Bloorcourt

Comfortable and unpretentious, Civil Liberties is a great place for cocktails that insists it’s not a cocktail bar: There isn’t a cocktail menu, so you have to rely on your bartender to listen to what you like and create something you’ll enjoy on the spot. There are some snacking options, but if you’re hungry, opt for what they call a Toasty, which is actually just a really good grilled cheese.
