The Wheat Sheaf
The Wheat Sheaf Tavern has been a fixture of Toronto, at the intersection of King Street West and Bathurst for more than 150 years. A couple of establishments have laid claim to the title of oldest taverm in Toronto, however the Wheat Sheaf has a pretty strong case, having opened up in 1849 under their current moniker. That's 18 years before Confederation, at a time when tunnels connected the building to Fort York so that soldiers could drop by for a quick pint. The tunnels are long gone, but the beer taps still flow, and the current proprietors have made sure to keep an old-timey feel to the premises. The building is located on the corner of Bathurst and King Street West
