350 Drummond StreetDrinks and food, various spaces depending on your mood, very close.
A classic local icon with a wine bar at the front, Italian restaurant, courtyard eating/drinking, the Wolf's Lair (cool little bar out the back) and a rooftop bar. I love the Wolf's Lair for mulled wine and a crispy pizza in winter.
