Taste
Essential Toronto Cuisine Is Here
When you dine at Fairmont Royal York, it’s a sensory journey – every time, at every point across this essential destination. Whether you meet us under the glow of the clock at CLOCKWORK for champagne and cocktails, gather your peers at REIGN, the city's dining room for a celebration of Canadian fare, or join us at the renowned Library Bar for reimagined classics, you’re tasting a unique culinary vision at the very heart of the city.
Food and drink at Fairmont Royal York captures the unique soul of Toronto. We draw from all the vivid multicultural influences of this great city, working largely from local produce sourced at fertile Ontario farms, wild caught fish and seafood, and the finest ingredients across the world. At the bar, our cocktails turn heads and win awards (you simply must try something prepared with honey from our rooftop apiary – or a pint of our Mill Street Apiary Ale). And our wine lists will leave you in awe, with bottles sourced from California to Champagne to Chablis.
Every bite, every sip, every moment: this is a culinary experience that captures the heart and soul of this unmatched Toronto destination. We can’t wait to serve you very soon.
