‘Roncy’ is a village. Roncesvalles Avenue itself is one small strip lined with charming coffee shops, used bookstores and quaint restaurants and bars. Located in Toronto’s West End, a stone’s throw from the glorious High Park, it’s a family-friendly, effortlessly charming neighborhood. Despite how much Roncesvalles has to offer, it’s somewhat removed from the hustle and bustle of city life and so never feels too crowded.
