For those who may not know, the city of Toledo was named after a small town outside of Madrid, Spain. The Toledo Spain Plaza stands as a reminder of that link. This is a grassy area off Collingwood Avenue which actually resembles more of a median than a plaza. The plaza is located at the edge of the Historic West End neighborhood and is an excellent place for a leisurely walk or even a picnic.

Friendly and slightly trendy is the best way to describe The Distillery. This is one of Toledo's favorite places to hang out, enjoy some tasty pub grub and enjoy music. The nightlife venue always features an impressive lineup of excellent cover bands, but on the nights when there is no live music, there is an excellent selection of 80s, 90s and current music being expertly spun by the in-house DJs. The Distillery's casual atmosphere, great drink selection and young crowd make this a great place to hang out any night of the week.
