Annex Social

What is Annex Social? Occupying a lively stretch of Bathurst Street in the Annex, Annex Social is a neighborhood sports bar and social house blending California-Mexican cooking with unpretentious pub culture. The interior balances bar-side seating and dart boards with relaxed dining tables, flanked by a street-facing front setup and a heated backyard patio that draws regulars in all seasons. It serves as an easygoing local gathering place designed equally for catching the game, tackling trivia, or lingering over pints.

Annex Social Menu & What to Order The kitchen upgrades traditional taproom food with bright southwestern flavours and house-crafted hot sauces ranging from dill pickle to strawberry chile de árbol. Anchor your order with the Green Chile Cheese Burger, or branch out into inventive mashups like the Mushroom & Pork Dumpling Pizza and the Sweet Heat pie. Weekend brunch draws crowds for the Nashville Style Chicken and Waffles and Chorizo Benedict, best paired with their Spicy Dill Pickle Caesar or a punchy house pineapple whiskey cocktail.

Know Before You Go Annex Social runs primarily on a walk-in policy, meaning peak game days and warm weekend nights will see the back patio fill up swiftly. The room sits just north of Bathurst station, easily reached via the 7 Bathurst bus or a quick walk from Dupont, with metered street parking on adjacent residential avenues. Doors open at 3:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday, shifting to 1:00 p.m. on Fridays and 10:00 a.m. for weekend brunch.
