Good Luck General Store – 149 Durham St

One of our favourite little treasures downtown! They’re stocked in everything from plants, skincare, and tarot cards. If you’re looking for a gift this is your first stop! Even if you’re looking for nothing at all their rotating stock of curiosities will ensure you find something special. We love that they feature lots of local and Canadian brands on their shelves (and petting Cauli when you visit is a bonus)!

The shop will be hosting: Danielle Conti @ 1PM & Helena Cheu @ 3PM

Guilty Pleasures Bakeshop + Bar – 82 Cedar Street

If you’re looking for decadent treats this is the place to be! Known for their stunning custom cakes and cupcakes this little bakery also offers a full coffee bar and house-made soups in a sophisticated atmosphere. Still need to satisfy that sweet tooth? They’re always serving up different goodies, from butter tarts, cookies, and their famous Pete de Soeur (made by owner Justine’s mémère).

The shop will be hosting: The Recordables @ 1PM & Chris Newman 2-5PM

The Laughing Buddha – 194 Elgin St

One of our favourite spots to grab a bite and a few cocktails! This gem right on the Elgin strip always has an eclectic rotating menu of great eats from apps, sandwiches, to weekly pizza features. Their menu features lots of different options from vegan, gluten-free, too loaded with cheese – there’s something for everyone! They boast a stellar beer list from domestics to hard to find imports and always have new and creative cocktail features on the go!

This venue will be hosting: Jon & Geoff @ 12PM, Sudbury Guitar Trio @ 1PM, Mélanie & Beth @ 2PM, Sylvain & Melissa @ 3PM, and Jubliation @ 4PM

The Townehouse Tavern – 206 Elgin St

How could this venue not be on the list for the Symphony Crawl?! The Townehouse has been a staple in live music in Sudbury for over 30 years! Come on in and make yourself at home, at the Townehouse you’re family. Aside from the music they’re known for serving up the best burgers in town from beef, beet & hemp and even portobello. For a limited time, you can give their new chicken and cauliflower tacos a whirl too, we highly recommend!

This venue will be hosting: Duo46 @ 12PM, Dr. Tom’s Travelling Medicine Show 1-3PM, and Jacinthe Brisebois @ 3PM
