An East-End Toronto Lounge with a Victorian-Goth Bordello-Chic Design

We offer:

- a vast selection of Craft Beer on Tap and in Bottle

- an array of 1920's inspired cocktail offerings

- Top shelf Tequilas, Bourbons, Scotches & Vodkas

- music, music, music... you never know who you'll hear


The craft beer sounds promising. Not sure about the "Victorian-Goth Bordello-Chic" - whatever that is.

Says it's opening in August near Greenwood station.

Interesting. I did a placement in that area back in Teacher's College, and seems like an odd place for bar like this (though, it may have changed in 8 years)

It's picking up. Morgan's opened recently and of course The Only is nearby. And Red Rocket (coffee) moved up from Queen E.

It's across the street from the defunct Ten Feet Tall.

if i were opening up a bar/restaurant in Toronto and was looking at 10 year growth, then East Danforth would be high on my list. i think that will be a big area in 5-10 years. especially if they decide to build a relief TTC subway line at Pape.

oh, and that bar concept is laughable in so many ways. it looks like a train wreck waiting to happen. pasta-eating goths?

I am going to slit my wrists, that is how goth that pasta makes me feel.

Anyone been yet?

My wife and I are looking for somewhere to go before seeing a show Saturday night. She was intrigued by the description of Victorian-Goth Bordello-Chic. Just wondering before we head over there if anyone has checked it out in person.

I popped in around 5:00 one afternoon. The place looks spiffy. The lady behind the bar was friendly.

The draft list is on the timid side of craft but I was able to get a good pint of Boneshaker. There appeared to be a good selection of bottles and cans in the fridge. I can't vouch for food.
