BlogTO's 'Toronto Bars, Pubs & Late Night Eats' app for nightlife is a handy guide for what to do in the city at night. The app serves as a comprehensive guide to where to find the best entertainment when it gets dark, including everything from nightclubs to karaoke bars.
Each hot spot is profiled, complete with information like where to find it, what beer is on tap and whether or not the place has live music or a patio. If you need to get in touch with any of these places, the app is set up so that it's as easy as pressing a button to make a call. If you're totally overwhelmed with choices, the app also has a handy feature—shake your phone to get a random suggestion.
