What is Pot Time Hot Pot? Taking over a sprawling space at 45 Carlton Street near Church, Pot Time Hot Pot delivers an energetic, all-you-can-eat dining format to the Downtown Yonge corridor. The bright, modern room is equipped with sleek built-in induction burners across sturdy booths and large group tables built for communal grazing. It is an unpretentious, high-capacity gathering place that hums with energy, drawing local downtowners and students from nearby campuses.

Pot Time Hot Pot Menu & What to Order The meal starts by selecting individual or shared broth bases, with the peppercorn-laced Sichuan mala and slow-simmered herbal bone broth standing out as crowd favourites alongside vegetarian-friendly tomato and mushroom stocks. Diners then stack their tables with trays of thinly sliced beef brisket, rolled lamb, peeled tiger prawns, house-made fish paste, and crisp enoki mushrooms. The real action happens at the self-serve sauce station, where you can blend sesame paste, crushed garlic, chili oil, and scallions to dial in your dip, washing it all down with sweet iced tea or cold soymilk.

Know Before You Go While reservations can be phoned in for larger groups, peak dinner hours on Friday and Saturday typically mean waiting for a table as a walk-in. The restaurant is situated just steps from College Station and the 506 Carlton streetcar, making public transit far more practical than hunting for scarce street parking. Kitchen service runs continuously from lunch through late night seven days a week.
