Sorry We’re Open: Vibin’ with The Richmond on Richmond
The Richmond by Mortalis Brewing has been a local gem in the East End for years.

The Old Toad, Still Bringing The Authentic English Pub Experience to the East End
The Old Toad features a robust menu, the fish and chips with a side of mushy peas are a must-try, but so is the creamy, savory, and perfectly tender Chicken Korma, which also comes in a vegan option.

A more adventurous eater who enjoys authentic and affordable Chinese cuisine will leave this artsy cafe-style restaurant thrilled and satiated.
