Riverside & Leslieville Food and Walking Experience

Get ready to experience a mix of local flavours, sweet and savoury bites, and an optional tasting of locally brewed craft beer. Every stop on this tour is a true neighbourhood favourite. You’ll visit four unique local food outlets, taste dishes crafted with care, and hear the stories behind the food.

Your adventure begins in Riverside, one of Toronto’s oldest communities, where heritage buildings, the Queen Street bridge, and a vibrant food scene set the stage.

From there, you’ll wander into Leslieville, a laid-back district once defined by factories, now beloved for its tree-lined streets, indie cafés, and some of the city’s best eateries.

And to top it off, you have the chance to sip one of the area’s famous local brewery beers.

Beyond the great  food, you’ll discover heritage buildings, leafy side streets, and the kind of local hot-spots you won’t find in any guidebook. So, if you are hungry for bold flavours and curious to explore Toronto’s hidden gems, the Riverside and Leslieville Food and Walking Experience serves up the ideal mix of tastings, stories, and local discoveries.
