The Glamorous Summerhill LCBO

-

Why is This LCBO So Talked About?

If you’ve ever been inside the Summerhill LCBO, you might have thought it looked a little different from the rest. You’d be correct! From 1915 to 1930, the building acted as the Canadian Pacific Railway North Toronto Station. 

Summerhill’s LCBO location is also a big hit with the community because it includes a tasting bar for sampling premium spirits and wines, as well as a vast Vintages section that offers a curated selection.

Antiquing While Shopping for Booze

Visitors can shop among history as the location features countless restored remnants from the previous century. Brass ticket windows, ticket drawers, and wooden booths are just some of the antiquities visitors can find!

That One Room…Tell Me About It!

The Great Hall, arguably the most spectacular room in the building, boasts 44-foot high ceilings with light fixtures originally designed to mimic train wheels. 

For all those local historians, custom posters can be found throughout the store displaying blueprints, period photographs, and detailed commentaries of the station during its time in operation. 

Whether it’s to shop from one of Canada’s largest liquor stores, or take in some of Toronto’s urban history, visit the Summerhill LCBO at 10 Scrivener Square.
