Great for a classic breakfast. It doesn't have a fancy aesthetic or anything, but the food is good. 1 downside is they don't give refills on coffee.

Great spot for drinks & food.
Its kinda like a fancy food courts, so its a great spot to go if the person/people you're going with all like different types of food.
Our favourite there is the Burgers & Parm Truffle Fries from "Resto Boemo".
A bit on the pricey side but it has a nice atmosphere and lots of seating. Check hours before you go, its closed on Sunday. They also only accept debit or credit, no cash.

Great brunch! A bit pricey, but the food is good. There's always a line at this place and they don't take reservations, so definitely go before 10am if you can, and be ready to wait outside in the cold if you go after 10am (even if you go before sometimes). Their side waffle is V yummy!

Great Spot
Allan Gardens is a great little conservatory located right in the Garden District. Just an 11 minute walk from the apartment.
Its free to get in and a great spot to visit if you want to escape the cold and take a break from the city to enjoy some nature.

Neighbourhoods
Kensington Market is a great spot if you like vintage shops and local grocery stores.
You can spend a full afternoon walking from shop-to-shop. Its definitely a bit more of a grungy spot so if you're looking for something high-scale then I wouldn't suggest Kensington.
Favourite Coffee Shop in Kensington:
Café Pamenar
FIKA Cafe
Favourite Shop:
Kid Icarus (lots of greeting cards, and a great spot to buy a Toronto souvenir)
There's lots of vintage shops on every street

If you love boardgames, Snakes and Lattes is your spot.
You pay a fee to sit and play as many boardgames as you want. I haven't been in years (not a huge boardgame person) so you'll have to check their website for more details.

Though we've only been to one improv show at Second City, we really enjoyed it! The world's premier comedy club, comedy theater, and school of improvisation. Live shows almost every night.
You can purchase drinks & food at the show. We suggest purchasing tickets in advance.

Both higher-end/more affordable options.
11 Minute walk.
Rabba Fine Foods is a great spot to go if you want to pick up your basic groceries. The produce and meat isn't the freshest, so if you're looking for fresh produce I would suggest going to a spot more local or going to Loblaws (which is a bit further away)

Loblaws is a grocery store that will literally have everything you need. With a great produce, meat, cheese, and pastry section its an amazing spot to go for all of your grocery needs. It is a higher price point, so if you want to do a lot of grocery shopping with a more affordable price point, we would suggest FreshCo.
They also have an LCBO and Jo Fresh located in the upper part of the store. & there's a Bulk Barn and Winners located not far from it as well.
You can park underground there and its free if you spend $40 or more.
