There are quite a few restaurants to choose from. Some good places to grab a bite are Gerrard Pizza and Yanagi Sushi. Venture a little further for a meal at Lucy Ethiopian Kitchen, Rendez-Vous or Sora Ethiopian Restaurant. If you love coffee, you're not too far from Tim Hortons located at 1630 Danforth Avenue. For groceries there is Plank Road Market which is not far. Entertainment options nearby include The Shore Leave and Linsmore Tavern. You are a 6-minute walk from great parks like Felstead Park, Merrill Dog Park and Greenwood Park.

Without a car, you can get around rather easily. The closest transit stop is a Bus Stop (DANFORTH AVE. AT COXWELL AVE.) and is only steps away, but there is also a Subway stop, COXWELL STATION - EASTBOUND PLATFORM, a short walk connecting you to the TTC. It also has (Bus) route 322 Coxwell Night Bus, and (Bus) route 70 O'connor nearby. If you need to get on the highway often, Don Valley Parkway and Leaside Bdge has both on and off ramps and is within a few minutes drive.
