Love this spot! Usually really busy during game nights and weekends so you might not get a table for a while...

Oh. My. Goodness. I've eaten here in the past, but I wasn't all that wowed, so it's been a while since I last visited. And I don't know if the chef, kitchen staff, or management changed, but I'm floored by how much this place has skyrocketed. Not the best place in Toronto, but miles beyond what it once was, and certainly a new favourite. What has always stood out to me in the past is the Local's unique, warehouse-turned-restaurant and trendy-meets-rustic atmosphere. I've seen it tried a million times and a million ways, bu... read more

My wife and I came here tonight (July '17). We're expecting our first wee one any moment now, and we couldn't have had one of our last patio dinners at a better place. The first time we dined here (2015) we dined in the downstairs dining area - inside. Tonight we were on the rooftop patio and it was just epic. Let's just say, I thought the dining room was really freaking cool and the rooftop patio is just way above. The seating area is slightly cramped but when you have fabulous food, awesome furniture/decor, friendly staff ... read more

Come here often for beers. Living right down the street from this place definitely has its ups. Local has a really good selection of rotating craft beers, it keeps things interesting. Their drinks in general are pretty decent. On Friday nights when the patio is opened it gets really busy and quite fun when in a group of people. When it comes to the menu, unfortunately I'm not a fan. It seems to be a bit on the short side and not the greatest. My Go-tos here are either the pierogis or the wings. This place is more of a social... read more

We were in Toronto for a concert, we parked at the Budweiser stage parking and walked here. It was a Sunday afternoon and this place was hoppin. We walked in and thought there would be a wait, they just didn't have any seating outside but we got sat right away inside. Our waitress came right over and brought us water and gave us a few minutes to decide on drinks. I ordered a mimosa and my friend got the beer on special. We ordered the chips and salsa for an appetizer which were pretty good. The salsa had a good flavor. We bo... read more

What caught my eye was their rooftop balcony, hence I made it an objective to see what this place was all about. The Local is a "local" trendy bar that has a great selection of food and beer. The atmosphere is bustling, dim, spacious and friendly. Their drink menu is extensive, featuring local breweries and some main-stream labels. They've got their $5 glass of mystery wine RED or WHITE..... For food we kept it very light. Edamame: quite a good portion sprinkled with salt over it. Not bad Chips and guacamole: made in ... read more
