Terrible and unsafe.Went for New Years Eve, which was supposed to be a ticketed event. Purchased 6 tickets on club crawlers before and got to the club around 11. Line was on wrongside and wasted 20 minutes after they made everyone shift to the other side. Bought tickets thinking that it would be better than a place which was open access and could get crowded. But in line they were letting mostly everyone in (with and without tickets) and the place was filled to the point that you couldn't move freely upstairs. People were packed so tightly that it was definitely a fire/stampede risk environment and certain men took advantage of the zero personal space situation (grabbing and touching my female friends and I inappropriately). Coat check was full so we had to carry our jackets and we wasted time after midnight waiting for drinks downstairs that we never got because they ran out of glasses. Bought two shots of rum at the other bar upstairs for $15 and left asap when it reached the most crowded that you couldn't even dance or breathe.Overall, it was a horrible first experience at bar 244 and hated the hour we spent there. They were still letting people in as we left. Extremely unsafe environment and do not recommend women to go here, especially for NYE.

Drinks are overpriced (I suspect they add tip into the price). I don't think that's legal. Was told bartender holds employee tips. Owner very rude. Dirty environment. Definitely underage drinking going on.Smells nice. If you like febreezed over terminal patient diapers

the bar is nice and everything, my only problem is with this bartender, a guy in a pony tail and a big hipster beard. I have never met someone so rude like this, I was asking him about this drink the seltzer and its price, and he just responded very arrogantly and rudely saying I don't know, and he started asking me in an aggressive way if i wanted this drink. And then I asked him how are you doing, to which he answered very rudely and aggressively saying I prefer if you don't ask me how am i doing"!!!!!!!!Everyone in the bar last night from the customers where saying that this man is very rude

Misleading advertising on instagram. They pitch it as no cover" but bouncers ask everyone for 10 dollars on the way in. They used to have a person collecting cover before and have guestlist. Now it's just bouncers collecting

Beware of this place— super expensive drinks, the DJs/music/sound system are probably the worst in the city, muffled and loud. Terrible food we almost couldn’t pay for. And it doesn’t get better for the staff either— we were informed the owner has been stealing tips from the workers and has refused to pay some people upwards of a thousand dollars in gratuities!! Unheard of, awful thing to do to your staff as they rely on this money to pay bills, get to work and to eat. Shame on you.

Music not really attractive, we asked for bottle service than took long to be served despite the place been almost empty, the only staff smiling and attentive was the security manager at the door and girl at the coat rack, the guy from the bar than got us the bottle drop the bill an hr after we sat because than the system" doesn't allow him to keep it open

DO NOT recommended this establishment!!! Visiting from Vancouver , we came across this bar that had a sign listing “free cover entrance all night”. However, cover fees were charged and pocketed by the bouncers. No duty of care was provided to the customer from all levels of staff. In addition, after requesting to speak to the Manager, no explanation was given and to make matters worse , we were walked out on by her.Poor service and uncleanliness environment. As you can tell from the other reviews , we would not return and highly encourage others to avoid this bar.

I went to Bar 244 on yesterday (jan7) with some friends and I had an amazing time. The DJ was absolutely perfect with his music, the crowd, all though there wasn’t too many people there were really nice n cool. The bartenders were really friendly and made you feel welcome. Special shout-out to the bartender Costa. She was such a down to earth person and because of our interaction, I’d come back to bar 244 ! Thanks for a great night

One of the worst bars in Toronto. To attract customers they put out a sign saying free cover all night and then security charges you and pockets the money. False advertisement. Stay away

Wouldn’t recommend this spot, uncomfortable vibe, insanely loud and muffled music, bouncers pick and choose who they’re taking money from at the door, staff are put off by simple asks. This place is in dire need of a revamp.
