Ef, yeah, people. If you have to go to a bar in the Yonge/Bloor area (besides Hemingways, which is in tony Yorkville), this is it. Kinda divey, but laid back and fun.
It's convenient to UofT and the Bloor/Yonge area. Pub grub is surprisingly…More »
Totally neat pub... I always thought from the outside (when I lived in the hood) that it was going to be seedy, but that may have been because a pack of four bums got me to give them half a Pizza Pizza when I was passing by the Pilot on a cold night.…More »
Located just north of the Rosedale station on Yonge Street, Rebel House is a good place to go if you want a beer or two and perhaps some food. I sat upstairs for some post-dinner drinks with old buddies. We weren't eating (except for one friend who…More »

I liked that, despite the location in swanky Yorkville, this place was pretty chill all-around. Being near UofT, many bars in the area were kind of annoying and swamped with undergrads, but I really enjoyed going here. The food isn't bad, either -…More »
I used to love the Green Room. It was a chill place to get together. Good for drinks, but also decent food. The rundown couches and mismatched chairs just added character. Then one time I went there when it was still light outside - and what a…More »

This location is right by Bloor & Avenue, so it's really close to UofT residences and Yorkville. As such, prepare to get…More »

The "Engineering" bar. Two words: jagermeister and frickles. Yep, they have jagermeister on tap. Believe it or not, this teetotaler gives them mad props, as it's the only liqueur I will down. And $2 jager nights too.
Plus, they have fried pickles.…More »
Way too bougie for this bo-bo.
I really liked Rowers and it's laid back vibe. This place is just too pricey and for what? The atmosphere lacks compared to Rowers... if I want to watch fire on a display screen I can do that at home, thank you very…More »
Ew. I'm all for dive bars, but not ones where I think I might contract the clap. Went here for some grad school outings, but the griminess of the place definitely reduced the enjoyment. (note, we were upstairs, so this is what the review covers)
