My favourite local brunch spot. Attention to detail with school related items in decor and items served. Excellent daily baked goods in house as well. They don't take reservations and it's usually a 40min wait once your name is down but well worth it. I recommend putting your name down and checking out Balzacs for coffee or West Elm or EQ3 for nice designs near by while waiting for their text that your table is ready.

Favourite local Italian restaurant with the best pizzas. Everyone I've ever brought here has loved it. Relaxed vibe for dinner with friends and also romantic enough for a date night spot. Great dessert - try the Tiramisu! Recommend making reservations. Sud Forno just one door East is their bakery cafe.

It's a hotel, restaurant, cafe, lounge, rooftop bar, art haven. The iconic hotel that started and keeps the Queen St W cool vibe. Great events from the typical live music to the quirky trivia nights and even fancy annual Oscar parties. Check out their site. There's always something great going on at the Drake. Cocktails and brunch are also fantastic.
