Cheap beer anywhere in the city? eg. pitchers under $12?

[pmccabe_25]

Seems like if you want a pint of beer in Toronto you have to shell out at least $5-$6

[tjr]

This is a pretty comprehensive list:

The Fox & Fiddle @ John/Adelaide has $10 domestic pitchers on Monday - Canadian, Coors and Keiths (I think). Certainly not the greatest selection, but they have 1/2-price wings to boot.

Their salt and pepper wings are worth the trip if the cheap beer isn't enticing enough.

Woody's on Church is offering 60 oz pitchers of domestic for $12.

[Ms. Peel]

Toby's at College & Bathurst offers $10 pitchers for a variety of domestic beers, and the new Dog's Bollocks at Queen & Niagara has the same deal (I think it's owned by the same people.) My memory is fuzzy on the details, but I seem to recall that the Crown & Tiger across the street from Toby's has cheap pitchers as well.

definitely bistro 422, toby's, the rhino, or if your up to it $3.50 pints of 50 at the social!

Beer Station, on Bloor, just east of Bathurst. There's a pint and wing deal for $12. Pint is something domestic though .. nothing fancy, although I think it's $14 or something like that for a Rickards White or something like that.. The wings included in the deal is a pound, which is not bad at all. Quite tastey and not dry too.

[jennjen18]

Haha, "pint and wing deal"? I meant PITCHER and wing deal for $12... my bad.

[tjr]

A pint and a pound of wings for $12 is still a deal at most places in the GTA!

Cheapest beer I know of, Pint or Pitcher, is at Pauper's at Bathurst and Bloor.

Jane's Happy Bar on the Danforth (1238 or 1240 -- just E of Greenwood subway stn) Not a wide selection of beer, but at $3/bottle domestic, and $4 for imports, how can you go wrong? Plus they have a pool table and patio.

[neighborguy]

What is the clientele there like? That stretch of the Danforth is rather sketchy -- which is not so say it's not safe as I've walked by there many times late in the evening and have never felt threatened -- but it is definitley unsavoury.

Mean to check out Carousel bakery (in daylight hours) sometime.

I would definitely pick Sneaky Dee's. I know that they offer different beer & food specials all week long. They give great pitcher prices on craft beers, too. Plus, their nachos & wings are amongst the best in the city.

[pmccabe_25]

thanks for the suggestions. volo in particular looks pretty good.

how is the food there?

[xtal]

The food isn't amazing, but it's not bad. The pizzas are decent, as are many of the appetizers. Mains range from about $10-18 if I recall correctly.

Just wanted to thank you for this thread.. I've got a lot of beer drinking to do before summer's up :)

Is everybody talking about *decent* beer? I know beggars can't be choosers, but I wouldn't pay $2 for a pitcher of Coors, Canadian, Bud, etc...

[xtal]

If it's decent beer you want, head to Caffé Volo on Monday nights. Most of their pints are $4 then, and they have a great microbrew selection. The Denison Weissbeer is particularly appealing this time of year. The food isn't fantastic, but is passable.

[NovoCuisine]

Excellent. Thanks very much!

There's a little place called the Unique Bar & Grill that has pitchers (only one choice of beer) for $8.50. It's on Irwin St., right next door to the Ethiopian House restaurant (just north of Yonge & Wellesley). It has a nice patio too.

[hoohaa]

Bistro 422 on college at bathust is hands down the cheapest booze in the city

[j2brady]

I second that! I love that place.

I think domestic pitchers at the Wheat Sheaf are ~$12. Half price wings Sun, Mon, and Tues too.

I'm keen to hear of other beer deals though--nothing is better than a cheap pitcher of beer :)

[mindyt]

Try Sneaky Dee's on College and Bathurst. The pitchers are maybe $12-$15 depending on what kind of beer.
