Brunswick House on Bloor St. set to close for good March 31

The Brunswick House at 481 Bloor St West will close at the end of March after more than 140 years in business, the owners of the business have announced. It appears that Boston Pizza, a chain of pizza outlets based in Western Canada, may take the location.  The news came on a Facebook posting: “It is with great pride and sorrow that I announce the legendary Brunswick House will be closing on March 31 after 140 years of memory making history,” the post reads. “Everything comes to an end and like an undefeated champion, the Brunny must now retire on top and more beautiful and better than ever.”  CP24 said in a story that In November, the Harbord Village Residents’ Association announced that the owner of the building the bar has called home since 1876 had terminated the operator’s lease. “As of Dec. 31 the Brunswick House will remain only on a month-by-month basis until a new tenant is found,” the post on the association’s website said.
