Sony Music Canada • May 31, 2011Dance Cave: cheap drinks, good music (think FTP), huge dancefloor, and even a foosball table! If you're a student, flash your valid student ID and get in for free! Great place to dance your socks off.

Kiki v. • March 30, 2010Great music all the time, but Elvis Monday is my favourite night of the week!

Craig E. • November 28, 2010Great place for jamming with randoms. The price of a room is worth the experience.

ExPlaceTO • September 11, 2015Modeled after the Hollywood Bowl, the Bandshell was built in 1936 at a cost of $47,000. It is still known for it's acoustic excellence. Many great bands have graced the bandshell stage!

Irwin L. • August 16, 2014Love the vegetarian brunch in weekends 12-3. We got the breakfast burritos and potato cakes. Both were delicious. And the organic watermelon and mint drink is refreshing

Anu J. • May 16, 2015Great shows and live performances all the time!

Dan B. • August 9, 2014A classic hall on Spadina, and it's small enough for a real intimate show. Real nasty floors though so wear closed toed shoes.

Dre L. • March 1, 2013bring beer

deekay • August 7, 2016Great upstairs patio. Don't eat here though, drinks only. The live bands are awesome and bowling is fun.

Wes D. • September 21, 2010Try the Geary location instead.
