"Butchers, artisan bakers, antique shops and coffee shops define this stretch of Ossington Avenue where the appealingly worn Union awaits. There is a horseshoe-shaped bar at the entrance, but head back to the rustic brick-faced dining room. If you're up for a bit of theater, nab a seat at the counter to catch the action.Chef/owner Teo Paul once worked on a farm and his menu is a love letter to the region's seasons and its local suppliers. Lunch is perfect for a quick bite, while dinner is more of an event. Dishes are rustic with a refined edge and pack a flavorful punch.. The same effort and care goes into an omelette as steak frites, and if servers are busy, expect the chef himself to serve your plate, along with an explanation of what's on it." - Michelin Inspector

Visitors to Union can expect a luxurious and inviting atmosphere, showcased in the dark woods and leather seating, with a menu that is sure to please any brunch enthusiast. On a recent visit, Union delivered quite the gastronomic experience with a wide selection of fresh flavours. The Pork Shoulder Hash, stewed Apple Pancakes, Union Breakfast Sandwich, a side of Fries and the delectable Sticky Ginger Cake, were all cooked to perfection by the chefs.

We made a brunch reservation here on a holiday, they were open and very busy. Every table and the front and back bars were full. This restaurant supplies ingredients from local businesses, which is nice to see. Servers are very nice and welcoming We got the union salad (main) and the swiss train ride (basically a croque madame), which came with a side salad. It came with rosti, a crispy fried and shredded potato. The Union salad was light but had generous pieces of bacon on top, and the swiss train ride was savoury and decadent. Washrooms are downstairs

This was my first time at the Sprint Spot on Ossington. It was a good experience. The portions were good, and the menu was great. However, street parking and paid lot parking could be a bit tricky as the area gets busy. Overall, it was a good place with great service and a great menu. I would recommend it and go back again.

Our favorite brunch spot in Toronto. Been here a couple of time and Union never failed us. The food has been consistently great, especially the sausages, bread and smoked meats. Their sticky pudding with vanilla ice cream is sublime. The menu changes regularly depending on what's fresh. Reservation highly recommended.

I like the vibe in their dining room. The place felt cozy and also that you're dining somewhere that's a nice environment to eat out at. I also liked the fresco painting on the wall above the seating. I tried their curry bratwurst sausage with fries and fried egg. This was a tasty and filling dish. I just wish they leaned into the curry flavour a bit more taste-wise. I get the vertical plating looks nice, but it also helps with the dining experience to have enough space on the plate to actually appreciate each ingredient separately as well as together. The dish was stacked high and there wasn't a lot of space to move things around on the plate without making a mess. I also had their pancakes, which was nice. It had a healthier and more robust taste to it, I think with buckwheat compared to the typical white pancake flour. I like the stewed apples on top as well as the maple syrup.

We had one of our best meals at Union. Everything we tried was SO good—very fresh, high-quality food made with care and full of flavor. The portions are generous, and the food has that really ‘gourmand’ feel to it. The menu changes daily based on the freshest local ingredients, so there’s always something new and exciting to try. 100% worth a visit!! We can’t wait to go back 😊

Such an amazing restaurant. Worthy of a Michelin Guide. Food is fantastic and the menu is ever changing. Staff are very friendly. Open kitchen where you can see the magic done in front of you. Bar seating available. There is also seating at the kitchen. Clean facility. Clean Washrooms. Music is played at a moderate level. No credit card surcharge. WiFi is hit or miss. Prices are very high for the portions.

Came here for my birthday, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The service was excellent, and the food was just as impressive. The fries were spot-on (because, let’s be real, not every place gets them right). The beet and apple salad stole the show, fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. And the hot ginger sticky cake? Pure perfection. Definitely a spot worth revisiting.

Really dependable brunch spot, all items were well seasoned, had good quantity for individual plates and taste was on point. We enjoyed our meal with coffee and freshly squeezed juices and it was a perfect brunch on all counts. I am interested to try this spot for dinner as well, more to come after that.
