Drinks & Nightlife

Just at the corner of Pauline & Bloor – yummy ciders and beer, plus a menu that changes every week. They have an in-house brewery and even sell bottles to go. Also, great live music!

We're biased because we worked at this dancehall restaurant for years. But this is the best live world music venue in the city. Go for dinner and a show on a Fri/Sat & take the salsa lesson. Also check out their Sunday brunch and live music and salsa lesson. Super fun for families!

This was the first "hip bar" to appear in Bloordale and has become a staple. They have a big patio with a wood burning fireplace. A popular place to start an evening. Their kitchen is good too.

Arts & Culture

The ROM is a wonderful place to spend the day with your kids. They can dig for dinosaur bones or head to the bat cave. We usually get an annual pass and then come and go as we like.
