The Shore Leave Tiki Bar

Where to sip tropical cocktails in Toronto

The Shore Leave is a local tiki bar that’s made its home on the east Danforth. The interior features palm trees, wooden barrel tables, a jungle mural and fake plants Staff clad in Hawaiian shirts serve up handcrafted cocktails like the Maiden Slayer, a gin-based fizzy cocktail with strawberry hibiscus, honey water and Cherriosity cider. If you’re out on the town with a group, split the Jungle Juice punch bowl, its bound to be a hit. The local favorite is the Kon Tiki; it comes served in a frozen pineapple and goes down sweet, creamy and boozy.
