Friendly, neighbourhood spot. One of the originals since liquor licenses were allowed in this area.

While I may not call the Junction home, I’ve discovered that Axis Café is the neighborhood’s best-kept secret. This modest spot is the heart of the area, where locals gather to catch up, swap stories, and soak in the charm of their vibrant community. Whether you're meeting friends, catching up on local gossip, or just enjoying the atmosphere, this is the place to be.
Of course, if you prefer solitude, snag a table for one, savor a drink, dive into a good book, and watch the Junction come to life around you.
I haven’t yet experienced Axis’s nightlife, but word on the street is that it’s the perfect place to kick off—or wind down—your evening. Their beer selection is solid, ranging from craft brews to the classics, and any bar that serves Pabst Blue Ribbon gets a nod of approval from me.
The food? Delicious and thoughtfully prepared, with something on the menu for everyone. So, if you find yourself in the Junction, or are curious to explore, make Axis Café your first stop. You won’t be disappointed.

The lemon garlic aioli in this place is absolutely heavenly. I keep eating fried stuff just to get that dip.

One of the best club sandwiches I’ve ever had. Cozy patio, too.

My favorite spot in Toronto. The food is delicious, the service is quick and polite. It's nice to sit at the patio or go downstairs for a pool table game. The jukebox plays good tunes but can always change the song. It's spacious that your around people but still able to have a private conversation. I recommend the burger it hits the spot. They also make a very good veggie wrap. I have been mixing it up with the daily specials.

Shout outs to chef Siva. Seafood pasta is my go to. I go for the spicy option. Secret Siva sauce for wings is also ?

First time coming, we had a very nice server, the food was really good, although the fries were overpriced. Even though it’s more of a bar it even has a kid’s menu. One of my only complaints, which isn’t that important, is that when you sit at the end of the left part of the outside area, there is a fence separating the other side which people smoke behind there and you can smell it really strong through the fence. My food recommendation is the nachos, they were amazing!

Very few ppl were there and it was still too loud. They need to do work on sound baffles in the ceiling.

Went here for brunch today. The service was welcoming and friendly, prices reasonable and big portions.Due to the fact that it’s a big place, it wasn’t an overcrowded line up for brunch spot. We will be back!

The place has been in that location for a long time so clearly they're doing something right. The service is attentive and friendly. The bar is spacious with a large upstairs and a considerable downstairs as well. I've been a couple of times and both times the bar was far from full, I think it's large size only adds to this empty feeling. They have a somewhat limited but classic beer menu with a couple interesting local beers on tap. Overall if you're in the area and looking for a pint I would recommend stopping in but I wouldn't expect my mind to be blown.
