Corktown and Distillery Historic District Food Tour

A Toronto Food Tours uniformed guide will be waiting for you when you arrive at the watchman's gates of the distillery district at 55 Mill Street. First up, you'll grab a cup of coffee at one of the the city's best coffee roasters. Then head off to stroll the cobblestone street of what was once the largest distillery in the world and now a national historic site.

Your guide will give you the history of the area and a look into the family that helped shape modern day Toronto. You will stop to fill your bellies at a French Bistro and an artisanal chocolate maker who recently had their dark chocolate named "Best in the World". Next, it is off to the Canary district, Toronto's newest neighborhood and previously home to the PAN AM Games Athletes Village.

After tasting some of the best Mediterranean food in the city, head out to the final neighborhood: Corktown. Along the way, stop for some delicious Mexican food, a sweet treat and one of Chef Scott's favorite dishes at a local eatery. In all, you will taste 10 dishes at 8 locally owned restaurants and bars. You'll finish your tour with a craft beer tasting at a Toronto institution dating back to 1889. The tour lasts approximately 4 hours.
