Travel tips
If you want to use public transit, plan on a roughly 1.2–1.3 km walk to Farmington Ave bus stops (Garden St, High St, or Epicure Shopping Center). With dedicated free off-street parking, having a car can make it easier to reach restaurants farther out (such as Wood-n-Tap - Farmington and Don Juan’s).
