Library Bar

A timeless meeting place that remains the undercurrent of Toronto’s metropolitan character, Library Bar is a famed martini institution with an imaginative cocktail menu. Led by award-winning Director of Mixology James Grant, inspiration is derived from a canon of both literary and film classics, crafting a cocktail experience unlike any ever before seen at the iconic hotel, with a collection of odd and daring to refined ingredients, showcased in themes of Martinis, Masterpieces, Poetry, Folklore, Science Fiction, and Best Sellers. As the World Class Global Bartender of the Year 2021 and Canada’s 100 Best Bartender of the Year 2022, Grant brings an unparalleled level of expertise and creativity to make each sip an innovative exploration of flavors and an invitation to escape into a world of refined luxury. Leading the culinary vision is Library Bar’s Chef Brian Tang, who creates beloved classic dishes that guests have returned for time and again. A vibrant mosaic of fluid marbles, rich leathers of bold primary hues, whimsical velvets, and satin fringe adorn a nuanced canvas decorated with Canadian literature and sixteenth-century renaissance paintings. Library Bar is a place for the fashionable legends of the world to feel right at home.
