CSB

came here on a friday night for someones birthday. it was also a halloween themed night because it was oct 30^th! shout out to the guy in the mr. incredible costume that dragged me to the dancefloor against my will. i mean is it really a complete halloween weekend unless u get kidnapped by someone in costume???
i didnt get any food and tbh didnt even think they offered any lmao. anyways I LOVE THIS PLACE. even though we came at 11 there was still a few tables empty to sit at-​a few stools at the bar as well. the crowd was really lively and there was a small dancefloor that formed at the back of the bar near the dj booth. the dj that night was so good! it was hard to stop dancing-​played a good mix of hip hop and top 40. it emptied out pretty fast when it came closer to last call but we didnt care we were having our own fun.
the drinks were a tad pricey for a bar on college but overall i liked it here.

A nice small bar with a great atmosphere.
I didn’t have the chance to grab any food, but I did try their signature «College Street Car» cocktail. (Ingredients: rum, cointreau, cinnamon, lemon juice, and egg whites!) The drink is served with toasted cinnamon on top and the extra egg white-​lemon juice mixture on the side. It’s not out of this world or anything, but it is nice to sip on, plus any preparation that involves fire is A+ in my book.
Great service,
Pretty good DJ,
Cool space.

Went there for Mothers Day Brunch. Chef Lucas worked his magic once again. I was there with family and extended family and we ordered some of everything on the Moms Day fixed menu and shared it. OMG, Absolutely yummy: blueberry waffles and bacon, Croque Madam, and egg white frittata Florentine (sp???). I sure hope they duplicate thIs on Fathers Day. BTW, best béchamel sauce EVER!

Haven’t been to College Street Bar for eons but went there last night for some after work bevvies. The added bonus was some really cool live music. Menu was really different but accessible. Asked for one of their signature cocktails. It was blueberry and it was phenomenal! Liked the vibe so much we’re going to go back on Saturday night to watch the Fight!

Best Bar Ever! I go to CSB any chance I get! Best service I’ve ever had in my life :) The food is to die for. Fried chicken is more then finger licking good! The grilled cheese OH MY GAWD better them my mother’s when I was a kid! And the cocktails. I cant even find the words to explain how amazing they are! At first I didn’t know what to choose, then Mike (bartender) asked me a few questions and he created multiple cocktails throughout the night all of them different and delightful! The atmosphere is beautiful and the music is always on point best djs on the weekends that I’ve ever heard and Sundays band bring the house down! I can’t wait to go back! Actually I think I’ll be there this Sunday! ! YEA!

I’ve been here probably 12 times and I’ve always had fun, I just wanted to give a shout out for this place on their new page. Ryan, behind the bar told me that their new seasonal menu is coming out soon so I’m buzzed for that. The Poutine is still my favourite food item. As for my favourite drink, I usually just let Ryan or Mike (bartenders) make me something that they think that I will like.
5 stars isn’t enough for this place. I’d give ¹⁰⁄₅

Oh god, don’t even know where to start. Me and two friends happened upon this place for a few drinks. The owner was there drunk and going on about his ‘mixologists’. We were shocked at how unhygienic the bartender was. Long scraggly beard with hairs falling out of it into the drinks and garnishes. Not to mention he kept pulling on it and touching it while making our drinks. Gross! Also, the owner was drunk and inappropriate with my male guest. Both owner and bartender were super rude; drinks needed ice cubes (which we were told we couldn’t have any) and the appetizer we had tasted like it was sitting under a heat lamp for two hours. Avoid this place like the plague!!! (Probably won’t be a problem as I predict it will be closed within a couple months)

Excellent food with an amazing menu! We ordered a variety of things from the menu and loved everything, especially the fried chicken. Told the bartender to surprise me with a cool cocktail and I ended up having 4 of them! Great vibe, great staff, great location! Would come back again!

Congratulations on being deemed my least favourite bar in Toronto! Where do I start? The boring, unoriginal, and downright unappealing sounding cocktail list? Th truly disgusting wine selection? Oh I know– the atmosphere that suggests the hard rock café of bars. Almost seemed like a tourist trap but with nothing that would trap tourists– if that makes any sense? Rarely does a restaurant or bar actually make me angry, but college street bar managed it! Everything about it pissed me off– from the corona holding 30 something year olds in skinny jeans, to the stupid bathroom stall ads, to the service, and most importantly the food and drink selection. In a city with as many options as Toronto the fact that a try hard, awkward, and obnoxious place like this survives is nothing short of a miracle! Simply put– it is a watering hole for those without taste.
