7. Snakes & Lagers
It’s like being at the cottage with drinks and games, but instead you’re in the heart of downtown Toronto near College & Bathurst Streets. Put your board games knowledge out there with friends in this laid-back pub-style setting (where you can sip on beers and nibble on snacks as you thoughtfully master your next move on Battleship). It’s the first bar dedicated to board games in the city and has been a hotspot for intellects, hipsters and everything in between. Monopoly, anyone? —Jennifer Weatherhead Harrington
