7 Train-Themed Cocktail Bar You Need to Visit
"Because trains run like clockwork (at least in theory; lookin’ at you, Amtrak), this sedate bar inside the Fairmont Royal York is centered around an elegant clock tower, once an actual railway station clock. But the concept works for other reasons. Biding time in the wide-open public space of a hotel lobby can feel similar to waiting in a train station, and it’s a nod to the presence of Toronto’s Union Station, just a block away. Imagine long, narrow carpeted aisles that suggest walking through a rail car, plush settees and angular, gold-trimmed chandeliers. Innovative drinks include the savory Full Moon Martini, with vodka, “Roquefort mezcal” and sherry vermouth. The bar opened in 2019, timed to the hotel’s 90th anniversary." - Kara Newman
