The Painted Lady
We're NOT YOUR TYPICAL NEIGHBOUHOOd HAUNT, BUT we are the FRIENDLY, neighbourly HOME OF ALL KINDS OF ROCK'NROLL, SOUL, DEEP-FRIED FUNK, Motown, ALL-MANNER OF PUNK, OUTLAW COUNTRY, new wave, bLUES, WESTERN SWING, BLUE-JAZZ-GRASS, big band-swing jazz, NEW ORLEANS BRASS FUNK, SKA, REGGAE, BEBOP, BLUES, TRANCE, HIPHOP, HEAVY METAL, GLAM, GARAGE, SURF-ROCK, ROCKABILLY, POP as in Popular Music throughout the ages... mostly through the 1900's and 2000's, and yes... DISCO (like anything else, some of it has serious, serious hooks), AMERICANA/ROOTS/ALT-COUNTRY and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN... And we always like hearing and being turned onto great, new music... We don't pander to any one. We truly love all kinds of music, art, and culture. Music and art are a way of life here, and have been for all our lives. We play and programme what strikes our fancy. There's a place for it all.
The Painted Lady Review By Jenn C.: Toronto, Ontario
I have lived (and partied) in Toronto for many a year now and this place is my Friday night go-to. Sure it's crowded and the bathrooms are a complete joke but what it lacks in creature comforts it makes up for in personality. This place is just teeming with "personality". The door man is just lovely and has absolutely no attitude about 'capacity' or anything like that. Feel free to chat him up if you're ever stranded outside. The bartenders are the best! I have left my wallet/credit card/entire identity at this bar more than once (I know, I'm so that girl) and have always had it returned with no questions asked. The drink pours are generous and if you are into reggae, this is a great place to dance it up. The tiny dance floor sure is intimate but the DJ and his posse (always hanging around him on-stage) are friendly and like to get people in the crowd going. You can always find a few people who've had that one drink too many and serve as excellent entertainment and not to mention that they have a burlesque dancer on the bar! And not some vegas surreal looking gal, she's a real girl with real hips who knows how to shake 'em! Beware that you can not use debit or credit to pay as it's a cash only type of place. Other than that, go ahead and give it a gander.
