New bars were plentiful in Toronto this past year, offering new venues for drinking, dancing, snacking and socializing . From initimate venues to take in live music to late-night destinations for cocktails and nibbles, there's something for everyone on this list.

Here are my picks for the top new bars in Toronto by neighbourhood.

Burdockis a bar, restaurant, music venue and microbrewery where house brews like the Bloor Lager and West Coast Pilsner are the way to go.

布罗克顿村
Lawn games accompanied by draught cocktails are the main attraction atTrack & Field Bar. Try the Tame Impala, a tequila, cucumber and ginger beer concoction on tap.

CABBAGETOWN
Kanpaiis a Tawainese snack bar where the kitchen puts out plates of deep fried chicken and the bar deals in sake, beer, wine and rotating cocktails on tap.
