Made-to-order mojitos are somewhat of a specialty at this casual College Street bar. Made with white rum, lime, mint, cane sugar and soda water, the creative cocktails are available in fruity flavours like strawberry, peach and wild berry. Or you could splurge on the deluxe Royal Mojito, a 3 oz indulgence made with white rum, Prosecco, mint and lime. If you’re wondering about the story behind the lengthy name, the bar is named after a novella by literary Gabriel García Márquez.
The name alone is worth the trip, but the folks here went the distance to make your beer-drinking experience memorable. You'll love the interior décor, complete with a wood bar and saddle stools, plus a fireplace and a stage backed by a wall covered in vinyl records. There’s a comedy night every Sunday at 8, but music reigns supreme with Choir! Choir! Choir! (the group that performed with Tegan and Sara at the 2014 Junos) practicing every Tuesday evening.
This spot has an extensive mojitos list amidst the vast drinks menu. From the Signature Classic with demerara sugar to the Royal Mojito with prosecco, and all the fruity flavours in between, this College Street bar is well-loved for its delicious takes on the Cuban drink.
