Re: Booze in Toronto Parks - 2023 Pilot Program
I don't understand the restriction on specific parks, but I'll take it. Are they going to add signs of a booze here to these parks?

Re: LCBO Hack...
If you've used the LCBO website to place an order you may want to contact your credit card company (or at least take a good look at your bill!)…

I've had quite a few -- the only one I really liked (and I LOVED it) was Rogue's Hazelnut Brown Nectar. All others varied from meh to bad...

Re: Do you ask for a ‘pint’ anymore?
Speaking of cash… I was in London, UK two weeks ago… nearly every pub I went to was cashless / card only… I spent a week in London and never handled the local currency! But they were serving full pints!

Re: Great Lakes Brewpub (Queen's Quay / Jarvis)
I don't trust 3rd parties like google or Facebook … but businesses have no excuse for not posting on their website. If their hours of business are there they open they should post exceptions.
