Not a secret gem, but consistently good. Located in downtown Toronto, making it a reliable default for those already in the area.
Gerarrd Street East is a good place to find modest sarees in Toronto. The stores on Gerrard Street East have what you're looking for, and if you mention the blouse to them, they may have more fabric or other options for you as well.
The Only is a great beer spot and a friendly place to meet new people. It's located in a safe neighborhood with excellent Greek food in the area, and it's a short walk from Square Boy, where you can grab a homemade burger or chicken souvlaki on a bun.
The Childrens Dental Centre in Etobicoke is a good option for kids on the spectrum, a coworker with a special needs child says. It's not located in the north end, but it's a recommendation worth considering.
Qishr at Sankofa is a classy cafe with lovely offerings. It has a nice view, which makes it an ideal place to work and focus.
Truly and deeply a talent. I have only one tattoo and it's from them; it took me like two years of hunting for an artist I truly wanted, and as soon as I saw Jay's work, I knew it was meant to be. Located in Toronto, Hurt Comfort Tattoos is a great place to get a tattoo. With artists like Jay, you can expect to see truly impressive work.
Subtext specializes in light roasts and usually has several on offer that they brew to order. Very high quality coffee.
It's 100% you can trust Barb at Skin Worthy, located in Etobicoke. As a guesthouse owner in Toronto, I can appreciate the importance of finding reliable professionals for any treatment, and it seems that Skin Worthy has built a reputation for trustworthiness.
iTech Mobile on Spadina downtown will probably do them cheap. They replaced my 14pro battery fully for $60 a few months ago.
Don't miss the underground dance party in the parking lot at Nathan Phillips Square. It's not too busy and really good, with people spending up to 30 minutes dancing there. Just be prepared for a line to get in, but it reportedly dies down to under 30 minutes after a while.
Tom's Place in Kensington Market has great prices and nice stuff. It's a great destination for those looking for affordable and stylish clothing options in the downtown area.
A walk down Graffiti Alley is definitely worth it. Grab a coffee or tea and walk down the alley to see some really cool art.
Located just 30 seconds away from the ROM, L'espresso by Mercurio is a convenient option for a quick bite. While it's decent, you may want to consider walking a bit further to the Annex neighborhood for better options like Ahmetzade, a cute Turkish coffee/breakfast place, or Amal, which has a morning menu.
Get an unlimited style membership to book classes anytime at Sweat & Tonic, which offers many classes, including a dexa scan for the cheapest price in Toronto. Classes are available, but if you want access to a full gym as well, you may want to consider a different option.
Sneaky Dee's is a popular spot for dancing and having a good time, especially on Saturdays, which feature 2000s and 2010s pop throwbacks. It's a diverse crowd, and you're unlikely to get hit on, making it a great choice for someone looking to go out alone. Plus, drinks are reasonably priced, with tickets costing $5 if you buy them early in the week.
Menalon Bekery & Deli sells Greek groceries, making it a great import store. It's located on St Clair West, and as a bookshop owner, I appreciate the convenience of having a specialty store nearby.
Hilary Macmillan has a studio where you can do in-person shopping for plus-size clothing, carrying up to 4XL sizes. They are a Canadian brand, which might be an attractive option for those looking for locally-made clothing.
The team at Toronto Western Hospital is 'fantastic' and 'super helpful' in dealing with eye floaters and potential retinal detachment. They had a positive experience with the staff, who were 'lovely people' and helped their mother with an eye bleed that was a side effect of her diabetes.
