Starting point

NW corner of Yonge St. and Front St, Toronto

Start your tour with a local guide and a cup of locally roasted coffee, a staple that fueled the city’s early workforce.

Walk through Old Town’s original 19th-century streets, stopping for a peameal bacon sandwich (vegetarian option available) at the historic St. Lawrence Market.

As you visit the market and nearby streets, you’ll learn about the city’s growth from a muddy outpost to a busy city.

Your guide will share stories of outbreaks, immigration, and reformers who shaped Toronto’s neighbourhoods and its food.

Along the route, try a classic Canadian butter tart, with a few variations to choose from.

Hear about some of Toronto’s lesser-known history, such as the beginnings of Canada Dry ginger ale and its popularity during Prohibition.

The tour ends at a local pub, where you can buy a craft beer and relax.
