Best Spots to Watch the Game in Toronto

POSTED ON April 13, 2022 BY Justine Smith

Downtown West is alive with sports fans attending in-person games for the first time since the start of the pandemic. We’re proud to be the home of three major league sports teams – Toronto Blue Jays, Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors.


Sports Venues 

Rogers Centre – 1 Blue Jays Way

Canada’s only Major League Baseball stadium has been an integral part of Toronto’s skyline for nearly 30 years. Rogers Centre is uniquely situated in the downtown core of North America’s fourth largest city. As a part of Toronto’s Entertainment District, Rogers Centre is a perfect starting off point for you to see all that our great city has to offer. Catch a Blue Jays game – SEE SCHEDULE


Scotiabank Arena

Scotiabank Arena is Canada’s premier sports and entertainment venue and home to the NHL’s Toronto Maple Leafs, NBA’s Toronto Raptors and the NLL’s Toronto Rock. The Toronto Raptors are hosting Tailgates presented by Tangerine at Maple Leaf Square (right outside of Gate 6 at Scotiabank Arena). Note: This is for access to the outdoor tailgate viewing party only and does not grant access inside of Scotiabank Arena. Check out all the exciting upcoming events!

Sports Bars

Hoops Sports Bar & Grill – 125 Bremner Blvd

Hoops Sports Bar and Grill features a multitude of flat-screens TV’s, some on the walls, others in private booths and a massive 126-inch infinite plasma for the big events. With a diverse menu that includes traditional pub fare with a delicious Hoops twist and 19 beers on draught there is always something for everyone.


Real Sports- 15 York St

Conveniently located beside Scotiabank Arena in the heart of Toronto’s Sports and Entertainment district, RS caters to sports fans as much as music and entertainment fans. With a new, modern design featuring premium styles and materials, an upscale menu offering hand-selected, local and seasonal ingredients and a new atmosphere, RS is a unique take on the traditional sports bar.


The Loose Moose – 146 Front Street West

The Loose Moose is a lively bar in downtown Toronto favoured by locals and out-of-towners since 1989. Their fondness may have something to do with its beer selection. After all, with over 65 varieties on tap, repeat visits are kind of a given, especially for lovers of Canadian craft.


Hooters – 280 Adelaide Street W

The founders of Hooters hit on a big idea by accident—just by putting the stuff we love all in one place. Craveable food, cold beer, and all the sports you could possibly watch on wall-to-wall big screen TVs. And of course this Downtown hotspot is known best for its lovely and accommodating hostesses, offering one-of-a-kind hospitality and serving guests consistently good food.


KELLYS LANDING – 123 Front St. W

The Landing is an open concept restaurant and patio, with a wide range of menu items all made in house to provide you a fresh and satisfying meal. The menu has a wide range of options including vegan and gluten free. A full service bar featuring exclusive wines and cocktails, stylish atmosphere and detailed service offer you a casual yet refined dining experience. Try any one of the signature cocktails created by expert mixologists, enjoy fresh ingredients and new flavours.
