The drinks were solid, and the bartenders were super friendly which made the whole experience feel really welcoming.

Good spot to come with friends for a drink especially if you're looking for something lowkey but still a little different from the usual downtown bars.

A classic Punk / Rock n Roll Bar in Toronto CA. Basically the CBGB's of that scene…read more It's been around since the early 1990's and is exactly what a spot like this should be. Very nondescript outside facade - no sign telling you what it is other than a small "BSC" (for Bovine Sex Club) painted near the door. Hard to miss though as the exterior is made up a punk rock style sculpture of rusted bikes & other assorted ephemera. The interior is similar, visually. Great sound system & chill vibes pervade throughout. Weirdly the stage is right in the entrance of the club, on your left, with a long bar along the right side, heading back. Great, crowd, great location in cool area with lots of restaurants & plenty of parking - both on the street up to 2 hours & extended parking for a flat-rate of CA$20 (~$14 USD) from 6:00pm until the next morning, just 2 blacks away.

The Bovine is a fantastic place that is the same today as it was decades ago. not only that, but it…read moreis also one of the cheapest pints that you can find. Now, are the taps dry? Maybe. Are the beer cans running out? It's possible. But, it's a dive in the way of the old dives. And the acoustics for bands are... not great. But they are a sign of what once was. Without attempting to try to present a front of a time long gone, The Bovine simply exists today as it once did in that time long ago, before Smokes stickers, before iPhones, back when people would just go to a bar to talk with those they didn't know the morning prior. Bring cash though, unless you're looking to make some big orders, because credit card is a minimum fifty-dollar spend.

Apparently this place was renovated into a more upbeat and classy atmosphere. I really love their white couches and light strips around the walls. It makes the room feel more comfy and upscale! (Tip: minimum age is 18 years old). The servers were such sweethearts. They are so down to earth and friendly to talk to. They also have belly dancers preform in the lounge at around 11:00 pm, but you have to pay an additional fee if you want to watch the performance. The lounge does not serve alcoholic beverages. Instead, they sell soda, bottled water, and green tea! (tip: they have no diet soda for those self-conscious people). My boyfriend and I got the premium flavor called White Gummy Bear. It was light, not too sweet, and very tasty! We also ordered a hot green tea with 2 sugars. The combination of green tea and gummy bear definitely hit the spot. The total bill came out to be $31 including tax but not tip, which is pretty cheap compared to New York City standards. The whole experience was worth it. This lounge was definitely LIT!

It was a little disconnected and I asked the server what was the story and she let me know the co owners, who established this 30 years ago, one was from Asia and one from Buffalo and now their kids run it.
