If you live in downtown Toronto, you've probably been waiting for The Well to open its doors. Well, friend, the time has finally come for you to get excited because they've got a lot to offer.

The Well in downtown Toronto is a mixed-use development with condos, offices, retail spaces and a public square that gives off a European vibe with its architecture and pedestrian-forward plan.

Even though things might not look open when passing by The Well, a spokesperson told Narcity that, "As far as an opening, many parts of The Well are already open, and more retailers will continue to open through 2024."

However, on November 17, "There will be a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the commercial, residential and retail openings and to kick off the project's first year of holiday programming."

The opening of some of the city's most delicious eats can be expected to make a debut at the highly anticipated project and has already begun looking like a secret foodie haven.

A slice of NYC is now in the heart to Toronto and they’ve got one of the best pizzas in town! Check it out and let me know your thoughts 🍕 #princestpizza #pizza #torontopizza #pizzalover #pizzatiktok #princestreetpizza #nycpizzareview #torontoreview

She said Prince St. Pizza was one of her favourite pies in the city and would recommend ordering The Sunset Square. It has the perfect balance between sweet and savoury with every bite and the cheese was super stringy.

Other places like Indigo, Adidas and BMO Financial Group are now open.

So, take your bestie on an adventure to explore The Well with a pizza slice in one hand and a coffee from De Mello in the other.
