About this place Woody's / Sailor

Woody's and Sailor are two connected gay bars at 467 Church Street, in the middle of Toronto's Church-Wellesley Village. Woody's opened in 1989. It is the big room, with several bar areas, screens, drag and DJ nights, and the long-running Best Chest contest. Sailor is the smaller bar next door in the same building. The crowd is mostly gay men of all ages, plus whoever is doing a Church Street bar crawl. It opens at 16:00 on weekdays and at noon at weekends. Closing is 02:00 on most nights and 03:00 on Friday and Saturday, which are the busiest nights. Pride weekend in late June is very crowded, with lines on the street.

A monumental part of Church St Village. The center of all the action and totally worth it. I feel Church Street was developed around this venue which is a staple and has been center of it all for decades!
