Neighbourhood Pour — A Friday Night for Locals
When the weekend crowd takes over Queen West, Neighbourhood Pour is your space to gather with familiar faces, reconnect, and enjoy the area like a local.
This one’s for the neighbourhood.
Whether you’re a Queen West regular or live nearby, join us for a fun night that feels like Queen West’s best era. No RSVP needed. Just show up, settle in, and sip with neighbours. Local beer. Non-alc options. Cocktails starting at $14. Folks with proof of local residency will get a complimentary snack.
Friday night feels. Queen West energy.
We’ll see you there.

We’re part of The Theatre Centre, but we are also our own thing. A workspace, a coffee shop, a bar, a performance space, a gathering place. Coffee, cocktails, delicious treats, and free wifi—spend an hour or the whole day. This place is for you!
Our menu changes on the regular: Our Baker in Residence, Akash Swar, is often in the kitchen baking something brand new. If something smells good, make sure to try them before they’re gone. If you really love something, let us know so that we can bake it more often!
