Irish Pubs & Restaurants in Toronto

There's something warm and welcoming about an Irish pub, and the Irish pubs in Toronto are no different. Could be all that wood, the comfortable chairs or the continuous flow of Guinness and other fine beers. And of course, a visit to an Irish pub is a must after the St. Patrick's Day Parade.
