Yorkville used to be my favourite area in the City, but it has now become just an overpriced and pretentious area, lacking any real charm. The stores are the same as you would find in any other snooty area of the world and there are no good restaurants or cafes. Fortunately, Toronto now has The Distillery, which is what Yorkville...

In the 60's, the Hippies ruled this street. Today, it's home to high end shop and restaurants. A few small Art galleries in the area to visit

If you want to see celebrities, especially during the TIFF, this is the place to be. However, on regular days in the evenings and weekends, this place is a must if you want to see vintage cars and sports cars roaming around the narrow streets. Excellent restaurants in the area as well, frequented by celebrities.

I have been going to Yorkville since the late 60's when they had all the great bars with live music. During this time, one could have a great time without spending a ton of money.

I love love love this place!!! you have everything from restaurants to shopping boutiques. And everything there are so lovely... must go to sassafraz... great experience for dinner or after dinner drinks...

Hemmingways is good for a pint. Babaluu's is great (after 11pm) for salsa dancing, even if just to watch. Pop into "One" restaurant just to... More

It's a real cheap shot when you have an already expensive place do something petty like change the underground parking policy. It's one thing to over charge when you want premium goods...I'm happy to comply and this Whole Foods does have a lot of nice stuff. The cheese, the meats, the seafood. It's another when they try and gouge you... More
