1. Absolute Comedy
Toronto, ON M4P 2C8
(416) 486-7700
Category:
Comedy Clubs
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Absolute Comedy is a fantastic comedy club. I've been to this location twice now (once with a group of 20, and once with just 4 four of us), as well as the Ottawa location. All three times I've left quite impressed.
Keep in mind, you should make…More »
2. Alize Catering - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M4P 2H6
(416) 487-2771
My boyfriend and I were contact through Yelp and offered free entrées on account of our previous experience at Alize (see below). At the end of our meal we were surprised when they took care of our entire bill (all $110 of it!) We also identified…More »

Toronto, ON M4P 2W6
(416) 987-7288
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Yonge and Eglinton
This place surprised me, in a very good way.
We ordered a coffee and cappuccino and grabbed a seat at the last available table (it was Saturday afternoon and the place was absolutely packed).
A minute or so after getting settled in they called our…More »
4. Boston Pizza
Toronto, ON M4P 3A2
(416) 485-2500
Category:
Canadian (New)
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Boston Pizza the restaurant gets 2 stars. Boston Pizza the biggest patio in the Yonge and Eg area gets 3 stars if all you're doing is drinking draft beer.
In the winter, apart from UFC fights, this place has always been pretty dead when we've been…More »
5. Bulldog Coffee
Toronto, ON M4P 1G8
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
It always makes me so happy to see new independent coffee shops arriving on the Y&E scene with so many chains dominating the market, especially since sitting in a coffee shop debating life's little things is one of my favourite ways to spend an…More »

Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Breakfast & Brunch,
Delis
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Two one star reviews?! Eep, I'm glad I haven't eaten sandwiches here before.
In my opinion their coffee and cappuccino's are great, especially on the patio in the summer and they have a good selection of traditional Italian desserts.
My boyfriend…More »

Toronto, ON M4S 2M9
(416) 544-9035
Categories:
Breakfast & Brunch,
French
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant and Davisville
This place is known for their fabulous brunches!
A lovely french restaurant in every sense of the word. Beautifully decorated with tiled floors, taupe walls, and a simple clean decor.

8. Cheese Emporium
Toronto, ON M4P 3B7
(416) 440-1462
Category:
Cheese Shops
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Let the raving begin!
I love cheese and this place has an impressive selection. The sales staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and will let you sample as many cheeses as you'd like before you buy. Beware though, they are a bit on the pushy side and you…More »
9. Chimichanga Mexican Grill & Tequila Bar - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M4P 2E6
(416) 480-2446
I came here with a few girl friends on a Friday night and we were kept very happy all night long.
It is an absolute MUST to order the fresh cut salsa and homemade nacho chips. For $2.99 the portion is massive and they are absolutely delicious.
I see…More »
10. Cobblers Corner Shoe Repair
Toronto, ON M4P 1Y5
(416) 486-7463
Category:
Shoe Repair
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
This place is run by a little oriental man who speaks just enough English to get by in this wonderful shoe repair shop.
For $10 a pair he will take your shoes, replace the heel and do whatever else it takes to turn your shoes back to brand new!…More »
11. Coquine Restaurant
Toronto, ON M4S 2A4
(416) 322-6767
Category:
French
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant and Davisville
Coquine is the crème de la crème of restaurants in the area for atmosphere, food and service!
Coquine has that dark cozy feel to it (my kind of restaurant)! The clientele was a trendy group, the staff extremely friendly and the food amazing,…More »
12. DAVIDsTEA
Toronto, ON M4P
(416) 480-0002
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
First let me start by saying this is NOT a place to sit and drink tea. They have two small tables but it feels super awkward to drink you tea here, I think it's meant more as a waiting area. They do take-out tea and tea latte's though.
As an…More »
13. Duke of Kent
Toronto, ON M4P 2C6
(416) 485-9507
Categories:
Pubs,
Restaurants
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
One of the few pub patios in the area that gets a fair amount of sun in the summer (a lot of the rest are shady from all the tall buildings in the area).
For a place that doesn't have a ton of seating inside on the main floor we usually manage to find…More »
14. Future Shop
Toronto, ON M4P 2H4
(416) 489-4726
Category:
Computers
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
NEVER AGAIN will I spend a cent at this store.
I get that it's Christmas and they're hiring a bunch of people just for the season who aren't trained properly but this is just atrocious.
Here's my experience:
December 12th (15 minutes, pleasant…More »
15. The Fox and Firkin
Toronto, ON M4P 1G7
(416) 480-0200
Category:
Pubs
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
This place is NOT my favourite pub in the area, it just always feels a bit dirty. I love a good dark dank pub but this one misses the mark feeling grungy and open rather than dark and cozy.
It's pretty small inside. I've ordered Nachoes and wings here…More »
16. Fresh Ginger Vietnamese Cuisine
Toronto, ON M4R 1A1
(647) 430-8686
Category:
Vietnamese
Neighbourhood: Yonge and Eglinton

Categories:
Diners,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
This is a pretty typical greasy breakfast place serving your standard breakfast options at a reasonable price.
Our waitress was a lady in her 50's who was pleasant enough, but busy and the service wasn't too bad either.
I slightly prefer Mars Uptown…More »
18. Granite Brewery & Restaurant
Toronto, ON M4P 3B7
(416) 322-0723
The Granite Brewery surprised me. I have walked by this place a hundred times before and my impression from the outside has always been that it's just an old dive desperately in need of a makeover that never gets much business. The reality is…More »
19. Grazie Ristorante
Toronto, ON M4P 2C8
(416) 488-0822
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Grazie has mass appeal. The flavours are simple, predictable, and fresh. It's huge inside, child friendly and just bustling with activity.
I came here with a group of girls last night and despite the fact it was a Wednesday, starting around 6:15…More »
20. La Vecchia
Toronto, ON M4P 2E7
(416) 489-0630
Category:
Italian
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
La Vecchia came on high recommendation from friends in the area and let me tell you, we were not disappointed!
We of us showed up on a Saturday evening around 8:30pm without reservations. There were two groups in front of us but we got away with only…More »
21. Lime Asian Cuisine
Toronto, ON M4P 1A6
(416) 322-5463
Category:
Thai
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
The food was just so bland!
I've been intrigued by this place for ages. The minimalism decor is lovely and gives the restaurant a crisp clean feel. It seems like the kind of place where the food is foremost. Unfortunately the food had almost no taste.…More »
22. Mars Uptown
Toronto, ON M4P 2C8
(416) 322-7111
Category:
Diners
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
This is a pretty typical greasy spoon serving your standard breakfast options at a reasonable price.
There are a couple of others like this in the area (Good Bite is one) and of all of them, Mars Uptown is my favourite. I find the food here the best…More »
23. Metro
This Metro is fine, if you're looking for the best supermarket there is this isn't it, but if it's convenient I'd go ahead and shop here, there is nothing wrong with the food.
I believe the biggest reason this grocery store is getting bad ratings is…More »
24. Pizzaiolo
Toronto, ON M4S
(416) 480-0999
Category:
Food
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
A good take out pizza should be a little bit greasy, but not too greasy. It should have good crust and the toppings should taste delicious. This pizza joint meets that criteria to a T.
We ordered take-out from their fairly extensive menu. While on…More »
25. Quince
Toronto, ON M4S 2A5
(416) 488-2110
Category:
Mediterranean
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant and Davisville
We came here for Winterlicious and were underwhelmed by the food and service but impressed with the atmosphere.
Food:
Sub par.
House Cured Veal Carpaccio - The distinct flavours you would have expected from this were lacking. It wasn't bad, but it…More »
26. Scruffy Murphy's Irish Pub
Toronto, ON M4P 1E8
(416) 484-6637
Category:
Pubs
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
In terms of set up, they got this place right. They have a nice patio outside for evenings in the summer (not great for the day though because it is shady) and a mix of high top tables and bench seating inside.
They must do live music regularly…More »
27. Second Cup
Toronto, ON M4P 2L2
(416) 486-6911
Category:
Food
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
During the day this place is full of people camped out and working away on their laptops. In the evenings, it's full of visiting friends.
The building only has one floor but there is a raised section that somehow seems removed enough to limit the…More »
28. Starbucks Coffee
Toronto, ON M4P 1A2
(416) 483-6850
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
This place has a great little patio for the summer months right on Eglinton where you can sit, sip your drink and watch the foot traffic rush by. When it's not patio season you can sit inside and enjoy all the sunlight it gets from the two walls of…More »
29. The Homeway
Toronto, ON M4P 2L7
(416) 488-3242
Category:
Diners
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Why is a place with so many negative reviews about their service still in business? Because their food is fantastic!
The Homeway was recommended to me for brunch by a friend who lived in the area a few years ago and just LOVED it (it definitely beats…More »

(416) 487-7673
Categories:
Music Venues,
Pubs
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
Right above Absolute Comedy, The Rose and Crown is a pub that seems to be targeted at two audiences - soccer/rugby fans during the day (attracts a bit of an older crowd), and the 21-25 year old crowd in the evening, though you can always find your…More »
31. Unicorn Pub
Toronto, ON M4P 1J4
(416) 482-0115
Category:
Pubs
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
The Unicorn is pretty massive pub with tons of seating, perfect if you're going out with a bigger group of people. Despite the size it still manages that dark dank pub feel without being grimy.
The clientele varies massively and is pretty hard to peg…More »

Toronto, ON M4P 2C6
(416) 322-3555
Category:
DVD & Video Game Rental
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
16 steep steps above street level lies this fantastic little video store.
It's one of those independent video stores that only employs the most hardcore movie junkies. You know, the ones that find the Hollywood blockbusters a waste of time and knows…More »

Category:
Beer, Wine & Spirits
Neighbourhoods: Mount Pleasant and Davisville, Yonge and Eglinton
I learned something new on Friday night.
We were out wandering around enjoying the warm weather and we stumbled into this little Wine Rack.
They do free tastings every Thursday, Friday and Saturday so we decided to give the wine a try.
While chatting…More »

30-Day-Challenge (30)Toronto's 30 day challenge - 30 reviews in the month of October. It should be a review a day, but I fell off the bandwagon at day 22 due to a vacation to the states with little to no access to internet.

Waterloo (19)I lived in Waterloo for four solid years during university (summers, winters, springs and falls).
