Spade Bar & Lounge

What is Spade Bar & Lounge? Spade Bar & Lounge is a Scarborough nightlife spot on McNicoll Avenue that fuses Chinese and Caribbean cooking in a way that actually makes sense for this part of the city. The crowd skews local, the music rotates through reggae, R&B, hip hop, and Top 40, and the kitchen keeps plates coming late into the night. Karaoke nights and live entertainment give it energy that most suburban bars can't match.

Spade Bar & Lounge Menu & What to Order The real draw is the Chinese-Caribbean fusion menu. The jerk chicken with rice and peas is a staple—properly seasoned with real heat. Curry goat is rich and tender. On the Chinese side, the pepper shrimp is the move, and Singapore noodles deliver solid wok flavour. Codfish fritters make a great starter to share. Late-night orders tend toward the poutine and rum punch, the latter being the house signature drink that most people order at least twice.
