Queen’s Quay Terminal

8-9-25 it has two separate main area, one to take ferries for the islands and the next ones are for city cruises, both are count as main tourist attraction and lake shore peaceful walkway. Very crowded in the evening and beautiful. Parking is difficult and far from the point. I recommend using public transportation. Subway has Quay station just about 300 feet away.

Busy waterview area. This place is a tourist spot. You can do a boat cruise or take the water taxis across to the island. Buy tickets for cruise early. Parking is ample but can get busy during other events happening. Food and shopping in area. Traffic can be atrocious so give yourself time to get down there... at least 1 hr plus depending where you ate coming from.

Queen’s Quay Terminal was built in 1927. It was known as the Toronto Terminal Warehouse. It was a storage facility back then. Ships would dock and would unload its goods right in front of it. These goods would eventually go via CP and CN Rail for distribution. Over time, less ships would come to our ports as neighbouring ports expanded. In 1983, it transformed into a mixed used building consisting of residential, retail and office spaces which is what we know of today. Farm Boy, Tim Hortons and several restaurants with outdoor patios are located within the Queen’s Quay Terminal. There’s washrooms available within this facility. Nearby is the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery. The Plant used to be the heating and refrigeration facility for the Toronto Terminal Warehouse. Now, it showcases the works of Artists. This is accessible by the TTC transit. Take a streetcar number # 509 from Union Station. Exit at Queens Quay Station.

Transformed in 1983, Queen’s Quay Terminal was one of Toronto’s first conversions of a former industrial building to an elegant mixed commercial, residential, and retail complex. Today, it offers great dining and retail amenities, modern offices and sophisticated living along the lake. Very busy and alive in summer time☀️still my favorite place to walk around harbour and get fresh air while watching landing 🛬planes and passing by all kinda boats 🛥️🚤⛵️🛶

Beautiful building with a lot of good businesses. I stop here when shopping at farm boy or getting a coffee or going to the restaurant on the upper level. This is a great spot to chill and sip drinks. The interior has an appealing architecture and the area surrounding the building has a lot of great seating with fine views of the water and skyline Management does a very good job of maintaining this place and it is an honour to be able to use their facilities and peruse the interestin exhibits they sometimes put up

The boat was good and there was good options of food . The service was good . The food was buffet style. I wish they had more snacks when they buffet was done . The chicken , fish and steak was very good . The view was nice . They also had a Easter bunny my niece really loved the bunny .The bunny was very friendly and nice . We went for Easter brunch . The con is that food ran out pretty quick they should better by filling the food faster and putting more quantity. 9/10

I saw a beautiful river side along the river Ontario☺️, the cruise sightseeing is a bit cold in April, better wear more before on board😅

Went for a work cruise. It definitely took us a moment to locate the correct boat. Would love it if the designated porting areas had a more apparent look to it. The is tons of food and activities happening and it’s fairly easy to navigate your way around the terminal.

Cool space that we only passed through on the way to a boat ride. Numerous restaurants and bars. Clean and safe feeling with plenty of nearby parking.

Queenquay is located in Toronto downtown by the harbour seawall. The mall isn't big but it is quite empty. I feel like most people just come here for the restaurants. No free parking is available here. The mall is connected to the office towers. I believe the mall here is to serve the people working in the office tower.

After many years absence I returned to the shopping area of the Queen's Quay Terminal and I was so sad that the space which had been such a vibrant area of intriguing upscale and cottage shops has been gutted and left with nothing more than a grocery store, a Tim Horton's, and two adjacent tourist trap restaurants. What really upset me was when a woman fell on her face and must have cracked something and two building security guards strolled by, seemingly looking for something but did absolutely nothing to assist the woman lying there and after briefly stopping walked by.

Queen's Quay Terminal though feel a little touristy... but it is a neat place to hang out, browse around the shops and daydreaming looking at Lake Ontario during the Hot Days of Summer! Great choices of beverages... you can either have a Tim Horton Ice Capp or Ice Cream or a Pint on the Waterfront Patio or a Well Crafted Cocktail lounging at one of those comfy loungers or have some dim sum or fast food at the food court! Or go cheap and just bring an empty water bottle and fill up at one of the water fountains inside the complex!! There is also the Museum for Inuit Arts, the glossy white deco does make one feel refreshing when the sun is beaming on us! Free admission on the day I was there! Why I ended up here? As usual waiting for my Yelp Drinking Buddy who not sure when he would make his appearance... oh he never wear a watch??

Great place to watch Canada Day Fireworks. We took some pictures last year. http://interestingpe.blogspot.ca/2012/05/2011-canada-day-fireworks-in-toronto.html

We stopped here to do a little shopping around during a walk along the harbour. The building is lovely, and there was a nice variety of places to stop and grab a bite. We chose to grab sandwiches from Sobey's, which is a fantastic grocery store right in the Terminal. We followed that up with chocolate from nearby Chocolates and Creams (delicious!) and picked up a couple souvenirs from The Canadian Naturalist. The view right along the water was gorgeous!
