The neighbourhood
The neighbourhood
Welcome To
Queen & Dovercourt
Dotted with European eateries, artisanal shops and eclectic art galleries, Toronto’s Little Portugal neighbourhood is nothing if not authentic. Stroll along Dundas Street West to better understand the area’s rich Portuguese roots – whether that means grabbing a Pasteis de Nata (the country’s iconic custard tart) at Caldense Bakery or browsing the shelves at Saudade, a lifestyle shop that sells handmade goods from Portugal. While the neighbourhood’s European culture is evident, it’s not all-encompassing. A number of trendy restaurants and bars (like Enotceo Sociale, Antler Kitchen & Bar, The Lockhart) are also starting to call the district home. You could say it’s old world charm meets modern-day style.
