Finding a great Toronto Happy Hour
The Toronto area is full of happy hour specials, ranging from small bites to full meals and everything in between. Not to mention, you can even get great drink deals on signature cocktails and house lagers well into the evening.
For us, we think a great happy hour looks like:
– Easily accessible to work or home
– Great drink and eats deals. Doesn’t have to be both, but both is better.
– Easy, relaxed environment. You’ve just gotten through a week of work. It’s time for a cheeky beer on a patio, not extra stress.
