Lakeshore patio game gets a mean addition with this outdoor-only watering hole attached to the Harbourfront Centre. There’s plenty of communal seating (picnic-table style) at 2016-newcomer The Slip, which boasts a stellar view out to Lake Ontario. Good for a bucket o’ beers or some specialty cocktails, it’s a great stop in for a day drink, weekday happy hour, or rowdy night with pals.
This outdoor watering hole at the Harbourfront Centre is the brainchild of the boys behind the Boxcar Social. The Slip is purely patio (no interior), with gazebo-style seating and rounded communal picnic tables lit by strings of warm Emerson lights. You’ll find a small selection of draft beer, made-in-house blood orange and grapefruit radlers, buckets of Corona, margaritas, and rotating specialty cocktails. Seating 250 with additional standing room, it’s the ideal stop-in after a Lakeshore stroll or when you’re with a larger group, but hot tip: it’s generally only open ‘til 10 pm during the week.
