About Church St. Garage Bar

Church St. Garage sits at the south end of the Church-Wellesley Village, an industrial-styled bar and restaurant whose signature glass garage doors roll up onto Maitland Street the moment the weather turns. Open since 2013, it has built its reputation as a high-volume drag room, with performances most nights of the week and a Saturday lineup that runs from a noon drag brunch through afternoon and late-night shows. The kitchen keeps it straightforward, with burgers, fish and chips, and other elevated pub plates, and the week fills in around the drag with karaoke and rotating themed nights. The crowd skews younger and high-energy, and the open garage-door frontage makes it one of the more visible, easy-to-wander-into spots on this stretch of Church. A good first stop when you want food and a show in the same room rather than choosing between them.
