Scotland Yard Pub has been an independently owned staple, literally, in the heart of downtown Toronto on The Esplanade since 1978. Nestled in the historic St. Lawrence Market neighborhood of Old Town Toronto, this has become known as a friendly, casual meeting spot for locals and visitors alike. It has managed to keep its charm and authenticity intact for more than 45 years, making it an institution in this community.
With a variety of draft beers, Scotland Yard Pub has something to fit everyone's tastes, from a well-framed selection of international favorites to the best local brews. Along with beer options comes a strong mixology function by expert bartenders at the pub, preparing a wide range of cocktails with sophistication in a laid-back atmosphere. Indeed, the atmosphere is comfortable and apt to suit everything from a quiet lunch meeting to a loud night out with friends or even a private function.
The pub is at 56 The Esplanade, conveniently situated just a short walk from Union Station and iconic Toronto landmarks such as the Scotiabank Arena, Meridian Hall, the Hockey Hall of Fame, and the St. Lawrence Market. Located in the hub of the city, Scotland Yard Pub is popular with locals who reside within the city limits, as well as tourists looking for a more native-like experience. Most of the major attractions are within walking distance, making this a hot spot that always seems to welcome its guests with open arms.
Scotland Yard Pub is also Toronto's leading destination for football fans; it proudly calls itself the home of the Toronto Spurs, which is the official supporter's club of Tottenham Hotspur FC. This pub offers an unprecedented view for aficionados of the beautiful game by airing matches from top leagues such as the English Premier League and UEFA Champions League on no less than eleven big-screen TVs. From kickoffs in the morning to those at night, serious fans show up here to share the thrill, thus establishing a community of sorts.
In addition to being rated as one of the best sports-watching spots, Scotland Yard Pub is a haven for soccer enthusiasts. It's a place for hard-core followers and casual viewers alike to enjoy the game in a very accommodating environment. The recurring events held for the regulars, such as Tottenham Hotspur matches and other important ones, help organize an audience with great loyalty. This makes the pub a very buzzing place during the days when these activities are happening. We invite our guests to be a part of the fun and to share a pint in such a lively community of people who get together and celebrate soccer with utter passion.
The Scotland Yard Pub is much more than just a spot for drinks; it's a sort of institution among the locals, bringing to life a taste of the spirit of Toronto. From warm hospitality to great drinks to a steady stream of sports action, each visit makes for an invitation to memories that last and creates a bit of magic—a part of the rich pub culture here in the city.
