Centennial Park Picnic area 8 — Attraction in Toronto

EDITED REVIEW POST-EVENT: the washrooms were open and clean! The area was clean! The staff was very accommodating. And the view was stunning. We had 180 guests and we were able to place 15 eight-foot tables, 150 rental chairs, utilized the gazebo for the buffet with chaffing dishes, etc. This is THEE best picnic area in centennial park.
