Sushi Bar is a brand new addition to Leslieville.  They have taken over the location formerly occupied by SOMA Lounge right at the corner of Queen and Broadview.  If you are looking for reasonably priced sushi with a large menu, but nothing too…More »

Best sushi take-out in town. Amazing quality of fish and friendly staff.  A little on the expensive side but they make up for it in all sorts of "on-the-house" extras...

The day I heard Ed's was moving into Leslieville I literally jumped for joy!  Their original location in the Beaches has been an east end staple for ages, but this new location puts delicious hand made ice cream within a 5 minute walk from my front…More »

I really enjoy this place. They have a great Americano. Staff is friendly and the place is also bike friendly. They have a nice but small patio which is great for summer sipping.

Over the last few months I've heard a lot of good things about Helo Velo and finally got a chance to check them out myself.

The shop is located on Carlaw just north of Queen.  The front door is a little hidden down an alley but if you look for the big…More »

I've been a member for a few years now. Price is decent. Gym isn't super fancy but they have everything you need to get a good workout. It's pretty much the neighbourhood gym and you always tend to run into "the regulars".

This place is the best paint store I have ever gone to and continue to buy all my paint here anytime I have a job to do.  The staff is amazing and really know their stuff.  They are always happy to help you, even if you don't know what you're doing.

Carbon is a great local Mac shop.  Have used their service depot a couple times and they have taken good care of me.  They tend to carry things you can't find at the Apple Store...

This is a slightly older, less fancy Loblaws compared to others in the area, but it gets the job done consistently.  

They have a pretty large selection of fruits and vegetables that are typically quite fresh although on the rare occasion they tend to…More »
