Ossington Neighbourhood Guide — Toronto

Explore Ossington in Toronto: Toronto's bar street — cocktail bars, natural wine spots, and the restaurants that food media can't stop writing about

Ossington Avenue, in the 300 metres between Queen Street West and Dundas Street West, contains the highest concentration of serious cocktail bars, natural wine lists, and critically-discussed new restaurants in Toronto. The strip is where the city's chefs and bartenders go on their nights off, which is the clearest possible signal of quality. It's compact enough to walk in 10 minutes and rich enough to spend an entire evening moving between venues. What it lacks in scale it more than compensates for in quality.
