This gift-and-tchotchke outpost of the Drake Hotel has just the right mix of quirky and kitschy treasures. Campy cabin meets cool city on the shelves lined with walking maps, Mounties paraphernalia and cult Scandinavian items like Cheap Monday denim and Fjällräven Kånken’s 1970s-style backpacks. Poke around for hipster magazines and indie rock colouring books plus Marie Antoinette action figures, self-adhesive moustaches and Rubik’s Cube peppermills. (ALSO: 1011 YONGE ST, 416 966 0553)
