just starting to step up there hot sauce game I was very impressed with eh selection and the service I received. I walked away with 2 incredible sauces. One was a medium heat and one was a hot. Highly recommend checking this place out.
Super friendly and helpful, almost all their stuff has samples which helps out on what you want to get !
Look, it's fun to go in an checkout the hundred different ways they add spice to condiments. At the end of the day, this is a store that sells their own product, you won't find any of the big names or classics of hot sauces, you just get 12 different interpretations of a pepper palace X-heat level sauce. Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily. I haven't tried all the sauces I picked up, but I'm looking forward to some of the combinations. That said, I would have been much more impressed of they had offered some other brands besides their own.
All of their private labels are here plus lots of samplings. Bottles are way overpriced but not if you are looking for the special flavour or unique gift for the hot and spicy lover on your list. Service was positive, passionate and informative on my visit.
Me and my brother love trying out spicy foods and hot sauces especially my brother he loves like anything above a habanero we went there and had a delicious taste test the mustard hot sauce that the gentleman recommended was absolutely amazing
Love the selections
They've moved to another store location at the outlet. Service are super friendly and helpful.
Best hot sauces around.
Awful, the selection is minimal and nothing from when I first experienced this store. Every item I went there for was sold out and walls were completely bare and unfilled. Unless something changes I will not be making an hour drive here to return.
I went here a couple weeks ago with my friends. We came to get some hot sauces to re-create an episode of the "Hot Ones" as seen on YouTube. We quickly became acquainted with Chris B. and Stephanie, who went above and beyond to educate and assist us on the world of hot sauces. I can honestly say I've rarely recieved this level of customer service from any boutique store, and genuinely enjoyed my time here. I would definitely reccomend! 10/10
Not only is the sauce incredible but the staff as well. The staff recommended a sauce based on other sauces I liked and they were spot on. The amount of knowledge they have about their products is a refreshing change. I will never shop anywhere else for hot sauce or rubs. Worth the trip everytime!
Fantastic place. Their sample set up is fun to try. Well managed and the workers were very friendly and helpful! My brother and I can't wait to have our new sauces!
I went here a few weeks ago and the customer service was amazing. They had allowed us to sample all the sauces we wanted to buy as well as allowed us to do the spicy taste testing. After purchase, our bottle had broken while we were shopping and the owner was gracious enough to replace the bottle free of charge even though it was my mistake.
Always leave with a large selection of hot sauces! They have a great selection and you can taste test before you buy. Mild, med and hot choices. Staff are amazing too
If you're looking for a gift for someone for their birthday and they like hot sauce this is a great place to go. You can even try samples. If you already know what you want you can also buy it on their website.
Outstanding staff that genuinely enjoy the product and it shows. This place is my new favorite.
Nicest people ever! 2nd pepper palace I've been to and all the employees are so nice! Thank you! Delicious black bean and corn salsa :D
So many options. This one is our fave.
Great store
Great store and staff
Staff super knowledgable about specials and sauces.
Great customer service and good selection. Awesome advice given if you have allergies!
What a place for anyone who loves flavour. We dropped in and tried a number of the hot sauces. Loved the variety and the staff is very helpful. It isn't cheap but it is a specialty store and worth a visit.
The have all kinds of Hot sauces as long as you can handle it.
Really helpful staff to work with you and help guide you through everything. Samples were well organized and easy to self-guide through. I had no idea there were so many options. I'll be back.
Great place for hot sauces. Staff and knowledgeable about the products and being able to taste prior to buying is essential. Glad they offer that service as it can get expensive buying sauces without trying first.
Great service. Stephanie was very informative, and very helpful. She went above and beyond to help me find the perfect sauce. She was friendly and funny, and she made shopping during covid a delight. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Can't wait to come back to Canada , for pepper sauce, Death by Wings ! the best! Veronia in Cape Town South Africa.
Hot hot hot. Awesome place
These guys are amazing as always! The are extremely passionate about hot sauce and the pepper community. As a hot food lover, this is the only place that I go to get my hot sauce. You can sample almost everything in the store and the employees will help match you with a sauce you can handle. If you are daring enough I recommend "The End" but only for those you accept the challenge.
Lots of selection of sauces. Very helpful staff. I am so glad they are back.
Huge selection of sauces , employees are awesome !
Was in the falls area and actually stumbled upon this store. My taste buds started to pull me in. Hot sauces and hot sauces wall to wall. I saw the Carolina Reaper bottle and asked if I could taste it. One has to sign a waiver to taste it! A big gimmick, I personally think. People who like hot spicy flavours know what to expect from a Ghost Peppers and Carolina Reaper. If one does not know, then don’t even think about trying it! To me it was all heat and no flavour. However I did pick two bottles - Ghost Pepper Salsa and a Southern Redneck sauce. Both of them are amazing and extremely hot and a full of flavour. Must buy if you are there and like something hot. The staff on duty was amazing and helpful. Every question we asked he knew what the products were and his recommendations.
They staff there are very consciences of their customer safety and they take the time to know each one of them. Super knowledgable in their products. Will be back soon forsure!
Thomas the sales associate was very helpful, knowledgeable about the product and provide samples of various products without rushing our decision about what to purchase. There should be more sales people like him.
GREAT selection of ribs and sauces. Staff was very friendly
Great selection, incredibly overpriced
Excellent selection.
Great customer service! Girl working was super friendly and taking care of about 10 people shopping in the store (and doing an excellent job), giving out samples and offering suggestions ... Will definately go back once purchases run out :)
Excellent selection
A bit expensive
Great selection of Hot Sauces! Love stopping in and trying a new bottle.
I have been here a few times and always leave with something. This time I tried the new "the end" hot sauce. It was very hot but I think the old flashbang was hotter. They sell a variety of spices and rubs (not all hot). I suggest everyone stops by, there is something for everyone
Hell yeah! Hot sauce baby!
Cool store. Lots of options. Nice that they have so many samples you can try. Staff was really friendly too. If you like hot sauces then easy to recommend checking this place out.
Website sux
I love this place. They have the best sauces!
Amazing selection of sauces and rubs. Prices can be a bit high but you can't find alot of these anywhere else around ! Service was excellent and amazing knowledge.
Great products / very knowledged staff
Great flavours for Barbecue, friendly staff
(Translated) The ideal place for spicy lovers. Your dependent Thomas will advise you on all the sauces and on how to combine them with any meal. You can also try them ALL and choose the one you like the most. They have a website with sale to everyone. (Original) El sitio ideal para los amantes del picante. Su dependiente Thomas te aconsejará sobre todas las salsas y sobre cómo combinarlas con cualquier comida. Además puedes probarlas TODAS y elegir la que más te guste. Disponen de sitio web con venta a todo el mundo.
Amazing selection of pepper sauce from cool with great flavors to melt your fillings sauce with great flavors. The service lady was super knowledgeable took her time explaining all the different sauces.
Hot hot hot and nicely so! Great staff!
Staff are really friendly, informative and helpful. The selection can leave a hot sauce connoisseur here for hours. Chocolate Chipotle sauce is highly recommended.
Very knowledgeable. I went in looking for a hot sauce for my husband . They did not carry the one I was looking for but named the ingredients and recommended one very similar. The young lady who worked there was very friendly and welcoming.
Love visiting this store. I like to try the samples.
Tons of hot sauce and related items. Very helpful staff. They usually have several available for tasting.
An excellent spot for hot sauces ... and I do mean HOT. Every level of heat can be found at the Pepper Palace, whether you're looking for everyday grocery store level heat all the way up to 7,000,000 Scovilles (The End - Flatline). Don't be scared.
IT'S GONE -- NOT HERE -- EMPTY -- LOOK LIKE IT LEFT MID DEC/16
This Pepper Palace is quite welcoming. An employee even came up to us and asked if we would like information or suggestions. He was very kind; so was the lady cashier! My friend and I enjoyed our time there. The selection is amazing! Only one thing I kind of find off. The prices are a bit high. Then again, the hot sauces are high quality! I highly recommend!
Awesome store, I can't wait to go back. It would take me all day to look through everything they have!
Huge selection. They have mini bar and you can try some hot sauces. Prices above average. Most of them from 12 to 17 bucks. But sauces really good.
Hottest sauces in town
Amazing Customer Service! Visited this shop yesterday late afternoon and so glad we did!! We ended up buying 3 bottles and got to taste test them all - The Sales Rep was incredible and will definitely be going back! If your into REALLY HOT stuff Try the Hot Popcorn ???? you may cry!! Thank you again for a great hot sauce experience!
I had an awesome experience at Pepper palace. I really like very hot sauces combined with flavor and spice and these two beauties did not disappoint. Both of them are extremely hot but very flavourful at the same time
Great place to find an extensive selection of hot sauces, rubs, bbq sauces, and weird gift ideas! Service staff are great, passionate and knowledgeable of their products! They are opening a store in Toronto!
Owner was very helpful, shared history of the area and interesting places to visit as we're out of towners.
I liked the variety oh spices they have
Awesome store! Lots to sample and burn yourself with! Delicious sauces available.
Even during stressful COVID-19, both Stephanie and Thomas gave exceptional service. I was at this location on the 5th of September both Thomas and Stephanie were courteous and had great knowledge of their products. Stephanie really was exceptional, and helping me find what I was looking for. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone especially is Stephanie is the one helping customers!!! I wish I could give 10 stars!!
Went in here today and the woman there was pretty pushy and wouldn't let us browse. Also if you want the best selection of hot sauces, go find a Chili Chillies (they have a much better selection of hot sauces compared to Pepper Palace).
