Verified Reviews of Funeral Venues in Toronto, ON
This was the perfect venue for us, when planning a celebration of life for my Father-in-law. We wanted something casual, that would allow for people to mingle and talk without feeling cramped. The space was large enough to accommodate the crowd that we had and had a great mix of standing room and tables. The AV set-up (Screen, projector, microphone) was simple and effective, food (and of course drinks) were all great, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Dealing with Margaret was super easy, and she made the planning of this event very streamlined. I would definitely recommend this venue.
