About this home

Your next location in the heart of Koreatown. This turnkey retail unit sits on the high-traffic Bloor St W corridor at Bathurst, right next to a newly built condominium whose residents add to the steady flow of students, locals and visitors. Steps to Bathurst Station and minutes from the University of Toronto. The space is fully built out for food and beverage: a working commercial kitchen, bar/service counter, exposed brick, and a large street-facing display window that puts your brand in front of passing foot traffic. Currently licensed for liquor sales. An efficient footprint keeps rent and operating costs in check while supporting a café, restaurant, bar, dessert or takeout concept. Skip the build-out cost and open sooner in one of downtown Toronto's most recognizable dining destinations.
