The bar/pub/club scene is pretty much all in the same area though, a little south of there. If you find your way to a main bar or club (Inside Night Club, Yuk Yuk's Comedy, Sizzle, the Friar and the Firkin) you've found your way to the district. www.clubcrawlers.com should have some more info. http://www.where.ca/toronto/category...gory_id~16.htm http://www.toronto.com/bars_clubs
A lot of the clubs are "older" crowds. Stay away from Mink...I went there on my 19th birthday, and the average age was like 25.

Great Thai food. Stay off church street after dark, although not that close.

lowsound | lol. I can definitely attest to that. My friend Jamie and I were trying to find the Courthouse, a new jazz club, on the night it opened last year. We blitzed a couple of pipe bowls while wandering the area -- spooky business!

lowsound | You must have never been to Front and Jarvis, College and Spadina, Lansdowne and Queen, etc etc etc.
Why so many Churches on Queen street and so many Queens on Church street?

Really enjoyed the city (except trying to find cheap parking is like pulling teeth), but asides from that it was great.
