What travellers are saying
- DahtorqTorquay, United Kingdom172 contributionsVibrant, buzzy, a lovely place to visit.. especially on an early evening as it starts to wake up…great selection of bars and food places tooWritten September 29, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AerowingMonee, IL5,028 contributionsThis is a bohemian style neighborhood in Toronto worth checking out at least once when you’re here
There’s plenty of shops and restaurants to see. It’s very close to the Chinatown part of the town too. There’s plenty of thrift shops along the streets as well, but they tend to be a bit pricey.
Plan on spending at least 2 to 3 hours here to check out everything.Written September 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- GoForNToronto, Canada33 contributionsLived in the area all my life up until retirement. Lots to do with Kew Beach and Woodbine Park, Ashbridges Bay in the area. Wonderful places to eat "The Goof" in particular which is a Legendary Local spot to eat, with the Fox Theater right across the street. Lots of individual shopping experiences unlike the huge Malls the Beach Village offers independent proprietors with unique items, check out Segull and the Artisans store, they were my favorites. I miss my Village. It holds a huge part of my heart forever.Written February 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Czar EmmanuelManila, Philippines6,235 contributionsLocated near Toronto's Chinatown, this alley, which runs across three blocks, is full of graffiti, some of which are really beautiful and artistic. I just hope that they would clean the street to make it look wholesome and more attractive to tourists. With all its wall paintings, this alley really looks like an open-air museum for free! 😀Written August 11, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- lgbeattyyToronto, Canada3 contributionsWas there for the Cabbagetown Festival which was fantastic! So many vendors of food and other interesting things. The main street was closed and turned into a festive pedestrian mall, where the different restaurants on the street set up dining areas. And great, free music of all kinds was everywhere. Off of the main street there are many well-preserved Victorian homes and an urban farm with heritage breeds of animals, free admission. There's a beautiful old graveyard near the farm, one of the oldest in Canada. Enjoyed all the little laneways and plaques that honour famous people who lived in the houses. So walkable, but easy access to downtown Toronto by public transit.Written September 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bernard L. Fontaine, Jr.Monroe, NJ1,293 contributionsAs we toured around Toronto, this was one of our destinations to see. It was everything people talked about in their reviews. So many restaurants to eat and shopping galore. Parking was a big problem since there are so few places on the street. We spent some time walking around to enjoy the atmosphere on a beautiful day.Written June 5, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- minimize940314Los Angeles, CA3,527 contributionsOne of the fanciest part of Toronto. Tall buildings are everywhere, and the atmosphere is relatively safe compared to other sectors of the city. You will see major financial companies, such as banks, accounting firms, etc.Written August 20, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
