17 Tiles Board Games & Mahjong Cafe is a board games and cafe (drinks, mocktails, and finger food,…read morecandies). It opened at the end of Mar 2023. The second floor has the board games and cafe. The third floor is the Mahjong. We played many different board games. There are 2 big cabinets of board games. There should be more. We ordered the following food: 1. Hanamikoji Mocktail ($9.99). 2. Treasure of Sumatra Mocktail ($8.99). 3. Teddy Bear Milk Tea ($6.99). 4. Flat White (small $4.99). 5. Potato Wedges ($6.99). 6. Chicken Tenders ($9.99). 7. 17 Tiles Dusted Wings ($14.99) with Chipotle Mango sauce. The mocktails were pretty and tasty. The Teedy Bear is made of ice. All the food was good, except the batter on the Chicken Tenders was too thick; the chicken was tender. The service was good. For 3 people, our games and food totaled $86.93. I toured the Mahjong rooms on the third floor out of curiosity. The setup was good. To play unlimited board games, it costs $3/p. To play in private Mahjong rooms, it costs $20/h/p. For VIP Mahjong rooms (including drinks), it costs $30/h/p. For wheelchair accessibility, you must enter an elevator at the back of the building. There is free WiFi. The place is wheelchair accessible. On each floor, there are separate male/female washrooms and one gender-neutral washroom that is wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking.

Beertown occupies a commanding footprint in Toronto's Financial District -- a sprawling,…read moreenergetically lit gastropub that announces itself with a theatre of gleaming taps and an open, convivial floor plan designed unapologetically for the after-work crowd. It is, in many respects, exactly what it intends to be: a loud, generous, unpretentious haven for those emerging from Bay Street offices or rallying before a Scotiabank Arena event. The beer programme is the undisputed centerpiece. The selection is vast and thoughtfully curated, spanning local GTA craft offerings alongside storied European imports such as Erdinger and La Trappe. Flights arrive on paddles with coasters identifying each pour -- a charming detail that rewards the curious drinker. One could spend an entire evening simply navigating the rotating taps, and many regulars do precisely that. The kitchen delivers pub fare that, while familiar in concept. Service is warm and attentive on its best evenings, with staff who clearly understand the rhythm of a busy house. However, during peak hours the pace can stretch thin, and a lapse in table attention can surface. The noise level is considerable -- an unavoidable consequence of the venue's scale and popularity. Those seeking quiet conversation will find it a challenge; those seeking energy and the communal hum of a city unwinding will feel entirely at home. For the corporate denizen of the Financial District, or the sports fan looking for a spirited pre-game gathering point, Beertown is a reliable and genuinely enjoyable destination. The beer alone is worth the visit.

Visited with my team on a weekday evening a couple of weeks ago. We walked into an almost empty…read morerestaurant and were told they needed to make sure they had room for us (we were a party of 8). Thankfully somehow they did and we sat down to order. I'm not sure if it was our server's break but a couple of other servers came to check on us but couldn't (wouldn't?) take our order until our actual server arrived a while later, which was maybe 20 minutes or so. Not deterred, as we were hungry and thirsty - we ordered the giant beer paddles for our table to share and also a few apps. The beer arrived warm quite a while later and also only had the breweries names on the coasters, not the actual name of the beer so we guessed on a few. The apps were not memorable and were only warmish - so was not blown away. Too bad as the location nearer to me in Oakville was much better in terms of food and service. Even though my office is steps away, I wouldn't rush back.

The restaurant took over the previous space of the restaurant Grapefruit Moon. This neighbourhood gem has both indoor seating for around 25 customers and a cute outdoor patio as well to the side when the weather is nice. I stopped by Daisy May's on a Thurs morning, shortly after they opened. The place wasn't busy at all and I was actually their only customer during my time there. The menu is divided up into small plates, brunch (think breakfast sandwich, eggs benny, a tartine, steak frites, and french toast), sandwiches (like the Cubano, a double smashburger, and the chicken club to name a few), as well as sides (fries, slaw, tater tots), and dessert (they have a key lime pie and a basque cheesecake!). They also have a drink list - a small list of wines, cocktails, beer/cider, and non-alcoholic options like coffee, soda, and juice. Service was friendly and I was given my space to enjoy my food and my time there. My order was placed at a reasonable time and I waited about 10-15 min for my food to arrive. Coffee of course arrived first. Food and drink wise, I ordered: - Breakfast sandwich ($11) - Grilled English muffin, chive soft scramble, American cheese, manchego, pickles, pickled jalapeno, aioli, hot sauce with a house breakfast sausage - Side of a summer salad ($5), which was their poached pear salad (champagne vinigrette, endive, raddichhio, red lettuce, mint, candied nuts) - Americano ($5) Americano was made well. Both of the food items I got were extremely delicious! The breakfast sandwich was perfect - that chive soft scramble with the American cheese was fluffy and soft, the pickles/pickled jalapeno cut the heaviness of the eggs/sausage, and the house breakfast sausage was substantial. All the ingredients worked so well together and it was a pretty amazing breakfast sandwich. The salad was also amazing as well - the candied nuts definitely added another dimension and contrast to the entire dish. It was a great salad and I would highly recommend everyone to get both items!! Overall, a great neighbourhood gem located about a 5 min walk north of Bathurst station. A great brunch if you want somewhere more local, casual, and chill with great food. Would come back again in the future for more brunch!

Well, times have changed and now we have Burdock Brewery in the building with a massive operation brewing suds. This is definitely something to check out when visiting Kensington Market. The loft design is very impressive along with the scale which is huge. Their bottle shop is a wraparound wall of coolers with an extensive collection of beers including several different types of IPAs, my fave! I tried the session IPA which means it is lower in alcohol, usually below 5% allowing the drinker to have a session of several beers instead of one knocking you off your game, like the stronger versions. These beers can be found in bars around the area, including my favourite bar, Handlebar basically across the street from the brewery. With the demise of Kensington Brewery, and the building up for sale, thank goodness we have a quality brewery serving a thirsty crowd here downtown and Amen to that! Highly recommended when in the area with friendly service and plenty of brews to sample, where you can buy one and drink it in the park across the street which will give you the consummate market experience and vibe : )

I recommend making a reservation especially on weekends as they can get busy. From 2-5pm and 9pm-Close they offer Happy Hour specials daily except on Sunday's which is offered all day. Walked in and requested table for 2 but hostess provided no timeframe as to how long it would take as there were other reservations. Bar was mostly full and we waited about 30 minutes. No table still but some seats became available at the bar. Strange how on OpenTable it showed availability when they said no tables available. Service at the bar was great! Very attentive despite it being a very large bar with many seats filled at capacity. Ordered a couple of drinks and food from the menu shortly after. Got their Fried Pickles and Prosciutto & Arugula Pizza to share. Overall, food was fresh and wait time to receive the food was reasonable. Except, pizza was a bit salty I think this was due to the cheese on top. Fried pickles were A-OK, lightly battered and paired well with the house made beer ranch dipping sauce. I'd recommend checking out Craft during happy hour to get the best value for both food and drinks but expect there to be a bit of a crowd! Cheers!

I went here with several colleagues and we had a blast, poorly singing along to an assortment of hits until 1am on a Thursday night. The system allowed you to select what songs you want to sing along to easily, and the service was fast - someone promptly came along with drinks.
