The Dakota Tavern is a beloved Toronto listening room at 249 Ossington Avenue, a cozy basement hideaway where the city’s roots, alt-country, bluegrass and Americana scenes thrive. Fans come for intimate concerts that put the songs, stories and musicianship front and center. With a close-up stage, warm acoustics and a room that feels like a classic roadhouse, the venue turns touring sets, album release nights and local residencies into memorable, one-of-a-kind shows.
Expect friendly staff, a welcoming crowd and a well-curated bar featuring local beer and a solid whiskey lineup. The calendar ranges from foot-stomping string bands to twangy singer-songwriters and genre-bending folk, plus the famed weekend Bluegrass Brunch that introduces newcomers to the scene in true Dakota fashion. Situated along the lively Ossington strip near Queen West, it is easy to plan dinner before the show or keep the night going afterward, though the room’s small capacity means the best gigs often sell out early.
