Drinks & Nightlife

I love this place so hate to call it a dive, also, it's too friendly and upbeat to be called a dive. Cheapest pitchers of local craft brew (I've seen) in the city on Monday and Wednesday nights ($10). Back patio open in the summer until 11pm.

A popular midway in the early 20th century, the rides are all gone now but the beach and cafe remains. Few people swim here but the beach has volleyball courts, and a beautiful view of Lake Ontario. A bar/cafe and public washrooms are on site.
