melting into a drizzle of berry
compote.
Lunch time fare is light and nutritious, with a selection of wraps,
sammies, and salads. Open-faced
pulled pork on focaccia is tangy and
crisp, with strands of pork smothered in bbq sauce and topped with
tart green apples. The spring salad
has greens cloaked in a strawberry
honey poppy seed vinaigrette.
The savoury bison burger is cut
with sharp Swiss cheese. Sliced
mushrooms, caramelized onion and
tomato that cling to melted cheese
in between soft buns.
The crispy chicken bbq burger
combines lightly seasoned chicken
tenders tossed in bbq sauce, and
lettuce to make one well-balanced
burger. Caramelized onions add
sweetness and tie it all together.

A combination of pizzeria, hip
bistro, and cocktail bar, Café 22
fulfils a variety of culinary yearnings
on the vibrant Corydon Ave drag.
This revamped resto serves fastcasual fare, while upping the ante on
atmosphere.
Stemming from local delivery stalwart Pizza Hotline, Café 22 offers a
sit down experience for favourite
cheesy pizzas, pillowy breadsticks
and hearty salads, along with stone
fired pizzas.
Don't be fooled by the walletfriendly prices; the sleek décor
and chic bar scream date night.
Charcoal-coloured brick walls add
industrial flair, and a living wall of
plants freshens up the otherwise dark
room with greenery. While the renos
have doubled the square footage,
bar side tables are packed so close,
it feels like one large party, buzzing
with chatter.
This watering hole is a summertime hotspot, with locals flocking
post work and pre events to grab a
seat and people watch. If you want
a table outside, be sure to arrive
early (around 5 pm), especially on
sun dappled days when patio time
is prime.
Start with well-loved “build your
own” pizzas and calzones, which
allow diners to customize meals and
get creative with veggies, meats and
finishes.
The calzone is a puffed up wonder
with savoury sweet San Marzano
sauce, caramelized onions, prosciutto
and roasted red peppers swaddled in
