There's the one structure to walk through and check out all the models of the different developments happening around the world. This is an open structure so dress for the weather when you go. There are portable heaters located throughout but it may be chilly to some.

This place is actually really cool. It's immersive, colorful, and way more fun than I expected. You…read morewalk through different rooms with lights, projections, and interactive stuff that makes you think about the planet without feeling like you're being lectured. Overall: worth checking out if you're into interactive experiences or just want to do something different in the city!

Visited Arcadia Earth recently and overall had a good experience!…read more The space is beautifully designed with lots of immersive, photo-worthy rooms and a strong focus on environmental awareness. I love how they combine art + technology to teach about climate change in a way that's easy for kids to understand. The VR feature and interactive elements were fun, and it's definitely a great place for families or anyone looking for something different to do in Toronto. That said, for the price (~$39), it may feel a bit short for some people, and it's more of a "go once" type of experience. Still, I appreciate the message behind it and think it's worth checking out at least once--especially with kids!

A great night hang out spot on the weekends. Love that they have free games for you to play so…read moreyou're not stuck just sitting at your table while having drinks. The vibes here are relaxed, casual and fun. They have a small dance floor with "booths" on the sides which is a nice touch. Haven't tried their foods before but their menu looks great. Drinks here are also very affordable compared to other loungey/ night spots. Check it out if you're in the area and looking for a casual night out.

This was a really fun place to visit! The drinks were good and we had the kimchi Mac and cheese…read moreduring the happy hour

Ten bucks for two levels of throwback gaming, genius level status!…read more We had a blast playing games from the 90's and 00's. There is a photo booth, a bar on each level and clean restrooms on the 2nd floor (not accessible tho). Pinball games, all the gaming consoles you could want, and guitar hero play-off's. What's there not to love?! We had a few drinks which were decently priced with sufficient strength. There are thin console tables between games to set your drinks on. Service was chill as well. The place is clean, hand sanitizers spread throughout and not a sticky surface in sight. Beats playing in your mom's basement...lol!

There's a bar , drinks menu riff off of classic drinks, they also have alcoholic slushies ! Typical pub food, burgers, pizza, fries. The staff are super friendly and always want to ensure you have a good time. The decor is obviously game themed with video game characters throughout. A great place to take the kids (young and old) for a day of fun!

Stopped by to watch a sports game. The venue has a bowling alley section that was much busier,…read morewhile the lounge area where I was seated was quieter and more relaxed. The lounge was spacious and provided a great setting to enjoy the game. We ordered the wings with gochujang sauce ($20), house fries ($9), and ice cream sandwiches ($10). The wings were delicious, with a great balance of sweet heat from the sauce. The ice cream sandwiches were generously sized--easily enough for two people to share!

So growing up I was a hardcore bowler and was okay…read more Took the fam to bowl here for an hour My observation is that it is incredibly expensive $150 canadian per hour and the lanes are mickey mouse Pins are attached by string so you do not get pin action Lanes are warped and overwaxed Great for expensive entertainment but if you are coming for serious bowling.....Nope

I get really anxious when I go out to hear drum n bass. Most venues are usually crap in providing…read moredecent gear for a proper drum n bass sound setup that I'd rather stay at home and rewind podcasts all night. Hey, at least I don't have to pay for cover at home. The Basement doesn't have any issues in the soundsystem department. It is one of the most satisfying drum n bass soundsystems I've heard. Most venues usually book a drum n bass DJ and then plug them into the house system which is either tuned for rock, hip hop or house/trance. That's like booking a full on performance of Macbeth and staging it on someone's front porch. That just won't do. The Basement agrees. The highs weren't ear shattering and the lows weren't distorted out. The mids were firm and crisp like a nice punch in the chest. Standard. Overall, The Basement is exactly what it says it is: a basement. You enter from the street level, get patted down and descend to the lower depths. Pay your cover, check out the disregarded pool table and then navigate to the main floor where the bar is. Grab yourself a drink and then feel some bass in your chest. For some SERIOUS bass action, check out the bathrooms. If you've ever wondered what it'd be like to relieve yourself inside a giant bassbin, this is it. Hold on to something when you're inside.

I had heard about The Basement Nightclub for many months, so I just had to check it out finally…read more Friday night I swung by the club to dance to good music and to have a couple of beers. From the time I entered, to exiting the club - the whole experience was great. Specially the staff, so pleasant and professional. As a girl "washroom hygiene" is very important to me when I choose my party venue - I must say the ladies washroom at The Basement was NOT intimating to use at all. I was happy to see a washroom attendant keeping things tidy and making sure the place smelt good with strawberry scented air freshener, lol. Overall 4.5/5, I would definitely go back soon.

The third DIY event spot in Kensington on Augusta, on the east side of the street in fact, that I'm…read morefamiliar with over the last few years. Book your art event now, so their promo says, and I went to a music event with multiple acts, all for $10 at the door, and unquestionably great value for the cash spent. When I went it was BYOB which was fine, and limiting the amount of alcohol around probably isn't the worst thing. It's in the basement and my Fido service ended so keep that in mind. Others seemed to have no problem. Great layout with one room as the lobby with coat check, and roomy bathrooms off the the side, and the larger room adjoining for the entertainment. At the far end away from the stage, there's a smaller room as well, with a couch for lounging. Since there is no green room the bonus is that you get to talk to and meet the talent. Careful not to bother the neighbours if you go out front and hang out on the street.
