When it comes to video rental stores Suspect Video is a Toronto landmark. I've been going to Suspect on and off since the early 90's and as far as I know they are Toronto's first true independent video store to offer rental of movies that lie on the…More »

Eliah's Big List of Go To Indie Coffee Houses. (36)
