For the longest time the only place to eat on a patio on the Humber Bay Shores was at Eden. It’s really good but it’s nice to have some other options. Firkin on the Bay is a welcome addition to this pretty area. Even if you sit inside, the huge floor-to-ceiling windows give a great view of Lake Ontario and the downtown Toronto skyline. The interior is inspired by a London tube station and is really fun and funky, with huge industrial open ceilings and giant bright canvases.

The food is your typical Firkin pub fare but with a little more flair. I loved the giant onion ring on top of my burger.

One of my fave menu items is the chicken and waffles with brussel sprouts. Ate this out on the patio, which is the best spot to have lunch in the summer with amazing views of the lake and really fun people-watching.

Great selection of local and imported beer on tap and the Caesars are just right. Firkin on the Bay is the perfect spot for a late lunch on a warm summer afternoon. 68 Marine Parade Drive.
