    I have been a fan of this bar since before I even tried it. For years, tbh. It was always somewhere I considered to have one of the most unique and underrated bar programs in the city with such attention, creativity, and sophistication of ingredients. I am just so glad it completely lived up to my extremely high expectations. 🙌 Not only is their menu artful in its visual element, the drinks are creative and tasteful without seeming gimmicky or over the top, like the trap so many craft cocktail bars fall into. And further, for such a place, sometimes I expect the staff to be snobbish. (It happens often.) But here? They were so patient and helpful. To be honest, it was like I was visiting an old friend's bar -- and I don't even know these folks. Just really legit positivity for their craft, their business, and their customers. My friends and I had such a good time. Plus... the cocktails were absolutely superb! They were balanced impeccably, and when they list the ingredients, you can taste all of them. A hard and rare feat to actually accomplish. And the little taste guides in the menu are accurate! The complexity of the ones I choose was exactly what I was hoping for. My only regret is that I had an appointment I couldn't be late for because I would have loved to stay all night and try each and every one. It's baffling to me that they don't appear on more of Toronto's Best Of lists because they certainly deserve the recognition. This cocktail bar is something special. 💎

    Love the rotating menu of always creative and well balanced house cocktails. There is always something for everyone on the menu, including low/no abv options. We’ve always had a great service experience, no matter who is working! Hot Tip - Check out happy hour Sunday’s!

    Excellent place with great and welcoming service, a cosy vibe that felt great during the nighttime with the cool/rainy breeze blowing into the bar. Great cocktails with really delicious snacks (we enjoyed olives with chips). Definitely recommend and would come again.

    Favourite cocktail bar in Toronto! The cocktails here are as inventive as they are tasty. Lots of creative ingredients that you won't see elsewhere. Staff is passionate and friendly, and can always help you choose something you'd enjoy. The snacks are all great as well. Highly recommend dropping by for a drink or three!

    Fantastic spot. Intimate, minimalistic and cozy. The drinks' names are fun. The sort of place where you can pick a drink purely by its name instead of its ingredients. Also, special shoutout to the staff who were more than kind and welcoming to our group. A strong recommend for anyone in the area!

    Super cute cocktail bar! Everything I tried here is very tasty. They offer happy hour (3-7pm Wed- Sat All day Sun). Ryan also host private cocktail class. Highly recommended!

    This place is incredible. From the initial moment you enter this place, you suddenly feel the urge to be different. You suddenly gained a beard with a fancy mustache. Your clothes are suddenly thrifty as if you just finished shopping at Value Village. You are now a certified hipster. Just kidding. Choosing your drink is a very fun experience. Even if you're not sure what to get, go with the name that interests you the most. The place is very relaxed and the staff are wonderful. I will definitely keep coming back!

    Great cocktails and whiskey selection. They have hard-to-find whiskies at very good prices and there's always a very rare break-even bottle that they sell at cost price. Service is very friendly and the vibe is great.

    Terrific cocktails and cool staff who are willing to make off-menu recipes. We started our night a few bars down the street and ended at Grey Tiger and we ended up wishing we started at Grey Tiger cause we would have spent much more time here. Will be returning and bringing other cocktail-loving friends. A gem!

    Grey Tiger is undoubtedly one of the best bars in Toronto, and it easily secures a spot in my top 5! The love wish and cloud dragon cocktails were absolutely divine; their flavors were carefully crafted and left me craving for more. I am genuinely excited to return and savor each and every cocktail they offer.

    I recently visited this bar and unfortunately had a disappointing experience. The bartender's attitude was quite rude, and the cocktails didn't meet expectations. The atmosphere felt lacking and the vibe was off. After one drink we went to Seoul Shakers just across the street and everything was just better.

  • 5/5 Ben P. 2 months ago on Google • 14 reviews New
    Grey Tiger is our neighborhood bar that we have been going to for years. We have been to bars all over the city and nothing compares! The cocktails are always fantastic and make sure you try the spicy nuts. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting...never too loud and the music selection is always on point. A big shout out to Nat for always taking such great care of us when we are in! Grey Tiger is THE BEST!

  • 5/5 Sandy L. 3 months ago on Google • 11 reviews New
    Visiting from out of town and was recommended this spot. Must I say, some of the best service I’ve had in Toronto. Our server Nat was incredible. So welcoming, so helpful! We came with a bigger party and she provided some of the best recommendations and service. Definitely check this spot out, spectacular drink, great vibes. Ask for Nat and Anthony!

    Meet new friends? Fall in love with a stranger? Who knows what the potions are Grey Tiger will do for you. The bar is intimate like you're going to get to know everyone around you, but that's because this bar fits that many people. The lighting is ambient like this morning's breakout didn't happen. And the drinks are spiked with a touch of alchemy. The bartenders have something for everyone, and the menu is like good UI, it lets you know what to expect with every choice. I recommend letting the witches brew you a custom one. Bring a date here or come alone, I dare you.

    Grey Tiger is hands down my favourite cocktail spot in the city. I’ve been delighted and charmed by so many beautifully crafted cocktails over the handful of times I’ve been. I always leave happy and inspired to try some new creation of my own. Never change!

  • 5/5 Vincent P. 5 months ago on Google
    Always had great service and drinks at Grey Tiger. The atmosphere is great and the cocktails too. The snacks are also delicious. One of my favourite haunts in Totonto by far.

  • 5/5 Jo M. 8 months ago on Google
    Great service. Lots of fantastic cocktail to choose from. Awesome atmosphere. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Felipe C. 8 months ago on Google
    Best cocktails in the city!! A great place to celebrate, bring a date or just enjoy incredibly crafted drinks. You’ve never had drinks like this before! P.S. their slushy cocktails are delicious too.

  • 5/5 Liam B. 8 months ago on Google
    The best place to get your cocktail fix in Toronto, whether you are looking for a high proof flavour bomb OR a completely non-alcoholic delight. If you are burnt out on cocktails, they have a thoughtfully curated selection of beer and wine too! And as if that isn’t enough, they have a wildly interesting selection of whiskys and other spirits! Well worth a visit!

  • 5/5 Christine A. 1 year ago on Google
    So lovely. Wish we lived closer, cocktail of choice was so enjoyable and my partner was able to try a whiskey they haven’t been able to find anywhere.

  • 5/5 Jeremy A. 8 months ago on Google
    Really, really love Grey Tiger. Cocktails are always on point and the folks are lovely. It is also a great place to try (and buy) rare bottles of spirits and other goodies - including great batched cocktails! - if you are looking for a gift for someone or a treat for yourself. Can't recommend it enough.

  • 5/5 Liz J. 8 months ago on Google
    LOVE Grey Tiger. A true cocktail bar. Immaculate vibes and some of the best drinks in the city. From the gold on the wallpaper to the design of their menu to the garnish on your drink, you can tell they live for the small details. Grateful to have them in the neighborhood. Tens across the board!

  • 5/5 Meng C. 9 months ago on Google
    Cute space and creative cocktails! Service and fast and friendly.

  • 5/5 Barry C. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this place so much. Best cocktail bar in the city and even the country. I honestly can’t say nice enough things. The owners, Becky and Ryan, are kind and super knowledgeable about cocktails and will adapt something to every taste. For anyone who wants to be a regular at a bar: you couldn’t pick a better place than this.

  • 5/5 Antonio T. 9 months ago on Google
    More like Great Tiger! We were seated on the back patio, super nice vibe out there and quiet enough to enjoy conversation with your group. Drinks were delicious and reasonably priced, servers fun to talk with, would definitely come back again.

  • 5/5 Timm Lorenz M. 9 months ago on Google
    My buddy and I were in last Sunday night and had a great time! Drinks were well priced for the quality and the service was fantastic! I unfortunately didn't catch the name of our two bartenders but both of them took excellent care of us and we felt right at home!

  • 5/5 Lisa S. 2 years ago on Google
    My partner and I's local cocktail bar especially during the summer when their slushy machines are on (who doesn't like a boozie slushy?!). No matter what time of the year, the drinks are delicious, the vibe is chill yet intimate, and the service is fantastic.

  • 5/5 alui914 1 year ago on Google
    Walked by this place and took a chance to stop in for a cocktail and was so happy we did. The menu was extensive and the cocktails were unique. Grab a cocktail before or after dinner reservation at Alma and make it a night you will talk about for a while.

  • 5/5 Julia B. 1 year ago on Google
    Decided to try this place out for the first time on New Year’s Eve and was so happy we did! Creative, delicious cocktails. Good vibes. Wonderful service. It’s definitely our new favourite cocktail bar in the neighbourhood! We can’t wait to come back.

  • 5/5 Indre R. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely cocktails, so many options to choose from! Cozy setting and good service.

  • 5/5 Ria A. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is 🔥!! The interior, staff & cocktails are all incredible. Can’t wait to be back!

  • 5/5 madhur m. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the place! You will find us sipping on cocktails every week. Love the owners of the bar. Super friendly and very welcoming. This is a gem of a place If you are looking for an elaborate cocktail menu or custom cocktails!

  • 5/5 Polina V. 1 year ago on Google
    Can’t wait to return! Absolutely adore the creative list of cocktails (and LOVE how the menu lists the ranking of each drink in terms of how boozy/refreshing/adventurous it is). The thing I absolutely looove the most though is their “break-even bottle” concept (ask them about it!) We were all able to try a bit of an Icelandic whiskey that we would otherwise have never discovered. They have a little patio in the back too!

  • 5/5 Shannon S. 5 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    This place is my favourite bar, period. A perfect mix of decadent and welcoming. The staff are personable and take care to foster a good experience. Everyone I bring here or send here raves about what a special place it is. Their cocktails are the measure by which I assess other cocktails, and they are always coming up with creative new offerings that are flavour-driven. Delicious, cozy, magical ✨ Plus, the owners (who I only know through visits to the bar) are tremendously kind and community-minded, so who wouldn't want to support their small business?

👍 Good food as always! Convenient. Kids friendly. One star less because in the men’s washrooms there is no arrangement for baby diapers change. I managed it somehow but for a single dad with baby it is not convenient. I hope management would put up something to resolve it. Thank you.
