I love finding cute local places to eat good food and drink fancy drinks! It's a bonus when you find places that are baby and toddler friendly!


Here are a few of my favourite places that have great food, drinks, are aesthetically pleasing and of course you can bring your little ones:


CAFE CANCAN located - 89 Harbord St. Toronto

This cafe is SUPER cute it's full of colourful pastels and has the nicest little details! They have beautiful floral wallpaper complimented nicely by the colourful plates, bowls and cups. To top it all off, there is a nice sized patio in the back and when you enter the café you walk through a big pastel pink door!

Their drinks are delicious and their food is amazing! Make sure to try their watermelon salad!






GIOVANNI Italian Kitchen & Pizza - 760 College St. Toronto

This Italian restaurant is beautiful. We sat outside on their patio, and the ambiance made it feel like you were on a terrace in Italy. To make that feeling even more realistic, the food was delicious and authentic. We enjoyed their pizzas, cheese boards, polenta fries and my personal fav, their spinach pasta pancetta.



PORT - 1289 Wharf St Bay Ridges, Pickering

This cute spot is located on the east side of Frenchman's Bay in Pickering, right off Lake Ontario. We spent an evening here enjoying a few of their drinks and appetizers while sitting lakeside on their outdoor patio. Recommendation would be to try the G.R Sour!



LOCALE Aurora - 14845 Young Street Aurora

My husband and I have gone here several times and it just gets better and better each time! This is an Italian inspired restaurant and their food is so good along with their cocktails. I usually get the pasta and its a MUST try - takes exactly like how it's made in Italy. They also make amazing pizza, my husband always gets the spicy Calabrese pizza. I haven't had their oysters but apparently they are known for them! The inside of this restaurant is beautiful and great for taking pictures. Ive been both daytime and nighttime and the ambiance is equally as beautiful!





Il Postino - 186 Main Street, Unionville

As you can tell, we gravitate towards Italian places and this one is no different! This one is super close to home for me and has the cutest outdoor patio which makes you feel like you are in Italy! What makes Il Postino unique is that their takeout is just as good as eating in the restaurant. If you visit this restaurant, I recommend trying their Orecciette with sausage and rapini pasta!



NEST desserts/Roam Cafe - 62 King Street W, Bowmanville

This place is super super cute and if you are in the area of Bowmanville you must go! They have the cutest desserts and amazing coffee! They make an amazing drink called Espresso Tonic which is an espresso with tonic water, and lime. You'd never think it would taste good buts it's delicious and refreshing! The inside of this cafe is great and theres even a little market in the back where you can buy local goodies!




Let me know if you have any favourite spots in the GTA! I'd like to try new places :)
