We had a girls get together at Archeo's for Sunday brunch. Brunch was lovely, atmosphere enticing. We also had dinner at Pure Spirits, amazing seafood, compliments to the Aussie chef. After brunch and dinner we took a stroll throughout the cobblestone area which houses art galleries, spice shops, hat shops, bars, crafts, jewellery trinklets and a good selection of clothes... More

Conveniently located in downtown you can walk from Union Station through St. Lawrence Market to the Distillery. There are a couple of art galleries and unique retailers. Frequent local craft markets are here in the warmer months. My favourites are Soma for chocolate and Balzacs for coffee. There's public parking nearby as well. My only complaint is there are limited... More

The pedestrian only area of the Distillery are a relaxing get away from the car congested streets of Toronto. Great galleries, shops, restaurants, cafes, excellent patios. I don't recommend heals - the streets are mainly cobblestone. I highly recommend getting a "hot chocolate" from SOMA Chocolate Shop. YUM!!! Weekends in summer can be very busy and winter days can be... More

Lots of foody places to chose from, seafood is a must. It can be quite pricey. Nice shops to browse around too,

A great place to visit to shop, window shop or dine in or out. A sympathetic restoration of lovely brick buildings on a site with a very interesting history, nice to wander around.

Perfect for walks, dining, coffee breaks or pints. This area reminded us of London Docklands. They have a nice market that sells a lot of independent home made goods. We went to Balzac's coffee. Perfect to wind down and sip on coffee. The Distillery District is also located approx 7-10mins walk from St Lawrence market. You should visit both locations.

Got off the Hop On-Hop Off Tour stop here. A nice place to spend a couple hours. The re-use of these old buildings and stone streets to develop a very nice eating and shopping district is commendable. The shops I visited were pricey, but had unique wares. It wasn't quite supper time for us so we didn't eat, but could... More

The Distillery District is a great place to go and wander for at least half a day, even a whole day. There are lots of little shops full of interesting crafts and vintage stuff, as well as an amazing artisan chocolate shop (expensive but worth it!). Also lots of galleries with interesting art and photography. There are several restaurants, but... More

An interesting area but expensive and mainly art displays I expected more there but interesting for a wander around if you have an hour or 2 to kill
