About this space

The Opium Bar is located in the Little Portugal area. The bar's space is set up with dim, purple lighting and hanging lanterns to replicate the ambiance of the surreptitious Chinese opium dens from the 19th century.

It has a tendency to fill up on the weekend and is a great spot for a cool, yet low-key weekday dinner.

Usually booked for

Engagement Party

Typically for 50-60 guests and costs about C$5,500.

"It is an excellent choice for hosting an engagement party."
