Holts Cafe

What is Holts Cafe? Perched elegantly above Bloor Street West in The Annex, Holts Cafe offers a refined, contemporary dining experience celebrating Canadian cuisine with a subtle European inflection. This upscale spot is known for its focus on sustainability, quality-driven ingredients, and a commitment to locality and seasonality. Guests can choose between a chic bar/lounge area or a sophisticated main dining room, all within a calming and modern atmosphere that makes it ideal for special occasions.

Holts Cafe Menu & What to Order Holts Cafe’s menu proudly features a blend of beloved classics and innovative dishes, emphasizing fresh, seasonal ingredients. Don't miss the 'AVOCADO TOAST' with its vibrant tomato jam, tangy onions, and perfectly poached egg, or the indulgent 'KFC CHICKEN' for a spicy kick of gochujang. For a lighter yet satisfying option, the 'TUNA NIÇOISE' offers seared rare albacore tuna with a medley of fresh vegetables and a bright lemon dressing, while the 'BLT SALAD' elevates a classic with crisp pancetta and fried green tomato. The menu expertly caters to brunch, lunch, and an expanded dinner service at select locations.
