50 Best Pubs in Toronto

“The food was phenomenal and the staff were very accomodating. Took my partner here for dinner, we shared the most delicious pork belly and equally delicious roasted brusselsprouts. The oysters were fresh and came with a great choice lf toppings. The trout was so good, the dill cream sauce paired very nicely with the fish. Will be coming back again and highly recommend!“

“One of the best steaks I have ever tried! Oh, and one of few places in Toronto that play great music. Service is quick and personable. Great place!“

“Great place for late night drinks or brunch! I love the new buck a shuck deal upstairs in their oyster house, and they have such delicious food offerings up there as well. Will be back!“

“Try the chicken pot pie, the crust is reminiscent of a flaky beef patty - yummy, yummy, Chef Darium. The fried crispy chicken sandwich is another winner, pair it with a salad for a full meal.

Get the keylime pie, it's delicious! Shout out to chef Marco.“

“Filled with pre-show guests, the Duke of York was lively, loud, and welcoming. The food was pub-style delicious, especially the very very good daily soup! Our server was friendly and attentive. Because we were there before a concert at Koerner Hall, it took a while for us to get both our drinks and our food. We expected this and gave ourselves plenty of time to eat and get to the concert. Wasn't my first time here and won't be my last!“

Definitely going back and bringing friends. Great place for anyone visiting. Ask for Mohamed super cool guy, he made great suggestions for beer and food.“

“The food is delicious, and it is a restaurant worth bringing family and friends to try.“

“Sin & Redemption is a fantastic little pub that's worth seeking out. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with some really interesting photos adorning the walls. But what really sets this place apart is their impressive selection of European beers. Whether you're a seasoned beer connoisseur or just looking to try something new, you're sure to find something to your taste.
If you're a fan of good beer and a bit of history, I highly recommend checking out Sin & Redemption.“

“Love this place! A community hangout! Great live local music!“

“3 Brasseurs is a fantastic spot for beer and steak lovers. Their house-brewed beers are top-notch, offering a great variety to suit any taste. The steak was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and expertly seasoned. A must-visit for a relaxed yet satisfying dining experience!“

“2024 October 4★
Donut review only. ~$4
Wild blubbery filled donut with icing sugar on top. Soft and gently sweet with the slightly bitter sweet of the blueberries. Pretty good.
Would come again for other treats.“

“I love to hang out at Pogue Mahone with my friend Raj for brunch“

“Decent overall. Server wasn’t very friendly. Bathroom was super cramped, you literally open the door to someone peeing and half exposed to the hallway and without room to walk by to the sink to wash or to use a stall. Beer was good though and the patio was awesome!“

“Such a great place !!! A couple friends and I came here for the first time on New Years Day to catch, we hadn’t been before. We immediately noticed the great atmosphere and kind service at this spot. Food was good, the dart board was fun, but our server/bartender Jimmy was fan-tastic. Great guy, friendly, and attentive. Thoroughly enjoyed our time hanging out here and we’ll certainly return if we’re in the area again 🙏

Vegetarian options: Some vegetarian options - nachos, pizza, house made veg burger, appies“

“Great place. Wonderful staff, amazing owner.“

“I know they open very early for the amazing breakfast menu, but my only disappointment is that the kitchen closes too soon at night. Maybe they should announce last call for food like they do for alcohol as 1030pm seems very early when people need to absorb the drinks while enjoying the amazing LIVE local talent on Saturday nights. 10/10 for Mark, Reno & the Chefs :)“

“Large capacity venue. Great prime rib. Friendly staff.“

“Visiting Toronto and we found this hip place. Servers were nice, food was good, drinks were amazing! Sake Bomb!!! 👍🏼👍🏼“

“Always a favourite spot of mine! Love love coming here with out of city friends, the food quality and service is always top notch and the seasonal menu is always worth taking a look at! Recommend coming on a weekday - weekends are pretty busy and can get a little too loud for me but weekdays make a perfect night out. Highly recommend!“

“I love love love this spot, for some good drinks and a chat whether I'm on my own or with friends. One of my favourite things about this spot is that they have a variety of foods of different nationalities which is rare to see! I've been loving the new management as well and the changes they've made from the renovations to the changes in the menu. As a vegetarian and now vegan I appreciate having multiple options to choose from and my favourite at Wylie's is Green Mango Salad, Mango Tofu and their vegetarian pasta, olive oil based (to die for, i kid you not)!!! My friends' favourites include the Nachos Supreme, Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich and Butter Chicken both of which they rave about constantly!! :)“

“They don't serve food, just alcohol. They're ok with bringing food, mostly geared to UofT staff and students but they will serve anyone. I drank GSU (the pub's) lager for $5.45 CAD/pint (16oz) it's pretty good and so great in value. Check out the images.“

“great paper plane cocktail 🙂🙂“

“I absolutely love their Shrimp Fettucini Alfredo! (half price on Tuesdays😀)“
