For Cabbagetown Foodies

Bakeries, coffee shops, delis, restaurants, pubs, groceries, and seasonal market (May-Oct) in Riverdale Park W.
It's the best upscale pub in Cabbagetown with terrific food and a great selection of beer and wine. Lovely patio on the roof. Never had anything bad here, I love their spinach salad, and the fish and chips served with the freshest fries in the 'hood. Very busy for dinner hour, go early if you can. -Victoria

They have the best gourmet takeout in the 'hood along with opening early for the yummiest croissants/pain chocolat and French baguettes in TO. They catered for the Queen when she was alive so we know the food is fit for royalty! There is also an art gallery connected to the shop. ~Victoria

Some folks say this is the best coffee around. Keep it simple and order a latte. They attract the bicycle pros and usually have an interesting art show. Cooler than Starbucks. ~Victoria

A free horticultural centre within a short walking distance that is open every day and provides seasonal flower shows. There are homeless folks camped in the park so I advise not to visit after dark. ~Victoria
