Aloette Bay is the sister location to the beloved Aloette Spadina. Opening in 2024, Aloette Bay is conveniently situated just steps from Union Station, Scotiabank Arena, and the heart of downtown Toronto. Stop by to enjoy Aloette classics like the Aloette Burger, Fried Chicken, and Lemon Meringue Pie, or discover new staples like our breakfast offerings, bakery items for those on the go, and other soon-to-be favourites. Open for breakfast, lunch, happy hour and dinner.

Open since 2017, this stylish bistro remains one of the coolest reservations in town. Chef Patrick Kriss and his well-oiled restaurant group again demonstrate that they have the Midas touch. With the tasting menu-only ALO just upstairs, the team here is impressively polished in this diner setting. No wider than a train car, the cozy space offers satisfying, approachable dishes that look and taste far better than imagined. Iceberg wedges dressed in chive cream arrive under a mountain of puffed wild rice. A complimentary loaf of cheddar brioche wouldn’t be out of place on white tablecloth. Everyone wants the burger. And for dessert, there must be pie. The signature lemon meringue is a towering finale that will have you rolling out the door.

Aloette bills itself as a bistro, but the snug booths and long line of counter stools give off a distinct Barry Levinson vibe and the aforementioned burger, iceberg wedge salad and lemon meringue pie add to the diner sensation. Nonetheless, the kitchen executes those classics with rare expertise, and the menu offers much more to discover.
