Where to Eat
Tonight
Editor's Pick · Restaurants & Bars
The Boardwalk Bistro
Seasonal New American cuisine steps from the water. We use local Ontario produce and Lake Erie fish to craft menus that change with the seasons. Our patio on the boardwalk is the best seat in the neighbourhood on a summer evening.
Restaurants & Bars
The Beaches Brewing Co.
Neighbourhood craft brewery and taproom pouring small-batch ales, lagers, and seasonal releases. Our Queen Street patio is Toronto's best spot for a cold pint in the sun. Kitchen serves elevated pub fare until midnight.
Community Groups
Balmy Beach Club
A beloved Beaches institution since 1906, Balmy Beach Club sits right on the waterfront offering dining, events, and that quintessential neighbourhood gathering spirit. Whether you're catching a meal with a lake view or joining in on community activities, this is where locals come to celebrate what makes the Beaches special.
Restaurants & Bars
The East End Bottle Shop
Toronto's east-end answer to a proper wine shop. Curated selection of natural, biodynamic, and small-production wines. Our wine bar opens Fridays and Saturdays — book a tasting flight.
