Of Gloucester on Yonge might be closer.... but that is in an iffy area...

Extremely close to where I live, but unfortunately it's on the second floor.
The first few years here I visited the Pilot Tavern on occasion until they
added several steps in the front door. However, if it's that type of pub
atmosphere that you're into, I know of several locations nearby that are
similar. Or, if you're ok for a dive, there's the Burgundy bar and grill ~
less than five minutes away.
