Nightclubs and bars: Welcome to Mother Russia
  • Tip Rating:
  • Named after the Communist Party's mouthpiece newspaper, this place serves one thing: vodka--but about 30 different ways. To be honest, I don't remember a lot about it but my guide said that it hosts many celeb events and my espresso-tini was pretty uplifting.

    I had khakis and a dressier shirt and got in. Pricing is $10 a drink; you make the call.

    Nightclubs and bars: Schmooze it up!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Very cool spot. From the size of the bouncers you know it's got high standards (how I got in I'll never know). A big bar in the middle with a few levels. No dancing, just standing and, well, schmoozing. $10 to get in...unsure of the drink price (thankfully probably). One thing...if you go to the loo you have to leave your drink on a table outside of the (well-guarded) door (a looong way outside it. Sink area is co-ed, which is interesting. AND, I just learned, on Fridays from 5pm-9pm drinks (including Heineken and vodka mixers) are just $2 EACH! No wonder the green bottles were coming fast and furious that night!

    Dress up.

    Nightclubs and bars: Beer and English football.

  • Elephant and Castle Pub, Toronto - Toronto
    Elephant and Castle Pub,

    I visited the Elephant and Castle pub on Yonge Street one afternoon during my visit to Toronto in February 2006. It is a typically English pub with a large bar, English beers on draught, a dining area and flat screen TVs mounted above the bar showing, amongst other things, live English football. As well as English beers, the pub also offers Canadian beers (Molson and Labatts) on draught and various bottled import beers. My visit coincided with a Premiership match between Liverpool and Arsenal, so I bought a pint of (expensive) Boddingtons (7.30 CAD) and settled down at the bar to watch the game.

    Nightclubs and bars: My Favourite After Work Bar
  • Tip Rating:
  • I frequently get asked at work "Where should we go for a drink?". When I say "the Irish Embassy", I get puzzled stares and maybe a giggle thinking that I am making a joke relating to the Irish stereotype with regards to beer consumption. In fact the Irish Embassy is a very popular, somewhat upscale pub, in the middle of the business district in Toronto. The pub is especially popular with business people after work and all the suits seem to mesh well with the marble-top and brass decor. The Irish Embassy is housed in a building built in 1873 that used to be a bank so it has high ceilings and is very spacious. It is also very popular on the weekends. I come here during important football and hockey matches like the Winter Olympics, European Cup and Champions League games.

    At time business attire after work to fit in but usually casual.

    Nightclubs and bars: The Rex Hotel
  • Tip Rating:
  • The best place to see and hear Jazz in Toronto. The Rex used to be a dive where serious drinkers hang out but over the years it has been renovated. Now best Jazz musicians in Canada make frequent visits. The cover charge ranges from $4 to $10. The beer is relatively cheap. So is the food which includes pretty decent burgers. My one problem with the Rex is that it is noisy whereby few patrons actually seem to be terribly interested in listening to the band. The Rex receives alot of tourist traffic because of it's proximity to the large international hotels. The Hilton is just two blocks east.

    Come as you are.

    Nightclubs and bars: Feathers
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is a pub located in the Beaches area of Toronto. It's fantastic! One of my co-workers is a part-owner of the place and everyone from work just loves it there. They've got the biggest collection of single malt whiskeys in the area. Food is available and it is as tasty as you'll find anyway. Be sure to check out all the photos on the walls. Many were taken by Terry Culbert (my co-worker) and they focus on the British Isles and pubs and distilleries of that part of the world. I was delighted to see pics of places I had been in Scotland.

    Nightclubs and bars: The Docks Entertainment...
  • Tip Rating:
  • This place is huge! Located right on the waterfront and has tons of things to keep you entertained. For example, there's a driving range, a mini putt, paint ball, beach volleyball, rock climbing, pool tables, a flying trapeze and gladiator jousting. There's even a drive-in movie theatre at the end of the driving range. If you've got a boat you can dock right alongside this place. It's great for sunny days as there is a huge outdoor patio where you can sit and enjoy food and drinks along with all the entertainment. And at night the DJ's start spinning tunes and live music is here sometimes. There's always something going on here! Loads of concerts and events are also held here so check the website to see what's on.

    Well, don't dress in a mini-skirt if you plan on doing the rock climbing!

    Nightclubs and bars: Salsa Club
    If you love to dance Latin (salsa, bachata, etc.)check out this club. People who go there are great dancers (it's fun just to watch). But don't get discouraged! They offer free 1 hour lessons on certain nights. The club is quite small, and gets packed on friday and saturday nights. It can be quite a challenge to win the dance floor :) The drinks are a bit more expensive than most bars in TO. People who go are more interested in dancing anyway.

    Not that I know of.

    Nightclubs and bars: After 2
    Is it 2am and you still feel like partying? Try Boa located in a converted theatre in Chinatown. Although I haven't been there since Danny Teneglia rocked it for 12 straight hours last year I hear things haven't changed. This is by far my favourite after hours spot in TO. There are lots of chill out couches to hang on and for those who want to boogie there's an enormous 4 level dance floor playing progressive trance/house and a smaller room playing house.

    Anything goes.
