Having seen this bar listed in BlogTO as one of the best bars of 2016, I decided I needed to see for myself. Located on Gerrard St, this small and low-key bar packs an interesting punch. It's kitschy and fun and just a great time. The owner (I think her name is Rachel) has another bar in Kensington and I can definitely see that vibe in here. There are a few tables and a long bar to sit at. Definitely get the Chili Gonzalez if you are here and like a bit of spice in your drinks. This hands down was the favorite. Rachel (I'm really hoping this is her name....lol) can even customize your drink for you if you don't like a particular ingredient. She was lovely to talk to and I look forward to coming back here for another spicy night :)

Now here was an inviting place, old 50-ies movie playing in the back, on a wall covering screen, pinball machine in the corner.

Cabana is a beautiful lake side venue with a lucrative city skyline view…read more I've been here a few times, and it's fun. They have lockers - make sure you bring multiple toonies, since they may not have the change to give you. It's not cheap, but it's worth it to experience a pool bar with views in Toronto. Since it's away from the city center, they can go big with sound. Another convenience is that one event got cancelled because of rain, and they moved us to the space above Rebel. I don't know if they do this with all events, but this was convenient. There is some food being served. I haven't tried it, but at least it's there.

The place is great, we went twice in one weekend! Parking is expensive at 30$ CAD, (around 25$ USD)…read morewith a 2$ additional charge if you use card. Didn't try any of the food but it looked pretty good, the drinks were great. Bartenders are quick to get you situated, we didn't try renting a cabana. Pool on Saturdays is an additional charge of like $20 CAD ($15ish dollars USD) for Men, on top of already having men pay to get in. Ladies sometimes free before 3pm. Check their website for event details. Vibe was fantastic, DJs playing some outstanding house music sets. Security seems a bit over eager to throw people out though. Don't cause trouble and you'll be fine. I didn't have a single issue. No outside towels allowed, and check their website for the dress code. Pool gets gross after a while so go early if you wanna swim lol.

This is a solid place to go for a pint. The location is great, with lots of shops to visit nearby…read moreand the dining area opens into a plaza where they were showing football and movies on a big screen set up for the summer. I was there on a day where they seemed to be understaffed, though. Our server was very nice and full of good recommendations, but had too many tables to keep up. I had a kolsch and the pickle chips. The pickles were tempura battered and surprisingly bland for vegetables that are soaked in brine. The dipping sauce and cold beer made up for it.

We visited this place during the holiday market so it was packed. There was a wait since it was a…read moregroup of 8. They said it would be a 30 minute wait and that we would get a text. We got a text that our table is ready 30 mins later. However, when we checked in, our table was not ready. We waited for 5 minutes until another hostess approached us and she put our tables together. Once we were seated, we weren't even given any menus. It wasn't until 15 mins after that someone checked in on us since she asked if anyone has taken our order, to which we replied we haven't gotten any menus yet. She gave us a few minutes to look through the menu and took our drink orders then food order. We only ordered some appetizers to share. Our drinks took awhile, but once we got it, so did our food. My favorite was the dip trio with pita. Pro tip: mix the dip for some serious flavor explosion.
