The Drake Hotel

An iconic boutique hotel and cultural hub in Toronto's West Queen West neighborhood, offering arts, entertainment, and dining experiences.

Tips from the community

Toronto’s all about views, and there’s no better way to enjoy them than from the vantage point of one of its many rooftop bars. Some of the best rooftop bars in Toronto sit atop destinations all their own, like the Sky Yard at the boutique Drake Hotel (which, by the way, has nothing to do with the rapper of the same name). These places offer incredible views, quick service and Instagram-worthy offerings.

Open all-year round, the Sky Yard at the Drake Hotel is one of Toronto’s most iconic spots. The upscale bohemian aesthetic that has come to define the Drake Hotel is on full-display across the comfortable furniture and eye-popping artwork, staying true to its West Queen West roots. With imaginative cocktails, bites to share and large dishes (brunch is especially popular) on the menu, it’s easy to see why this is typically regarded as one of Toronto’s very best rooftop bars.
