"Dundas West has become THE neighbourhood to go for brunch in Toronto. Not far from Trinity Bellwoods Park, there are a number of fantastic brunch spots, so if the line is too long at one spot, you’re close to another great place. ALSO READ: Best Parks in Toronto"

"This friendly neighbourhood diner has all the essentials of a diner to meet your breakfast and brunch needs. What’s most important is their famous ice-cream sandwiches. These sandwiches are made with Greg’s or Kawartha’s Dairy ice cream, sat pretty between two halves of their famous doughnuts."

"Known for their crispy hash browns, house-baked bread, and even smoking their own bacon, White Lily Diner doesn’t mess around. Using only fresh, locally-sourced ingredients in each dish — it’s no wonder people go crazy for this place. When: Monday to Tuesday closed; Wednesday to Friday, 8 am to 10 pm; Saturday to Sunday, 9 am to 10 pmWhere: 678 Queen Street East, Toronto"

"Residents of the Riverside community have gotten deservedly smug about this 30-seat restaurant that serves ideal versions of all-day diner food. Massive sandwiches and billowy pancakes are grub done not just right, but exquisitely. Bread, pickles, pastrami, and donuts are all made entirely in-house."

"Lily Garden Chinese Restaurant welcomes parties and banquets, including: Birthdays, Family Gathering,Parties for all occasions. Chinese Food Restaurants, Asian Restaurants"

"East-side luncheonette with an Irish heart (and a killer soda bread recipe), reopened 2008. Ash Farrelly, owner: I am what you would call a professional waitress. I was born into this business – three generations, both sides of my family, owned pubs or small hotels throughout Ireland."

"The George Street Diner, Toronto|Courtesy of Fran's Restaurant. Diners are always great places to get your food fix and The George Street Diner is no exception. Located on the corner of Richmond and George, the diner is a cozy, yet upbeat stop."

"This place has such a classic look, it’s actually been used as a filming location. Come relax in a star-studded red booth and enjoy some comfort food to comfort you in your comparable lack of fame. Where: 129 George St"

"The Swan, one of Toronto’s most famous diners, occupied the same space on Queen Street West for more than 20 years. Now Le Swan has taken over to serve French bistro food alongside diner classics - think charcuterie followed by a tuna melt and steak frites with a side of grilled cheese. The menu here includes both dishes that you’d find in a Grey Poupon commercial and food that feels sort of like time travel, which makes it a little different than just about anywhere else in the city."

"Everyone’s curious about the new incarnation of Swan on West Queen West which is Jen Agg’s latest project, a so-called French diner that does rotisserie chicken and late night fondue."

"A post shared by Golden Griddle (@goldengriddle) on Dec 19, 2015 at 8:57am PST. Satisfy nostalgic cravings for unlimited eggs, bacon, pancakes, and more at this buffet served weekends from 8 am to 2 pm. Address: 45 Carlton Street, TorontoPhone: 416-977-5044"

"The boisterous spot is decked out with neon lights, a full row of pinball machines and an impressive selection of Ontario beers on draft. Try the Single Farm IPA from Ottawa’s Dominion Brewing, made with Quebec’s Houblonnière Lupuline hops; or maybe a crisp Belgian-style ale from Beamsville’s Bench Brewing Company. Whatever you choose, wash it down with a slice from Brooklyn Pizza, a thin-crust pizza joint that takes over the back corner of the bar."

"From the old-school arcade games and vintage decor to the big selection of craft beer on tap, Get Well is somewhere you can spend more than a few hours. Especially since once you get hungry, they have an in-house pizzeria with slices and full pies, depending on how hungry you are or how many people you dragged along. So when you get run over in Frogger, at least you can blame it on your greasy hands."

"This bar on Dundas West pours an impressive list of craft beers on tap along with fancier bottled options that you won’t find everywhere else. With a North of Brooklyn Pizzeria in the bar – along with a decent selection of vintage arcade games– you can happily set up shop for the whole night."

"Miku pioneered aburi-style sushi in Canada — which, for the uninitiated, translates to 'flame-seared'. In practice, this means the fish is cooked over fire to create new textures and enhance flavour, searing it over binchotan (Japanese bamboo charcoal). The restaurant also has a signature secret sauce, known only by a handful of its chefs."

"Miku’s Mother’s Day feature for two includes a pan-seared Roast Beef, as well as its signature Aburi Sushi. And for dessert a delicous Matcha Yuzu Eclair. It is now available for pre-order for pick-up May 7 to 9."

"This park offers you the prettiest view of Toronto’s waterfront. Tourists can choose to visit this place at any season; be it lying on the grass in summers or skating on the outdoor ice rink in the chilled winters, you will never lack options in this natural habitat. The ice rink/splash pad was named in honor of the successful Toronto author named Paul Quarrington in 2014."

"For a view of Toronto’s pretty waterfront, head to Sherbourne Common in the Harbourfront neighborhood. Not far from the busy Queens Quay area, this is an ideal destination during all seasons. Throughout the summer, set yourself up on the grass and get tanning."

"Roundhouse Park is right by the touristy CN Tower and Ripley’s Aquarium, but don’t let that steer you away from exploring it."

"Another little jewel of a park in Toronto is St. James Park. This hidden gem is sandwiched between towering buildings and the St. James Church you’ll find this lovely little sanctuary of green. Part of the park is set like an English garden park with a series of formal gardens, crisscrossing pathways, a gazebo, and a charming fountain."
