    I was visiting Toronto on a business trip this week and had to swing into one of my favourites. Staff was hospitable some more friendlier then others, service was great. You can tell that the employees all cared about the room and their regulars. Even though the front room is tiny and had a live band the sound was on point, meaning I could still have a drink and socialize without screaming. The back room is cozy and offers a break from the live music and classic pinball and old school movies on the televisions. Their heated upstairs patio Tiki bar seems like a fun summer hangout spot, it was a bit chilly when we visited so we didn’t stay on the deck very long. All in all fantastic dive bar! Will return!

    The Rex Hotel Jazz and Blues Bar are located at the heart of Toronto Downtown. This place defines a 'cozy place.' The music started at 8.30 PM, as they mentioned on the ticket. We bought a ticket for Roberto Occhipinti Quartet. We preferred to sit in the bar section, which was very influential in comparing the price and quality. I can suggest buying a ticket from the bar section if you like. You can see the main scene, don't worry. To have the best personal music listening experience, I suggest going with a maximum of 2 people. You can even feel meditating on the music while you go alone and sip your drink. Rex Jazz and Blues Bar are highly recommended for a relaxing night experience. Prices are fair; you must wait a while to deliver your order. That is the only negative side—overall good experience.

    This bar is a great place to get beers and listen to local bands. Definitely get there early if you want a place to sit or if you want to get a spot near the stage.

    Ok, so here’s the thing….I HATE karaoke, it’s personally not my idea of fun. That being said, I was brought here for my sister-in-law’s birthday and putting my feelings for karaoke aside, it’s a nice establishment! Private rooms are great, lots of song choices, it’s clean, and the guy checking IDs at the door was ok that I rested my ears by him for a few minutes at a time and he even offered me a seat ahaha he was very nice and I appreciate his help and understanding. Good drinks here as well! Could be sound-proofed a little better but other than that if you’re a karaoke fan and are spending time drinking in Toronto, this could be a fun spot for you!

    This club had a really high energy, the people were very lively and the drag show was pretty good. My wife and I really enjoyed it

    Stand up comedy can be hit or miss. The show I saw was a hit! It was one hilarious comedian after another. The acts could have been on much bigger comedy circuits. When I called to make reservations the lady who took my reservations was super nice and even remembered I called when I came in. I got an order of wings which were decent. Not the nicest looking place inside, very dated, but I guess that's what comedy clubs look like.

    A classic, cool looking venue. Lots has been filmed here including What We Do In The Shadows. A very old venue, but so loved. The sound is good, I’ve seen so many shows here and was even lucky enough to perform here opening up for All That Remains! Great memories are made here!

    We had a great night at the El Mocambo!! We were there to see Honeymoon Suite who put on an amazing show. The venue is very iconic with a welcoming feel. We had VIP balcony seats and had a great view of the stage. the staff were very attentive. Thank you Tyler for keeping an eye on us. We will definitely be back for more shows. Thank you El Mocambo, and thank you Honeymoon Suite. You rocked the place!! Check them out wherever they are playing. Fingers crossed they come back to the Elmo.

    Had an amazing coffee and wonderful visit to this cafe. The Deaf barista was wonderful and I learnt some new signs in LSF, too.

    On the plus side, the service is excellent and the surroundings are congenial. One the minus side, the prices are high for what is on offer, and the music is played too loudly.

    Was there for our Christmas lunch with about 150 ppl, it was crowded but enjoyable. The décor is cool and staff is nice. The food was good. However the seating at the tables along the walls does not work for people trapped all the way against the wall! It was a pain to get to go to the washroom or to grab a drink.

    I think I was the only Torontonian who had never visited the Maddy, until yesterday. And the verdict.... a student pub that has become grungy over the years. An okay selection of beers, to be sure, but there is an odor hanging in the place that makes one wonder. It`s a snapshot of what Canadian pubs were like 25 years ago.
