1. Natural 9 Bubble Tea
Toronto, ON M5T
(416) 593-0297
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Kensington Market, Downtown Core
This is my FAVOURITE bubble tea place.
"It's like the Starbuck of bubble tea" my friend proclaimed when I took her there. A bold statment comparing a small hole in the wall bubble tea establishment to a multi-billion and largest coffee company in the…More »
2. The Innis Cafe
Toronto, ON M5S 1J5
(416) 977-7434
Inexpensive, and delicious. It's hard to get a seat, and there will probably be a line whenever you go, but the food is good, the prices are low, and I love that I can get fresh juices and smoothies on campus, as well a a decent selection of salads…More »
3. Seor Ak San
Toronto, ON M5T
(416) 977-2788
Category:
Korean
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Kensington Market, Downtown Core
I come here mainly for one thing. Their large hotpot of Pork Bone Soup. It says it serves 2, but really, it probably serves more like 3 people. It's a large, hot, boiling wok of spicy broth with hunks of pork bones. Don't order this however if you're…More »
4. Romeo's Fruity Fruits
Toronto, ON M5T 2M1
(416) 597-2300
Category:
Fruits & Veggies
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
Popped by to this juice and smoothie shack looking for a refreshing and healthy beverage. (Just started reading Crazy Sexy Diet, and it convinced me to up my veggie juice intake... although not to give up dairy.)
They list three sizes of drinks all…More »
5. Burger Bar
Toronto, ON M5T 2M2
(416) 922-7423
Category:
Burgers
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
Took up the unseasonably warm weather on its offer to leave work 30 minutes early and hit up a patio. Grabbed some of the last remaining seats on the Burger Bar patio to enjoy a bevvie before making the long trek out to Parkdale for dinner. I needed…More »
6. Starbucks
Toronto, ON M5S 3E5
(416) 341-0101
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
One of U of T's local Starbucks. The lines are sometimes long (especially during those cheap frappuccino days), but it moves quickly, so don't be intimidated. There is limited seating (but in the summer there are outdoor seats), but I do like this…More »
7. Urban Herbivore
Toronto, ON M5T 1P1
(416) 927-1231
Categories:
Vegan,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
There are days when I want something healthy. There are days when I want to feel virtuous. There are days when I forget to pack my lunch. Those days I often go to Urban Herbivore.
I always get their grain bowl (I don't feel like being virtuous often…More »
8. Mother's Dumplings
Toronto, ON M5T 2A8
(416) 217-2008
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Kensington Market, Downtown Core
Mother's dumplings is a good low key place to grab a quick dinner or lunch. What it lacks in romance (and decor) it makes up in the ability to people watch hipsters. The dumplings are good. Not blow you away good, but consistently good. I do wish…More »
9. Free Times Cafe
I've been a number of times for open mike night when my friends are playing, and usually take advantage of their drink specials, but this weekend was the first time I went for their 'Bella, Did you Eat' Jewish style buffet breakfast.
Oy. Excellent.…More »
10. Anh Dao Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 2G6
(416) 598-4514
Category:
Vietnamese
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Downtown Core
Great lunch option. My friend and I ordered the do it yourself rolls, and a bowl of chicken curry vermicelli noodles. The rolls were filling and fun, (but messy!) we were actually so full after sharing the roll plate that we only dipped into the…More »
11. Sky Dragon Chinese Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 3A5
(416) 408-4999
Category:
Dim Sum
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Chinatown, Downtown Core
I'm going to go against the grain here. I've been eating dim sum all my life, all over North American often with my Chinese family. (So yes, maybe this doesn't compare to Hong Kong dim sum, I'll let you know when I get there.)
Although this place…More »
12. Agave Y Aguacate
Toronto, ON M5T
(647) 208-3091
Categories:
Ethnic Food,
Mexican
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
The tostada was good. Really good. The prices and serving sizes were not. I ordered a flank steak salad and a Green Tostada. The tostada was delightful, the steak salad was alright, but it didn't blow me away. Everything was done fresh, right in…More »
13. Veda Healthy IndianTakeout
Toronto, ON M5S
(416) 961-9797
Category:
Indian
Neighbourhoods: University of Toronto, Downtown Core
I have to say I'm fairly impressed (for what it is).
I really enjoy their samosas, as well as their curries. I usually get the small curry bowl ($5 all in!), with rice, and two curries (I get the mixed veggies and chicken curry usually.) I'm a big…More »
14. Sammy's Student Exchange
Toronto, ON M5S 3H3
(416) 978-3325
Category:
Mediterranean
Neighbourhoods: University of Toronto, Downtown Core
Sammy's is a nice place to grab lunch while on campus. They have relatively healthy choices, which is really nice. I would recommend the grilled veggie pita. Healthy and hearty for $5.25 (plus tax). Today I ate the grilled spicy tofu pita, which I…More »
15. Molly Bloom's Irish Pub
Toronto, ON M5T 1P9
(416) 916-6448
My second Thursday here (after class), and this time I knew what to order! Bar rail drinks are $3.06 on Thursdays!
Yes, this is a chain bar/pub. Yes, it is hella ugly inside, and often plays music so loud you can't talk to your friends... but on the…More »
16. California Burrito
Toronto, ON M5S 3E4
(416) 858-0708
Categories:
Mexican,
Barbeque,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhoods: University of Toronto, Downtown Core
Had a pretty poor experience here on Wednesday.
I asked if the did a burrito bowl. It wasn't clearly on the menu, but I figure it's just the same stuff in a bowl, so why not ask? The guy at the cash was really nice and said ok. One point for that! He…More »
17. Average Joe's Café
Toronto, ON M5T
Categories:
Bagels,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
What a small little place! I've walked past it for years, but never noticed it. I was looking for a place for a Thursday 11am brunch (harder than it should be). Well, Yelp showed some good review for this place, and it was in the right area, so we…More »
18. My Market Bakery
Toronto, ON M5T 1L8
(416) 593-6772
Category:
Bakeries
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
I've popped in here a number of times looking for a sweet treat. I haven't been that impressed with their bread before, having tried a number of options, but really, most of the time I come in here I'm looking for some sugar. Give momma her sugar!
