SUNNYSIDE PAVILION

Rating: NNNNN


VIBE Not really a club, but it gets rented as a venue for so many parties during the warmer months that it might as well be. Incidentally, there was a club on the site some 50 years ago, but it was torn down long ago. A historic walled-in garden, Sunnyside is a gorgeous outdoor venue used for all kinds of private functions. It’s a favourite spot, in particular, for RNB Productions’ deep house events. Understandably, the vibe varies greatly from event to event.

VALUE Since it’s a sought-after rental venue, you shouldn’t expect a low cover charge unless it’s a corporate event. Drink prices are high considering the limited selection and disposable plastic cups.

BATHROOMS While there are some proper washrooms, they’re pretty much what you’d find in a public park. For larger events, the dreaded porta-potties have sometimes been used.

LINE UPS It’s a large venue, but there can still be lineups at peak times for popular events.
