We all know Yonge and Eglinton as one of the best walking strips in the city. ย But when it is โ40ห without the windchill, a stroll up and down the street isn’t in the cards. ย No problem. Our little corner of the world is full of places to escape the frigidity. ย So here are some tips for staying warm at Yonge and Eglinton.
Staying warm at Yonge and Eglinton by catching a flick
The recently renovated Cineplex at the recently renovated Yonge Eglinton Centre is now one of the more cozy theatres in town to take in a blockbuster. For more of a film than a movie, head across Eglinton to the Canada Square Cinemas.
Grab a bite
The stripโs lined with bistro-pubs, resto-pubs, gastro-pubs and food from around the world. Weโre partial to Robertoโs a few blocks up at Yonge and Craighurst. Best Italian in the city.
Have a sweat
The Good Life at Yonge and Eglinton is your best bet. But for something different, try a kickboxing or muay thai class at TKMT Academy, south of Eglinton at 1992 Yonge Street.
Take it in
Get a window seat at Grazie and watch the neighbourhood walk by in their parkas while you sip on a delicious merlot.
And the best way to stay warm at Yonge and Eglinton: ย going to the dentist.
