Gladstone House

What is Gladstone House? Anchoring 1214 Queen Street West at Gladstone Avenue in Little Portugal, Gladstone House is a revitalized Victorian landmark transformed into an art-filled boutique hotel and neighbourhood dining hub. The ground floor integrates the relaxed Gladstone Bistro, the energetic Cassette lounge and venue, and a vibrant street-facing summer patio. Seating spans cozy banquettes, communal tables surrounded by rotating local art installations, and a handsome bar counter.

Gladstone House Menu & What to Order The kitchen delivers all-day comfort food with Mediterranean touches and plenty of plant-forward adaptability. Weekend brunch draws regulars for the Shakshuka with poached eggs and za'atar, the dulce de leche-drizzled Brioche French Toast, and the Rancheros Tostada. For dinner or late bites, the double-patty Gladstone Burger with Marie Rose sauce and the beef tartare pair seamlessly with signature cocktails like the gin-forward Streetcar Queen or the spiced Soundcheck Margarita.

Know Before You Go Reservations for dinner and weekend brunch can be booked online through OpenTable, though the patio and bistro bar remain walk-in friendly for casual drop-ins. Expect lively crowds during weekend brunch hours and midweek specials like half-priced Wine Wednesdays. The 501 Queen streetcar drops you right at the front doors, which is your best bet given limited street parking along Queen West.
