Host Your Next Function at Varnish on King
A little underground gem with plenty of room to celebrate
After over a decade (and then some) tucked away in our heritage basement on King Street, Varnish on King has perfected the art of a good time. It’s the kind of place where stories are shared, glasses are raised, and the night always goes a little later than planned.
Varnish doesn’t do ordinary. We bring character, flavour, and a touch of rebellion to every event – from Bacon & Whiskey Flights to tailored menus and full-venue takeovers. Whether it’s a birthday, team night, or something worth celebrating, we’ll make it one to remember.
Bring your people, we’ll bring the whiskey – and together, we’ll make it one for the books.
