Sun March 30 at 7:00 PM, The Dock Ellis
1280 Dundas Street West, Toronto, ON M6J 1X7, Canada (Map & Directions)
I'll be in Toronto as a part of a trip across central Canada, and I was wondering if any Toronto mefites would want to meet up for dinner and drinks on Sunday, March 30th?
I've set the time (7pm) and the venue: The Dock Ellis, can't wait to meet you guys!

I could potentially make it on the 30th (which is a Sunday).

The Sun or Mon works for me. The Sun is best as Monday is my only day off.

Sunday is better for me.

I could do the evening on either day.

I'll see if I can get this one to work out.

Not sure if I can meet up, but the library bar at the Royal York is amazing. You should definitely make time for a drink there :)

Okay, sounds like Sunday is the day to go with, and I've updated the event description to reflect that (and removed that weird sentence where I called both the 30th and 31st Monday. don't know what happened there)

Some research led me to a possible venue: The Dock Ellis, which is ostensibly a sports bar but seems pretty nice, and seems to have good reviews. Anyone else have thoughts on venues?

I've heard good things about The Dock Ellis. Sounds good to me. What time?

23rd or 30th?

sorry about that! March 30th. First time doing an IRL post and apparently I can't read good-like. Should be up to date and accurate now.

This is so close to my house I am pretty sure I can walk over for a drink.

I might miss dinner, but will come for a drink.

Oh, I didn't realize you had actually decided on all the details. You might want to state this more explicitly in a comment because we don't necessarily get a notification when you edit the description.

Look forward to seeing you tomorrow at 7!

Yeah, I thought I had checked the "send a notification to people after you update" checkbox when finalizing the details, but either I didn't or it didn't actually send the notification.

The final details are tonight, 7pm @ The Dock Ellis (1280 Dundas Street West). Can't wait to meet you all.

Cool see you guys soon. Having dinner with friends before hand but I shouldn't be that late. Save me a seat!

We still haven't left Detroit after various wedding events, so unfortunately we're not going to make it. Have lots of fun!

I'm currently situated at the end of the bar in the main room, close to the door. Grey sweater.

We're about 15 min away. See you soon!

Hey-ho. Will you be still there about 9-9:30? I'm taking the turnip truck from Mississauga.

Waiting for Junction bus like a chump. Should have walked.

No wait i am going the totally wrong way like an idiot. Grabbing a cab.

There is no food here tonight due to charity event. We will soon go to the Caledonian, 856 College St, at Ossington.
posted by grouse at 5:08 PM on March 30, 2014


We are at the Caledonian now.

I am 30 min away but don't wait up on a school night on my account.

Great seeing everyone. Glad I made it out.
