Good Behaviour

What is Good Behaviour? Founded by hospitality veterans Michael Lam and Eric Chow, Good Behaviour brings fine-dining technique to classic comfort fare at 335 Queen Street West. The narrow storefront operates as an energetic counter-service hub with bright white finishes and a handful of window ledge stools for quick perching. It functions as a hybrid small-batch custard ice cream parlour and a gourmet submarine sandwich counter.

Good Behaviour Menu & What to Order The hot sub roster is led by the smoked beef brisket sub, layered with melted smoked gouda, caramelized onions, pickled banana peppers, and a rich horseradish beef-fat vinaigrette on a toasted sesame bun. The spicy meatball sub—combining veal, pork, and beef with provolone and basil pesto mayo—and the thyme-roasted portobello mushroom sub provide equally robust alternatives, with gluten-free rolls available on request. For dessert, do not leave without a scoop of the Torta Della Nonna custard ice cream, loaded with lemon ricotta, pine nuts, and shortbread crumble.

Know Before You Go Good Behaviour operates entirely on walk-ins with no table reservations, meaning peak lunch hours and warm summer evenings see quick-moving queues snaking onto the sidewalk. Sub sandwiches become available starting at 11:00 a.m. on weekdays and noon on weekends, while ice cream scoops, pints, and baked goods are available all day. Street parking on Queen West is virtually non-existent, making the 501 Queen streetcar your best transit route.
