SoSo joins the list of restaurants in the city that have succumbed to the pressures of COVID-19, including The Office Pub which has made the difficult decision to say good-bye to Toronto following lease issues with its landlord.

More news is planned to come out through their collaboration with Grape Crush wine.

“While we are going to miss this little community we’ve built, we are also excited to share with you what we have been fermenting over the last few months with @grapecrush.wine.”

The new bar prides itself in offering wines “you can’t find at the LCBO,” which they claim are natural, and biodynamic.
