Ontario-sourced brewpub in Leslieville with seasonal kitchen
Avling is a brewpub-restaurant on Queen Street East in Leslieville where the kitchen and the brewery share the same philosophy: source almost everything from Ontario. The seasonal menu rotates around local farms and producers, and the house-brewed beers — crafted by a German-trained brew master using 99% Ontario ingredients — follow the same approach. Feast On certified for its commitment to local sourcing. The space works for brunch (Friday through Sunday), weeknight dinners, or happy hour pints. Styles range from barrel-aged sours to more approachable lagers, all brewed on-site. A solid pick for anyone who wants craft beer and a proper meal in the same sitting, without the usual brewpub compromises on either side.
