A peaceful and family-orientated community with upscale subdivisions

Welcome to Princess-Rosethorn

There is plenty to see and do in Princess-Rosethorn whether you are looking for family-friendly activities, solo, or adult only.

Princess-Rosethorn is one of the first subdivision communities in Etobicoke and is a prime example of post-WWII architecture and design.

Local Lifestyle 

Because Princess-Rosethorn is made up of subdivisions, you’ll find this to be a family-friendly community. Princess-Rosethorn has wonderful public transport as well as great walkability to enjoy all the community has to offer. You may find yourself exploring nearby parks or some of the local eateries. You may also notice most of the streets and services are royally named. Princess-Rosethorn is unique in that it is technically split into two areas, Princess Anne and Princess Margaret. Most find that Princess-Rosethorn is laid back and relaxed with a large appeal to families. 

 

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping 

Since Princess-Rosethorn is a residential area, there are no commercial centres in the neighbourhood. There are plenty of great restaurants and fun shops minutes away though. Mai Bistro, for example, is an Asian restaurant with a Latin flare created by one of the top ten chefs in the city. Small tapas include green mango with tiger shrimp and large tapas include lemongrass pork with Asian slaw. 

 

At Bramble Gastropub you will find a warm atmosphere and classic, comfort food. Their brunch is popular for the smoked duck breast benedict and house-made ricotta. Be sure you save room for their Eton Mess, which is brandied blackberries with burnt marshmallow over cake with chantilly cream and meringue. Cano also has a popular brunch. They are a family-owned Italian restaurant specializing in seafood dishes, such as their grilled Mediterranean sea bass with orange beurre blanc. 

 

The closest shopping mall is the Humbertown Shopping Centre, where you find locally owned boutiques, a bookstore, a grocery store, and services. The largest area mall is the Woodbine Mall and Fantasy Fair. There you will find big box stores, like Best Buy, along with upscale boutiques, toy stores, gift shops, and more. 

 

Things to Do

Princess-Rosethorn is located between the coveted The Kingsway and west Toronto giving you exclusive access to all the amenities of both.

There are plenty of community parks in the area for Princess-Rosethorn residents to enjoy, including Princess Anastasia Park, Rosethorn Park with a tennis court and playground, and Lloyd Manor Park. One of the favourite places in the summer, for kids and adults alike, is the Thorncrest Village Pool
