For mugs of beer and games of ping-pong

PONG BAR

Brookfield Place 187 Bay St.

416-628-7014

tucked away behind Lovejoy (and hipster haircut spot Barber & Co.) is Pong Bar, the subterranean sister bar to Walrus Pub and Beer Hall, and a place for Bay Street types to unwind over giant mugs of local craft beer (Blood Brothers, Halo, Burdock, Godspeed) and games of table tennis. After a hard day’s work, there’s no better way to displace pent-up anger than by exerting force on a small, inanimate object—again and again and again.
