06 Mar A “must” patio to visit – The Drake Hotel “Sky Yard”

So much to say about this place… one of the best patios in Toronto! The Drake Hotel’s “Sky Yard” ($$$) located at 1150 Queen Street West.

This is a great place just to hang out while sipping a cold drink with your friends on cute couches or picnic tables. Weekends are busy and music is loud. Whether you’re enjoying late dinner on a breezy summer night or sipping a cozy cocktail in the middle of winter, our celebrated rooftop patio is a must-visit in Toronto. Head upstairs to stargaze, indulge in a meal with friends and spend some quality time in the open air. The Sky Yard is an ever-changing, climate-defiant, all-season space complete with its own satellite cocktail bar.

“Simply put: One of the best rooftop patios in the city hands-down… with some of the best (and most dangerous) cocktails you’ll ever slurp.” – View the Vibe
“This West Queen West patio pairs twisting, tubular, light-up artwork (by artist Jason Peters) with good food, drinks and boho and artsy vibes.” – BlogTO in The Best Rooftop Patios in Toronto.

Staff is friendly and prompt. The food is a bit pricy, however public says it’s very good. The menu changes regularly, but looks like burger is a constant, is really tasty and doesn’t disappoint. Let’ try it out with one or two of their extent list of cocktails, beer or wine. You have many options here.

Sunlight or starlight, our rooftop Sky Yard patio is an incredible setting for almost any celebration. From large party birthday brunches to Sunday afternoon dance parties, it’s one of the most lively and popular spaces. It also gets bonus points for a view of the city, big comfy benches and the style is insta good, so get the cameras ready!

Hours: Wed – Thurs: 7PM to 12AM
Fri – Sat: 6PM to 2AM

Next patio I will recommend to you is… Cactus Club Café Deck.

Until next time!
