DRINK
CLEMENTINE
Filled with ornately detailed cabinetry inspired by the art nouveau movement, this intimate craft cocktail spot is a romantic time warp. Sip a Hacienda — a blend of mezcal, pineapple and chilli oil — while snacking on oysters. BARCLEMENTINE.CA
BIERA
The restaurant arm of Blind Enthusiasm Brewing is the main attraction at Ritchie Market, a burgeoning hipster hangout that’s home to a butcher, a bike shop, and a coffee house — not to mention beards and beat-up denim jackets galore. BIERA.CA
COFFEE BREAU
Stop into this cozy downtown java spot to hear Yo La Tengo playing on the stereo system and regulars being greeted by name. Coffee beans courtesy of local roaster Ace make for memorably rich americanos.
