Garden rooftop patio/lunch spot

Rated this place:

401 Richmond

Until today I didn't know of anywhere pleasant I could bring my homemade lunch to eat! This sprawling rooftop garden is a true paradise in the midst of the urban jungle. Take the elevator (or the stairs) to the fourth floor, step outside and find yourself a bench to sit and relax on as you eat your lunch. Bring a friend, they'll thank you for it (thanks friend)!

Artsy building to explore, Lush lunchtime escape

Rated this place:

401 Richmond

I wanted to show off the fancy rooftop patio to my friend and we ended up walking all around the building on EACH FLOOR marvelling at the artwork on the walls and the variety of businesses that are based there. Sure, we looked pretty sketchy (like we're casing the joint), but who cares? You get to see photographic essays and paper -mâché wolf masks and discover offices that house cool film festivals (like ImagineNATIVE and Reel Asian) and magazines (like THIS and C Magazine).

Take a seat on the wooden benches or the small metal tables-for-two on the rooftop patio and chat with a friend over lunch. Lots of hanging potted ferns and colourful flowers to catch the eye, and if you finish eating early you can always feed the little birds your leftover crumbs.

Rooftop garden

Rated this place:

It's a bona fide urban oasis. a great place to escape the sea of concrete below and make friends with a plant or two instead. or some other friendly lunchers. chill. eat. pet the resident dog. breathe deeper. leave fortified.

Office building

Rated this place:

Go check it out, seriously. Nothing but art galleries and artsy businesses, giant plants in the hallways and stairwells, huge central courtyard with toys ....
