Keg Mansion

Keg Mansion is a restaurant housed in a Victorian-era manor containing 26 rooms adorned with intricate architectural details including a turret and decorative brass accents. The spaces retain original period elements like fireplaces and ornamental finishes that showcase how the wealthy lived during the 1800s.

The mansion was built in 1867 for Arthur McMaster and passed to the Massey family in 1882. It later served as a broadcast station and art space before its transition to hospitality.

The building represents an era when wealthy families lined Jarvis Street with grand homes during the 1800s. Visitors can still sense the social standing that shaped this neighborhood during its most prosperous period.

The restaurant is located in Toronto's downtown core and easily accessible from nearby attractions. Visitors should expect narrow staircases and varied ceiling heights since the space is adapted from a historic residential building.

The building housed one of Toronto's earliest radio stations during the 1920s and played a role in the city's broadcast history. This overlooked period reveals how historic structures can transform completely before finding new purposes.
