The Drake Hotel

I’ve had great memories with The Seán Schau, my live variety show at the Drake Hotel Underground. It’s where I met the orb who is my co-host. It is a glowing Orb. You’d be impressed if you saw it.

Located on Queen St. W. amongst an array of trendy shops and hip art galleries, the Drake is home away from home for the creatively inclined. Complete with 19 crash pads, a European-influenced lounge, raw sushi bar, neighbourhood cafe, licensed rooftop patio, restaurant and last, but not least -- The Underground, a lower level entertainment space designed to work with, not against its mix of performing artists, visual artists and live musicians...

It was an unique and amazing experience. The rooms are very stylish and closeby to all the shops on Queen Street.

What’s great about the Drake is that you have options -- depending on your mood, you can sit in a quiet corner to chat, have a drink upstairs on the patio, or dance the night away downstairs in the Underground.

nice place to eat with good portions.. not too big or small

I love the damask/rorschach inkblot pattern on the walls of the lounge.

there is lots of comfy seating and the bar is big enough that you don't have to fight your way to the front to get served.

up to date seasonal menu... great service and atmosphere...

OK I think I had my all time favourite dessert today at the Drake. It was a little bit of all things delicious. A shot of pure chocolate, a cup of creme brulee, a chocolate tart, a lemon tart and to end it off a nut wrapped chocolate icecream bar. Does it get better than this?

Great food and even better atmosphere
