Calgary-based restaurant with daily happy hour to open in Toronto & it's hiring
Toronto’s Ossington strip is getting a brand new addition sometime next year, adding to an already beloved list of dining establishments on the street. Calgary-based restaurant Central is making its way over to Toronto and will be opening its first location in the province. Oh, and they’re hiring.
The chain known for its daily happy hour deals and brunch specials has found a spot at 114 Ossington Avenue. For those familiar with the area, it is where the now-shuttered Venezia Bakery called home for over four decades.
“We are over the moon to share some good trouble coming soon at Central Restaurants,” shared the chain on LinkedIn.
