Jazz lounge

Rated this place:

It's not strictly jazz. But there is occasional jazz. And occasional jazz over a drink is 90% there. What is it about this place? I like the atmosphere, the patio, and the sip n learn tequila menu. Steer clear of their Manhattan, it's a grim affair - but if you grab a glass of something bracing and observe the contenders for best looking man in the bar, well sir, that's a fine evening. A fine evening indeed.

Tequila!

Rated this place:

It's always a little packed, so try to get there early if you want a seat.

They make their margaritas with fresh ingredients and awesome tequila - SO much better than those slushies you get at some other places.

The patio is so beautiful, too!

The Ultimate Tequila Lover

Rated this place:

Tequila is that liquor that is bitter sweet to all of us from that one horrible experience eons ago. This quaint narrow bar stocked with the finest tequilas of Mexico will definitely bring out the lover in you. I strongly suggest you try an aged tequila to appreciate the tequila; however if that's not for you their Margs are amazing! Carefully blended margaritas along with freshly squeezed lime juice makes their cocktails utterly delicious at any time of year. The best part of this hidden gem is their stunning courtyard at the back(seasonal) If you're new to the Ossington strip look out for this hotspot!

Relaxing bar vibe

Rated this place:

Reposado translates as relaxed or laid back, which is the perfect way to describe this fun bar in the middle of the Ossington strip. (Look for the sign with the drawing of the bat out front.) A pretty spot with exposed brick walls, a beautiful stained glass window and dim lighting, it’s a great place to go with a small group for margaritas … or premium tequilas if that is more your thing. They also offer beer and wine as well as some small plates of munchies to share. In addition, many nights they have live music, with pay-what-you-can cover. Check their website for details on who’s playing when.

Neighbourhood patio

Rated this place:

They have an excellent backyard patio that feels like someone's own backyard, and if you're lucky, you get to witness an excellent jazz singer too!
