This newest district in Toronto is well worth a visit. There are plenty of galleries, retail and craft shops along with casual dining options inside and along the alleyways. The former, refurbished distillery buildings are well preserved and add character of this art community. more

We enjoyed the historic distillery district from the comfort of a Segway -- a marvelous device and lots of fun. The tour was led by a young man very knowledgable about the colorful history of the district and we had a great time! more

The Distillery District is a great place if you need a little quiet time from a hectic vacation. Many of the art galleries are quite expensive. However, there is a little kitchen shop that has some very unique applicances and gadgets. more

The Distillery District is a very nice collection of old buildings. Unfortunately, it isn't very exciting. We went on a summer Saturday afternoon, and found most things to be closed.

We got a FABULOUS dinner at the Boiler Room (really good -- no TGIFridays or Cheesecake Factory fare -- true four-star cooking). It was expensive, but the best meal I had in Toronto. The shopping was minimal because many... more

Maybe it's because we were there when it wasn't summer, so it was kind of a dead place. Most of the shops are galleries and many didn't seem to be open. It's also out of the way from the main part of downtown so unless you're really into art and sculptures, I'd skip this place. more

Such a small area with plenty to do. Art Galleries, shopping and dinning are the main things to do. Open all year round. To see more about this district watch this three minute video at: [---------------] more
