Such a cool bar in such a cool area. Stumbled across it when we were deciding where to go while walking on Ossington. Awesome location, right across the street from Baby Huey's but an even better vibe. Super airy and trendy with awesome music and even better drinks. We didn't want to leave! Definitely will be back again.

Came to check out this new bar with some friends on their opening night this past weekend and we were not disappointed. I was really impressed with how unique and well-made their drinks were, plus the service at the bar was fantastic. The music was also great and the artwork along the walls added a cool touch. The bar gives off a retro type vibe which is really refreshing. Will definitely be back!

New and trendy bar in an up and coming place. If you are looking for a authentic Toronto experience, I highly suggest going to Oak Island. You will get a sense of the young spirit Toronto has, and will be greeted by many cool features such as their tropical sounds in the bathroom and their wide variety of drinks. I thoroughly enjoyed everything this bar has to offer!

Super cool mix of kinda retro and minimal decor, while keeping an inviting atmosphere. The bartenders know their stuff--a good mix fun fruity cocktails, and more classic ones. Loved drinking their (delicious) gimlet out of the glass cooler bottle--sounds silly but the bottle allowed for some solid hand maneuverability, which comes in handy when you're dancin. They also have some excellent beers on tap!

I loved Oak Island! The vibe of this bar is very unique for Toronto, the vintage decor is beautiful. Plus the drinks were delicious and fantastic service! Definitely will be back next time I'm in the city.

Went on Saturday for the opening night and felt like I was on a Wes Anderson film set. If you are like me and appreciate attention to detail, Oak Island is a must see! Or, if you are also like me and enjoy delicious cocktails, tranquil bathrooms and sweet disco, Oak Island is a must see! Thank me later.

Definitely my new go-to spot on Ossington! Really cool vibes, great music, and the bathrooms are very insta-worthy. Try the pisco punch, or literally any one of the coolers! They're delicious and very well-crafted. Will definitely be back!

Came in on Oak Island's opening night and the experience was ace. I ordered a Tom Collins which had the perfect amount of gin. Then I also tried their own "brand" of a pre-made cocktail concoction which was served in a vintage soda pop bottle! It was very flavorful. Overall, I'm happy to see that this is Ossington's newest bar fixture and will definitely be back.

Easily my new go-to spot on Ossington
From the art pieces along the walls, to the drinks, to the music you can tell it's put together purposefully and sets the kind of vibe Ossington go-ers are looking for. Had a super friendly experience with the bar staff while trying out a couple of their cocktails. Order a Paper Plane or one of their coolers if you find yourself here, you can thank me later!

Really nice lounge with great music, its only small inside when it is packed with people during the night and that would happen anywhere. The vibe is just right along with the drink prices and private bathrooms. I will defiantly go back!

When opening a bar in Toronto, the creator must face the dreaded question: "How can I be different?" Oak Island has brought quality drinks, decor, and aesthetic to the Ossington strip. For those seeking a premium bar with great food and drinks, Oak Island is perfect for you.

Amazing addition to the ossington strip! Stopped by for the opening this weekend and was not disappointed. Great decor, drinks, music and crowd. I found my new favourite hangout!
Colin DiCarlo
really cool space and concept! house made sodas and spirit pairings, it plays well as a discovery venue, get ready to try something new and get creative, because the guys here definitely are!

This place is sweet. Great, lowkey, minimalist atmosphere. Great music and dj. Nice bartenders.
Ashton Lewis
Such a sick vibe, honestly nothing like it on the strip. Highly recommended! Try the Pisco Punch it is life.
Christian Tyler
Incredible place, I loved the nature sounds in the bathrooms. Such a cool touch!

lame music. lame staff.
supper snobby door. Just play a spotify list instead of the wack djs you had on saturday. Don't bother. Jack Astor's is more legit.

Went here for my birthday, to enjoy Party and Bullshit. Did not realize Oak Island was so small. Only about 4 of my friends got in, and the rest of us waited for an hour outside - while watching friends of the owners, and friends of the people already celebrating their birthdays inside - get in. Bouncer said many times, they were over capacity - yet the owners let their friends in, over and over and over again. Bouncer said he couldn't let us in, esp as the owners were giving instructions on who to let in, and who not to let in. This is not a place to spend a night in any way shape or form. We were told to get there early, we were there before 12 am - but clearly they were not letting anyone in after 11:15 anyway. Really poor service, really a lot of favoritism and really not a place to have events at if you can't handle a good sized capacity. Won't be going back here anytime soon.

Favouritism at its finest. They only let in certain individuals approximately 50 (while I was there) even after they continuously told the people outside in the line they had been over capacity since 1030 but continuously let people in over and over. They ruined my friends birthday so we left.
