"Every neighborhood has a little street art, encompassing everything from graffiti to commissioned murals. Look around and you'll find examples hidden down forgotten streets in the Financial District, adorning brick walls in the Annex neighborhood and the east end, and covering entire facades in the Village, Kensington Market and the west end. The most popular – and perhaps the most photographed – location is Graffiti Alley, a collection of myriad artists' works that spans three blocks just off Queen St West."

Which means there’s pretty much always someone there to help you take photos!"

Guild Park & Gardens stretches across 80 acres and is a fantastical blend of history and nature."

"Distance from downtown: 14 minutes Radical Road fits right in with the cute shops and cafes on Queen Street East with an antique fridge in the bottle shop and a cozy pub feel, complete with Connect 4 and Battleship. This nano-brewery focuses on small-batch brews and lighter drinking options in the outpouring of stouts, porters, and IPAs that’s flooded the Toronto craft beer scene in recent years. Go on the brewery tour of this small but mighty facility for just $15, or become brewmaster for the day for $75.Best Brew: Cucumber Mint Kolsch."

"Radical Road runs counter to the warehouse-like feel of most indie breweries: with its low ceilings and framed portraits, it’s like a cozy neighbourhood pub (in short, it’s very Leslieville). You might know its fruity, crisp yuzu brew from its wider LCBO release, but while you’re here, grab something seasonal like the malty Wild Loyalist bitter (a special Canada Day release)."

"This Hong Kong street food classic has become one of the city’s latest craze—Golden Waffles. You can have it in original flavour or you can choose from one of the dazzling premium versions that include bubble waffles with mochi, stuffed with cheese, drizzled with caramel and/or topped with ice cream. Whatever you decide, you can’t go wrong."

"What makes them special: As one of the most popular coffee shops in Toronto, Boxcar is spread out to four different locations in the city. Their famous trademark is the furniture they build themselves while the shops have a specific industrial vibe to them. One of the best things about them is, of course, their coffee program oriented toward third-wave roasters outside of Toronto."

"There are few locations, but we have been to the one on Temperance. Located in the heart of the Financial District, you’ll be met by men and women in suits and fancy clothes – but don’t feel too out of place. Just get your coffee from the friendly staff and enjoy the good vibes."

Since then, Planta has found a happy home in cities all over North America, but Toronto is where you’ll find the flagship location. The chic, light-flooded locations across the city look nothing like what you’d expect from a vegan restaurant, and the food that follows is just as surprising."

"Planta Yorkville is a casual/upscale vegan dining experience. The restaurant is bright and beautiful, and the menu has a variety of small and large plates. The small plates are perfect for sharing: cauliflower tots, bang bang broccoli, and fully loaded nachos."
