Sweaty Betty's
Sweaty Betty's is a small, independently owned dive bar at 13 Ossington Avenue, just north of Queen Street West. It opened in 2004 and was one of the first bars on the Ossington strip. The room has mismatched furniture, a lounge-style back room and a patio. It hosts drag shows and other events, which it announces on Instagram. It is queer-owned and operates on a walk-in basis.
