50 Best Pubs in Toronto

“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!“

“This is my go-to spot with my family. The food, service, and vibe is amazing and they're family friendly. I love that every time I go, they find a spot that's stroller-friendly for my little one. So happy you guys are in our neighbourhood!“

“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!“

“I really like the spot, the location is perfect. They have a fantastic patio, great place to grab a drink and people watch. The main menu items can a be a bit pricy but that is to be expected from a downtown spot. They do have a nice happy hour menu with good food and drink options.“

“We rented out the main floor for a wedding celebration with ~100 people and a 6-piece band. It was the night of our dreams! Evan was super easy and accommodating to work with, the price was super reasonable, we were able to put up some decorations and bring in pizzas from across the street at Bitondo's. The 3 bartenders and sound tech were very professional and a pleasure to work with. We'll be back regularly to celebrate at this special place!!!“

“Walked in on a whim. Super friendly service and an outstanding fried chicken sandwich and salad. Nice craft beer list. Will absolutely be back.“

“Amazing selection of whiskey, wonderful friendly staff, good food (with plenty of veg friendly options!).“

“Food’s good. First time trying the shrimp menboshu dusted with cheesling powder - I like it. The chicken and fries are good and is what I expected. The server, Zelda, is on top of things and very nice. The music they play here are bangers.“

“We went on a Saturday night (August 10th, 2024). The servers were super quick and polite. They were able to immediately get to our drinks, which I ordered a beer that was house brewed there. While getting our drinks, we were also able to order our appetizer (pulled pork poutine). Not that much time passed, and they were able to get our poutine while still waiting for drinks. The poutine was to die for. Our drinks came back, and it was one of the best beers I've personally had. We were also able to place our main order, which I got the lamb burger. That also didn't take much time and was really good. They also had a pool table and board games after you eat. I would come back again, and definitely recommend it if you're in Toronto :)“

“Amazing owners and amazing food ... would definitely recommend and you have to try their fish and chips .... the best !!!“

“Great service and don’t worry about being the smartest/dumbest guy in the pub!“

“3 Brasseurs in Toronto is a fantastic spot, especially when you're on the hunt for a late-night beer. We found ourselves there around 1:00 a.m., craving a drink, and this place did not disappoint. The beer was fresh and delicious, brewed to perfection, and exactly what we needed.

Although we didn't get to try the food since the kitchen was closed, the overall experience was still great. The hospitality was top-notch, and the ambiance of the place is simply awesome. Located right in front of the Eaton Centre and at the heart of the square, the vintage architecture adds a unique charm to the whole experience.

I can't wait to return and experience it again, hopefully when the kitchen is open, so I can taste the food as well. Definitely a spot worth visiting!“

“We visited for the first time this evening and absolutely loved the food and service! Such a great addition to the neighbourhood and we will absolutely be regulars! Highly recommended! The beef cheek was amazing!“

“Spacious! Good food! Nice place for a team event!“

“Lots and lots to choose from. Food was awesome“

“I enjoyed dinner and drinks on the heated back patio of the Duke of York tonight.

The food was great. I had the chicken curry tonight.

Our server made us feel welcome. I really appreciate the patio being kept open into late October.

I'll be back soon.“

“Kyla was amazing!!!! She was so accommodating to our group!! We had a huge group for our summer social event and everything was great. Patio was perfect. Food was excellent and Kyla’s service was beyond exceptional. Despite our large group, she was able to meet our expectations on another level. Will definitely be back :)“

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.“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“We came tonight for our friends 50 th birthday party! We all had an amazing time! The food and service was amazing:)Thank you to our server Dee! (The receipt says Dinh-‘em) Your service was amazing!“

“Cozy place with great value, amazing food and friendly, fast service!“

“We ordered an original chicken, rose teokbokki and fries with garlic mayo dipping sauce. All of the items we ordered were really great and amazing. Chickens are crispy, teokbokki delicious and crunchy fries with amazing sauce. Would recommend it to everyone and will visit again if we have a chance“

“We came here to watch a soccer match. The hostess conveniently seated us not too far from the screen. The server was great, fast and incredibly friendly:)

Even tho we didn't plan eating, I'm glad we decided to order the sausage board“

“Great specials through the week! Would like to see something special for the upcoming Robbie Burns Day!“

“Great place. Wonderful staff, amazing owner.“

“Amazing staff and the best food on kingston“

“My first visit to Timothy’s to see Orange Man Group and it sure won’t be my last. They show hospitality that is top class. The doorman was welcoming and friendly, the bartender took care of us better than some fine dining establishments we have been to. Thank you for a wonderful experience.“

“Comfortable, clean place with that local bar vibe, the place where a few regulars keep it going, people seem to know each other, not too busy, dark woodwork with nooks, and friendly, caring bartenders, pretty good quality of food and value for money for where it places in the restaurant hierarchy.“

“Lots of great activities happening e.g. the Monday night trivia.“

“Everything. Great food, entertainment, great service“

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

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

“Came in to sit at the bar. My server/bartender Miho was very attentive and took care of all my needs.

I had the chef selection 12pc, which included aburi and nigiri. It was all made fresh and tasted amazing. If I could give this place 6 stars I would. Definitely try it out.“

“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!“

“Only stopped in for a wonderful pint so can't comment on the food or upstairs, but enjoyed ourselves in the snug down stairs bar. Great selection of beers and super staff. Legend has it if you're there when the Leafs lose in game 7 overtime the owner might pour you a tequila, or maybe we were just lucky.“

“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!! :)“

“Beautiful casual English Pub. Close to where we live. Relaxing atmosphere Delicious Pub food Outstanding Service They care for their customers You feel at home Really great for get-togethers with friends and relatives Our last birthday party there was memorable A must visit“

“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.“

“I may be biased as I spend some regular time here. Excellent rotation of Ontario craft beers on tap and packaged (cans/bottles), the menu is delicious and outside of one dish no longer on the menu, every item is drool-worthy! New menu was launched in March 2023 and the Scotch Eggs are heaven, plus some foodie worthy daily specials! Go for the nachos and wings, stay for the beer and neighbourhood vibes.“

“They have the best owners and manager! Love the wings!! ❤️“
