Description:
DOWNTOWN. The owner of this posh lounge furnished it with acquisitions he found in a Marrakesh market, so the look is authentically colorful. Pillows and mirrors are abundant, which adds to the exotic vibe. Don't expect to mingle with a bunch of wild, trendy youngsters the clientele is hip, but they're a bit more mature and laid back. Music is cool downbeat, perfect for lounging on a couch with a cocktail. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. Subterranean it may be, but C'est What is definitely not sub-par. Dedicated to all things local, the establishment promotes Toronto with exhibits from regional artists and shows from local musicians in their state-of-the-art performance room/recording studio. Before they made it big, the intimate space hosted Barenaked Ladies, Jeff Buckley and Jewel, among others. An amazing selection of beverages includes their own line of craft brewed beers and wines, an array of Ontario microbrewed beers and wines, plus a great list of whiskies. In keeping with Toronto's rep as a multi-cultural city, the menu features fantastic food from around the world. A true Toronto favorite. |

The place has continued to live up to the initial kudos, offering a classy space with several tables and impressive food and beverage menus (no greasy wings and canned Schlitz here!). If the pool tables are occupied or you simply want a break, you'll find a number of other diversions in the form of board games, everything from chess to Boggle to Risk. Some Friday nights host live bands or magic shows. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. Well, technically, it isn't London, but it sure feels like it could be! The d้cor is old school British upper class: carefully finished wood floors, overstuffed armchairs, chandeliers and a fireplace. It's popular and difficult to get in you may want to call ahead a few days and get yourself on the guest list. And whatever you do, don't show up in shredded jeans and flip flops. |
