City advice
Getting around
Biking🚴♀️
We always recommend that visitors look into biking if they are planning on doing wine/beer tasting/hopping. Not only is it the safest, most responsible route, it’s a lot fun.
Getting around
Uber or WE DRIVE
Uber is a great way to get around here if you do not wish to drive, and WE DRIVE is a designated driving service where they will bring both you and your vehicle home!
Customs and culture
Restaurant Tipping!
Here in Ontario we tip servers on average 15%-18%. They do make below minimum wage so servers rely on these tips :)
Ways to save
Parking in Old Town
All of the parking just around and on Queen Street is metered parking. Nonetheless if you park a little further away (such as Johnston St) you do not need to pay.
Book before you go
Restaurant / Winery Booking
I would highly recommend calling ahead if you know where you wish to go. Due to COVID many places are taking reservations and it is now difficult to just walk in with lower capacities.
