Queen West Neighbourhood Shopping


Queen West shopping has been synonymous with hip since Canadian designers and cool indie boutiques set up shop in the eighties.

Though it’s gotten more commercial and the more influential fashion has move further west (and east!) this area is still big with the twenty something crowd.

This strip of Toronto shopping is crammed full of mall stores, street kids, teens waiting for a glimpse of their favourite pop star in front of Much Music and tourists. 

In the summer the portion of Queen, west from University to Spadina will be full of people and you better show up early if you are looking for a table on the patio of any of the famous bars (the Rivoli or the Horseshoe anyone?)

Queen Street West

Further west you will find the fashion district with fabric, buttons and bead stores. Then even further west you enter the art and design district and then Parkdale where many of the independent boutiques have re-emerged.
