Black Bull Hotel And Tavern, Toronto

While it still serves as a rooming house and lays claim to being the oldest hotel in Toronto (founded in 1833), this establishment in the trendy Queen Street West area is best known today for its ground-floor tavern and gigantic 180-seat summertime patio. You'll find leather-clad bikers sipping beer next to tourists and the local business crowd taking a lunchtime break. The food, though simple, American-pub style with lots of burgers, chicken wings and steaks, is well-done with large portions and won't empty your wallet.
