Toronto Dive Bars
Toronto, ON - JayEastsider - Thursday, September 15th, 2005 : goo
Browsing articles by JayEastsider - [previous] :: [next]
Like many other major cities in the world they have what I like to call dive bars which I rather enjoy more so then stuck up night clubs or over priced restaurant/lounges. Usually you will find many a good soul in these places filled with broken dreams and lost loves. These are two pictures of my new project Toronto dive bars. To note most of these places pose as legit restaurants but you will be hard pressed to find any food there but the beer is usually cheap but most often there are many fights.
The Buffalo 2 I am still looking for Buffalo 1 the bar is somewhere on Queen East 
The Maple Leaf Tavern on Gerrard East. Karoake every Friday with Kim

The Maple Leaf Tavern is terrific. I've been going there for years, and my friend Nick and I had an amazing art/circus/music event there.
Chris the bartender is the best.

The Maple Leaf is perfection. All establishments should be this incredible. Awesome people + great prices + fun karaoke + crack laced joints = One of the best nights you'll spend in boring Toronto

Try the Ulster Arms on errard St E between Coxwell and Greenwood, and you will understand the true meaning of 'Dive Bar'
Madcow: 24th May 2007 - 22:21 GMT
Another one: it's called Crossroads and its at Coxwell + Daforth. Real dive. Real dive. Feels like drinking in a prison or mental assylum.

how 'bout the Noah's Arc Tavern at Danforth/Main? Get yer Newfies by the dozen...always a fight or 2, generally good natured folk, heavy funk O beer and something in there...nice on a date.
