1. Vapor Central
Toronto, ON M4Y 1Z9
(416) 923-3556
Category:
Cannabis Clinics
Neighbourhoods: Church-Wellesley Village, Downtown Core
Me and 3 of my fave potheads headed here Sunday night at 8pm. We were all stoked. We'd all been to the Hot Box Cafe a number of times and I'd enjoyed the Vape Lounges in Amsterdam - we were expecting something similar. This is probably the most…More »
2. Hanlan's Point
This is the only beach I am ever going to. Ever Again.
Despite my Pakistani skin, I go sunning at least three times a week in the summer. I am so sick of all the beaches in the GTA: babies (they're adorable but they smell and they puke and they cry),…More »
3. Hot Box Cafe
Toronto, ON M5T 1M1
(416) 203-6990
Categories:
Sandwiches,
Cannabis Clinics,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
Cool place, I've been here a few times with friends. Do not expect a classy cafe, The Hotbox is essentially one room painted bright lime green. There's no art on the walls, instead, the walls are covered in chalkboards and there's chalk on all the…More »
4. Mountain Eagle Books
This is the watering hole for all the hippies in Smithers, and there's quiet a few. It caters to every aspect of the "High Lifestyle", from yummy organic fair trade vegetarian eats, to delicious home brewed chai. It's teeming with used books, to…More »
5. Lahore Tikka House
Toronto, ON M4L 1Z3
(416) 406-1668
This place isn't getting five stars because I'm judging it based on Canadian standards.
It's getting five stars because I feel like I'm back in Lahore every time I step in (which is too often). Their food is Lahori, their decor is Lahori, the service…More »
6. The Hideout On Queen
Toronto, ON M5V 2B2
(647) 438-7664
Categories:
Dance Clubs,
Bars,
Music Venues
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Queen Street West
I have always ended up here after a bad experience at either: The Bovine Sex Club, Velvet Underground, or Tattoo Rock Parlour.
The cover has always been $10 to $0.
Each and every time, it has given me an uplifting end to the night.
The live bands vary…More »
7. Boun Thai Restaurant
The food smells and looks like it was teleported directly from Khoa San Road. Just amazing. Among four friends we shared: spring rolls, barbeque chicken, red chicken curry, laph and tofu stir fry.
Laph was something that we'd never tried before but…More »
8. Prana Coffee - CLOSED
This is everything that I look for in a coffee shop and more:
-kind owners that know/treat their patrons like friends
-comfy, varied, seating that meshes well
-coffee with a passion
-baked goods that aren't from Circles and Squares
-giant bookshelf with…More »
9. Thai Express
It's mediocrely delicious. It's open till 10pm. Comes in a paper take-away box. Hence why I come here all the time.
Can't comment on the rush at lunch time. Although the line has always been fairly small when I come here - anywhere between 6pm to…More »
10. Thai Green Chili
Toronto, ON M6H 1M3
(416) 532-5050
Categories:
Ethnic Food,
Thai
Neighbourhood: Dovercourt
Found ourselves here mildly inebriated after a night at the Comedy Bar. Wanted some fast Asian food. We got so much more than the substandard Thai we were expecting.
The two servers were kind and accommodated all our dazed and confused demands.
Our…More »
11. Retro Burger - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M4T 1Y5
(416) 640-0309
Category:
Burgers
Neighbourhoods: Yonge and St. Clair, Deer Park
Yes. It's official: Retro Burger and I are doin' it.
And we're doin' it all the time.
This place has awesome juicy burgers. A perfectly proportioned side of fries. It's basically Harvey's but better quality and closer to where I live.
I also love the…More »
12. Velvet Underground
Toronto, ON M5V 2B3
(416) 504-6688
Categories:
Music Venues,
Dance Clubs
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Queen Street West
I went here on Saturday night to escape from the mind numbing top 40 at most Toronto clubs. And I got what I came for: good music, ie: nirvana, Florence + the machine - the rock staples and some hits from today. I also got something unexpected: the…More »
13. Café Pamenar
Toronto, ON M5T 2M2
(647) 352-3627
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
Love it.
Have been sitting at the communal table for the past four hours studying. Have met a slew of interesting and colourful strangers - in Kensington Style, of course.
Decor is barren and minimalist, like they're in the middle of furnishing. But…More »
14. Rock Candy Boutique
Halifax, NS B3J 1L6
(902) 492-3930
Categories:
Tobacco Shops,
Music & DVDs,
Accessories
Apart from the band-related stuff that they sell, they also have a great collection of paraphanelia (vapourizers, bongs, pipes, etc.) Although they don't carry as much variety as Mary Jane's, their prices are much more reasonable. It's not uncommon…More »
15. African Palace
Toronto, ON M6H 1L7
(416) 588-7819
Please go here. Please. Please.
You will love it. You will love the food. You will love the owner, Mary.
If you are going to dine-and-dash, then - AVOID. I will personally kick your ass. The food is so genuine - genuinely delicious and genuinely cared…More »
16. The Noodle Box
The Noodle Box most certainly has above-average Thai take-out. But what it has in flavour, it makes up for in lack of service or seating.
Although I realize this is basically a take-out place, over time, the customers have begun using it as more of a…More »
17. Saigon Noodle Restaurant
So I know that when people look at this place they think that either a) they're going to get robbed on their way inside, or b) they're going to get robbed while inside. This is truly not the case! We visited this place when the munchies hit us at 2am…More »
18. Paddy's Brewpub & Rosie's Restaurant
Oh Paddy's, how I miss thee.
It's hard to go wrong in this pub as far as beer is concerned. If you're a first-timer, I would suggest getting their beer sampler. It's not very expensive and comes with a sample of either 6 or 12 of their beers. Just be…More »
19. Double Dragon Restaurant
This is the Annapolis Valley. If you're looking for authentic Chinese food, you aren't going to find it. But if you lower your expectations to decent, Canadian-inspired Asian food - you may be satisfied.
After their recent renovation, Double Dragon…More »
20. Just US Cafe
Wolfville, NS B4P 1E2
(902) 542-7731
Considering the number of Mac-yielding hipsters and tech-savvy students that hang around this place, I'm surprised to be the first to review. Just Us is most definitely the most popular coffee shop in Wolfville. And during prime student season, there…More »
21. Pomodori Pizzeria
A gem of a pizzeria in Rothesay !
They have fire roasted thin-crust pizzas. My favourite part is watching the pizzas emerge from the fiery depths of the wood-heated oven. The whole place smells like fresh pizza dough. They have many different types of…More »
