Presenting the 50 Best Bars in Canada 2018
For most diners, the true marker of a great evening is an excellent meal. But for others, the experience of going out is made during the more intimate, before-and-after moments of dinner, which are often spent on bar stools or at dimly lit tables enjoying a drink. This book is for the latter camp.
At Canada’s 100 Best, our idea of a great bar starts with an atmospheric setting and an exceptional beverage program. We think excellent cocktails are just like the best food: they should respect the past but do more than simply repeat it. And we
think that any good bartender should be able to pull off that trick with a non-alcoholic mix, too
