Address: 106 John St #3, Toronto, ON M5V 2E1, Canada

A vibrant British-style bar and kitchen in the Entertainment District, Fox on John runs from bottomless weekend brunch straight through to late-night — with a patio that looks up at the CN Tower.

The concept

Fox on John bills itself as one of Toronto’s most vibrant British restaurants and bars, and it lives up to it by being an all-day place: brunch, lunch, dinner and shareable late-night plates under one roof, steps from the CN Tower, Rogers Centre and the TIFF Bell Lightbox.

What to order

Guest favourites are the seafood pasta, the southwest chicken pizza and the warm spinach-artichoke dip, with a big plate of chicken wings the default for the table. Beyond that it’s an easygoing spread of appetizers, pastas, pizzas, sharing platters and steaks, plus a strong wine and beer list. Weekends bring an all-inclusive bottomless brunch.

The Space

A bright, roomy interior that opens onto a sunny patio with clear CN Tower views — comfortable and social by day, and dialled up at night. It’s equally at home for a laid-back catch-up and a big celebration.

Who it’s for

Weekend brunch crews, after-work groups and pre-game or pre-show meetups near the stadium and theatres; an easy, crowd-pleasing choice when the group can’t agree on anything fancier.

Questions and answers

Should I reserve? Booking helps for weekend brunch and game or event nights, when the Entertainment District fills up fast.

Are there vegetarian and dietary options? Yes — vegetarian, vegan and gluten-friendly menus are available alongside the pizzas, pastas and shares.

What should I order first? Start with the spinach-artichoke dip and wings, then the seafood pasta or the southwest chicken pizza.

Is it good for groups? Very — sharing platters, big tables and a bottomless brunch make it a natural for groups and celebrations.

When’s the best time for the patio? Sunny afternoons and warm evenings for the CN Tower view; come early on event days before the pre-game rush.

    Wonderful $15 pasta special on Wednesdays! Seriously, I don't know where else you can find such a good deal downtown.

Decent food in a very energetic and lively atmosphere. We unknowingly came in on an evening with a live DJ, and while I can appreciate the skill, and without being too much of a prude, maybe it was a little too loud for…
