Brain Teasers Toronto

Almost Jeopardy @ Bellwoods

One of the best breweries in the city; one of the most popular trivia formats. Worthy of checking out. Take two as the prior date was full. A table for 6 is the largest you can book so this time I have booked two tables for two teams. Enjoy your Labour Day with beer and trivia.

Dine side by side with other solo diners — every Thursday in Toronto (#dine)

# Dine side by side with other solo diners. **Every Thursday. Everyone comes on their own.** We find and hold the city's most social seats for solo diners — you reserve yours and show up. ## The seats do the introductions. * **Conversation starts itself** You sit down with a hello, and talk starts on its own — side by side, there's no face-to-face interview, nobody performs, nobody's on a date. Counter seats have worked this way forever. * **The numbers agree** Nine in ten Gen Z diners say they enjoy dining alongside strangers, and one in three has made a real friend that way. People want an experience as much as a meal — and the city's restaurants have quietly had the perfect seats for it all along. We make them accessible: one held seat, every Thursday. Dinner can be a full meal or just a drink. The company costs nothing. * **You're part of the room** Alone at a table for one, you watch the room. Seated side by side, you *are* the room — a bartender pouring or a kitchen at work in front of you, good company beside you. That's the whole difference. ## How it works 1. Reserve a seat One tap, and we show you this Thursday's spot. A few details hold your seat. 2. You're expected Reminders arrive on WhatsApp before dinner. Walk in, show your reservation at the door, take your seat. 3. The counter does the rest Good food, side-by-side seats, and conversation that happens effortlessly. ## Nothing about Thursday is random. Every spot on our list is somewhere we'd happily spend an evening ourselves. We look for rooms where conversation already exists — lively counters, chefs at work, bartenders who know the city, places where coming on your own has always felt natural. Whether it's another #dine guest, the person beside you, or a conversation that starts on its own, you're part of the room from the moment you sit down. ## Good to know * ✓ Not dating, not networking — just good company * ✓ You only pay for what you order * ✓ Full dinner or just a drink — order what suits you * ✓ English-speaking company * ✓ Free to cancel until 4 hours before your reservation Coming on your own shouldn't mean being on your own — and the best seat in the house isn't always a table. Sometimes it's front row at the counter. **IMPORTANT** Seat confirmations happen through #dine: https://www.hashtagdine.com/
