Dress Code

Semi-Formal

All we ask is to ensure you're comfortable enough to party, and have a good time. That means, no tuxedos, no ball gowns, and no pressure to wear heels, as there will be limited seating (no sit-down dinner).

Menu

You can expect a wide range of many, many, many canapés, petite entrées, and carving/grazing stations. We want to keep things casual and interactive, so this will be a cocktail-style experience (no plated dinner).  

Directions & Map

Our venue is conveniently located in downtown Toronto. You can take public transportation (TTC), taxis, Uber, or Lyft to get here.

Parking Info

There is street parking around the restaurant, as well as two public parking lots on Ossington closer to Queen.

Transportation

Getting to Downtown Toronto

The easiest and cheapest way to get from Pearson International Airport to downtown Toronto is by train, the UP Express. The train will bring you to the central train station, and from there you can take a taxi, Uber, or Lyft to your home for the weekend. Be sure to pick up a PRESTO card for your train ride if you plan to take public transportation around the city.

Taxis, Uber, and Lyft are also available from Pearson International Airport.

Things to do
Activities

St. Lawrence Market

One of the world's greatest markets, St.Lawrence contains over 120 specialty vendors, known for the variety and freshness of their fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, grains, baked goods and dairy products, as well as for the uniqueness of the non-food items for sale. We especially love the veal parmesan sandwiches from Uno Mustachio, seafood from Buster's Sea Cove, and the famous peameal bacon sandwiches from Carousel Bakery.

Stackt Market

Eat, drink, shop, and be merry at an outdoor/indoor market made up entirely of shipping containers. We especially love Belgian Moon Brewery, and sipping wine in the Casa Campo Wine Yurt.

Kensington Market

Toronto's most unique neighbourhood, Kensington Market retains its charm and wonderful diversity through its eclectic mix of vintage clothing stores, grocers, restaurants and cafes. We especially love Seven Lives Tacos, FIKA Cafe, Moonbean Cafe, and Wanda's Pie in the Sky.

Toronto Islands

A 13-minute ferry ride from downtown Toronto, we recommend starting at Ward's Island or Centre Island. Take in some of the best views of the city, and opt for a canoe ride on Lake Ontario or a bike ride across the archipelago.

Distillery Historic District

An internationally acclaimed village of one-of-a-kind stores, shops, galleries, studios, restaurants, cafes, theatres, and more, all located in a pedestrian-only, old whisky distillery. We especially love Cluny Bistro for meals, Mill St. Brewery for a drink, SoMA for desert, and Balzac's for coffee. 

Entertainment

TIFF Bell Lightbox

The permanent home of the world-renowned Toronto International Film Festival. TIFF offers daily movie screenings, lectures, discussions, festivals, workshops, events, and opportunities to interact with filmmakers from around the world. Even if you aren't going to see a movie, we highly recommend taking advantage of the daily Happy Hour specials (4-9 PM) at the TIFF Founders Lounge on the second floor. 

Second City

Yes, like the one in Chicago. This improv theatre is where comedy greats like Catherine O'Hara and John Candy got their start.

Ripley's Aquarium

Check out local and tropical fish, and make sure you don't miss the octopus!

The Rec Room

40,000 sq feet of eats, drinks, games and entertainment in the heart of downtown!

Watch the Jays play the Texans at the iconic Rogers Centre!

Transportation

We recommend using public transportation (TTC) as much as possible. Taxis, Uber, and Lyft are also available. You can get a PRESTO card when you first arrive so that you don't have to pay cash for transportation.
