This Is Dovercourt.
A Very Good Day Is Just Outside.
Coffee first. A little browsing along Bloor. Lunch that runs late. A walk with no particular destination. Dovercourt knows how to make a day of it. Colourful storefronts, busy patios, bikes, dogs and familiar faces give the neighbourhood a rhythm all its own. With Ossington and Dufferin stations on Line 2, you’re also well connected when the day takes you somewhere else.
Two Parks. Four Seasons.
Christie Pits brings swimming, skating and room to play. Dufferin Grove adds picnics and a farmers’ market. Both are a ten-minute walk.
Come Hungry.
Decisions Will Follow.
Flouring Ideas, Mac’s Pizza, Gus Tacos and PIANO PIANO offer four convincing answers to the question: what are we eating next? But that’s only the start!
The List Is Only a Suggestion.
Fiesta Farms and Dufferin Mall cover what you came for. Siberia Vintage and Dead Dog Records make a strong case for going off-list.
The Day Has An Encore.
Paradise Theatre brings films and live music to the block. Comedy Bar is nearby when the evening is nowhere near finished.
And If The Mood Takes You Farther.
With Ossington and Dufferin stations on either side, the rest of Toronto is almost suspiciously easy to reach. If you want to go further, Bloor GO to Pearson or Kitchener is just two stops west and a short walk. A Transit Score of 91 simply makes it official.
Flanked by two subway stations, Dufferin and Ossington on Line 2, it’s easy to get anywhere in Toronto from Motto. Just 3 stops east gets you to Line 1, where it’s just 11 minutes to Union Station. Bloor GO to Pearson or Kitchener is just two stops west and a short walk. There is also the Metrolinx SmartTrack plan at Bloor and Lansdowne with future links to Barrie in 2026.
