Loose Moose, also called the Antler Room, is a beloved Toronto pub and restaurant on Front Street West, steps from the St. Lawrence Market and the financial district. The interior is instantly memorable: hundreds of antlers and moose-themed decor cover the walls, creating a rustic, cabin-like feel in the heart of the city. The bar offers a wide selection of Canadian and imported beers, plus comfort food like burgers, poutine, and wings. The vibe is casual and energetic, especially during hockey games or after-work hours, when the place fills with locals and tourists alike. A large patio out front is popular in warmer months. What makes Loose Moose distinctive is its unapologetic embrace of Canadian kitsch, think taxidermy, plaid, and a giant moose head, without feeling gimmicky. It's a fun, unpretentious spot to grab a drink and soak in Toronto's convivial pub culture.
