THE PATIO
“The people and energy are half the experience.”
Patio season is Toronto's real civic holiday: the first warm day, every patio in the city fills up and stays full until October. Patio travelers want the Toronto everyone talks about, and they want it with people. No spreadsheet required: the plan is whoever's around and wherever's good.
How to travel: Stay somewhere central and well connected, keep the evenings open, and let the famous neighbourhoods do the work. Your trip is measured in stories, not stops.
