Graffti's - Kensington market is not trendy, it is where the trends come from -- and Graffiti's, in the heart of the market, seems to have a unique definition of a good time. Everything from the dancing Elvis at the bar to the mural depicting rock music legends suggests Graffiti's is a rock bar, but it has a few secrets. Some evenings live poetry and open stage nights, where anything goes, take over from the live bands that usually grace the stage. The atmosphere is casual and the regulars, some of whom seem more of a fixture at the bar than the taps, are very loyal.
The Dizzy - Located in Roncesvalles Village, The Dizzy serves high-end pub food in a sports bar setting. Their menu is inspired by classic French bistro offerings: steak frites, rustic chicken, seafood ravioli and cordon blue jay (chicken cordon bleu) served alongside burgers, wings and ribs. Sports fans can enjoy a televised game with a whiskey or draught beer.
Hoops - Located around the corner from Toronto's former hockey shrine, this place is called, naturally enough, Hoops. With TV's in the booths, a whole whack of satellite dishes, and a great vibe, Hoops has survived the closing of the Gardens to become a beloved local sports bar. Karaoke nights are popular, and so are the ribs.
Opera Bob's Public House - Cold delicious beers on tap and a wide variety in the cooler. The New Bar on Dundas just east of Ossington, beside The Lakeview Lunch, is getting known quickly as a hot spot for wholesome food and great live entertainment. The menu has a wide variety of crock pot dishes, pot pies, the best bacon cheese dip you'll ever have, and many other items suitable for meals, snacks or sharing. Every Saturday, there will be live entertainment by The Unknown Culprits, Adrian Parks and many others. Opera Bob's is great for any occasion whether your ready to party or just take a load off, have a beer, and get something to eat.
Jay's Season has never been so good. Come out and you be the judge!!
